2019 Ducati Scrambler - Top 5ish things you must know!

[@albertoj.mollinedo4116]

Dude seriously you have a smooth professional radio speaker voice and pace, it’s a shame really you don’t have way more subscribers. I could listen to you all day on all bike related videos I watch LOL

[@StatementPlus]

haha thanks brother. Appreciate it. I'll try to do more vids. Cheers

[@earnold0807]

Great video - thanks for the insight, looking to get one hopefully today! If you could do a video about removing the baffle and riding that would be awesome! Great work

Just get a decent slipon looks better sounds better and a couple more Hprsepower. The cafe is not as good as the other models due to 17 inch wheel, and should not be classed as a scrambler as it is a road bike with that small front wheel and forward leaning posture and clipons. It is a tt road and racetrack style bike with cafe racer styling, a terribly short turning curve much less than the nightshift desert sled or icon models, but, if flat roads and windies, a joy to ride. I own a nightshift and one of these face racers but i put high bars on it (blue ones), and pirelli scorpion knobblies, and dropped the seat height to make it more able to withstand offroad style and bad road Asia style territory, because in Thailand there are lamp posts hiding under piles of leaves in the road, and sometimes a river decides to cross the road too. I would say next time i want a cafe racer i buy one that is meant to be one, not a scrambler that tries to be one. All the ducati scrams are fantastic, but this one is an elephant in the cupboard a bit asa scrambler is offroad and a cafe racer is a village country road pub crawl nip from one stop to the next bike. Mind you, i do love both my Ducatis, not one above the other, it is just i had to modiufy the fave racer because i live on an island in the Andaman ocean that has terrible roads and as it stood with the bald street tires it did a tank slapper on me wobble of death on day 1 so i changed the suspension, tires and handlebars, and now its great, but the 1 inch smaller front wheel to the nightshift is immensely noticeable on bumps and potholes and waves in the road, and has shown me how clipons andf 17" front wheels are 70 percent of the reason for tank slappers, and that large front wheels, and wide handlebars are the secret to control and no tank slappers. Admittedly i forget i am not a kld anymore and still try to do 200 kmh all the time so the tank slappers are probably normal. Currently owning a nightshift 2022 and a 2020 cafe racer from Ducati, a Royal Enfield gt continental customised by K-tech Thailand,turned into a Brat bike cafe racer, and a Scram 411, a Harley Davidson 1200 sportster (883 converted to 1275cc customised two tone), and a Yamaha XSR 155.

Good video..I just picked up a 2022 NightShift, and I am digging it. I upgraded the exhaust with a Competition werkes slip-on, added grip puppies, and swapped the stock seat out for a Corbin. I have yet to find a bike that is perfect. Thanks for the video.

[@kensantiago132]

Thank you! Informative and presented well.

[@StatementPlus]

Thanks for watching and the nice comment mate!

Having the money to buy a Ducati one should invest in a good slip on exhaust/muffler (as i did) and this increases the grunt, an extra 2 or 3 horsepower, and is an upgrade instead of a cheap hack. One thing you did not mention as an owner which i wish to mention asn an owner, is the silver plastic tail cowl cover is so badly fitted to the seat it is not tight, it is a very cheapo attempt from ducati, and it has gaps, and wobbles, as do the crappy two black plastic side panels underneath the tail at the side of bike behind the 54. If you cant find neutral it is because as in many cases, the clutch is not disengaged (too tight and slipping), and this also causes loss of torque/acceleration at high revs. Your clutch needs relaxing a bit, and when you pull the clutch lever you should hear a small click after a cm or so. I hear so many people talk about hard to find neutral. I thought that too with both my Ducatis, and one of my other bikes, then i found out it is the clutch. Some service mechanics tighten the clutch too much, even in the assembly line of ducati (Thailand). If neutral is hard to find = clutch too tight

[@rauljacobs5198]

How do you get rid of the baffles in the exhaust pipe?

[@Merrykhalismas]

Great video. Can you do one video on how the exhaust sounds like with one baffle removed?

[@earnold0807]

Khalis Rosli agreed!

[@gonnahavemesomefun]

Khalis Rosli ye a before and after would be great

[@mrashubabu]

So they make such color models in 2022 version.

[@vaddseth]

Will it affect the condition of the bike if you remove the exhaust baffle? I removed it on my bike and now it seems to be running a bit choppy.

[@mikemcfarland5551]

Going to test ride one today I have to choose to sell my 72 Norton Commando if I want to buy one. Hard choice

[@StatementPlus]

Your norton probably has a lot more character but perhaps finicky to maintain? Either way good luck on your decision!

[@azzpizz5057]

How does back seat cover come off..? If it still has that option

[@StatementPlus]

Hi, it simply pops off, it's just clipped on.

[@landjeetkaram2256]

Can u upload ur exhaust sound with one removed?

Could you upload a video of how did you remove the DB killer / baffle pls?

[@devaplan]

A quiet exhaust is not a problem.

[@mordinsolus9414]

Not referring to author, but a lot of people complain about the neutral on Ducati bikes. It takes time to learn it. ThatS a characteristic of Ducati. every Ducati I’ve ridden have that thing. Coming from Honda cbr I was surprised.

[@joaohugo92]

How about no PVC pipe inside the exhaust 🤔

[@mikewhite255]

Would you ride this 160 miles per day on the highway ? Asking for a friend lol. My commute to work is 80 Miles each way and I want a bike for the summer commute. I love this bike and want it bad but wondering if it's practical for commuting 80 Miles each way five or more days a week?

[@StatementPlus]

Haha, honestly no I would not lol. The seat isn't that comfortable and it being a cafe style, just wind ramming the whole way. You'll get pretty miserable. Maybe there is an aftermarket windscreen I'm not sure, but it'd ruin the look.

[@chitownlew]

He says the foot pegs are adjustable, then doesn't say if you can move the foot pegs up or down. WTF. Well, are the footpegs adjustable yes or no?

[@allnighterist]

what about engine heat? does it heat up too much?

[@StatementPlus]

Very good question. It does get quite hot so at really long red lights you gotta position yourself a bit to not take all the heat. Of course once you're riding it's totally fine. Cheers

[@putragraphy4883]

toolkit is actually placed and hooked under the seat, not in the compartment :)

[@StatementPlus]

Not on the '19 cafe, it's in the compartment under the pillion section of the seat . At least when i got it.

[@putragraphy4883]

@@StatementPlus ahh okay man. Most important thing is not to leave your toolkit. Check under your actual seat. There shoud be rubber lead and hook that can hold the toolkit together

[@StatementPlus]

@@putragraphy4883 Ah ok, I will check under the seat for the rubber leads. Thanks man.

[@StatementPlus]

I can confirm on this 2019 Cafe the under seat is different and you cannot strap the tool kit. Bummer!

[@putragraphy4883]

@@StatementPlus damnit. No rubber strap at all???

[@phuctranvlog462]

Hello. I like it Thank

[@anoobnalinakshan9036]

Why didn't you start the beast 😤

[@swansmeister]

should have started the bike so we could here how it sounds without the baffles.

[@jimbeam4111]

Nice bike

[@user-gt3nj5nu6o]

i hate this damn color
