Little is known about the new model, but it looks like it'll be a V-twin (probably water-cooled) and compete against other bikes like the Moto Guzzi V7 or Triumph Bonneville… arguably it would be competition for the Indian Scout as well. A lightweight, fast, bare-bones, super fun bike that's in a high price bracket.

The Scrambler will be a retro-throwback to the '60s and '70s when simple bikes blurred the lines between dirt and street. Chrome insert on the tank, slant-mounted exposed rear shocks and no down tube, we can't wait to see it. Stay tuned tomorrow for our Intermot coverage all day.

According to Ducati, the bike was unveiled exclusively to its employees in June and will be sent to their dealerships in January, 2015. We aren't sure if that includes us Americans, but we certainly hope so.
