Ducati Scrambler 1100 Special – Style Accentuated

The Ducati Scrambler 1100 Special in its distinctive Grey livery and tan quilted seat is an upgraded version of the Scrambler 1100. Its chrome exhaust with brushed aluminium twin silencers, brushed aluminium front and rear mudguards along with the adjustable gold anodised front fork legs and classic spoked wheel rims give this bike a very much customised look straight from the factory.

The Ducati Scrambler 1100 Special comes as standard with low slung tapered handlebars which edge the riding position towards a sportier stance.

The new 1079cc engine of the Scrambler 1100 Special offers excellent pulling power throughout the rev range which combined with the exceptionally agile chassis, traction control and Bosch cornering ABS provides an exciting ride in the safest of environments.

As with the rest of the Scrambler range, the Scrambler 1100 Special comes with a vast array of accessories and apparel offerings allowing for total self expression – make this bike your own.

Three ride modes can be selected by the rider, on the move, as and when required – Active, Journey and City modes aid to deliver just the right power and just the right throttle response at just the right time.

The seat height of 810mm not only means that this bike will fit more people, it makes it a breeze to manouver it from a standstill.

The Ducati Scrambler 1100 Special is available in one colour – Grey with a tan seat.

Design

The Scrambler 1100 is essential, mature and carefully thought out, taking inspiration from the iconic ’70s model while remaining faithful to the “Land of Joy” spirit. Larger than the other Ducati Scrambler brand models, the bike’s balanced proportions make it compact yet beefy and ensure outstanding rider comfort as well as unprecedented handling.
The upgraded fork and rear shock absorber are, like the 320 mm dual front brake discs, indicative of a leap forwards in terms of both performance and mature styling.
An high-performance swingarm merges smoothly with the lines of the footrest plates, enhancing the essential styling of the Scrambler 1100. Moreover, quality-conscious finishing reaches new heights thanks to the use of authentic materials such as steel and aluminium.

Attention to detail and the quest for simplicity have minimised the number of pieces used, leading to fewer covers and plastic components.

A focus on styling has allowed up-sizing without compromising on iconic brand features: a more rugged, beefier teardrop tank and interchangeable aluminium side panels, that are classic yet have a new line, make this Scrambler model immediately recognisable.

The seat – different on each version – is more generously shaped than its Scrambler 800 counterpart and has been designed to provide the utmost comfort for rider and passenger alike. A beautifully stitched cover and an embroidered Ducati logo at the rear make this seat particularly eye-catching.

The two silencers merge smoothly with the rear of the bike and the high plate holder while the dual tail pipes give the Scrambler 1100 a more muscular, instantly recognisable look.
In keeping with the self-expression that is the raison d’etȓe of the Scrambler brand, the rear subframe is separate from the chassis to make personalisation easier. Made of aluminium, the subframe also features a gleaming, machine-finished aluminium trim. The front mudguard is held in place by two die cast aluminium supports while the rear one incorporates LED indicators.

Another distinctive Scrambler 1100 feature is the round headlight. This retains the glass parabola shared by all Ducati Scrambler models and is now enhanced by a new aluminium rim. Its interior mounts an aluminium X-grille with a clearly visible Ducati logo. The grille divides up the DRL (Daytime Running Light) system on the Scrambler 1100 to create the four trademark Land of Joy light segments.

Careful design has produced a two-element instrument panel: a classic round section, as seen on all the Scrambler bikes, and an additional oval element to display a broader info range.
Every single part of the Ducati Scrambler 1100 has been meticulously designed down to the very last detail. A painted aluminium logo adds a stylish finishing touch. Machine-
finished aluminium bar plugs match the headlight assembly, as does the logo on the spark plug caps.

The rear brake lever – made, like the clutch lever, of aluminium – has specifically been designed for easy replacement or personalisation. Aluminium is also used for the airbox covers while machine-finished wheel spokes add a further distinctive touch to the Scrambler 1100.
