In response to the demand for larger capacity bikes, Ducati's chief engineer Fabio Taglioni designed the classic V-twin bevel drive engine first used in the 1971 GT750. Twenty years later the un-faired Monster began as a styling exercise, designed by Miguel Angel Galluzzi, but it took time to convince the management at Ducati to build it. Once launched the model became an immediate success and has gone down in history as the bike that saved Ducati due to its popularity and cheap development costs with over 300, 000 having been produced. The model was eventually made available from 600cc upwards with various engine and chassis permutations.
This 620 Monster has been part of an enthusiast small private collection for the last couple of years. It is the Limited Edition 'Dark' version with a distinctive matt black finish and small nose cone fairing, presented in standard trim apart from a pair of Termignoni exhaust and a carbon fibre front mudguard. The speedo shows a credible 4903 miles supported by 12 old MOT certificates and many receipts documenting its extensive service history. The original book back is supplied with owners manuals, service book, key code card and Datatag pack as well as a current V5C.
