The new Monster 1200 R roadster boasts a 160-hp Testastretta 11° Dual-Spark 1198cc V-twin engine featuring much of the same electronic rider aid wizardry as the flagship Panigale series. Numerous upgrades from the standard Monsters include fully adjustable Öhlins suspension at both ends and top-shelf Brembo front brake setup from the Panigale to keep all that power under control, with the styling also receiving a bit of a makeover to make the 1200 R's looks match its sportier intentions.

Ducati has unveiled its updated "Supermid" Panigale model, now dubbed the 959 Panigale. The revisions include a larger engine with some changes to meet strict Euro 4 emissions standards, along with very slight chassis changes. Theincreased displacement comes courtesy of a slightly longer stroke, up from 57.2mm to 60.8mm; bore remains at 100mm. The stroke increase necessitated a redesigned crankshaft with a new lubrication system and new connecting rods, and DLC coating is used on the piston pins. Compression ratio remains unchanged at 12.5:1. The increased displacement helps boost output to 157 horsepower at 10,500 rpm, up from 148 hp; torque also increases, from 73 foot-pounds to 79.2 foot-pounds.

Ducati has updated the three models in its Hypermotard lineup—the base Hypermotard, the SP and the Hyperstrada—with a larger, 937cc engine that meets stringent Euro 4 emissions standards. The new engine is another iteration of the company's Testastretta 11-degree twin-cylinder motor, with a maximum of 113 horsepower (slightly up from the previous model's 110 hp) and a 10 percent increase in torque. Updates include an increased compression ratio (from 12.8:1 to 13.1:1), and a redesigned 2-into-1 exhaust system, in addition to the increased displacement.

Based on the Scrambler Full Throttle, the Flat Track Pro features a lowered tapered handlebar, rider-only seat, side-mounted number plate, and nose fairing. Similar to the Full Throttle, the Flat Track Pro will also come with a Termignoni slip-on exhaust and roll on alloy wheels. In the transformation from Full Throttle to Flat Track Pro, Ducati has dipped into its own accessories catalog, going on to add machined footrests, rear view mirrors, a sprocket cover, and front brake reservoir cap.

Ducati has introduced the Scrambler Sixty2, a 399cc-version of its already popular Scrambler that the manufacturer describes with words like "easy," "light," and "accessible." The Sixty2's 399cc L-twin engine with 72mm bore and 49mm stroke, is derived directly from the engine out of the original Scrambler, but with 41 hp at 8,750 rpm and 25.3 ft-lb. of torque at 7,750 rpm (compared to the 803's 75 hp at 8250 rpm and 50 lb.-ft. of torque at 5750 rpm). As with the larger Scrambler engine, the Sixty2's air-cooled mill will utilize a 50mm throttle body and single injector per cylinder, while offering user-friendly 7,500 mile service intervals.
