If straight-line speed is your priority, the MT-10 takes the lead. With 53 HP more than the Monster +, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the Monster + has a clear advantage.

Riders with a shorter inseam should lean towards the Monster +. Its seat height is 20mm lower than the MT-10, making it much easier to flat-foot at stoplights and increasing confidence during stops. Bottom Line: While both are capable, the mt10 offers a superior power-to-weight ratio, making it the more exciting machine for experienced riders.
