Title: Triumph Scrambler
Post by: Toxz Qwaste on June 24, 2011, 12:14:22 PM

Looking for input on the new(ish) Scrambler. I've been ogling it for a while and really like it.
Opinions are welcome. Experience with is welcomer (problems,service,etc...). If I buy used, I don't know what to look for.

Everybody has opinions! Me? I love 'em but don't own one. Reminds me of the second bike I ever got a ride on, a college roomie's Triumph back when. I've looked at them, but no nearby dealer and no trust fund to finance an addition to the garage.

I'd get one if I could.

You guys are attics.......lol.  It is a neat looking throwback bike though.  Seems like the placement of the pipes would be dicey.

I was emailing a guy on CL and he rode his from Vancouver to South America and back for 20000 kms. He loves it and is shipping it to Australia next month to ride there.

Reminds me of the old Honda CL350. Looks great. How much does it weigh?
