The Monster 1200 R comes standard with a cross-mounted Öhlins steering damper to further enhance the stability of the bike and to reduce the risk of head shake when riding aggressive. Moreover it adds a plus to the sporty look of the cockpit.
------
"R" chassis
The Monster 1200 features a racing derived frame structure that uses the engine as a stressed element. This structure is composed by a compact Ducati trellis directly fixed to the cylinder heads and by the engine itself; the shock absorber and the rear sub-frame are also connected to the engine.
The Monster 1200 R features a dedicated rear frame, with a lighter structure design; the upper tube is in continuity with the profile of the tank while the lower escapes and hides as soon as possible under the volume of the seat. The passenger foot pegs support, are no longer integrated in one piece with the rider ones, but separate and directly fixed to the sub-frame.
The "R" chassis set-up is raised by 15 mm to achieve a lean angle of 50° that make the bike ready for race track.
-------
The new Monster 1200 R is equipped with a state of the art full-TFT instrument panel. The display's configuration is variable and automatically adapts to variations in environmental light, also changing according to the selected Riding Mode or fully selectable by the rider. There are three configurations, different in background style, information displayed, and display layout: CORE view is preset for the URBAN riding mode: only the most essential riding information is displayed; FULL view, preset for the TOURING riding mode, provides the same layout as CORE with more information displayed; and finally TRACK view is preset for the SPORT riding mode, having crucial information more immediately visible such as an rpm bar graph with a the same sporty layout as that of the 1299 Panigale.
Monster 1200 R features a gear indicator in dash.
--------
Riding Mode
The new Monster incorporates the very latest innovative Ducati technologies, including the famous Ducati branded Riding Modes. The three Riding Modes (URBAN, TOURING, SPORT) are enabled by combining class-leading technologies such as: Ride-by-Wire (RbW), Ducati Traction Control (DTC), multi-calibration 9MP ABS and the graphics on the instrument panel. The rider can change the character of the bike by selecting from the left-hand switch gear - even while riding - among three different pre-set configurations (Riding Modes) that best adapt to the riding style or riding conditions. The Riding Modes make it possible to instantly modify the power delivered by the engine (RbW), the activation levels of DTC and ABS, and the graphics on the instrument panel.
The Riding Modes are factory pre-set in each of the three parameters, but can be individually customized and saved to suit the rider. A "default"option is available to easily return all settings to factory pre-sets.

E.S. Slc I love this bike. I had it until last Aug. it got caught in flood water and was totaled by the insurance company. The power is great. The heat management is much better than the Panigale. It is the best Monster. The R is worth it, as the riding position is much more aggressive than the S or the regular Monster.

DUCATI SCREWED ME! I purchased a brand new Monster 1200S from Ducati/Hudson Valley Motors NY which was unexpectedly defective from the manufacturer. It would shift into neutral unexpectedly even when shifting up from 3rd or 4th. Could not shift into Neutral from a dead stop. I notified them, but was told the bike needed a break in period to the first fluid change and I was unfamiliar with Ducati. So I rode it wearily for 700 mile, had the oil changed and still nothing changed. Ducati kept the bike 4 times, but each time they said it was fixed, it wasn't. Finally, they agreed to repurchase the bike as unrepairable. But for pointing out the flaw, they penalized me by charging me for "damages" which even the service department had not reported all the times I brought it to be fixed only refunding me half of what I paid for their defective bike. DUCATI HAS NO INTEGRITY. IRRATIONAL PRIDE DOES NOT MAKE UP FOR MANUFACTURING INCOMPETENCE. I deserved to have a new bike and it was not my fault the bike was defective from the manufacturer!

That's unfortunate. I hope the dealership made things right.

@@gbarrett123 It was a fight, but eventually they acknowledged the issues and gave me almost a complete refund minus the aftermarket dealer stuff. All my motorcycling life, I had always lived to afford a top-of-the-line Ducati. If they had just owned up right from the beginning, I'd probably have one now. You've got to stand behind your product and own your mistakes. I respect a company which immediately steps up and owns whatever issue arises. I can accept that my problems with the shifter were likely not the usual Ducati experience, although I also know that high end racing engineering can sometimes be finicky.

@@kennethgarcia25 That sounds like a dealer issue. I would write to Ducuti North America. They are usually pretty responsive. It sucks that you had a problem. I will get another once my sons finish college. Two bike destroyed in four years is enough for me.

@@gbarrett123 Believe me I was in touch with Ducati America and Ducati Italy routinely from the beginning after the dealership would routinely be authorized do only do the minimum repair each time.
