This evening I picked my Monster up from Ducati Seattle after its 6000 mile service. It was running super strong. With the engine fully warmed up, I found myself at a lonely stop sign on a lonely street. I accelerated away from the stop sign, and the torque of the motor applied sufficient force to lift the front wheel off the ground for a short stretch. Rest assured, I was alarmed an this anomalous behavior, but found it necessary to repeat the process at the next stop sign to ensure that this dangerous performance quirk could be diagnosed the next time I had it at the dealer.
