Complementing the black and yellow colour combination are the flat-track-inspired seat with contrast stitching and pillion seat cover, racing number plates, a front mud guard, Termignoni exhaust with dual tips and wide aluminum handlebars. Naming conventions aside, the Scrambler Full Throttle was re-introduced in 2019 with styling elements inspired by California Flat Track racer Frankie Garcia rather than the bikes seen in On Any Sunday. The Scrambler Full Throttle was re-introduced in 2019 with styling elements inspired by the livery of California Flat Track racer Frankie Garcia. Now featuring no less than ten variants, I had the chance to ride the Full Throttle model down in Los Angeles. Like the Scrambler Café Racer, for instance. Ducati then curiously used the name to create a sub-brand of models, many of which are not Scamblers at all.


Triumph resurrected the genre back in the mid-2000s by building just that. For those uninitiated, the term Scrambler was initially used to describe an on-road motorcycle specifically adapted for off-road duty with longer suspension travel, knobby tires, motocross handlebars and a raised exhaust pipe. I simply can’t start a review on any Ducati Scrambler without first commenting on its confusing lineup name.
