Ducati in recent years, the finish on the Ducati 696 Monster is very high even for a 'budget' model. The engine hasn't changed too much and the old motor took a thrashing in its stride. Keep the bike regularly serviced and you shouldn’t have many problems. The Ducati 696 Monster’s clutch is feather light and comes as a slipper clutch as standard. The Brembo radial brakes up front are powerful but still progressive and ideal for novice riders. However, only the shock is adjustable and we’d expect fully adjustable suspension on a bike at this level.
