Cheers for the reference. That bike you’re on has been slightly modded with a ‘Comfort’ seat and the higher handlebars from a different Scrambler model - but they are meant to be modded like that. The Termignoni shotgun exhaust is unique/standard to that particular version. They can do the miles as I’ve proved but there’s a reason why people use proper touring bikes for the job, bigger fuel range being one big reason. The rattley noise you can hear at high revs is the Desmo valve system in the front cylinder head between your knees.
It goes without saying I absolutely love my Scrambler and will never get rid of it. Not after everything I’ve already put the poor thing through.
when you say fuel range, is that due to small tank size, or do you find the mpg plummets once you're around freeway/motorway speeds?
chris davidson Small tank size (13.5 litres) gets you around 125 miles (200km) until the fuel light comes on - around 90 minutes of motorway pace riding. The big touring bikes generally have an 18-20 litre tank so will do around 200 miles to the light. The gearing is also really short on the standard sprockets. 80mph/130kmh is around 6000rpm and the bike’s pretty much revved out at 8k, so you’re really thrashing the engine using it on the motorway too, so it’s probably a bit of both.
@@DaveMurphyEngineer that's higher rpm than i was expecting, thought it'd be at most around 50% of redline!
chris davidson Yeah, That bottom end punch is really helped by silly short gearing, which is also why (as Spicy commented) it’s really jerky on the throttle at slower speeds.
@@DaveMurphyEngineer so the bikes not really that good for cummuting when the commute involves some highway ? i like to do 90mph quite often but i do have to go through some country lanes too on my journey to work
I must say I love my scrambler....... I have put a small screen on it and it makes motorways more bearable.......
But in the twisties it’s awesome ...... ride safe mate😎👍🏻
Spicy saying it's jerky and you have to be smooth, does it have multi-mode settings (rain, normal, sport, for example) on the throttle?
chris davidson no it’s pretty basic you get abs..... the new 1100 scrambler has all the electronic gadgets and rider modes and yes the early 800 cc models have a very sensitive throttle
I sorted mine out using a G2 throttle tamer from the US, and now it’s a lot easier to control at slower speeds
I’ve also heard that if you change the front sprocket from 16 teeth to 15 teeth then this also helps a lot however you then loose a lot of the hooligan fun factor...... hope this helps RSM8😎👍🏻
I own a 2016 urban enduro model and i love it!
It has the looks, it is more than powerfull enough (and it‘s a blast to ride here in the swiss alps) and it has the sound!
I have a mivv slip on and it sound sooooo gooooood
Put the original heated grips on and there you go
Perfect for commuting and very nice for a weekend trip
The high frequency rattling sound is just the Desmodromic valve train, it's just quite loud on the 2V air cooled motors.
I've always passed these without second thought because to me they look like old fashioned unpractical show machines. I think i should try one! Thanks spicy :)
Awesome bike! Would love to have a ride through the countryside on that!
Well I wasn't expecting to see this in my feed today, a very pleasant surprise, looks like a fun bike too.
Anybody else used to call motocross bikes "scramblers". This bike caused so much debate between me an my mates hahha
Back in the day we did think its a very 90s thing.
i can remember scramblers and crossers, and i'm sure they were the same thing
I still do lol
Riding a bike is far more than the Top Trump stats we re led to believe are important. So good to see you showing that with the Ducati Scrambler! :-)
Lovely vid. I have a MASH Falcone 125cc. It looks exactly like the Ducati Scrambler - part reason why I went for it. Taking my test early next year, hopefully!
It isn't for traveling, for go together, too much speed, but is really funny. It has soul
Nice vid mate, haven’t seen your vids for a long time (my bad - still have your stickers from years ago!), but caught up on this as a friend is very interested in the scrambler. Good to hear from you again :)
The super wide angle of whatever that is on the bars is a nice view for that shot.
Love a scrambler
I'm surprised for a scambler it did not come with 80/20 tires to take it green laning . It is more like a street fighter now with those road tires
Road Rash HD It comes on Pirelli MT60RS tyres (18” front wheel too) which are road biased, but capable of some light off-roading. I took mine around the desert and it never struggled except in deep, super-fine sand. For the UK that would translate as suitable for lighter green lanes, but not mud-plugging. A lot of owners wanting to off-road fit Pirelli Scorpions but it’s a heavy bike with mediocre ground clearance, so not the best tool for the job.
Awesome bikes! Loving mine 😊
Are these Ducati scramblers expensive to service with that type of valve gear ? Nice video and you seemed to enjoy the ride .thank you for sharing .
hope you and reeno had a good day mate
Thought about getting the Ducati scrambler sixty2 for my a2 or the honda cb300r
Have the Sixty2 it’s awesome
I really like the new 1100 scramblers. Better clock, more power, and feels like it has more room.
Not ridden one yet but more power is not always a good thing.
@@spicy110 it it's when you're a big dude, lol
Whats is the backpack/buckled thing he's wearing? Is it some kind of airbag?
It's my kriega backpack, if you want to see more go to the link in the description "products I use"
@@spicy110 Cheers!
Have you reviewed or rode any of the yamaha Mt range. Thinging of getting a Mt 07 for my next bike
No I really need to as this and the 07 are defo contenders
My next bike in a few years!
A guy called Henry Crew became youngest person to ever go around the world on one, he did about 35k miles on his bike. Should definitely check him out on insta
I am really enjoying your video's. So much so that I am thinking of getting a bike at the age of 65. Am I fucking mad or what!!!!
You wouldn't be the first around that age, a guy last year did the same! 🙂👍
@@spicy110 there's hope for us oldie's yet. lol
Keep up the good work 👍👍
Best of luck if you go for it!
I'm 65 and I just bought a new triumph street twin 2 years ago and I have 14000 miles on it already and a cross country trip in 2 weeks. Loving every minute. Go for it. I'm gonna ride until I cant walk anymore.
I test rode one at a demo day and didn't like it. The throttle was so poorly tuned and very snatchy on/off. I wonder if I was too hard on it, though, I want to give it another go at some point..
As I ride a 440cc single carbureted supermoto so that feel is pretty normal to me, but as i mentioned with all that extra power it can be snatchy, just takes some finishing of controls to manage.
@@MrSlowestD16 Installing a pair of o2 sensor eliminators (cost £25-£30) will fix the issue, all modern 2 cylinder bikes are pretty snatchy however the old aircooled ducati's suffer the most due to the 2V per cylinder head setup (more valve overlap is required for top end performance on a 2V cylinder head) which required even leaner fueling off throttle and in the closed loop to meet the euro standards.
Miss my scrambler :(
Great 👍🏼
want to do a review bon my cbr 125r ? not stock tho...
What's the jacket?
Where is this, which part of haslmere. Is it near Weyhill?
Look for drift road and follow it down 👍
@@spicy110 drift road. No idea where that is which side of Haslemere. I'll go have a look when I find it
Hang on do you mean where is the shop? It's on Petersfield Road Whitehill. I thought you meant the roads. It used to be in Haslemere long time back it's not anymore.
@@spicy110 cheers mate
@@spicy110 ojlh its near bordon now cheers I know where that is
As you know you're 6ft4 and taller than the average 🐻 😉
MOLBO!!!!!!
Sounds like my 125 lol
