Ducati Scrambler Icon Dark introduced in 2020 But it’s only a small step of an improvement over the old model, not a giant leap. Even if you don’t buy into the hipster image, marketing hype and lifestyle it’s still a brilliant all-round attractive road bike. Ducati updated the Scrambler family in 2021 before launching a new version for 2023.Ĭosting well over £8000, it’s stretching your wallet a little more, and it’s a shame the engine lacks character.

The 2019 Scrambler Icon 800, like the previous version, is simple, easy-to-ride, but now softer, more comfortable, with improved looks and features like DRL, and cornering ABS. Like the chassis, the 41mm KYB forks, monoshock (now mounted in the middle), Brembo calipers, and Pirelli MT60 rubber all remain the same.Ducati's Scrambler models are retro-infused soft roaders that use the style of '60s dirt bikes with modern reliability and creature comforts.

It will feel punchier, though, as the 2023 Scrambler is 4kg lighter than before. The 803cc engine, though mated to modern kit, pumps out the same 73 horsepower, and sits in the same trellis chassis as before.

Oh, and in case these variants still don’t cut it for you, the fenders, fuel tank panels, and headlight nacelle are all customizable (you can choose from six different colors). Like the Full Throttle, this one also has a special livery (deep blue with silver pinstripes) and Ducati Performance LED indicators. It ups the ‘scrambler’ feel in the lineup with its spoke wheels and ribbed seat, but it also promises a sporty feel via the flat handlebar. The second one is called the Scrambler Nightshift. Love cafe racers? Then, the Nightshift is the Scrambler for you
