The Scrambler Ducati Mach 2.0 version, first launched at the renowned French event Wheels and Waves in Biarritz, is en route to Australian shores.
Sleek, with low-slung tapered aluminium handlebars, the Mach 2.0 also features a dedicated Flat Track Pro seat, black exhaust and cylinder head covers, plus Café Racer-style brushed cooling fins.
Its fresh graphics, created by renowned Californian designer Roland Sands, take their cue from the Bell Cross Idol helmet (Ducati Scrambler 2017 apparel collection) and feature colours that evoke the typical West Coast style of the ’70s.
Inspiration for the name of this latest Scrambler version comes from a bike that made Ducati – and motorcycling – history in the ’60s. Back in 1965, in fact, the Mach 1 250 was launched: a classic of its day that mounted the same engine as the Scrambler 250 of the time.
Needless to say, the choice of name stems from its association with speed and movement: ‘Mach’, in fact, is the unit of measure for supersonic speeds.
The Mach 2.0 teaser video was showcased on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IS2fBWdQqJI) in which the protagonist is a scale model.
The exclusivity of this Roland Sands Designs Scrambler will be high due to only 35 units available to purchase in the Australia/New Zealand region for RRP AU$15,490 + ORC and RRP NZ$18,490 + ORC.
