The Ducati 100 Scrambler is an on/off road 50 cc (3.1 cu in) single cylinder two stroke motorcycle produced by the Italian manufacturer Ducati in 1970 and 1971. The model was produced to take advantage of the dirt bike craze in Italy at the time. The model used many parts from existing models, keeping R&D costs down.[3] A larger engined version, the 100 Scrambler, was also produced. Styling was similar the 125 Cadet Scrambler.[1] The model did not sell well and was soon dropped.[4]
