Ducati Scrambler Nightshift: Top 5 Highlights

The Nightshift sports a narrow aluminium handlebar, rather than cafe racer clip-ons, which should provide an aggressive yet friendly riding position. The front fender has been chopped off to a small piece, while the rear fender has been completely done away with. There's a small swingarm-mounted fender that doubles up as the holder for the licence plate and the brakelight. The turn indicators are mounted on the stub behind the seat.

The air and oil cooled 803 cc, desmodromic L-twin engine is finished in black with brushed highlights, while the aluminium belt guards are machine finished. The Euro 5 compliant engine puts out 72 bhp at 8,250 rpm and peak torque of 66 Nm at 5,750 rpm.

The Ducati Scrambler Nighshift is equipped with Pirelli MT60 tyres with spoked wheels, an 18-inch front wheel and 17-inch rear wheel.

The Scrambler Nightshift uses a flat seat and straight handlebar with bar-end mirrors. The Nightshift has a 180 kg dry weight, and gets LED DRL, LED taillight, and a LCD instrument panel with gear and fuel level indicator.

The new Ducati Scrambler Nightshift is priced at Rs. 9.80 lakh (Ex-showroom), and will replace the Scrambler Cafe Racer and Full Throtlle variants.
