This week?s bikes come in all shapes and sizes. We?ve got a Ducati Scrambler Cafe Racer from Poland, a Suzuki Thunder 125 chopper from Indonesia, and a custom mini-bike from a small Hungarian village. Plus we take a look at BMW Motorrad?s fourth Pure&Crafted show.

Ducati Scrambler 800 by Dixer Parts The oddly named Ducati Scrambler Cafe Racer was an attempt by Ducati to inject cafe racer styling into their Scrambler 800 platform?but it wasn’t nearly as cool as it could have been. Now the Polish workshop Dixer Parts have put their own spin on it, giving it a razor-sharp look, and upgrading its running gear in the process.

Dixer’s Scrambler actually uses Ducati’s OEM fuel tank, seat, removable tail cover and side covers, because those are the parts that actually look good. But they’ve transformed the bike visually with a new front fairing, mounted on special 3D printed brackets. The Ducati’s killer new livery is noteworthy too. Laid down by Lukasz at LC Grafix, the black and gold paint actually has a holographic effect that pops when the light hits it just right.

But the biggest mod here is one of the subtlest. Dixer swapped the front end for the Showa forks and twin Tokico disc brakes from a Kawasaki ZX6-R. Dixer manufacturers brake discs that are most commonly used for stunt riding, so a pair of those went on too. This Scrambler now has much better stopping power than before, and a full range of adjustment on the forks.
