Prós e contras em comparação
Yamaha XSR900 2016

A XSR900 combina o desempenho de uma streetfighter desportiva com o visual de uma naked retro agradável e com acabamentos limpos. Ao fazê-lo, os japoneses fazem uso da sua própria história, que pode ser encontrada em conjunto e sem lacunas no arquivo da agência de design que trabalha para a Yamaha há 60 anos. Adopta as virtudes da MT-09 e corrigiu algumas das suas fraquezas. A sua condução é mais harmoniosa, mais controlada e, se desejado, mais descontraída. Apenas o conforto, e portanto o piloto, sofre com o chassis apertado em estradas más. É preciso ser um pouco sensível quando se trata de uma neo-clássica.
Ducati Monster SP 2023

A versão SP é claramente a mais cara, mas também claramente a melhor Ducati Monster. Tudo se encaixa perfeitamente, porque é tipicamente desportiva da Ducati. A suspensão Öhlins totalmente ajustável (incluindo a forquilha em ouro sueco!) cumpre perfeitamente o seu objetivo, o sistema de travagem Brembo Stylema agarra com veemência mas não de forma desagradável e a posição do assento, com uma inclinação ligeiramente mais para a frente, é desportiva mas ainda assim confortável. Até o motor se enquadra muito bem no conceito de moto naked de gama média muito desportiva - quer ser acelerado e fornece a maior potência na parte superior. Se está à procura de um defeito na Monster SP, é provavelmente a trepidação do V2 a baixas rotações, mas os verdadeiros fãs do motor V2 de 90° não ficarão ofendidos com isso. O preço também não é um problema, uma vez que os italianos pagam um preço bastante elevado pelo desempenho da versão SP.
