Conclusion - forever young
It is, of course, a toy, one for older children who want to (and can) spend at least 17,290 euros on their gift. Hear my words: Every penny of it is well invested!
Before I forget it: I have now studied the data sheet. The Duc is not only up to date in terms of engine and chassis, but also in terms of assistance systems: series are Wheelie Control, Curve ABS from Bosch, Traction Control, Ride By Wire and three driving modes ...
... not even this prejudice lasts more.
The test bike was provided to us by Ducati Hamburg.
It's a cruiser
Last but not least, You can believe Yamaha 100 percent – in the off-road it can do almost nothing better than normal bikes. The tyres (Bridgestone TW 101 in front and TW 152 in the rear) are already facing greater ambitions.
What remains: The Yamaha SCR 950 is a Scrambler-style cruiser. That's not a bad thing, but most of the extra goes into optics – and it must be worth it.
