Compared to the Monster 620, which it replaces, the 695 is a leap forward in performance. The potent new L-twin delivers much greater horsepower and torque – the highest output per cc of any Ducati air-cooled engine. But just as important, the 695's engine produces smoother and more fluid power, while still making every twist of the throttle exciting.

The Monster 695 introduces new graphics and colour treatments in step with its increased performance. A matte black colour combined with red, long associated with Ducati Corse, has been selectively applied to the bike.

The engine of the Monster 695 is its most important technical advancement, and much more than an additional 75 cc's of displacement might indicate. The new L-twin delivers new levels of horsepower and torque but also, just as important, smoother and more fluid power. The 63 hp of the 620 has been increased to 73 hp for the 695, the highest output per cubic centimetre of all Ducati air-cooled engines.

The rider's environment on the Monster 695 is one of comfort, control and confidence. With the lowest seat height of any Ducati, riders can plant both feet securely on the ground. The rider's position is more upright as hands reach to a set of raised handlebars that are a bit wider for increased comfort and control. The footpegs strike a comfortable balance between a rearward 'sport' position and a forward 'laid-back' sport cruiser position. All in all, a rider feels confident and in control aboard a Monster 695.

The 695 takes full advantage of the confidence inspiring road-holding and stability contribution of the Ducati trellis frame design. The trellis frame is light, rigid and beautiful, and distinctively Ducati. Quality Marzocchi 43 mm inverted forks and a Sachs rear shock, both crafted in Italy, smooth out the bumps and add their share of poise to the 695's road manners.
