DUCATI SCRAMBLER 1100 - The Best Sliders and Protection
Evotech Performance has designed products specifically for the Ducati Scrambler 1100
Ducati’s Scrambler 1100 series draws heavily on the Italian brand’s original Scrambler series of the 60s and early 70s. Today’s Scrambler 1100, 1100 Sport and 1100 Special have been designed and built with Ducati heritage in mind, which makes solid the connection between old school bike styling and new tech a lot more palatable than some retro offerings coming to market.

Meanwhile, Ducati is on an icon-roll with this latest Scrambler offering. Whereas the norm for motorcycle media is to wish there is more available horsepower, the Scrambler 1100 bikes do not need more than the claimed 84-85 bhp. Quite simply, these bikes aren’t about top speed. Instead, they are designed to deliver simple riding pleasure – the point, squirt, change gear and repeat style of riding enables the rider to watch the world come and go in a much more subdued kind of pace. Because of this, the 1100 Scrambler is a grin-inducing joy to ride.
The ride-by-wire throttle is actually very smooth considering the L-twin (v-twin in non-Ducati world) is throwing 1079cc worth of pistons up and down the bores. Add riding modes and ABS and the Scrambler becomes a great street machine.
