What the weight numbers tell you

Using a model-level wet weight comparison, the Ducati Monster 1200 S is heavier than about 77.6% of 38 Ducati naked bikes with compatible weight data.
The listed fuel tank capacity is 3.57 US gal (13.5 L) to 4.62 US gal (17.5 L). A full tank of gasoline is estimated to weigh about 22.2 lb (10.1 kg) to 28.7 lb (13 kg), which helps explain part of the difference between dry and ready-to-ride mass.
The supplied data shows model-year weight differences, so the safest figure is the one attached to your exact year rather than a single all-years number.
Where both power and weight are available, the model works out to 29.3 hp per 100 lb to 31.6 hp per 100 lb. This makes cross-size comparisons more meaningful than raw horsepower by itself.
