Zard Debuts New Zuma Exhaust For Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled

Ducati's Desert Sled sets itself apart from the rest of Ducati's Scrambler lineup thanks to the fact that it's a bike that's actually equal parts show and go. Now, I'm not dissing the rest of Ducati's Scrambler model range, but it can't be denied that the other models in the Scrambler range are more of style and lifestyle icons. That said, aftermarket options for the likes of the Desert Sled are more off-road focused, and as such, extra burly.

Such is the case with the newest exhaust option from Zard. Dubbed the Zuma, this slip-on exhaust system accentuates the Desert Sled's scrambler aesthetic, giving it a sort of vintage-enduro look and feel. The Zuma slip-on pipe is made of stainless steel and maintains Euro5 homologation while being lighter. The Zuma will weigh 4.7 kg less than the Desert Sled's regular exhaust when it is in compliance with Euro 5. A "Racing" variant is also available, saving 4.9 kilograms. The best thing is that neither the Euro 5 nor the Racing editions need any aftermarket modifications or ECU remapping.
