Which motorcycle became the first model in Ducati’s long-running Scrambler revival when it launched in 2015?

The Ducati Scrambler Icon became the first model in Ducati’s modern Scrambler revival when it launched in 2015.

Ducati revived the Scrambler name for a family of approachable, retro-styled motorcycles with a relaxed riding position and simple visual design. The Icon was the core road-oriented version and served as the range’s defining entry point.

The modern motorcycle used an air-cooled 803 cc L-twin engine with desmodromic valve control. Its styling drew inspiration from Ducati Scramblers of the 1960s and 1970s, but its equipment included modern fuel injection, disc brakes, and electronic controls.

The Icon is often confused with later derivatives such as the Full Throttle, Café Racer, and Desert Sled. Those were additional versions of the revived family; the Icon was the central launch model.
