AMCN is presently testing Ducati’s new Scrambler 1100 which has just been released in Australia.

We are testing the top-of-the-range Sport model which is equipped with a fully adjustable 48mm Ohlins fork and Ohlins shock. The Sport retails for $20,990 (+ORC). The range then steps down to the $19,990 (+ORC) Special model which has an adjustable 45mm Marzocchi fork and Kayaba shock, and spoked wheels. The standard 1100 has cast wheels similar to the Sport, and the same adjustable Marzocchi/Kayaba suspension at the Special, it retails for $17,990 (+ORC).  Look for our full test report of the Scrambler 1100 Sport in an upcoming issue of Australian Motorcycle News.
