The first liter-class Scrambler in Ducati’s lineup is powered by a 1,079cc oil/air-cooled L-twin engine that makes 86 horsepower (claimed; 75 in City mode), and it comes standard with traction control, three riding modes (Active, Journey and City), Bosch Cornering ABS and an under-seat USB socket to recharge mobile devices.
Offered in three variants, the Ducati Scrambler 1100 will be available as a standard, Special or Sport version, all with distinct design cues. Highlights on the Scrambler 1100 Special include a dedicated “Custom Grey” color with a brushed swingarm and exclusive seat upholstery. The Sport version comes in “Viper Black” with contrasting yellow under panel, double-banded mudguards and Öhlins performance suspension to amplify its sportier attitude.
