09 Jan Ducati Scrambler Range
Over the last two years some 29 246 Scramblers have been sold worldwide. The Ducati Scrambler range consist of the following models:
Ducati Scrambler Icon – Urban Enduro – Full Throttle – Flat Track Pro – Desert Sled – Café Racer – Classic
Scrambler Urban Enduro
The Urban Enduro was known for allowing a rider access to roads less travelled. Its agile nature allows easy navigation around (and over) obstacles to new adventures. The high plastic fibre mudguard and spoke wheels add to the enduro-look. The fork protectors, engine sump guard and headlight grille protect the key parts of the bike on off-road sections.
Colour: Wild Green
Desert Sled takes the place of the Scrambler Urban Enduro
The Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled styling comes from the 1960s off-road machines. These bikes were used in the desert and therefore stripped to the bare essentials for reliability and practicality. With a strengthened chassis, longer travel suspension and gold-spoked rims (19” front wheel), the Desert Sled is definitely more suited for the rough and adventurous off-road terrain.
Colours: Red or White
Scrambler Café Racer
The Ducati Scrambler Café Racer is also from the 1960s. This time it’s the rockers from London who enjoyed modifying their bikes as they travel from café to café. The road- riding conditions also contributed to more road-riding styling. More forward handle bars, front brake pump by Brembo with standard ABS on the Café Racer. Termignoni exhaust and side number boards add some further soul to the Scrambler range.
Colour: Black
Scrambler Flat Track Pro
The Ducati Flat Track Pro’s appeal is the fact that it’s a celebration model from Troy Bayliss’ participation in flat track racing. It truly is a motorcycle with great seating position, power and agility which is most definitely what Troy Baylis would have wanted and needed for flat track racing. The double-barrel Termignoni can, die-cast wheel rims and high contrast yellow colour scheme give the Scrambler Flat Track Pro an unmistakable look. The clutch is also soft and exceptionally easy to manage on slow and quick releasing.
Colour: Yellow
Scrambler Iconic
It seems The Ducati Scrambler Icon’s main purpose is comfort. Styling on the scrambler range definitely has its unique elements. The Icon steel teardrop tank comes with interchangeable aluminium side panels. The heat guard and the interchangeable surround of the characteristic LCD instrument panel all enrich the style of the bike. Wide handlebar, LED guide-light and aluminum finish for belt covers – comfort and unique styling, true to Ducati standards.
Colours: Yellow or Red
Scrambler Full Throttle
The Ducati Scrambler Full Throttle model is inspired by racing. Racing from the flat track era inspired Termignoni racing exhaust (homologated for road use) and dedicated graphics. The Full Throttle has distinctive features like the short front mudguard and the low tapered handlebar. Although the Scrambler Full throttle is inspired by racing, the styling and usability does not restrict a rider from using it daily at all. It’s a great all-rounder.
Colour: Deep black and yellow
Scrambler Classic
The Ducati Scrambler Classic styling derives from the 1970s. Although the styling is classic, there is no compromise on the functionality and riding pleasure of the new scrambler classic. Its unique refined details, such as the aluminium front and rear mudguards, the spoke wheels and the brown seat with diamond-shaped inserts is what makes the Classic so attractive.
Colour: Orange Sunshine
