I have one and it's a great little bike, handles very well, I have ridden the mt07 and the cb650f they are all so different, the mt has a lot more instant tourqe but it's light and does not hold the road like the monster, the cb felt heavy and not as powerful as the mt or the ducati, but super smooth and planted and the gear box on the Honda is so smooth, the monster does not like the low revs it comes out to play after 4thou, I also have the termi pipe and sounds insane and loves to pop on the down shift, only bad thing about the monster is the bloody gear box, and no fuel gage, otherwise absoulotly great bike

Great video. I have just got my learners and had just about settled on a far different bike, more a cruiser, a Honda rebel cmx 500. This has now thrown a spanner in the works lol. Can I ask how tall you are? I am 172cm and don’t really want to be on my tippy toes when stoped. Would the Ducati be a far better bike than the rebel? Thanks for the info.

I want to get my motorbike license and this is the bike that I have been ogling online ever since I started thinking about doing it lol. I guess I need to learn and then get my license and then might start seeing you on the welly roads

Rode one yesterday.
Was surprised how underwhelming it was. Not a beginner rider, but it takes a bit to wind up. Not sure if it was because it was lams or not.
Heaps different from an mt07

Great review mate, Would be keen to see your opinion of the Yamaha MT-07 and Honda CB650R as your a good tall bugga like me.

Hi, I am looking to get my first bike as a learner. Can't decide between this Ducati Monster 659 or the Yamaha FZ6R. which one would u say is a better choice mechanically and aesthetically? I will be using it on daily basis and riding a lot on highways. OR would you recommend any other bike?

[frankyyam]

hey man does this bike have quickshifter?

[chutneykiwi]

apart from adjusting the handlebars what exhaust would you put on?
