Terra Mostro dual sportWe showed you a couple of early photos of the Terra Mostro last year, a Ducati Monster based dual sport motorcycle. The bike is now in production, so if your riding tends to be a bit more adventurous than your sportbike riding friends would like, this might be you.
Long travel suspension, dual sport tires, spark arrester on the pipe, all of the things you would expect of a bike intended to take you on the road less paved. Overland Motorcycles builds the bike based on the Monster 695, Kayaba fork, Brembo brakes and all for $16,950.
The Terra Mostro is a True "50/50" dual sport bike that is nimble enough to be ridden on tight trials, stable enough to hold the throttle open on a Dry Lake bed or sand wash, and smooth enough (ie twin) to enjoy the ride home from Las Vegas to LA on the 15 at the speed limit plus.
It is easy to work on and inexpensive to repair. It is 150 lbs lighter than the GS, more nimble than a Uly, and way more friendly on the street than the KTM twins.
The Terra Mostro can keep an XR in it's sights when the terrain gets rough, and later that night, after a quick wash, you can ride to the local hotspot and be the center of attention.
There are no dealers, just visit their website and if you like what you see, give them a call.:winka:
