Our A2 license rider Alex spent a couple of weeks with the Scrambler Sixty2 to see how it stacks up against the A2 market. Note: Slip of the tongue the Scrambler Icon is 803cc.

We just did over 800 miles from LA, CA to the central coast area and back and my wife's Sixty2 (I have a Scrambler Icon 800) performed awesomely. If you are going to ride a long way, I suggest an Airhawk seat pad - cured our saddle pain - and is just a 100 bucks.

Really great review! You've gained a like and a sub. I'm the same generation as you and your talk of insurance and the like was really informative. No other reviewer or first rider disucsses things such as insurance.

Looks so much nicer than the KTM. I have watched this again. I forgot to give it a 'thumbs up' last time, so have one this time. I have come round to being convinced that the Scrambler is reliable, to the extent that I am going to buy the 800 in Chiang Mai for use in and around Chiang Rai in northern Thailand where I live. I've been banging on about Ducati unreliability for so long I've got out of date, so I have deleted my original comment and your thoughtful reply. How tall are you, please? Did you find the Scrambler roomy enough? Excellent review.

Could have just restricted the 883cc one to 46bhp
@alexjcorona26056 жыл бұрын
You're right you could restrict the 803cc (slip of the tongue), but insurance wise higher cc bikes still tend to hit your wallet in the end. Also I tend to find restricted bikes don't have the same character as bikes designed for purpose.The twitchy throttle on the 803 could catch novice riders out. Also, I had a chat with Ducati, and apparently they aren't doing restrictions on the 803s anymore really as they will steer people to the sixty2.

I feel bad for people who live in countries where you can't get a 1100cc rocketship for your first bike... My first time on a motorcycle was a 1100cc cruiser and the thing was huge, heavy and pretty damn fast... It left skid marks on the road and in my briefs, so much fun.

The KTM 390, especially a grand cheaper, is a no brainer. As would be a cb500F. Seriously Ducati.
@alexjcorona26056 жыл бұрын
Agreed, but styling wise the CB500 is pretty plain and the Duke 390 is more modern aggressive angles, so looks wise the Sixty2 wins in my opinion (if you like retro style). Whether the extra grand is worth that though depends on the person. If they hold value well in the second hand market, could help things.
@blipco56 жыл бұрын
AJ....I owned a cb500F recently. It is a great low powered bike that handles like a sport bike but overall it's very bland. Not too exciting. I sold it and bought the new z900. Now there's a bike!

Cornelius Maximilianus it's a European scheme that limits riders between 19-24 years old, getting a bike over 49hp. The idea being to stop inexperienced riders jumping on bikes they don't have the skills to handle and crashing them.
