A brave colour combination combined with dedicated

special parts which feature a military inspired

design, transform the Monster 1100 EVO into

the Monster Diesel. The Monster Diesel,

designed by Diesel’s fashion stylists guided

by Diesel founder Renzo Rosso himself

features an eye catching military chic style.

Set against the black treatment of Ducati’s

Trellis frame, wheels, engine covers,

exhaust system and forks, the exclusive

‘Diesel Brave Green matte’ livery delivers a

rugged military vehicle feel, while front brake

callipers are finished in shocking yellow to make

a strong reminder of the model’s performance heritage.

Due in store in July 2012, the new model is priced at £10,690

pre-order now to avoid dissappointment.

Martin Jessopp achieved a record breaking

208mph through the speed trap on the Riders

Motorcycles.com Ducati at the recent North

West 200. After Jessopp’s toe curling top

speed and 2nd row start he finished the race

between the towns of Portrush, Portstewart

and Coleraine in 12th position.

Some of the high performance parts

fitted by our own technicians on Jessopp’s

Ducati 1098 are also available for today’s

superbikes.

Why not ask our team about performance

parts for your very own Ducati - we don’t

recommend you try and beat Jessopp’s top
