Ducati Launches Icon Dark and Updated Full Throttle
Words NZ Autocar | Images Ducati
The new Icon Dark is so-named because of its full black paintwork while the Full Throttle Scrambler is revamped with a fresh black and bronze livery harking back to Ducati racers from the 70s.
Scrambler Icon Dark
The Icon Dark is the base Scrambler in black. Its new look highlights the minimalism of the second-generation Scrambler. This is the new gateway model to the Scrambler line-up, ripe with customisation potential.
Pick the new model by its modern take on the Ducati Scrambler logo affixed to the teardrop tank.
Scrambler Full Throttle
The Full Throttle is the sportiest example in the Ducati Scrambler range, inspired by US Flat Track competitions. its side number plates bear the number 62 for 1962, the year that the Ducati Scrambler first launched. The Full Throttle has a more aggressive look enhanced by its aluminium sump guard and Termignoni exhaust.
Seat upholstery and aluminium rims bear the new bronze livery, inspired by 1970s racing motorcycles and cars.
The lowered handlebar with variable section, a short front mudguard, and a tail without the rear mudguard are part of the Full Throttle’s aggressive style. This is further enhanced by the standard-fit Termignoni silencer, LED indicators and up and down quickshifter.
Scrambler Next-Generation
The second-generation Ducati Scrambler offers a unique and recognisable style, and a fun, accessible, safe ride for everyday use. Featuring classic Scrambler styling cues, the latest model added replaceable covers and a 4.3” TFT dashboard.
The 54kW 803cc Desmodue twin-cylinder engine received a new clutch and alternator covers, belt covers and exhaust. More exposed than before, the update engine is also lighter. The bike is equipped with ride-by-wire, a quickshifter, riding modes and cornering ABS.
Both new models will go on sale shortly. Each can be accessorised with different exhausts, seats, coloured covers, soft bags and items milled from solid aluminium (footrests, mirrors, tank caps). All accessories are available to order via the Ducati online configurator.
