Ventura have released a version of their strap on luggage for the Ducati Scrambler. Yes, we are talking about the Ducati Scrambler, a bike that is praised for being easy to ride, compact and lightweight and not for its practicality. Although the Scrambler range has potential for a weekend away, with a compact seat and no secure strapping points, the Scrambler offers little concession to carrying luggage thanks to Ventura, that’s about to change.

Ducati’s new Scrambler is one of the best new bikes on the market; it’s a fun bike to ride with lots of low to mid-range power, great styling, and most importantly, it’s light. But sadly, the Scrambler is not a very practical bike. Its stripped-down retro look doesn’t lend itself to bulky hard cases or any other luggage.

Thanks to Ventura, that’s about to change with the company’s new Pack System. The Ventura system combines the best features of hard and soft luggage: a sturdy rack to hold the load securely, plus a range of lightweight, soft and semi-soft bags that are easy to handle off the bike and can be stashed away when not in use.
It adds no extra width to the bike, is much lighter than hard cases and won’t affect the machine’s handling or performance.

The Pack’s unique ‘slide on, ride off’ fitment eliminates the need for unreliable and potentially damaging straps/bungee cords and doesn’t use a fiddly lock and key system, so it’s quick and easy to detach and re-attach.
When riding solo, the pack sits over the pillion seat keeping the weight closer to the bike’s centre of gravity, for a stable ride. When carrying a passenger simply flip the bag round, so it sits on the rack.

When the journey ends, and for daily/commuting use, both Pack and Rack can be removed in seconds, leaving only the discrete L-Brackets behind. The rider then has the option of fitting a pillion Grab Handle or a Sport Rack, for transporting small loads.
