Ducati Scrambler 800 Café Racer
 

With its renewed livery, the Café Racer draws its inspiration – and Silver Ice Matt graphics with blue frame – from the legendary ducati 125GP Desmo. The new 17″ spoked wheels and aluminium bar-end mirrors give the bike a cool ’60s race look, while a modern radial front brake pump provides braking performance on a par with that of a sport bike. And there’s more: the exhaust with dual tailpipe, nose fairing, lateral number holders (with the number 54 in honour of Bruno Spiaggiari) and stubby mudguard are all clear references to the bikes that roared down British streets in the ’60s.

The aluminium of the new, beefier side panels matches the steel of the teardrop tank and the glass of the headlight flawlessly. A black-painted engine and brushed cylinder head fins add even more eye-catching panache to these new versions.

The all-new headlight with LED DRL (Daytime Running Light) boosts bike visibility in traffic, even in daylight, as do the new auto-off LED indicators. More ergonomic switchgears simplify scrolling of the LCD menu, which now shows selected gear and fuel level info. They also allow smooth operation of the ducati Multimedia System, which lets riders listen to playlists, answer incoming calls or chat with the passenger on the intercom.

Moreover, thanks to the safety provided by Bosch Cornering ABS – all-new and exclusive for this category of vehicle – riding is now more carefree than ever. Riders will also appreciate the new softer-feel hydraulic clutch control, while the adjustable lever – like the one on the front brake – ensures the lever-handlebar gap can be adapted to individual needs.

Just four years after the Scrambler Ducati brand official launch – in Cologne itself back in 2014 – over 55,000 bikes have been sold worldwide. The breadth of the brand is also evident in the four ducati scrambler Camp stores in Borgo Panigale, Padua, Barcelona and New York, plus the two scrambler Food Factory restaurants opened in Bologna.

The renewed Ducati Scrambler family is more contemporary, more comfortable and safer, ensuring even more carefree ‘Land of Joy’ fun! Anti-conformist, affordable and essential, the Ducati Scrambler is the perfect blend of tradition and innovation. This latest “Joyvolution” incarnation retains the pure essence of motorcycling: two wheels, a wide handlebar, a simple engine and a ton of fun.

The Ducati Scrambler Icon is now joined by several new versions: the Full Throttle, inspired by the Flat Track racing scene, the Café Racer, which offers a fresh take on the legendary bikes of the ’60s that brought about a motorcycling revolution, and the Desert Sled, which puts a Scrambler slant on the Southern California bikes of the ’60s and ’70s. Like the Icon, the three latest versions take self-expression to the max.

While the 2019 models offer a solid starting point, original accessories will further enhance the creative spirit behind the Ducati Scrambler.

These three latest versions incorporate the new aesthetic and technical features introduced with the Icon. On the Scrambler, modern yet authentic materials are combined to perfection. The aluminium of the new, beefier side panels matches the steel of the teardrop tank and the glass of the headlight. Refined features such as the black-painted crankcases and brushed cylinder head fins make the Ducati Scrambler even more eye-catching.

The all-new headlight with DRL (Daytime Running Light) boosts bike visibility in traffic, even in daylight, as do the new auto-off LED indicators. More ergonomic switchgears make it easier for the rider to scroll through the LCD instrument menu, which now includes fuel level info.

The Ducati Scrambler’s wide handlebars, new flat seat and renewed suspension set-up merge to provide a more comfortable and relaxed riding position. New Bosch Cornering ABS maximises active safety during braking, ensuring riders get full-on riding fun. Riders will also appreciate the new softer-feel hydraulic clutch control, while the adjustable lever – like the one on the front brake – ensures the lever-handlebar gap can be adapted to individual needs.

The Ducati Multimedia System lets you ride while listening to your favourite music, answer incoming calls or chat with the passenger on the intercom.
