Ducati Scrambler is an easy and fun-to-ride bike. Retro-cool looks, backed by modern technology, the Scrambler harks back to the days of simple motorcycling – two wheels and an empty road.

If we talk about Harley Davidson Iron 883, it is basic and a budget way into Harley ownership. Also, it is more suitable for both city and highway rides. Harley Davidson Iron 883, is poured-in saturated power by the Evolution V-twin 883 cc air-cooled engine that is engineered with a passion to churn out a maximum power of 50.6 PS @ 5500 rpm and a maximum torque of 70 Nm at 3500 rpm.

Question 11

Q. Hi, i had Bonneville T100 ,but i had to sell it because of brake pedal issue, the reason is i have ankle pain so i used to get bad ankle pain after riding the bike, so i need a bike with forward brake pedal kindly guide me i have Ducati scrambler on my mind. Please suggest.

Answer

Firstly I would recommend to change your riding style. Front brakes should be used most of the times and rear only 20%. As far as Ducati Scrambler is concerned it is a brilliant machine and very easy to ride.

Answer

The scrambler foot rests are also under the rider, not forward controls like the ducati xdiavel. In any case, you probably should be using the front wheel brakes much more and the foot brake only at parking speeds.
