    2016 Red Icon. Just a 

    2016 Red Icon. Just a lot of fun to ride! Light, super nimble. Very torquey but I like that. Clutch went just under 10000k, replacement cost = $1300.00. Ouch! But can’t keep the front wheel on the ground now after it’s replacement.At 6’3”, 220 lbs, bikes too small for me, wish I waited for 2019 1200 would’ve fit much better. But again, don’t care. I love the damn bike! Take it light off-roading and handles real good. Topped out at about 120 on highway. The perfect around towner. Think these are big out West US (Cali), but not so much here in NYC area, so people constantly admire. Between maintenance costs, and parts/accessories though, it’ll probably (maybe) push me away from buying Ducati again (but who really knows😝) If someone asked me, I’d def recommend if they don’t mind paying the Xtra smackers at the shop.

    Super bikes 

    Basically on super bikes we couldn't expect mileage, But this ducati scrambler is most powerful vehicle in this 800 cc segment, But price is too high, That's the major disadvantage on this beast bike, Except that, Everything is pretty awesome.

    Iteration 1have 

    Iteration 1 have just bought this bike, Have to ride this bike at max 60 kmph till the first service which shall be after 1000 kms.The low end torque is beautiful, Down shifting ain't necessary much.The clutch is very soft, The gear shifting is smooth.Its very tempting to rev as it's very easy to go from 20 to 100 on the second gear especially during traffic signals but i am avoiding such temptations for now.The ground clearance can be an issue in places with irregular speed bumps, Which is not the case in vashi but koparkhairne the node next to vashi has some of those speed breakers.So you can assume the problems it will have all over india since vashi and koparkhairne are the better places with respect to the regular height speed heights.

    Classic peanut

In addition, the motorcycle also gets golden multi-spoke alloys that look like spoke wheels, and a twin-pod instrument cluster to further complement. It's the retro charm.
