2016 Monster 1200R - Dyno Run - Termignoni Slip-on Cans

Our big Ducati gets a go on our comparison dynamometer at JHS Racing. We take a quick look at its curves versus the 'S' and just for curiosity's sake a couple of overlay graphs with rival bikes, the MT-10 and Tuono 1100. It's moderately interesting.

That monster couple is insane !

[@MyPantsAreOhSoFancy]

Wow, it absolutely slays the MT-10.

[@deusvult187]

Which Mapping?

[@rd6057]

My stock 1200 from 2014 has 129.4 hp and 118nm at around 9000rpm. Strange. I guessed the R model had got way more power.

[@alejandroreutor5174]

what the top speed for monster 1200r?

[@triplelucas9343]

Alejandro Reutor easily 260 km/h .
i've the no "S" version (135hp) and i reach easily 250 kmh..

[@phatlakersfan1]

I’ve taken my 2014 regular 1200 to 156 MPH which was the top speed

[@10a3asd]

@@triplelucas9343 My 2015 S model has hit 165mph three times. [gps confirmed] It had a full race exhaust and was all tuned up though.

[@festrada85]

That sound tho

[@samboles8796]

That Tuono’s no slouch 💨

[@lorenzovonmatterhorn2317]

Still freakin nice sound although it has Euro-4 homologations :)

[@rata911]

Thing is, the Termignoni cans aren’t homologated.

I thoght the numbers were impressive until I saw that the torque was in newton meters.... only 81.67 ftlbs peak..... and at revs that virtually no one will use.... except on a motorway/freeway.... not very impressive really but is is just as good as the over-venerated Diavel and at a smaller cost.....

[@pvkjhilk8323]

ducati quoted 175 hp. what is going on here?

[@weed46]

No, ducati quotes 160hp

[@krrrazy]

I am surprised at such a high power loss from 160 HP to 136HP at the rear . a little dissapointing.

[@fastbikes]

160 is claimed power which is always at the crank - this is a rear wheel figure. Rule of thumb when converting crank to wheel figures is around a 15% reduction. Do the maths, and this is nearly bang on correct.

[@GIGABACHI]

That is one bulky and visually heavy exhaust system.........that's why i hate the shotgun(stacked) setup.
Otherwise, good numbers, good sound.

[@dmartin23]

Wow what a lot of crap for such a short sentence

[@LiFEWithAdam]

lol

[@marcomarchiano1827]

The ducati declare 160 hp at crankshaft... it lost 24 hp at the wheel......

[@donovanlewis7142]

There dyno is way off, it makes no sense at all. A 2016 Monster 1200s is rated at 145 HP and gets in the low 130's on a correct good Dyno. Multiple publications and independent dyno on many forums show this. A 1200r is actually in the mid to high 140's HP on a dyno.
