Ducati Scrambler Icon 2015

Ducati Scrambler Icon 2015

With the Scrambler, Ducati has pushed a machine to the starting line that will be hard to beat in its traditional retro territory. Because it's not only incredibly stylish, but also works great in terms of the sport.

Engine: simply perfect, wonderful throttle response, linear development, no load changes, worthy punch from below

Chassis: sporty and firm, no soft slap

Optics: simply beautiful

Thin handlebars: a tapered aluminium handlebar would be more visually appealing
