2018 Ducati Scrambler Street Classic Owner’s Manual

The 2018 Ducati Scrambler Street Classic is a perfect mix of classic style and modern engineering.

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.
