What changes fundamentally in the Ducati Scrambler Full Throttle 2025?
The matte black look with bronze lettering is striking and evokes classic racing without seeming like fantasy. The number 62 on the tank pays homage to 1962, the year the Scrambler debuted. The overall vibe conveys less “pose” and more “ride this beast now.” If you like bikes that don’t try to impress with countless wings and huge screens, here’s a machine packed with substance.
Compared to other Scramblers, the Full Throttle is the loudest out-of-the-box in shouting “style and attitude,” without losing the lightweight feel and relaxed ergonomics of high handlebars and suspension travel friendly to rough roads. If you prefer the more minimalist base, compare it later with the Scrambler Icon Next-Gen to understand where the Full Throttle adds flavor and visual presence.
Is the 803cc with 72 hp enough? What’s the real-world performance like?
The Desmodue L-Twin, air-cooled, delivers 72 hp at 8,250 rpm and 48 lb-ft at 7,000 rpm. In other words: strong responses in low and mid-range speeds, lively revs up to the redline at 9,000 rpm, and that desmo valve clatter that’s addictive. It’s not a superbike, so what? The fun is in how it pushes through city traffic and secundary roads. For official specs and highlights, check the manufacturer’s page (specifications may vary by market): Scrambler Full Throttle.
In everyday riding, you’ll hardly notice a power shortage—unless you live on the track. Want to really get muddy? The brand also introduced a dedicated off-road model, the Desmo450 MX. But the Full Throttle handles light off-road riding comfortably and leaves you craving more.
What electronics and modes make riding safer?
It offers two riding modes (Road and Sport), four-level traction control, and cornering ABS—that smart ABS that understands incline and saves your skin if you make a mistake. It’s the kind of tech you don’t see but appreciate when the s**t hits the fan. If you want to dive deeper into the concept, check out Bosch’s Motorcycle Stability Control: MSC Cornering ABS.
In practice, I set it to moderate settings, and the bike remained docile without turning into a “bathtub.” If you prefer a more brute-force approach with a powerful engine and sharp electronics, compare the electronic package and chassis with the Ducati XDiavel V4 2025 to understand the difference in philosophy within the brand itself.
Is $12,395 worth it? What comes in the different versions?
The Full Throttle starts at $12,395, with optional accessories (racing exhaust and muffler, for example) easily pushing the price close to $15,229. If you’re looking for the more affordable entry point, the Icon Dark begins at $9,995. Yes, some competitors offer more “numbers” for the dollar, but few deliver this level of insanely charismatic character. If your vibe is switching to urban electric bikes and exploring a different approach, see what dedicated brands are doing at LiveWire and Zero are redefining urban e-bikes.
The extra cost here pays for the black/bronze look, modern electronic package, and Ducati’s charm. And no, it’s not just “badge tax.” The bike has a lightweight feel, ergonomic comfort, and that Twin engine personality that gives it character.

Who are the direct competitors, and what does each offer?
There’s a sea of fun, more affordable options: Honda Transalp (~$9,999), XR650L (~$6,999), CRF300L Rally (~$6,499), Triumph Scrambler 400XC/400X (~$5,895–$6,695) and 900 (~$11,495), Kawasaki KLR650 (~$6,899), Suzuki DR650S (~$7,299). Each leans toward different uses (more trail, more adventure, more road). If your heart beats for a classic style with a focus on tough off-road, also check out the reimagined rival in the BMW R 12 G/S.
Ultimately, few bikes combine a modern retro look, the sound and mechanical feel of desmo, plus smart electronics—all in a package that makes you laugh like an idiot under your helmet. That’s the “dirty little secret” of the Full Throttle.

FAQ – Common Questions
- Can it handle gravel roads? Yes, at a moderate pace. It’s a scrambler, not a pure enduro. Tires and riding style make a difference.
- Is it comfortable for daily commuting? Yes. High handlebars, relaxed seating position, and smooth engine help in traffic and medium commutes.
- Does the engine get very hot? Being air-cooled, you’ll feel it in hot weather and heavy traffic, but nothing out of the ordinary for this concept.
- Is it worth getting the Icon Dark and customizing? If your budget allows, the Icon Dark is a great base. The Full Throttle saves time with a complete visual package that’s well thought out.
- Fuel efficiency? It depends on riding style. Mixed use can be reasonable; here, the focus is on torque delivery and riding experience, not “eco-run.”
My take: the Full Throttle 2025 is about instant enjoyment and style that doesn’t need permission. The engine may not scare you with numbers, but the overall package provides responses, sound, and mechanical vibrations that remind you why you love motorcycles. The price is high compared to utility-focused rivals, but it rewards you with an emotional experience and finish that makes you look back every time you get off.
