DescriptionThe whole story▼

With the 1200 the Monster became a genuinely fast motorcycle rather than a stylish one, and the brakes came from the superbike parts bin. A lever that transmits what those brakes are doing is worth having. Five settings let the blade sit exactly at the first joint of the fingers.

Key Features

  • CNC-machined from high-strength aluminium, anodised
  • Folding lever, swings clear instead of breaking in a fall
  • Double ball bearings instead of plain bushings, so the lever has no play
  • Span adjustment: five positions, set by a precise and smooth adjuster
  • Coloured inserts at the lever end can be exchanged
  • Approved under ABE No. KBA 91507 (Gilles)

Type M6

Gilles lists the Monster 1200 of 2014 to 2016 under the type M6.

Folding joint

In a fall the blade folds away. On a naked bike, where the lever is the first thing to touch the ground, that is the difference between a scratch and a new lever.

Road Approval

Approved according to Gilles under ABE No. KBA 91507, with the Ducati MONSTER 1200 (M6) named in the fitment list. The certificate comes with the lever. Because Gilles does not publish it, we quote only the number and not the conditions; ask us and we will obtain them. Gilles notes that the TÜV entry for this number is currently being updated.

Scope of Delivery

In the box: one MPL brake lever, ready to fit. The clutch lever is ordered separately.

Fitting

After fitting, check the span setting with your gloves on rather than bare-handed, since that is how the lever will be used. Make sure the folding joint moves without effort and that the lever returns cleanly to its stop.
