The partnership between Ducati and Diesel began in early 2011, when the Italian denim label announced a sponsorship agreement with the Ducati team in MotoGP. Their relationship has entered a new phase with the unveiling of the special edition “Monster Diesel” motorcycle, based on the Monster 1100 Evo, featuring a two-valve, 100-horsepower engine with wet clutch and ABS. Ducati’s standard trellis frame in black is complemented with “Diesel Brave Green” accents, while bright yellow front brake calipers are a throwback nod to Ducati’s racing heritage. Diesel-branded seat and new exhaust heat shields finish the look.

“The Monster Diesel, and the collection dedicated to it, reflects the “coolness” of this iconic motorcycle and our brand in general,” said Gabriele Del Torchio, President of Ducati Motor Holding. “The collaboration with Diesel, underlines our focus on the style and trends that shape the market and I amdelighted to associate our world with that of fashion and, in particular, with Diesel. Both brands globally represent technology and innovation in pure Italian style.”

Stefano Rosso, Project Leader and son of Diesel founder, added: “When we had the opportunity to work with Ducati, with last year’s MotoGP sponsorship, we discovered a whole world of shared values and common roots. That brought us the desire to create something new together, and we made it in the only way we know: taking the great know-how of both companies and mixing it with passion and creativity. The results are unique products, characterized by a great mix of design and technology.”
