The bikes retain the same signature Scrambler styling but get minor cosmetic updates, like a new headlamp that gets an ‘X’ logo integrated into the lens.

New features include LED turn indicators, optional Ducati Multimedia System, and adjustable levers.

While not much has changed in the powertrain department, the Scrambler range gets a new hydraulic clutch that should reduce clutch lever effort by quite a bit. The bikes continue to be powered by an 803cc air-cooled L-twin motor that makes 74PS and 67Nm of torque. It gets a six-speed gearbox with a slipper clutch.

The biggest addition is to safety which comes in the form of a new Bosch Cornering ABS. This setup helps keep the bike stable in corners under hard braking. Going by the updates, we expect the new Scrambler range to cost Rs 60,000 more than the previous range which start at Rs 6.78 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

Stay tuned for launch updates.
