BMW F 800 R 2009

In the advertisements, the new BMW F 800 R sometimes comes across as a woman's motorbike. This does not do the bike an injustice, but the civilised engine, the low seat height and the smooth controls certainly suit petite ladies.

Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled 2017

Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled 2017

The Desert Sled is not made for tough off-road use, but for fun sessions on gravel roads and in light terrain. With its reinforced frame, large 19" front wheel and fully adjustable suspension elements, it takes into account the requirements of its new field of use. The seat height of 860 millimetres (840 millimetres with a lower seat) also suggests that off-road excursions are not completely absurd. The Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled is just the same, but without ignoring the spirit of lifestyle. Fortunately, the headlight grille of the new Scrambler is homologated, as are the high mudguards.

cool look

cultivated engine

robust appearance

good brakes

really suitable for off-road use

No handguards as standard

somewhat high seat for small riders
