Rider Profile

Best ForWell suited to newer and intermediate riders thanks to its manageable power delivery, light weight, and forgiving handling.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a fun, stylish all-rounder for city streets and twisty backroads rather than outright speed or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light dry weight make it easy for shorter or less experienced riders to handle confidently.
CharacterA charismatic, retro-styled machine with a punchy L-Twin engine that rewards playful, spirited riding over raw performance.
Not Ideal ForNot the ideal choice for riders seeking serious off-road capability, high-speed touring comfort, or top-tier outright performance.

2017 Ducati Scrambler Full Throttle 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 2017 Ducati Scrambler Full Throttle, 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.
