The CR24I concept is a motorcycle in the purest Café Racer style, a natural evolution of the 2017 Scrambler with the same name. Its style is inspired by the motorcycles that made the legend of British clubs in the 60s, where enthusiasts challenged each other to complete a lap around the block in the time it took for a record to play on the jukebox.
The project, carried out entirely at the Ducati Style Centre, highlights the versatility of the Scrambler’s mechanical base, which in this interpretation is characterized by the 17″ front wheel with road tires and a half sporty handlebar with retro mirrors. The fairing mounted on the tank, narrow and enveloping, recalls Ducati icons from history, such as the Pantah and the 750 SS, reinterpreted to achieve a contemporary and post-heritage look that has always been the Scrambler’s heritage.
The seat transforms into a single-seater thanks to the detachable cover of the passenger section, reminiscent of the classic panetone seats of 70s sports motorcycles. The color completes a concept that appeals to enthusiasts more connected to the iconography of British rockers from the 60s.

Minimalist, functional in every detail, this Scrambler balances the simple and harmonious lines of the CR24I concept. The RR24I immediately takes the enthusiast back to the original dimension of the motorcycle: two wheels, a tank, an engine, and a handlebar. Nothing superfluous compared to the purest driving emotions, to fully experience the feeling of freedom that has always been fundamental to the Scrambler concept.
All aluminum parts are highlighted, technical and functional details are left visible to give authenticity to a concept that is entirely based on materials that are distinct to the eye and touch. The tank is stripped of its covers, replaced by a frame that allows for a tank bag to store the essentials, whether it’s a change of clothes or the tools needed to continue the journey. The passenger seat portion is removable to make room for a luggage rack, another detail that emphasizes the adventurous and essential spirit of the concept.
On the rear, the left side bag recalls the upcycling of empty barrels and the Termignoni high-mount exhaust accentuates the tracker look of this concept, complemented by Pirelli Scorpion Rally tires on 18“ and 17” wheels front and back, respectively, which, combined with the high and short front fender, promise to tackle any terrain.
