Starting to resemble a Van Van more than a Ducati. Too heavy and clunky from the original design brief of a light agile bike. Reminds me of an overgrown Grom.
looks fantastic, maybe silencers are a bit big but apart from that I think it looks great, easy swap out on those though , I have an 803 but I can see it being traded for one of those next year!, classic scrambler looks and more power, what’s not to like I’ll test ride one first of course but I’m guessing it’ll ride very similar to the Monster 1100 evo, it’s a hit with me. PS with any luck the seat and suspension will be better on this one, guess it will be a few more pennies though!.
it’ll be interesting to see the full spec on the 1100, weight, suspension adjustable?, have they tuned it for torque or bhp? that sort of thing, I love my little scrambler now I’ve made a few mods to it but trying to get more power doesn’t really seem worth it in a “bang for buck” sense, as an old friend of mine used to say, “there’s no substitute for cc’s” The Monster 1100 is around 100bhp, 102nm torque and 188kg wet, if they match or better that it should be a great machine.
It looks like a big chunky kinda bike. Call me old fashioned but I like the traditional Ducati sleek and light style. Each to their own but there won't be one at my house.
No likey - but then i never liked the scrambler either....just looks like a bloated version of that....
