The Ride by Wire system allows you to obtain
different power level and delivery according to the
selected Riding Mode (Power Mode), but even to
accurately control the engine brake (EBC), thereby
helping to control the rear wheel slipping (DTC).
Ducati Traction Control (DTC)
The Ducati Traction Control system (DTC) supervises
the rear wheel slipping control and settings vary
through eight different levels that are programmed to
offer a different tolerance level to rear wheel slipping.
Each Riding Mode features a pre-set intervention
level.
Level eight indicates system intervention whenever a
slight slipping is detected, while level one is for very
expert riders because it is less sensitive to slipping
and intervention is hence softer.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
The ABS system fitted to the Monster 821 is a safety
system preventing wheel lockup while riding with the
motorcycle not leaning over. The Monster ABS also
features a "cornering" function that widens ABS
functionality to the conditions where the motorcycle
is leaning over, thus preventing wheel lockup and
slipping as much as possible, within the physical
limits allowed by the vehicle and by the road
conditions.
The Monster 821 ABS implements rear wheel lift-up
control in order to ensure not only smaller stopping
distance under braking, but also the best possible
stability.
These functions are divided into 3 different levels,
each associated with a Riding Mode. ABS can be
disabled.
