Triumph Scrambler 900 2026

Triumph Scrambler 900 2026

The new Triumph Scrambler 900 is an amazingly profound evolution. It is more dynamic, more precise and has a more beguiling sound than ever before. Technically it is a masterpiece, emotionally a point of friction. Anyone looking for a purely retro bike may feel alienated. Anyone looking for a bike with a strong character for country roads, gravel tracks and weekend adventures could fall in love ... or become addicted. I'm torn between the two. And that is perhaps the greatest compliment I can pay a bike.

Precise reponsiveness

addictive sound

agile handling despite weight

suspension

modern electronics sensibly integrated

high driving dynamics

excellent turn-in behaviour

Loss of analogue cockpit romance

some accessories of older models not compatible

design too modern for traditionalists

Ducati Scrambler Icon 2018

Ducati Scrambler Icon 2018

The Ducati Scrambler Icon is certainly not a 'new bike' for 2019 but a successful facelift of a bike that was good from the start. New features include daytime running lights, LED turn signals, new suspension tuning and, most importantly, Bosch cornering ABS. For those who want a simple motorbike that can be used to cover short distances in a very relaxed manner and with a lot of style, the Scrambler Icon is the right choice, because if you let it glide along on the country road in a relaxed manner, with the Ducati you get a very cool all-rounder that is also really fun.

powerful engine

high and wide handlebar

easy handling

lack of average consumption display
