    What we expect to be either a 2014 or 2015 model year machine
    One version of the rumor pegs the new Scrambler as being an air-cooled single-cylinder machine, 600cc or so in displacement. A stepping stone for Ducati to enter the smaller bike market, the Ducati Scrambler would be the gateway from big bikes to little bikes in the Italian brand.
    While Audi has been fairly laissez-faire with its tampering on the product side of Ducati Motor Holding, one has to imagine that there are marching orders to develop machines that would be better suited to emerging markets.

    Other sources say the Ducati Scrambler will be based off the Ducati Hypermotard, which was designed with a modular chassis, for this very undertaking. In that case, the Scrambler would have the same peppy 821cc water-cooled v-twin motor found on the Hypermotard

          Ducati Rumor Mill 2

          1970 Ducati Scrambler
          News of a reborn Ducatiwill power the new Scrambler is the old, reliable, air-cooled 90-degree V-Twin in its present 696cc displacement. A 400cc edition of that engine was developed years ago to comply with homologation regulations for Japan, where that displacement enjoys special insurance- and tax-rate advantages. This favorable legislation has spread throughout the Far East, making this engine size attractive to any manufacturer that realizes what enormous potential resides in the up-and-coming nations of the Indian and Pacific belt.
          Ducati Monster
          Speaking of India, Triumph is said to be in the process of establishing a production plant there to manufacture a low-priced 250cc Single intended to compete with the locally manufactured KTM Duke 125/200.

          Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
          The girl said, 'NO!'


          And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


          THE END
