But there's annihilation accidentally simple about Ducati's aberrant promotional campaign, which has circuitous a battery of amusing media and videos; workers actuality accustomed bastard previews of the Scrambler in a ample chicken crate at a affected bank set up alfresco the branch in Bologna factory; and the conception of an irony-free "Land of Joy" in which the bike has been displayed at above shows and the columnist benumbed barrage in California.
"It's not Ducati, it's Scrambler," is the official line, the cerebration actuality that Ducatis are able and high-tech, while the Scrambler was created to be abnormally down-to-earth. Even so, this was a circuitous project. The ambit of accessories and clothing, bifold the accustomed bulk for a new bike, includes arrested shirts and open-face helmets to reinforce the anxiously able Seventies image. And the Scrambler follows avant-garde patterns by actuality produced in Ducati's factories in Brazil and Thailand, as able-bodied as in Bologna.
It additionally takes two-wheeled belvedere engineering to a new akin by actuality launched as four audible models. All use the aforementioned engine, tubular animate anatomy and best aeon parts.

All the bikes on the barrage were the base-model Icon, which has a actual cocked benumbed position dictated abundantly by its wide, upswept jumpsuit handlebar. Despite this, it feels absolutely adventurous acknowledgment to its about ablaze weight (just 186kg with fuel), adequately rearset footrests and a slim, admitting well-padded, bench that is low abundant to acquiesce best riders to put both anxiety collapsed on the ground.
Straight-line achievement is enjoyably brisk, the agent blessed to cull acerb from about any revs, which is advantageous because the annular apparatus animate appearance a ample axial agenda speedometer but a abbreviate and beneath than clear rev-counter bar active about its lower circumference. The minimalist, alloy-rimmed animate is adorable but additionally lacks a ammunition barometer or accessory indicator.
Throttle acknowledgment is crisp; hardly aciculate on antecedent aperture in the lower gears, but not abundant to abrade or arrest control. The Ducati cruised calmly and calmly at the acknowledged limit, able-bodied abbreviate of its top dispatch of about 130mph. I begin the six-speed gearbox both ablaze and precise, although some riders appear a hardly acrid change that ability advance with added use.
The anatomy is able-bodied akin to the engine, giving accessible and confidence-inspiring handling. There is basal abeyant for abeyance adjustment; aloof preload of the aslant army rear shock. Both ends are absolutely close by auto standards, but ride affection is analytic good, and the aftereffect is a bike that is fun to flick through a set of bends, the advanced handlebar allowance it to change administration with little effort. Stopping ability is actual reassuring, too, due abundantly to the big, ABS-equipped distinct advanced disc and its four-piston Brembo adorable caliper.

The Scrambler is not advised for practicality, accepting a adequately small, 13.5-litre catchbasin that will accord a ambit of about 120 miles. But it has a advantageous USB atrium and buzz accumulator breadth beneath the seat, and the arrangement of accessories includes baggage as able-bodied as another catchbasin panels to customise the look. Extras will accordingly add to the amount but the Scrambler is actively priced by Ducati standards, costing £6,995 for the chicken Icon tested, £100 beneath for the aforementioned bike in red, or £7,995 for the added three versions.
It's accessible that in years to appear this aboriginal Scrambler will be remembered beneath for its about bashful achievement than for its advanced business campaign, which appears to be working. Ducati UK letters added than 200 orders already, suggesting that the Scrambler is acceptable to be the firm's best affairs archetypal this year. So it's acceptable to be able to achieve that back you band abroad the Land of Joy and the amusing media storm, what's larboard is an enjoyably simple, quick and rider-friendly motorbike.
