As it seems, the Bologna brand is working to expand the Scrambler family with the arrival of a new 1100 cc model. The Desert Sled 1100 won’t be radically different in style compared to the Desert Sled we already know.

The arrival of the Desert Sled with an engine of 1079 cc will give the bigger Scrambler a true off-road character, compared to the other versions already on sale, and with the use of an air-cooled engine with bigger displacement, although the weight should increase a bit, means the rider will have much needed power to have some fun off-road.

The arrival of a true Scrambler model from Ducati, means the Italian brand will get on its line-up a fierce competitor for the also brand-new Triumph Scrambler, based on the bigger Bonneville classic model.

According to rumors, Ducati will reveal the new Desert Sled 1100 at the EICMA show in Milan, as a 2019 model.
