Rider Profile

Best ForSuits riders with at least some prior riding experience who want a characterful but manageable machine rather than a beginner's first bike.
PurposeBest suited to fun urban riding, weekend backroad cruising, and stylish everyday transport rather than outright performance or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light dry weight make it accessible to shorter and lighter riders, with an upright, low-effort riding position.
CharacterA relaxed, retro-styled roadster that delivers Ducati V2 charm and playful handling without demanding an aggressive or track-focused riding style.
Not Ideal ForNot the right choice for riders seeking serious off-road capability, two-up long-distance touring comfort, or sport-bike level top-end performance.

2016 Ducati Scrambler Classic Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 790mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2016 Ducati Scrambler Classic, with a relaxed knee angle of around 120 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
