2001 Ducati Monster 900S i.e.

Description

Additional photos are available here for your perusal.

Ducati’s Monster first arrived on the scene in 1993 as the M900. It was famously a parts-bin special, incorporating the frame from the 888 as well as the air-cooled SOHC engine from the 900SS. Even still, the naked styling was a hit with customers. In fact, the Monster was so popular that it accounted for 42% of Ducati’s sales between 1993 and 2000.

And here’s the thing — the model was more than a mere design exercise. On the road, the Monster produced some 67hp and 60lb-ft of torque — more than enough grunt to move its 407-pound heft. Around the bike, you also got top-spec parts such as Brembo brakes, Öhlins suspension, and even a dry clutch.

The features didn’t end there, and neither did the exclusive models. For 2001, Ducati offered the Monster in the “S i.e.” package, an up-spec option that incorporated much of what made the previous years such a hit, while building off the iconic foundation Ducati had created themselves.

This example is VIN: ZDM1RA4N21B006494. The seller purchased this Monster from the original owner in November of 2018.

Maintenance:
The seller states a full desmo service was performed in 2019, which included a replacement of the belts, a valve adjustment, and a flush of the brake and clutch fluids. The seller notes that he has performed yearly oil and filter changes since that time.
