Title: Ducati Scrambler

Serious contender in the 'classic' adventure mould, or boutique wannabe?

Discuss.

My 22 cents (2 cents + inflation):

If nothing else it weighs significantly less than our dear old Triumph Scrambler.
However if one were to try to get seriously off-roady on it the up turned exhaust might be a collector for all kinds of stuff........ :icon_wink:

They might as well have called it the Ducati Starbucks. I suspect it's aimed at the BMW R9T market segment.

I agree about the twins but I like the bike.

Now now, be kind! We cannot blame Ducati for trying to squeeze the last drop out of a parts-bin special.
