Can a Beginner Handle this DUCATI?

Can the Ducati Monster 937 be a good motorcycle for beginners? If you had asked me one year ago, I would have thought that you were crazy. It's a 111 HP motorcycle with 69 lb*ft of torque. But, after riding it this past year, I realized that it just could be the perfect beginner bike. First, it is important to consider what makes a good motorcycle. In my opinion, these are key features to look for: lightweight, easy to flat foot, ample safety features, excellent brakes, ample power to ride safely on the highway. This Ducati Monster has all those features and more.
