Low seat height, light (ish) weight, non threatening looks, priced well. So it may appeal to woman more than men . I know one French lady that will buy one this year. If it gets more bums on bikes then that's great. Just need to find my pre op Harley Street consultation vouchers and buy a few nice outfits to go with it!
Brilliant ... "2nd tier hipsters" ... I love this website "Born Free" ... PMSL FFS ... is El-Toro going to change his name to El-sa
Just revisiting this thread....id say the poll is a quick snapshot of the general opinion. As much as i hate the thing i think someone might be able to polish the turd up but i think itll take a lot...not holding my breath though..
I don't think it is really aimed at your normal Ducati-enthusiast ... the kind of folk who frequent this forum and would vote in the poll. It is aimed at a different market (ET excepted of course! ) ... your "2nd tier hipsters" as BHBV put it.
Just bought my first accessory in preparation for the Full Throttle delivery, the not a real enthusiast helmet cover...
( as someone said ) does the name " scrambler " not infer some sort of offroad ambitions,, I think if this thing went off road then indeed " scrambling " would show its true meaning !!
don't think i would like to be throwing this around some muddy hill side,, but it looks fantastic :Happy:
More flat trackers than off rowders, but reckon with some protection some light 'scrambling' would be ok. Think American desert or Australian outback environment rather than muddy UK woods or mountain sides
thinking about it,,, I saw a couple of these at Goodwood ( FOS ) last year,, don't look q so heavy in the flesh,, cracking looking bikes..
That looks nice Chris, and I'm all for style before function but those Brat stylee seats must kill your arse after 10 minutes.
Its a great site isn't it Dave...not sure how I stumbled across it last year...have a look in the feelgood Friday bit...this was in there one week....which I think was one of the best races ever....this small clip was edited perfectly - watched it loads of times... - digressing a little but its worth it....
I've just put my vote on the Yellow Icon ordered it on Wednesday, I'm hanging my head in shame as I type this!
