2018 Ducati Scrambler Street Classic Owner’s Manual
The 2018 Ducati Scrambler Street Classic is a perfect mix of classic style and modern engineering. It looks like the famous Scrambler from the 1970s, but it also has modern features that make it fun to ride. With its eye-catching Vintage Black paint job, unique “Cafe Racer” seat, and elegant teardrop-shaped gas tank, the Street Classic has a charmingly retro look that brings back memories of the original Scrambler era. With 73 horsepower and 49 lb-ft of torque, the bike’s air-cooled 803cc L-twin engine gives it a lively performance. It can easily weave through city streets or take on open roads. The distinctive sound of the exhaust adds to the classic look and feels like the soul of riding. The Scrambler Street Classic is easy to ride because it has a comfortable upright sitting position, upside-down 41mm front forks, and a quick Brembo braking system.

When the Low Fuel Light (A) turns on, the display automatically shows the TRIP FUEL function, regardless of the currently displayed function; then, it is possible to toggle through the other Menu functions using button (2).
Trip fuel reading remains stored even after Key-Off until the motorcycle is refuelled. Count is interrupted automatically as soon as fuel is topped up to above minimum level.
When the reading exceeds the maximum value of 9999.9 km or 9999.9 mi, distance traveled is reset and the meter automatically starts counting from 0 again.
Ambient air temperature (AIR)
The instrument panel displays the ambient temperature in the set unit of measurement (°C or°F), followed by the set unit of measurement and the message T-AIR. The temperature value is displayed when ranging from -39 °C to +124 °C (or -38 °F ÷ +255 °F). For any different temperature (below – 39 °C (-38 °F) or above +124 °C (+255 °F)) a string of three dashes ” – – – ” is steadily displayed, followed by the unit of measurement.
If the air temperature sensor is in fault, the instrument panel will show three flashing dashes ” –
– – ” as air temperature value, followed by the unit of measurement and the EOBD light will turn on.
Errors
The instrument panel manages error warnings in order to allow the rider to identify any abnormal motorcycle behavior in real time.
