Ducati Monster 900 S
The Ducati Monster 900 S has a top speed of 210 km/h, produces 73 hp and weighs 193 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
Ducati Monster 900 S diperkenalkan pada tahun 1998 sebagai varian spesifikasi lebih tinggi dari Monster 900 asli, yang memulai debutnya pada tahun 1993 sebagai sepeda telanjang revolusioner yang dirancang oleh Miguel Galluzzi. Versi 'S' menampilkan suspensi Öhlins yang ditingkatkan, roda Marchesini, dan rem Brembo Gold Series, menjadikannya penawaran premium dalam jajaran Monster. Ini menjadi ikon karena menggabungkan gaya mentah, minimalis dengan kinerja asli, membantu menentukan segmen sepeda motor telanjang modern dan memperkuat reputasi Ducati di luar dunia superbike.

Apa yang Harus Diketahui Pembeli
Desmo Valve Service
The desmodromic valve system requires service every 6,000–7,500 miles and is labor-intensive, often costing $600–$1,000+. Always verify service history before buying.
Oil & Coolant Watch
The air-cooled 904cc L-twin is known for oil leaks around the clutch cover and cylinder head gaskets on high-mileage examples. Inspect these areas carefully during pre-purchase inspection.
Strong Collector Value
The Monster 900S holds its value well as a sought-after 1990s Italian classic, with clean low-mileage examples appreciating steadily. It's considered one of the most iconic naked bikes ever made.
Generasi & Spesifikasi berdasarkan Tahun
V-twin berpendingin udara 904cc asli yang diturunkan dari Pantah, rangka teralis tubular, lengan ayun satu sisi, fairing minimal.
"Mentah, cantik, temperamental — telanjang asli dilakukan dengan benar."
900S mengajari saya bahwa sepeda motor dapat memiliki kepribadian yang sebenarnya - yang ini keras kepala, menuntut, dan kadang-kadang menyebalkan, yang entah bagaimana membuat Anda lebih menyukainya. L-twin yang berasal dari Pantah itu menarik keras dari 3.500 rpm dengan soundtrack mekanis yang tidak ditiru oleh sepeda modern: gemerincang katup, kulit kayu, dentuman knalpot semuanya berlapis menjadi sesuatu yang terasa hidup di bawah Anda. Lengan ayun satu sisi dan rangka teralis membuat setiap layanan berhenti menjadi momen galeri, tetapi jangan menipu diri sendiri - karburasinya mendengki dalam cuaca dingin, suspensi lembut untuk apa pun yang bersemangat, dan panas yang meresap di lalu lintas akan membuat kaki kanan Anda menembus celana jeans Anda. Saya menempuh jarak 14.000 mil pada satu selama dua tahun dan tidak pernah berhenti menyadarinya; itu juga tidak pernah berhenti mengingatkan saya bahwa itu dibangun untuk gairah, bukan kenyamanan.

Kekurangan
Pengiriman bahan bakar yang direvisi, instrumentasi yang diperbarui, penyegaran kosmetik kecil, peningkatan karburasi pada mesin 904cc yang dikarburasi.
"Mentah, cantik, tidak praktis — persis seperti yang Anda daftarkan."
Monster 900 S Gen 2 menganggur dengan potongan kentang yang masih menarik perhatian saat bahan bakar berhenti, dan begitu Anda bergulir, kembar Desmo 904cc itu menarik dengan keras dari 3.000 rpm dengan urgensi mekanis yang tidak dapat dipalsukan oleh sepeda modern. Tweak karburasi Ducati benar-benar membantu - start dingin bukanlah ritual, dan titik datar sekitar 4.500 rpm yang mengganggu karbohidrat sebelumnya sebagian besar hilang, meskipun 'sebagian besar' melakukan pekerjaan nyata dalam kalimat itu. Dengan berat 185 kg terasa lebih ringan dari yang ditunjukkan lembar spesifikasi, dapat berkedip dan langsung di jalan belakang, tetapi pengaturan cakram depan tunggal pada trim dasar akan membuat Anda merencanakan titik pengereman Anda seperti pertandingan catur. Hiduplah dengannya setiap hari dan panas menyerap silinder belakang itu di lalu lintas, pita daya sempit yang membutuhkan kerja gearbox konstan di kota-kota, dan jangkauan tangki sekitar 200 km akan menguji komitmen Anda - tetapi tidak ada apa pun tentang sepeda ini yang seharusnya nyaman.

Ulasan Pembeli Bekas
"Buy the right one and you'll never want to sell it."
$4,500-$8,500 usedThe Monster 900S is genuinely one of the most characterful bikes you can buy used, but you need to go in with eyes open. That air-cooled 904cc V-twin is raw, torquey, and sounds absolutely savage — it'll pull hard from 3,000rpm and never let you forget it's Italian. The S model adds Showa forks, a rear monoshock upgrade, and Marchesini wheels, which transform the handling compared to the standard 900. It's genuinely good fun on B-roads. Here's the reality check though: these bikes are old now, and neglected examples are everywhere. Check the bevel service history obsessively — desmo valve clearances are non-negotiable and expensive if skipped. Electrical gremlins, oil weeping from the engine cases, and tired suspension are common on high-mileage examples. Budget at least $500-800 annually for maintenance from a specialist. Find a bike with documented Ducati servicing and you'll have something genuinely special. Find a barn find nightmare and you'll fund someone else's holiday.
