Ducati Malaysia has also confirmed that the Multistrada V4 and Monster will be launched sometime this year
Introduced late last year as part of Ducati’s 2021 Scrambler lineup, the Ducati Scrambler Nightshift has finally arrived on Malaysian shores. The new model brings with it “the spirit of stealth and the dark of night”, as depicted by its Aviator Grey colour scheme.
To further highlight its rugged look, the shade is matched with a straight, narrow handlebar with Cafe Racer mirrors, side number plates, as well as spoked wheels wrapped in Pirelli MT60 tyres with a knobby tread pattern.
There’s also a Cafe Racer-style flat seat, which Ducati says is comfortable enough for both rider and passenger.
Power comes from the tried-and-tested 803 cc, L-twin Desmodromic engine that makes 73 hp at 8,250 rpm and 66.2 Nm of torque at 5,250 rpm. The tubular steel Trellis frame is mated to a 41-mm Kayaba USD fork and a rear shock with pre-load adjustable.
As for braking, there’s a single 330 mm disc with a four-piston calliper at the front, and a single 245 mm disc with a floating single-piston calliper at the rear. Bosch Cornering ABS is equipped as standard.
Available for booking at all Ducati dealerships nationwide, the Scrambler Nightshift is priced at RM65,900 not including road tax and insurance.
What’s next for Ducati Malaysia?
According to Dennis Michael, Head Of Ducati Malaysia, the company aims to finish the year strong with two more product launches – the Multistrada V4 and Monster.
