They were happy for Krugger to interpret the look but he saw match. thus he opted to retain the Scrambler’s core vibe but crank it up to eleven.

This meant keeping the initial teardrop tank enhancing instead of substitution it. thus he unscrewed the tank’s aspect panels, bring to a halt the mounting brackets, and smoothened everything off. He’s additionally tweaked the Scrambler’s stance by dropping the front fork a hair beneath 2 inches.


Further back could be a handsewn steel tail unit mounted on a custom subframe. each the subframe and also the appendage have cutaways that house the stock Ducati Scrambler junction rectifier taillight which has been inverted. Krugger then formed a brand new seat and sent it off to Italian specialists Wild Hog to wrap in black animal skin.

The oil cooler’s been settled, the speedo’s currently on the hand aspect, and also the flip signals are ditched in favor of a combine of bar ends. The handlebars and cross-country foot pegs area unit Scrambler aftermarket items; the latter area unit rubber-mounted via custom brackets.






The airbox has been swapped for K&N filters, that concerned moving the O2 detector. a lot of of the wiring has been concealed—especially up front, wherever everything’s currently running within the handlebars. Look closely, and you’ll even spot chrome steel safety wire on numerous bits and items throughout the bike.

Rounding everything off could be a jaw dropping material gray paint job, with hand-painted yellow stripes.


Amazingly, Krugger wrapped the full project up in mere 2 months. Some guys have simply an excessive amount of talent.
