2023 Ducati Scrambler bookings open in Malaysia; three variants on offer

KUALA LUMPUR: Ducati has opened bookings for the all-new next-generation Scrambler 800 in Malaysia. The latest iteration of the Ducati iconic model is offered in three variants here - Icon, Nightshift, and Full Throttle, decked up in new styling and more advanced features. 

2023 Ducati Scrambler price list is as follows - 

Variant	Price (excluding road tax, insurance and registration)
2023 Scrambler Ducati Icon	RM 62,900
2023 Scrambler Ducati Nightshift	RM 69,900
2023 Scrambler Ducati Full Throttle	RM 69,900

Powering all the three variants is the same 803-cc, Desmodue L-twin engine, which delivers 73 PS of maximum power at 8,250 rpm and 66.2 Nm of peak torque at 7,000 rpm. The engine comes paired with a revised transmission setup with a hydraulic slipper clutch. 

The new Scrambler is also 4 kg lighter than the previous generation thanks to redesigned trellis frame and lighter engine internals. It also gets a revised swingarm paired with a shock absorber. Apart from the main frame, the bike also features a separated rear subframe, which makes customisation and crash repair easier. 

The standard upgrades also comprise -

• New 18-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels
• Cornering ABS 
• Ride-by-wire throttle system
• Ducati Traction Control
• Two riding modes - Road and Wet
• New LED headlight, LED tail light, and LED turn signals

Exclusive highlights of the 2023 Ducati Scrambler variants -

 

The Scrambler Full Throttle is the most appealing model of the range, which boasts a race-inspired GP19 Red/Dark Stealth livery with a number #62 badge. The latter pays homage to the original scrambler introduced in 1962. The bike exclusively comes kitted with a quick-shifter, Termignoni exhaust, and red wheel tags. It is only available in red colour.

The new Scrambler Nightshift boasts a cafe-racer styling with low-positioned handlebars, blacked-out spoke wheels, compact LED indicators, side number plates, and minimal front mudguards. It comes sprayed with Nebula Blue colour.

The base-spec Scrambler Icon, on the other hand, benefits from a redesigned tapered seat and lower handlebars. Ducati offers nine colour combinations for this model.
