Debuts Slated for “The Motorcycle Shows” in Canada
Scrambler Café Racer
(MSRP $12,395 CAD / Available April 2017) – The Scrambler Café Racer is the Ducati Scrambler interpretation of the legendary ’60s bike that triggered a motorcycling revolution. With its “Black Coffee” color scheme, the Ducati Scrambler Café Racer takes us from the 1960s all the way to today’s “Land of Joy.”
Scrambler Desert Sled
(MSRP $12,395 CAD / Available March 2017) – The first fully on and off-road-capable Scrambler is a bike that evokes the spirit of American dual-sport bikes of the ’60s and ‘70s. With a reinforced frame and adjustable suspension, as well as spoked wheels (19″ at the front), the bike is simply perfect for those who want to get off the asphalt.
SuperSport
(MSRP $13,995 CAD / Available April 2017) – The SuperSport perfectly balances sport and comfort to guarantee excitement and riding pleasure. With its 113 HP, this is the road-going sports bike to suit everybody: beautiful, fun, versatile. Whether on the motorway or in city traffic, the SuperSport allows anyone to indulge in their sports instinct.
Multistrada 950
(MSRP $15,295 CAD / Available January 2017) – The Bologna-based manufacturer’s entry “multibike,” designed to provide all the excitement of the Multistrada in a way that makes it more accessible and versatile.
Monster 1200
(MSRP $15,595 CAD / Available January 2017) – The new Monster 1200 is packed with new design and content, but with true Ducati naked bike flair. Available also as a higher-performance S version, the Monster 1200 has a sleeker tank, a fully redesigned sports-style tail, an all-new technologically advanced headlight and a first-rate electronics package derived from the one on the 1299 Panigale.
Monster 797
(MSRP $10,195 CAD / Available April 2017) – Monster spirit and Ducati appeal are now accessible to everyone with the Monster 797. Sporty and compact yet incredibly stylish and up to date, the Monster 797 embodies all the allure of the Monster and represents the gateway to the Ducati world.
