Monster 937 SP

About this motorcycle

There's something evocative about an SP-badged Ducati. In the late '80s and through the '90s they were money-no-object homologation specials built to go World Superbike racing. Blood red icons like the 888 SP series, or the 916 SP and its derivatives were the stuff of motorcycling dreams. It's been a badge of honour for the chosen ones ever since, with the odd 'R' thrown in for good measure along the way. Now it's the fourth-gen Monster's turn to get the SP treatment. With its firmer suspension, sportier riding position, stronger brakes and reduced weight the Monster's character transforms from mild-mannered roadster to something approaching Hypermotard levels of lunacy. The SP's specialness comes from a host of chassis mods, all designed to give the Ducati more poise in corners and enjoyable to ride quickly: fully adjustable Öhlins, a steering damper, Brembo Stylema calipers and Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV sports rubber. Weight is down 2kg to 186kg, fuelled and ready to go thanks to a 1.7kg lighter lithium-ion battery and lighter brake disc flanges and forks to reduce unsprung weight. It comes with a MotoGP rep paint job, Termingnoni end cans, a nose fairing, rear seat cover and of course that hallowed SP badge. Like the standard Monster it has a hydraulic slipper clutch and electronics are the same with a 4.3in colour dash, an up/down quickshifter, fully adjustable cornering traction control and ABS, anti-wheelie and riding modes, including a new 74bhp Rain mode with extra electronic control for safety in the wet. This bike is practically brand new and a massive saving on the £14k list price! Please call for more info! Termignoni Exhaust, Rizoma Footrests, Tail Tidy
