- Ducati's new Monster 796 aims to be novice friendly, but enough of a buzz for more experienced riders. To see if it's really the best of both worlds, we test it against the two extremes of monsterdom - the easy-going 696 and rorty 1100.

So essentially the 696 is fast, the 796 is faster and the 1100 is the fastest. Geniuses.
Looks like this was recorded on a toaster
Both the 696 and 796 are now being replaced with the 821, which makes more power than the old 1100. So the new 'bottom of the range' Monster is more powerful than the old 'top of the range' model.
Admittedly, sticking it in Urban mode, will take you back down to about the 696 level of power.
Weighs more
If you are going to make videos, PLEASE learn how to edit the audio. I spent most of my time changing the volume up and down.
So much so that I didn't pay attention to what was going on, on the screen and I don't know any more now that I did when I first opened the clip.
Hey thanks for replying. :) I am not fussed about speed, just a comfy bike for riding to work. Really like the look of the Monster and Triple.
@aluisious I see your point...not being able to test pilot a bike can be frustrating, although, it's very common at dealers. Best thing to do is wait 'till the dealership hosts a "demo day" where they have a whole bunch of demo bikes ready to roll for people to mess around with. I went on a demo ride today at the Ducati dealer and got to test out the Monster 796. Others were testing Streetfighters, Monster 1100's Multistradas, and even a few Diavels out there.
Ive had my 696 for 2 years now....and I want another Duc to put right next to it. Maybe a good used 848 might pop up with the 899 out.
@motorcyclenewsdotcom Where can we find the complete test then?
Get a go on a street triple. Sweet music from the induction. Goes fast enough. A good honest naked. If you want more power the Speed triple is for you.
Which one is best for track riding?
General feeling is if you already have a 696 its pointless to upgrade to a 796 as there is not enough of a jump up in performance etc, its a waste of money. Go up to the 1100. Or go for the older Ducati Monster M900.
what is the difference between the ducati monster 696 and the 1098? is one for beginners and the other is for more experienced bikers?
yes they can, you can take away the back bit, it just looks cooler with it on
hey MCN I personally like the format of these short reviews, if I wanted a full blown account I'd get a magazine or go to a website. I don't want to watch 10 minute videos of some guy rambling on about brakes and suspension and what else, and I don't think too many people would like that either.
Don't listen to the internet douchebag haters, motorcyclenews....I've been a fan since you've been posting videos, and your quality continues to improve. Keep taking honest looks at your product, and the upward trend will continue. Great resource, thanks for putting it out here.
@baneshield The 1100 is the only one with a colored stripe through the middle. The 796 has more color schemes with a red frame compared to the 696 which has more black frames, but they both have one color scheme in common (red body, black frame). Don't know about other visible differences.
One the worst and the most pointless review for MCN. we expect much from such a refine magazine.
Is that Arai helmet from Fast Freddie?
so the bike in the middle of the range is the middle of the road bike who saw that coming not me thats for sure, im still gonna but a 796
Honestly, is there any real appreciable difference in power between the 696 and 796? What is the difference in the bikes besides displacement? I'm just left scratching my head, wondering what the point of the 796 is. Quick, fun video though. I enjoy the short and dirty review format for things like this
What about the price differences "real world" whats the average up keep. Which one is more reliable.
La moto más linda del momento; mi favorita: Ducati Monster 1100 S, blanca perla con Termignonis...
where is that diner style cafe?
i want a milkshake now
That statement at the end that says judge the sort of riding you do and pick the one that suits you best...No shit Sherlock!
Would love to get a motor bike one day. :) I am between a Ducati Monster 696 and a Triumph Street Triple.
Did you end up with either?
I like to know more ,, things like fuel consumption and price , and cost of ownership
Was this filmed with a potato?
what is the top speed on the 696?
130mph
@nbennettjones o_0 i looked and looked and was like ........ how could you have something like that on the tube.. thnx for analyzing that in more detail for me.
@letsride84
They can, with another seat! I think u get both the 1 passenger and the 2 passenger seat when u buy a monster.
Nice bikes, I bet they are good to wheelie. Check out this wheelie

@RidersInTheStorm1 Exactly. And a lot of these tests are like that. :/
Monsters are very good low down but run out of puff quickly, have poor steering lock and Dealer servicing is stupidly expensive and its also a lottery as to whether your local dealer is a good or a bad one. Tho do servicing yourself and costs are much more acceptable as the general service parts are on par with yamaha, honda etc.
Street Triple is proven and better all rounder, better to live with day-to-day for sure.
@Metalmiltia PMSL thats what I thought.... :D
Subtitles in English will be appreciated next time...
@motorcyclenewsdotcom
I think it was a decent effort mate don't let the haters get you down. I do some bike videos myself and will be doing a lot more when I get my Canon 60D to augment the SX20 IS.
I rode the 796 here:
Double Feature Riverside Moto GP Party - Cashman Bechtel Big Dig
Cheers.
what's with the noise?
Im austrian and got no problems understanding him - whats the problem?
Why not mention the cost of the bikes?
That said...the Duc is expensive to maintain. If that is a problem, get a Japanese bike. They're fine motorcycles and are cheaper to maintain.Think SV650 for a first bike.
please invest in a good mic. I couldn't understand all that was being said in the diner.. way too much background noise, and the audio while recording the motorcycles was terrible.
Dear god, get some proper cans for these bikes and make them sound like they should
Ill take 2012 696!
So predictable and pointless so-called review...
are they bonkers?
so 696 is no fun outside town?
so from what your saying is there's not really any need for the 696
@rides1naked
yes, hard to understand. especially if your first language isn't english.
ok-ish presentation, would have preferred a michael neeves review...he would've given it a proper shake down
i came to that conclusion without riding the bikes.
|I can't be bothered watching it again but I am pretty sure the noob said he wanted the 1100 (no surprise there, as he probably would have felt a bit lame saying the 696 was best for him). Coming to an Accident and Emergency Department near you soon.......
The Ducati has ABS available, the Street Triple does not. I looked at both, but really wanted ABS. I recommend it, especially for new riders. I have over 300k km on bikes and ABS was near the top of my priority list. How long do you want to ride? Other than that, the Triumph is a great bike.
The Triple behaves more like a 4 than a twin. Look at the powerband - the Ducati's power is more where I use the motor, the Triple makes it up high. I'd rather have a bike with grunt than a screamer.
@shaaf786 That's cool thanks. I fuckin hate these ads youtube has been forcing us to watch.
i want the 796 but in my country it cost 21k USD
Such a bullshit, I have 696 and I beat pretty much ally the average bikes and cars. Goes 200 easily.
200 kms?
no offense i love all of your videos but i couldn't hear a damn thing that was said in that restaurant.
What do you Sir think of the 696 vs 796? Response: murmur murmur murmur ,,,, ramble ramble ramble
@IcePickSnowmanzzzz It says Love Music, Hate Racism.
@Metalmiltia lmao
Please don’t make any more videos.
Hätte man sich fast denken können..
What a horrible review and suggestion. 696 is not a beginner bike and 1100 is a highway bike period. It's insanely powerful.
Oh the 1100 has more power, the 696 has less but is easier round town..and the 796 is in the middle.. ?:O
NO SHIT!
Oh and fix the microstutter in your voice
stop driving on the wrong side of the road!
1100 wins.
HAHAHAHA.....everone finds this review totally useless as it states the obvious facts.
ok sure somebody said this before but the guy with the glasses has on his shirt love music racism and im sure a bunch of other bullshit on there as well. why? i did not know you could be racist on television
That is so pointless!
