As per tradition, the Ducati Monster is offered in an S version that features Ohlins suspension, Brembo brakes and specific finishes, which considerably increase the price. In terms of mechanics, few changes: the bike is always equipped with the 1198cc water-cooled twin-cylinder. Since 2017, the Monster 1200S has also received some tweaks that have increased its sportiness. After the disappearance of the R version, the S remains the most radical configuration of the Monsters.
