Conclusion

The Ducati Scrambler has a special position in the Italian model range: it reassures the driver. At the same time, it delivers a very different kind of pleasure tours, which is more aimed at cruising. For this, it dispenses with high utility value (and, by the way, also a higher off-road suitability). Intermediate sprints on country roads and in the city are their precincts, with bollerning sound it goes ahead. Those who have fun, who finally want to recognize the meaning of V2 engines and those with the sense of emotion can rejoice over the Scrambler. A Ducati? Yes, but for some it is the black sheep in the family, for others the only Ducati they want to buy. Feat: It does not have much competition, there are mainly the BMW R nineT Scrambler and various Triumph models on the market.
Last note: The 1100 is on the price list with 12,990 euros, while the little sister with 75 hp is available from just under 8,000. A hefty extra charge for 11 more-hp - but if you can, you should treat yourself to it.

The test bike was kindly provided by Ducati Hamburg.
