This surreal entity goes by the name of Essenza.
At this point, it’s quite safe to say that the Italian moto wizards over at Milan’s South Garage are no amateurs. In the past, we looked at a magnificent work of two-wheeled art born under this workshop’s roof, namely a glorious Harley-Davidson Sportster 1200C with a cafe racer attitude. Sure enough, the project in question does a wonderful job at being a true testament to the team’s remarkable level of skill and sheer commitment.
Now, let’s take a second to drool over yet another one of SG’s fascinating undertakings. This masterpiece revolves around Ducati’s fierce Scrambler 800 – a genuine superstar in its segment. It is powered by a fearsome L-twin SOHC behemoth, with four desmodromic valves per cylinder and a healthy displacement of 803cc.
At around 8,250 revs, the air-cooled fiend will gladly generate up to 75 hp, along with a respectable torque output of 50 pound-feet (68 Nm) at 5,750 rpm. This force travels to a chain final drive by means of a six-speed transmission. Without going into any other details, we'll go ahead and conclude that the Scrambler 800 isn’t messing around.
South Garage kicked things off by crafting an outlandish front fairing, which brings about some serious steampunk vibes. The angular aluminum item incorporates an LED headlight module that keeps it just about as classy as it gets.
Next, the surgeons proceeded to modify the bike’s subframe. The tweaked unit supports a single-seater leather saddle, as well as a neat tail section with an integrated LED taillight. Additionally, you will find a pair of clip-on handlebars and adjustable foot pegs, besides a bespoke hand-shaped aluminum fuel tank that makes everything come together as a complete package.
Last but not least, a stainless-steel two-into-one-into-two exhaust system was fabricated in-house, while the Scrambler’s brakes were honored with an assortment of top-shelf Brembo components. By fiddling with its suspension, the creature’s stance was adjusted to fit the desired configuration. SG’s sinister machine was codenamed Essenza.
All things considered, this bad boy’s design language certainly isn’t something you’ll get to see on a daily basis!
