Ducati has unveiled the new Monster 1200 R at the 2015 Frankfurt International Motor Show. The global unveiling was done at the Volkswagen Group Night a day prior to the official press day. This doesn’t really come as a surprise as Ducati is now under German carmaker Audi which is part of the Volkswagen group. The Ducati Monster 1200R is the most powerful production naked motorcycle to be manufactured by the Italian two-wheeler manufacturer. The 1,200cc liquid-cooled, twin-cylinder motor generates 165PS of peak power and 131Nm of maximum torque. In comparison to the Ducati Monster 1200 S, the new R version churns out 10 per cent more power and 5.5 per cent higher torque. The powerplant is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The Ducati Monster 1200 R rides on Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tyres with a beefy 200/55 R17 size tyre at the back and 120/70 R17 at front.
