Iconic Beasts: The 2020 Ducati Monster 821 & 821 Stealth

For 2020, the Monster 821 takes its inspiration directly from the original Ducati Monster 900, which first appeared on the scene some 25 years ago. When it arrived, it caused a sensation that redefined what a naked motorcycle could be: it was practical for everyday use, with outstanding sports performance too. The 2020 model pays homage to that glorious model with two models: the 2020 Ducati Monster 821, and the more exclusive Ducati Monster 821 Stealth.

Both share the same iconic Monster architecture. The 821 twins are both built on top of Ducati’s signature trellis frame, featuring the Monster line’s classic muscular tank, aggressive headlight, and upright riding stance.

Underneath, the Monster 821 boasts the latest 821cc 11-degree Testastretta engine, which produces a massive 109 horsepower and 63 lb-ft of peak torque. The power figures are huge, but the grunt is delivered in steady and manageable way, which makes it the perfect choice for newly anointed Ducatisti and experienced hands alike.

The 2020 Ducati Monster 821 is available in Ducati Red, with prices starting from $11,995.

The more exclusive Ducati Monster 821 Stealth variant, which features Bosch 9.1 MP, a quickshifter, LED lighting, a USB power socket, a passenger seat cover and a fly screen, is available in the special Stealth color scheme, with prices starting from $12,895.
