Ducati Scrambler Sixty2
The Ducati Scrambler Sixty2 has a top speed of 155 km/h, produces 41 hp and weighs 166 kg. Motoryk rates it 7/10.
De Ducati Scrambler Sixty2 werd in 2016 geïntroduceerd als een instapvariant met kleinere cilinderinhoud van de Scrambler-familie, gericht op jongere en nieuwere rijders en op markten met licentiebeperkingen voor beginnende motorrijders. De Sixty2, genoemd naar het jaar 1962, toen Ducati voor het eerst een Scrambler produceerde, werd aangedreven door een 399 cc luchtgekoelde V-twin-motor, waardoor deze toegankelijk was voor A2-licentiehouders in Europa. Het werd na 2018 stopgezet omdat Ducati zijn Scrambler-assortiment stroomlijnde, maar het diende als een belangrijk gateway-model voor het merk Ducati.

Wat kopers moeten weten
399cc Beginner-Friendly Engine
The Sixty2 uses a 399cc L-twin specifically sized to fall under the EU A2 license restriction, making it ideal for new riders in Europe. Despite the smaller displacement, it still delivers that authentic Ducati L-twin character and sound.
Watch for Electrical Gremlins
Some owners report intermittent electrical issues, particularly with the instrument cluster and battery drain if the bike sits unused for extended periods. Always check the charging system and inspect wiring harness condition before buying used.
Softer Resale Value
The Sixty2 depreciates faster than its larger 803cc Scrambler sibling, largely due to its niche appeal as a learner-focused bike. This actually benefits buyers — used examples can be found at very reasonable prices with relatively low mileage.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"Charming entry-level Ducati that rewards careful used buying."
$4,500-$6,500 usedThe Sixty2 was Ducati's attempt to lure newer riders into the Bologna fold with a detuned 399cc L-twin and genuine Italian styling. On paper it sounds cynical, but in the metal it actually works. The motor is genuinely characterful for its size — that desmo bark is unmistakable at idle, and the torque curve suits urban riding better than you'd expect. It's also surprisingly light and flickable, which makes it genuinely fun rather than just a learner placeholder. Used examples are plentiful now and prices have dropped sensibly. That said, do your homework. The throttle-by-wire system on early units had glitches, and service intervals get ignored more than you'd like on these budget-entry Ducatis. Check the desmo service history religiously — a skipped valve check is expensive trouble. Cosmetic damage is common too; these attract new riders who drop things. For the right buyer at the right price, it's a charming, approachable machine that doesn't insult your intelligence.
