If you’re not familiar with this monster motard, here’s the short version: in the spring of 2005, Ducati designer Pierre Terblanche pitched management on an extreme street fighter — street performance in a new aesthetic package. The concept bike debuted that fall in Milan. Based on the hugely positive reaction the bike received from motorcyclists around the world, company president Federico Minoli green-lighted the project immediately. It has been one of Ducati’s most popular bikes since due to its torque and agility. The model was updated in 2019 as a 950, and MCN called it “the consummate street hooligan.”
It was updated again 2021 so that it could pass Euro5 emissions regulations, and it thankfully gave up no performance despite the changes. Ducati claimed 112 horspeower and 71 lb-ft of torque from the 937cc V-Twin (also used in the Monster and SuperSport 950).
New for 2021 was the RVE ‘Graffiti’ edition. The RVE edition took a livery designed by the Ducati Style Center and uses never-before-seen technology on a Ducati model – ultra-thin waterslide decals. The process is painstaking and time-consuming, which makes sense when you consider there were only 100 total units of this bike slated for distribution in North America in 2021.
This example is VIN: ZDMBAJDT9MB006572. The seller acquired it nine months ago from a local private party.
It is production number #57/100 for the US market.
During his ownership, the seller has covered 350 miles. The odometer shows 7,929 miles.
“Had an early Hypermotard and wanted to try this newer version, plus I was drawn in by the wheels, exhaust and paint job. It’s a great bike, I am just aiming at a more expensive newer Ducati.”
