No Ducati, but good

What remains of this very special Ducati? First of all, she's not really a Ducati. These are loud, often hard and brushed on riot. The exact opposite is the Scrambler, and therefore the spin-off of these machines into a sub-brand was the right decision. The whole machine has an unexcited appearance, positive and just right for the connoisseur.

It is ideal for a relaxing tour after work and around the block on weekends. In addition to a new rev counter, the next facelift should also bring better passenger comfort on the short bench, because you have to be allowed to share positive experiences.

The test bike was provided to us by Ducati Hamburg.

It's a cruiser

Last but not least, You can believe Yamaha 100 percent – in the off-road it can do almost nothing better than normal bikes. The tyres (Bridgestone TW 101 in front and TW 152 in the rear) are already facing greater ambitions.

What remains: The Yamaha SCR 950 is a Scrambler-style cruiser. That's not a bad thing, but most of the extra goes into optics – and it must be worth it.
