Designed for the most experienced riders who expect the very best in technology, performance and componentry. The Monster S4R S Testastretta gains its lofty status with road-going application of our World Superbike Championship experience. It sets new standards for the Monster family of street fighter motorcycles.
For unparalleled power, road holding and sheer excitement, all in a uniquely styled motorcycle that is distinctly Ducati, the Monster S4R S is the choice for experienced enthusiasts.
The liquid-cooled, 4-valve per cylinder, 998 Testastretta L-Twin engine features a 100 mm bore and short stroke of 63.5 mm to limit average piston speed and allow increased rpm. The result is a staggering 130 hp and 76.6 lb-ft of brute torque.
SMOOTH POWER DELIVERY, UNPARALLELED COMPONENTS
Testastretta technology allows a reduced angle between the intake and exhaust valves resulting in a clean, compact combustion chamber that is highly efficient.
The optimised combustion environment and linear flame front inside the specially designed heads, combined with cutting-edge electronic engine control technology, guarantees precise and optimal combustion throughout the rev range.
The chassis components are unparalleled. Fully adjustable Öhlins suspension front and rear complemented by super lightweight Y-shaped 5-spoke wheels ensure outstanding handling, while 320 mm Brembo twin discs on the front have radial-mounted calipers with four pistons and four pads per caliper to provide incredible race-worthy stopping power.
And to make this Monster look and feel even more exciting, ultra-light carbon fibre has been employed for the silencer cover, exhaust heat guard, front mudguard, radiator covers and cam belt covers.
