Delivering 87hp, a dry weight of just 167kg (368lb) and optional ABS, the stylish new Monster 796 returns with the magic of mid-range to the Monster family.

The Monster 796 is fitted with the micro-bikini fairing and single seat coverd as a standard and features, a new seat designed with a comfort-enhancing shape, further accentuated with stylish red stitching.

Additional new features also included a rear sub-frame constructed ready to accept accessory grab-handles designed to provide a confidence-inspiring grip for the passenger, while blending into the natural line of the tail-end.

The riding position has also been revised by reducing the seat height by a full 10mm (compared to the Monster 1100) to 800mm, whilst the handlebars have been raised by 20mm. These changes, together with the redesigned seat shape and have improved posture and increased comfort.
