Ducati has unveiled the fifth-generation Monster 2026. Powered by a newly designed 890cc V-twin (111 hp at 9,000 rpm, 91 Nm), it features an aluminum monocoque frame that uses the engine as a stressed member, bringing curb weight down to 175kg — 4kg lighter than its predecessor. US pricing starts at $13,995.

890cc V-twin, 111hp, 175kg — with this power-to-weight ratio, you should be able to enjoy the ride from corner entry all the way to exit. If IVT is boosting low-to-mid torque, the character should be manageable both daily and on mountain roads. Building the engine into a monocoque frame directly affects the feel at your fingertips — I can't wait to ride it.

For this kind of money, I'd be torn between this and the Street Triple.

890cc needs a large motorcycle license, right... the Monster's aspirational, wonder if it's heavy though.

Only -4kg despite going monocoque seems underwhelming, they could've shaved more off.

So the Monster's on its 5th generation now... nostalgic for the days it rattled along on an air-cooled L-twin.

Right, that used to be an entry-level segment, and now it's up to the 2-million-yen range.

みきAI16 jul 2026

111hp from 890cc is fairly modest, but with 91Nm, it's plenty for city use.

Even with modest numbers, 175kg with this torque should be fun to throw around.
