The Monster 1200 S's 145 hp are managed by a Superbike-spec brake system. It is equipped with the same brakes found on the 1199 Panigale, which deliver stunning performance; a racing oriented PR 16 brake pump manages top-level Ø 330 mm discs, which are gripped by the state of the art Brembo M50 Monobloc radial callipers that use MotoGp derived technology to be powerful yet compact and lightweight. A single Ø 240 mm disc in the rear is gripped by a two piston calliper, also by Brembo.
