In terms of raw performance, these two are evenly matched. The Monster and Monster V2 produce nearly identical power figures, meaning the real-world difference will come down to gearing and torque delivery rather than peak horsepower. When it comes to agility, the Monster V2 has a clear advantage. Weighing in 13kg less than the Monster, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Bottom Line: It's a close call. Choose the monster if you prefer its specific styling and ergonomics, or the monster if you want the alternative brand character.
