How does the bike make you feel when you are riding it. Perfect question that almost no one asks, thanks. Bloody fantastic is how it makes me feel. The pride in ownership is sky high. It is versatile and a joy to ride. The exhaust note when backing off the throttle, kind of a gentle backfiring, is priceless.

Yes but there's also suspension, braking, power, ergonomics and most important of all, how you feel when you ride it. There are motorcycles I've owned that weren't as good as the competition that I absolutely loved to ride. I'm sure there are plenty of other riders that feel the same way... I'm glad Ducati came out with a larger version of the Scrambler. It will definitely appeal to many.

From mcn I understand Triumph have a 1200 scrambler on the cards. But to me the main attraction of these scramblers is that they are standard (ok slightly old fashioned looking) bikes with round headlights, curvy tank, comfy but not laid back seating, and strong but easy going nature. Any offroad ability is unimportant. But you do need some performance. So instead, Triumph should put all those features around a Street Triple R engine and frame - and sell for less than £9.5K. Not some heavy but low power "new" Bonnie 1200 twin.

Surely it becomes more of a street bike where the original 800 is lighter and more fit for being thrown around off road what most buyers that fall prey to the dealer strategy of overselling you.

Looks like my perfect bike all round. If Yamaha would have brought out a more powerful and better kitted out MT03 660 (think Duke R) I reckon it would still be selling in shed loads rather than being dropped (the current MT03 is a totally different machine that happens to have the same name). That original Mt03 was ahead of the pack when it came to this style of bike but it lacked popularity because it was considered underpowered and the components were too basic. I had one for 5 years and those criticisms were valid but it was still a really fun bike with the potential for Yamaha to upgrade it into a truly great bike. A missed opportunity imo.

It's not. I did it because those roads in particular were like ice when they were wet. We don't get long during press shoots to get to grips with the corners we're shooting on and it's not like we can just go looking for somewhere else to ride if a corner is wet (it's the way press launch photography and video works). I opted to drag a foot because I felt more comfortable doing so. You should do whatever makes you feel comfortable and confident. Hope that helps. John

Excellent first ride review. However, I feel that bike launches are a bit like going out on a first date: he (or she) is on his best behaviour, and doesnt put a foot wrong, laughs at your jokes, is polite, but shows a spark of charisma, etc. What we all want to know is - what is it like to live with? We know that he (or she) may fart, we know we will have to put up with morning breath, but are there some deal breakers that we dont know about? Ducati has a mixed reputation in terms of living with a bike: expensive maintenance, unreliable (compared to UJM), and can be high maintenance - somewhat akin to dating a supermodel (I can only imagine, and no disrespect to supermodels - I am sure you have delightful personalities too). Anyhow, I have a beautiful committed relationship with my UJM - she is low maintenance, doesnt complain when I leave her out in the rain (or snow) , and treats me like a king on the open road. Of course, I respect her, and dont push her to the limit, but she is a comfortable ride and keeps me safe. She would probably be upset if she knew my motorbike internet history, but its OK to look, not touch. Isnt that true love?
