Rider Profile

Best ForThis custom Scrambler suits an intermediate to experienced rider who appreciates a characterful, torquey V-twin and a bespoke bike with unconventional ergonomics.
PurposeBuilt as a stylish one-off custom for boulevard cruising and photogenic city riding rather than serious offroad or long-distance touring use.
Rider FitThe 790mm seat height and 170kg dry weight make it manageable for most adult riders, though the 21-inch front wheel and big-bike stance require some confidence at low speed.
CharacterA charismatic, air-cooled desmodromic V-twin with a raw mechanical feel and boutique custom styling that rewards riders who value soul over outright performance.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders seeking serious offroad capability, long-haul touring comfort, or passenger-friendly accommodations.

2015 Ducati Scrambler Officine Mermaid 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 2015 Ducati Scrambler Officine Mermaid, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 degrees and a slightly forward 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.
