Triumph Scrambler?

[BlackPrince]

Have started fantasizing about it in green. Don't think I'll be getting one anytime soon tho - I think its more of a second bike (or to be blunt, an old man's sole bike) and I can't afford to run two machines atm.

Perhaps its just my McQueen fantasies, I dunno as I'm sure its nowhere near as good to ride as a modern superbike or even a Honda Hornet.

Anyone ever ridden/own one?

I have one and I wouldn't call myself old

Bought new last March and 1800 miles on it now due to too many other toys and working away a lot.



HP might not be high if you want to quote numbers but it has bags of bottom end grunt and the Arrows 2-1 gives a wonderful soundtrack (especially with my modified baffles). You are buying 2 cyl grunt here not 4 cylinder sewing machine whine with more horses than you can ever use.

Build quality is very good IMHO and up with Honda even when large chunks are fabricated in Thailand.

Ikon ajustable rears and front progressives already fitted and better than std (but I'm fussy). Now waiting for the warranty to expire then ECU remap along with pods and AI removal is on the cards

Gorgeous!
I see in your profile you have a Landy as well. Kudos for buying British
