Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike is ideal for beginners and new riders thanks to its approachable power delivery and light, manageable chassis.
PurposeIt's best suited to casual city riding, weekend cruising, and building confidence rather than aggressive sport riding or long-distance touring.
Rider FitThe low seat height and light dry weight make it easy for shorter or less experienced riders to handle at a stop and in slow maneuvers.
CharacterIt has a friendly, retro-styled personality with a soft V-twin character that rewards relaxed, fun riding rather than outright speed.
Not Ideal ForIt's not for riders seeking high-speed touring, serious off-road capability, or track-level performance.

2017 Ducati Scrambler SIXTY2 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 SIXTY2, 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.
