DescriptionThe whole story▼

The front and rear axles of a MONSTER 1200 S do the same job in a fall: they lead. Enter the WAPDU403: nylon outside for elasticity, Ergal inside for strength, 200 g on the scales. It is offered in 2 colours: Black, Red. The 1198 cc MONSTER 1200 S carries it on standard fixings, so nothing is drilled.

Key Features

  • Designed around the MONSTER 1200 S specifically rather than adapted from another model
  • Repeated knocks on a MONSTER 1200 S leave the nylon marked and the Ergal core intact
  • At 200 g the WAPDU403 is the cheapest thing on the MONSTER 1200 S to sacrifice
  • No type-approval paperwork supplied with the WAPDU403 — see the approval note below
  • The WAPDU403 stands proud of the axle nut, which is the whole mechanism
  • Supplied complete with the hardware the MONSTER 1200 S installation needs

Construction and Material Quality

Nylon forms the outside of the WAPDU403; the material is elastic enough to take repeated knocks. Inside sits a machined Ergal insert — the same alloy family LighTech uses for load-bearing parts. The design assumes the WAPDU403 will be used, and makes the used part the cheap one.

Why an Axle Slider Works

The principle is simple and the execution is not: stand proud, give way, stay attached. Splitting the job between two materials is what lets the WAPDU403 be both tough and light. After contact the nylon shows it and the Ergal underneath usually does not.

Fitment

LighTech's fitment for the WAPDU403 is the Ducati MONSTER 1200 S across 2014 to 2021. Torque the fasteners to the MONSTER 1200 S workshop figures and re-check them after the first ride.

Supplied As

The WAPDU403 ships as a complete axle set for the MONSTER 1200 S: shells, inserts and the bolts that hold them. A worn WAPDU403 is renewed at the element, not at the kit.

Fitting

Allow an unhurried half hour for the WAPDU403 on a MONSTER 1200 S the first time. Re-check the fastener torque after the first ride, as with any part that hangs off the MONSTER 1200 S frame. Black, Red: 2 finishes of the same WAPDU403, identical in fit on the MONSTER 1200 S.

Road Approval

The WAPDU403 arrives without approval paperwork, and we do not present it as approved. Rules differ by country; in Germany the MONSTER 1200 S inspection is where this comes up. Clarify it before fitting if the MONSTER 1200 S is road-registered; for track and paddock use the question does not arise.
