    Not sure how they are equipped now but I had an '08 standard. I saved the extra $$ over the "S" model and set input up my way. The only thing that sucked on the bike was the Zoke forks. They were terrible on choppy pavement and rail crossings. I figured no big deal, I know Zokes I'll just revalve them. Guess again, crimped together cartridges! Still I loved that bike, wish I still had it. The problem you will face with any new Ducati(and other Twins as well), is getting it to run as it should , which means having the ECU reflashed open loop and scrapping the cat exhaust. My neighbor has a new Monster and it's obviously lean. Even my '08 was a different bike with the race ECU. For that reason I would save the $5K and put it toward this fix. FWIW, the Termi kit does not address this. It's illegal for the mfg to supply any components that do not meet emissions standards. When I had mine this was not the case, it just had to be intended for race use only.
