The 2020 Ducati Scrambler Sixty2 arrived as an accessible entry point into the iconic Scrambler family, a lineage celebrated for its post-heritage styling and user-friendly nature. Positioned as a stepping stone for new riders or those seeking a lighter, more manageable machine, the Sixty2 directly competed with models like the Kawasaki Z400 and the Honda CB300R, aiming to capture riders with its distinctive Italian flair and approachable package. It retained the classic Scrambler aesthetic, offering a less intimidating option without sacrificing the brand's signature character.
At its core, the 2020 Scrambler Sixty2 was powered by a 399.00 ccm (24.35 cubic inches) engine, a detuned version of Ducati's L-twin, designed for smooth power delivery. This powerplant generated a respectable 40.00 HP (29.2 kW) at 8750 RPM and 34.00 Nm (3.5 kgf-m or 25.1 ft.lbs) of torque peaking at 8000 RPM. These figures ensured sufficient propulsion for an allround category motorcycle, making it capable for daily commutes and leisurely rides. The machine's wet weight stood at 167.0 kg (368.2 pounds), contributing to its nimble feel, and its 14.00 litres (3.70 gallons) fuel tank offered a decent range between fill-ups.
Riding the Sixty2 offered a comfortable and confidence-inspiring experience. Its low seat height of 790 mm (31.1 inches), which was its lowest adjustable setting, made it particularly welcoming for riders of varying statures, allowing for easy flat-footing at stops. The upright stance, characteristic of naked and scrambler-style bikes, provided good visibility and a relaxed posture, minimizing fatigue on longer journeys. The suspension was tuned for compliance, soaking up urban imperfections effectively, while the overall chassis felt predictable and easy to maneuver, making U-turns and navigating traffic straightforward.
The 2020 Ducati Scrambler Sixty2 was squarely aimed at new riders, those upgrading from smaller displacement machines, or experienced riders seeking a stylish and unintimidating everyday bike. Its approachable power, manageable weight, and comfortable ergonomics made it an excellent choice for learning and honing riding skills. For those drawn to the Ducati brand and the Scrambler aesthetic but desiring a more accessible and less potent package than its larger siblings, the Sixty2 presented a compelling and enjoyable option that delivered on its promise of an allround, user-friendly motorcycle experience.
