2023 Ducati Scrambler | First Ride Launch Review
Chad's been trying to look cool on the launch on the new 2023 Ducati Scrambler, proving that it's not just for the city slickers he's been throwing it around the Spanish countryside, with added wheelies!

I bought the Desert Sled model 3 weeks ago. The Scrambler's secret to success is that it is fun and easy to ride. It is not an intimidating bike. It is a bike that does not scream mid life crisis for a middle aged middle class man. I don't like Harley's and I don't like crotch rockets; neither one fits my life style and personality. A Scrambler is simple in design, yet provides a lot of performance and fun in that simple package. The Desert Sled fits the Scrambler image better with it's higher front fender and more off road oriented handle bars.

Interesting comments.
My previous bike was a scrambler 800 full throttle. I live in France and the bike in town was way too hot. The OEM tyres were not great so I'd recommend swapping out. The fuelling was super jerky so I'm glad that has been addressed
The rectangular screen with the rounded housing would bother me. Either a bigger round screen or an analog tach and smaller screen would look better.
The price is s the sticking point here. For circa £10k the Street Triple R is a much better buy. Definitely a heart over head purchase this one.
Nightshift is one of my favourite Ducati..🥰😍
New one looks like a cheaper copy bike. Rad shroud looks tacked on. I prefer the older model

Agreed. A backwards move by Ducati
"The tyres look like race wets from 20 years ago" You know, I heard tell that the Pirelli MT60 was used as the wet weather tyre in super moto racing and Pirelli developed a special compound for that purpose. That tyre then became the MT60 RS, as fitted to the scrambler, among others :)
I love these Scramblers from Ducati. Very tempting!
Not exactly the same thing but the XSR900 seems like a lot more retro-esque bike for £10k😮

I would take the xsr900 over this (and an MT09 SP over the xsr) but this is a more premium bike and it will make a better city and commuting bike.

Did Ducati say anything about getting the Desert Sled back next year? That was the only bike on their Scrambler line that could actually, kinda, scramble so it's odd that they seem to have dumped it (though I assume the reason is it didn't sell well comparitively).
To be fair I like the scrambler but my mate has one and omg it's eye wateringly expensive to look after if you're actually going to put decent mileage on it. I've got an r ninet and while it's a bit more expensive to buy, over a 5 year ownership it ends up a lot cheaper than the Ducati. I think the move to nearly 10k will hurt sales.
If you ignore the electronics (which cost nothing) it looks to me Ducati have pulled a fast one.. exhaust routing changed “less bends “ looks cheap. Relocation of shock mount looks like everything else. The original location was one of the features that’s made it stand out. The seat looks cheap , the previous looked stitched and quilted. The tank is a cheap metal tank with plastic covers as opposed to a solid metal finished tank, which was a jewel. The exhaust pipe looks like it’s been made out of a can of beans. Did I mention the horrendous seat ? I would love to know how much the bike costs to manufacture compared to the original? Yet the price has gone up! By the way, I won’t be swapping my 2016 model any time soon which I absolutely love!! I paid £7500 for my 2016 Icon New.
The dashboard off centre would drive me nuts
Cool thanks. Turns out it hs been 30 degrees plus in London this summer. Where I lice 28-30 and a strong hot sun is standard. Is the bike too hot?
that headlight bondage-strap
I could give 2 shits about traction control! I have an '18 without TC and love it.
It doesn't look anything like the old one and it went way down towards the wrong direction in terms of styling and design. Such a shame, it used to look quite good.
That TFT dash is gotta be one of the most tasteless executions. looks like mounted GPS device from 10 years ago. cmon ducati
Does it still burn your leg, which held me back from getting the olde model.
is this bike has heat issues ?? can we safe our thighd in traffic or in city ride
i think what would make this bike seem more appealing to more people is cruise control especially on the desert sled model its got the abillity to be a great little touring all terrain bike its just lacking that 1 major thing
The improvements look good. No cruise control though which is a shame. If you wanted to ride from Valencia to Alicante for example cruise control would be a massive benefit.
Looking at the older model and the newer one, yeah, they are very different looking apart from the aesthetics. I wonder if they can go back to a smaller Monster with this engine since it's supposedly now Euro X compliant. I just like the 17 inch wheels since there's more variety of tires to fit them.
If it makes you feel good, it's a good bike.

@@josha4913 The REAR TC and ABS. For TC you need it off in the sand an for power sliding in dirt. The rear ABS is always off in the dirt so you can lock it up and use it to steer. You’ve obviously never ridden off-road or you’re REALLY bad at it.
My girlfriend has a 2017 and loves it
service intervals?
Hows the comfort for a tall rider of 188cm?
I don't like the fact that Ducati 'cheapen' this bike by emphasising the word Scrambler bigger than the word Ducati on the tank. It's a Ducati, and you pay full Ducati servicing tax to prove it lol! The 'scrambler' moniker should be on the side panel. I have a 2020 cafe racer version. People often admire its prettiness but say they've never heard of 'Scrambler' and ask if it's some new manufacturer!
Add RAIN mode and liquid cooled. Give me a call after that. :)

Yes.
Why would they sell a prototype? This is why we buy Japan tech. Durability and value for money
Sorry Ducati,I just cant get into this bike.I wish you built a Monster variant of the Scrambler,it would look better than the bland current Monster....
Other than motorcycle festivals I have never seen a hipster riding a motorcycle. I don't understand the correlation with all of these bikes being called hipster bikes.

Scrambler has no purpose thats the problem
2016 scrambler in many opinions one of the worst bikes ever made,terrible fueling,no gear change indicator ,no fuel gauge,cablesbover front ,terrible engine noise,close service intervals ,so I hope newer models gave overcome the previous models
