Nicknamed “The Italian Job,” the Speedtractor 750 Ducati Scrambler is a Japanese take on a Mediterranean classic. To be precise, the light scrambler is a custom build of the 1988 Ducati 750 Sport. The mid-capacity motorbike was stripped to its engine and trellis frame and then reworked for navigating the streets of Tokyo. The hubs, brake caliper hangers, and rims were machined in order to add spoked wheels, a 17-inch Akront rim, and twin discs and a Brembo caliper. In its revised form, the motorcycle has a single seat and a tail rack, a stainless steel two-in-one pipe, and wide handlebars and foot controls for ease of use. Painted blue and white, the design has a crisp, sporty look to match its urban scrambler capabilities.
