2003 Ducati Monster 620ie

Based on Ducati's Monster 600, the best-selling motorcycle in Italy, the Monster 620i.e. is also considered an icon of contemporary design. Upgraded in 2002, it now includes fuel injection and more power. Like many other 600cc motorcycles, it's better suited for those who have mastered the basic maneuvers of motorcycling. The Ducati's V-twin engine delivers power in an extremely friendly, usable manner, and the striking lattice frame offers excellent handling. Seat height: 30.3 inches.

It's a great bike, but still towards the high end of what I recommend. Plus, high maintenance costs.

On the high side of a beginner sport/standard machine and pricey at that.
