Ducati Scrambler Icon 2017

Ducati Scrambler Icon 2017

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.
