Rider Profile

Best ForSuits riders with at least some prior experience, since the punchy L-Twin and sharp chassis reward confident throttle and brake control.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a fun, characterful naked bike for spirited street riding and weekend backroad carving rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe 770mm seat height and moderate 187kg wet weight make it manageable for most body sizes, though the firm suspension and sporty ergonomics suit an active riding posture.
CharacterHas the classic Ducati Monster personality: torquey, characterful, mechanical-feeling, and eager to be flicked through corners with an air-cooled soundtrack.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking long-haul touring comfort, wind protection, or any serious off-road capability.

2013 Ducati Monster 795 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 770mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2013 Ducati Monster 795, with a moderate knee angle of around 115 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
