2008 DUCATI MONSTER 695 | miles 10614 | VIN ZDM1RADM48B111541 | $2999 plus tax, doc & licensing
The Monster 695 debuted with the highest output of power per cc of any air-cooled Ducati twin of its time. While it’s got fantastic power, it’s not a high revving animal. The monster is a snappy, sharp and exciting middle-weight that punches well above its weight in fun. The Monster proves itself to be one of the best ways to get yourself into the fanfare of European air-cooled enthusiast vehicles. While its seat-height, broad bars, and price-point (especially used - insane value!) make it a great beginner bike, it's certainly not a bike to be limited to the newer droves of enthusiasts. This is a bike that’s phenomenal for riders of all skill levels and rewards you at each tier of mastery depending on what you ask of it. A motorbike. Nothing more, nothing less. The lore of the desmodromic valves and belts scare many away... But I’m here to tell you that these bikes are easy to work on than you’d believe, simpler and less expensive to maintain than you’ve heard, and a far better bike to ride than most. Come try for yourself.
