| Type 23
The Type 23 is our first Ducati build, inspired by a client who fell in love with its initial sketch. We aimed to create something unique, exploring the integrated seat cover concept first introduced in our Type 17 model. This feature gives the bike a distinctive silhouette, offering two “personalities”: a sleek, covered look when stationary and a performance-ready stance when riding. The cover, designed for storage rather than travel, protects the seat’s delicate materials like suede or alcantara.
The base is a 2024 Scrambler Pro 1100, chosen for its air-cooled simplicity and slim profile. The bike features Öhlins suspension (lowered 30mm in front), a detabbed stock frame, and a custom rear subframe housing bespoke bodywork. The swingarm is from a Ducati 821, requiring a new shock mount for alignment. Wheels are custom-built by Rotobox, with Brembo brakes and stainless hoses ensuring premium performance.
Highlights include:
Custom aluminum yoke with integrated clip-ons
Truclite headlight with a 3D-printed cover
Relocated speedometer on the fuel tank
Handcrafted aluminum bodywork, fenders, and rear light
Gilles rearsets and a 2-1 titanium exhaust (1.8kg)
Remapped engine for smooth, powerful performance
Ergonomic seat and raised clip-ons for comfort on longer rides
The bike is considerably lighter than stock, blending usability and style. Limited to 23 units, the T23 includes a matching Hedon helmet, display plinth, and storage for the seat cover. Orders are open via info@autofabrica.com.
