The Italian brand might also bring in a more affordable variant of the bike with blacked-out elements, called the Dark Pro variant. More details on the new colour option here.

The launched trims get new colours and graphics along with other updates like a new twin exhaust setup, an updated seat and tail section consisting of a shorter rear fender and lower mounted number plate holder. The top end Scrambler 1100 Sport Pro stands out from the standard variant with a dark colour scheme, flatter handlebar with bar-end mirrors and Ohlins suspension.

Both motorcycles get an updated Euro 5/BS6-compliant 1079cc air-cooled L-twin motor that delivers 86PS at 7500rpm and 88.4Nm of torque at 4750rpm.That’s a performance drop of 1.1PS over the BS4 motor. Electronic rider aids include ride-by-wire with three riding modes: Active, Journey and City. Other electronic rider aids include four-stage traction control and cornering ABS.

The Ducati Scrambler 1100 Pro and Scrambler 1100 Sport Pro compete against the upcoming BS6 scramblers like the Triumph Scrambler 1200 and BMW R nineT.
