Triumph Scrambler 1200

don't see why not

This popped in my feed..
Dang that bike sounds nice, even when it bounces off the rev limiter..
Geeze he pushes that thing in some spots.
Looks like a real good high speed cruiser.

He makes decent videos. The bike easily runs a 1 tooth bigger front cog if you aren't doing any slow stuff off road.

such a nice high rpm note.
I can’t believe how he commentates the whole thing so calmly.

In the comments he says stock, just header and pipe, rode sight unseen.
Both rider and bike does real well.

that’s a lot of big bikes on the beach.
I see he lost a number plate in one of the vids.
Does the roost radius clear the indicators ok.?

I really need to block this thread.
it plants tiny little seeds, to match my tiny little legs..

Top of Western Branch Rd. Today.

Lunch in Moore.

Well, the Karoo 3 rear isn't going to last much longer, may see about 3500 klms out of it. Been great on the road and fine off road, but wear is fairly quick. Lucky I picked it up cheap.


Thinking I may give the AX41 rear a go next, how have others been finding them so far?

Golden Tyre front has 5000 klms on it now and has slight cupping but has been excellent everywhere so far. Probably about a 1/3 worn now.

Anyone have experience with the Bridgestone AX41 tyres?

Larger swingarm mudflap works a treat!

I never liked the Karoo 3 ... it disappeared quick even on my 900 scram... the 800 tiger ate it. Not tried that battle ax... I’ve been trying all the motoz tractionators for awhile now. About to try the rallz front

I had just seen that yesterday.
The bike still floats on my radar. Like an unscratchable itch.
I wonder if next year it will get an update, maybe to a single version only, perhaps with factory lowering options.

went to GOMA on the weekend.
That seriously messes with a blokes “what do I want next” head.
Swings my thinking right back around to, it’s ok to want aesthetics in a bike.
Something I just don’t get from my GSA.

It doesn’t help that nowadays I spend more time looking at my bikes, rather than riding them.
Probably stare at my harley the most and ride it the least.
Yep.
Still need to figure out how to block this thread..

Updated Bonnevilles launched today; Scrambler 1200 updates coming April 13. If the Bonneville updates are any indication, we can expect some minor tweaking to shed a few pounds of weight and possibly bump up power slightly, but likely nothing much.
