Ducati’s, project manager Federico Sabbioni, while speaking at the launch event of the Scrambler Sixty2 in Barcelona, said, 'We've got the engines, there is room to make something bigger. We'll see, we have a number of ideas and we're thinking about it... there is a volcano of ideas.'
Moreover, he added: 'I think we will continue to apply this kind of engine, we have in the past made a number of different displacements of this engine so we have experience and room to do a different version in terms of engine sizing. There's great possibility to stretch the brand with the 800cc engine, then of course there's also the possibility to make the bigger engine.'
Currently the largest Desmodue in Ducati's range is the air-cooled 800cc engine housed in the Scrambler.
However,the discontinued 1100cc Desmodue Evoluzione, discontinued in 2013 and used last in the Monster Evo, can be housed in the Supersize Scrambler with some tweaks to churns different power delivery and for making it Euro 4 compliant to make way in the future.
