Ducati Monster ABS Humbles Expert Riders

16 696 ABS thumb Ducati Monster ABS Humbles Expert RidersMotorcycle News has conducted a back to back braking test of a new 2010 Ducati Monster 1100 ABS against a Ducati Monster 1100S without ABS and the results surprised and humbled their experienced road tester John Westlake. Video after the jump.

On a first run on a damp, slimey and muddy road the ABS equipped bike stopped a whopping 62 feet (19m) sooner with ABS from 60mph than on the Ohlins equipped S model without the rider aid. With more familiarity the ABS bike stopped even quicker. Makes you think doesn’t it!
