　　The Ducati 450 Scrambler was an on/off-road motorcycle manufactured by Ducati between 1969 and 1974. The bike was also known in the American market as the Ducati Jupiter and the Ducati 450 SCR in the European market.

　　It was powered by a 436cc single-cylinder bevel drive SOHC engine, and its total production accounted for around 11,000 units. In addition, the motorcycle was also manufactured under license by Moto Trans, a company located in Spain.

　　The Ducati 450 Scrambler was used in several racing categories, including enduro, flat tracks, and scrambles. In 1973, the bike received several improvements, such as an electronic ignition, a dual brake on the front wheel, and lights and instruments borrowed from the Mark 3 model.

　　In 1970, the Italian motorcycle maker released the Ducati 450 Scrambler, a cafe racer made by Borgo Panigale, wearing features such as a round headlight up front, a one-piece dual seat, side-mounted rear shocks, a single exhaust system, and wire-spoke wheels.

　　As for the power figures, the 1970 Ducati 450 Scrambler had installed a 436cc four-stroke air-cooled one-cylinder engine underneath its fuel tank. The engine was managed by a Dell'Orto carburetor boasting 23 hp with a peak force at 6,500 rpm.

　　The bike's front end was handled by a 35 mm Marzocchi fork with one 180 mm drum braking unit, while the rear end was driven by twin Marzocchi three-position adjustable shocks and a 160 mm drum unit, acting as suspension and braking power.
