The Non-Trellis Monster

So let’s dive into this brand new Ducati Monster leak. According to sources, this upcoming Ducati Monster was actually spotted in Germany earlier this year with an all-new alloy frame. – Yep, no trellis frame! However, we couldn’t get a clear look at the bike. Well, it all changes with this latest rendering that has been circulating the internet. Thanks to this latest leak, the design sketch showcases the upcoming Monster in detail. Looking at the sketch, the first thing that surprises us is the alloy frame. It looks like Ducati might ditch the steel trellis frame for an all-new alloy frame. If everything goes according to this leak, the upcoming Ducati monster would be the first Monster to feature an alloy frame (non-trellis). Speaking of the new frame, there are a few benefits that come with it. One, it keeps the overall look of the bike clean and aggressive. Secondly, as it is lighter than the steel trellis frame, it would have obvious performance benefits.

As for additional details on the powertrain, suspension and braking, we would have to wait for Ducati to pull the cover off this bike. Judging from the latest leak, it looks like Ducati could be aiming for the competitive middleweight market to go head to head with KTM’s 790 Duke, Triumph’s Street Triple and Yamaha’s MT-09.
