Ducati Scrambler 1100 discontinued globally, goes off sale in India
Ducati has pulled the plug on the Scrambler 1100 in global markets, which also marks its demise in India. Ducati India has confirmed the development and has also delisted the motorcycle from its website. The Ducati Scrambler 1100 was not upgraded to meet the upcoming Euro5+ emission norms for Europe, which means it would also not comply with the BS6.2 norms for India. The Scrambler 1100 was fully imported into India and has been discontinued after an eight-year run.
Ducati Scrambler 1100 Discontinued
The Ducati Scrambler 1100 was first introduced in 2018 and drew power from the 1,079 cc L-Twin engine tuned for 85 bhp at 7,500 rpm and 88 Nm of peak torque at 4,750 rpm. The motor is paired with a 6-speed gearbox and a slipper clutch. This engine has been around since 2009 and previously powered the Hypermotard and Monster 1100.

x`xIt received a comprehensive update for the Scrambler 1100 with additions such as an oil-cooling system, ride-by-wire, and more safety aids. The updated engine was introduced on the Scrambler 1100 in 2018 and has been on sale since. Ducati Scrambler 800 will remain on sale
While the Scrambler 1100 has been taken off the shelves, Ducati will continue selling the 803 cc version, which is also the more popular option. The second-generation Ducati Scrambler is currently on sale with the motor churning out 72 bhp at 8,250 rpm and 65 Nm of peak torque at 7.000 rpm. The motor is paired with a 6-speed gearbox.
The Ducati Scrambler 800 is priced from ₹ 9.97 lakh, going up to ₹ 12.60 lakh (ex-showroom). The bike is available in four variants - Icon Dark, Icon, Full Throttle, and Nightshift - bringing different paint options, among other changes to the bike.
The Ducati Scrambler range has always been a niche offering, and the Scrambler 1100 didn't offer the most power for the price. The last models were priced between ₹ 13.40 lakh and ₹ 16 lakh (ex-showroom). It'll be interesting to see if a more powerful Scrambler is in the works with a more modern engine.

Suzuki Unveils 2026 GSX-R1000R with Major Upgrades and 40th Anniversary Edition
Suzuki has taken the wraps off the 2026 GSX-R1000R, marking an important step in the evolution of its flagship supersport machine. With a host of mechanical and electronic upgrades, the latest iteration promises to refine the riding experience while also celebrating four decades of the iconic GSX-R lineage with a special 40th Anniversary Edition. Visually, the 2026 GSX-R1000R stays true to its aggressive supersport stance, but it's the details under the skin that set this version apart. At the heart of the update is the tried-and-tested 999.8cc inline-four engine, now tweaked to meet Euro 5+ emission norms. While Suzuki hasn't revealed a bump in peak power or torque figures, the changes ensure improved efficiency and compliance without sacrificing performance.

Also new is the adoption of a Showa Balance Free Rear Cushion Lite (BFRC-Lite) suspension setup, replacing the older unit for better damping and more precise handling. Paired with Showa's Balance Free Fork at the front, the GSX-R1000R should deliver sharper dynamics through corners and more confidence at high speeds. The 2026 Suzuki GSX-R1000R features updated suspension and a bi-directional quickshifter for improved performance and handling. To mark the 40th anniversary of the GSX-R series, Suzuki has also introduced a limited-edition variant of the GSX-R1000R. This special model features a retro-inspired blue and white livery with red highlights, a nod to the original GSX-R750 that debuted in 1985. Additional visual touches include gold-finished front forks, a blacked-out engine casing, and special badging to commemorate the milestone. Globally, the new GSX-R1000R is expected to be available by early 2026. While Suzuki India has yet to confirm if the updated model or the anniversary edition will be launched in the country, expectations remain high given the growing interest in litre-class sportbikes.

Ducati Panigale V4 awarded 2025 Red Dot Design Award. Take a look…
The Ducati Panigale V4 has been awarded the Red Dot Design Award for 2025. The Red Dot Design Award is one of the world's largest design competitions, which is divided into three disciplines: Product Design, Brands & Communication Design and Design Concept. The judges of the competition mentioned, 'The Panigale V4 impresses with a precise design language that successfully combines aerodynamic functionality and stylistic clarity." The 2025 Ducati Panigale V4 went on sale in the Indian market in March 2025. It gets two variants, the Standard and the S. Priced at ₹29.99 lakh and ₹36.50 lakh respectively (both ex-showroom), the motorcycles are sold in India through the CBU route. What cosmetic updates are featured on the 2025 Ducati Panigale V4? Ducati states that the new Panigale V4 draws inspiration from the 916 Panigale. Consequently, some lines from the 916 have been carried over to the seventh generation of Panigale. The bodywork has been completely redesigned, now including winglets and a new diamond-shaped fuel tank. The motorcycle also sports a new set of slimmer LED headlamps. Also Read : New-gen Ducati Monster with V2 engine spied testing in Europe: What you should know What distinguishes the Ducati Panigale V4 S from the Standard version? The primary difference lies in the suspension components. The Standard model features fully adjustable Showa BPF 43 mm forks at the front and a fully adjustable Sachs shock at the rear. In contrast, the S trim is equipped with Ohlins NPX forks upfront and Ohlins TTX36 at the rear. Additionally, the two bikes differ in their forged aluminium wheels, which help reduce weight; the V4 S is 4 kg lighter, weighing 187 kg. What are the modifications to the chassis of the 2025 Ducati Panigale V4? The frame and swingarm have been redesigned, which has reduced lateral stiffness. Purists may be disappointed that the single-piece swingarm has been replaced with a new double-sided hollow unit. Ducati claims this new swingarm provides better stability, mechanical grip, and traction. Also Read : Ducati Scrambler 1100 discontinued globally, goes off sale in India What braking hardware is used on the Ducati Panigale V4? The Panigale V4 is equipped with Brembo's Hypure callipers, regarded as some of the best in the industry. They are lighter, feature a new pad retention system, and have improved ventilation. Customers can also opt for callipers in various colours, including red, yellow, black, and gold. What powers the new Ducati Panigale V4? It is powered by a 1,103 cc Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine that is now Euro5+ compliant, producing 213 bhp at 13,500 rpm and 120 Nm at 11,250 rpm. The engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox with a standard quickshifter. Check out Upcoming Bikes In India. First Published Date:
