I was a 15 yr. old teenager when I purchased a 1974 CL450 Honda Scrambler. I didn't even have a drivers license , a motorcycle license or motorcycle learners permit yet. I found the bike at a place called Ron's Cycle in North Smithfield , RI with my grandfather. Ron's allowed me to put the bike on layaway and pay so much every week until the bike was paid off , then I took it home. I rode that scrambler through the woods , down old railroad beds , in gravel pits etc. until I finally got my learners permit and could legally ride it on the street , then I rode it everywhere! I've owned a lot of other motorcycles since then ( Dual Sports - choppers - Cruisers - Big Bore Adventure bikes - Goldwings etc. ) but none of them compare to the fun I had on that CL450 scrambler when I was a teen. Since then I've always had a special place in my heart for scramblers. I absolutely love the new Triumph 900 Scrambler , it reminds me of the good ole days. I'm not physically able to ride anymore , but if I was I'd be siting on a Triumph Street Scrambler for sure! JT
Someone put this guy in charge of TH-cam "how-to" video`s! Straight and to the point ...no techno music, isn`t in love with himself etc. Thanks man, I appreciate the video, and its just what I needed to help me pull the trigger on one! Cheers, and well done!
Own the previous model.. This bike have character.. Not very fast but does give you the feeling of satisfaction after every ride. Glad triumph upgrade all the short coming of the previous bike. Shows that they heard the voice of the customer.
Triumph just keeps making it harder to decide on a bike. Thruxton R? Street Triple R? Street Scrambler? Speed Twin? Stop it Triumph, you're killing me.
Funny how cars and motorcycles adverts most of the times are taken in Portugal! Hell of a country, miss the people there, miss the food, miss the weather, miss the not sue people chat, miss the smile, miss the chats and miss riding my motorbike there. Thanks for the video!
Essentially did that with my 1982 Tiger Trail - changed the rear sprocket, fitted breadbox tank,set of up swept pipes and got rid of high front mudguard. Single Amal carb, 1 tickle, 1 kick bang 1st every time. Bike had loads of character, super reliable and never had to thrash it to enjoy it. Like the new one and simple, basic instrument set up.
Last May I bought a left over 2017 here in Connecticut USA .5000 k so far on her . Glad to hear they have made some improvements on my very very wonderful "Back Road Roadster.. I ride this bike on dirt & gravel and our bumpy bumpy back farm lanes ..It is beautiful here and this is a perfect bike for the horsey gentleman farmer estate land .. I love mine . The sound is warm and English and goes well with the quieter local sports cars .. It fits fine with the Morgan club of America ... .. Light enough for playing around and steady enough for longer rides .. I wish it had a larger tank and glad the new ones have better breaks upfront and more spring action in the forks .. Well if you have ridden horses you know how to post when you see a bump coming at any rate .. :)
Simply put, I bloody love these bikes. I have the 17 model, as you say, it has this ability to make you feel great and put a natural smile on your face. Along with a few basic custom extras, it's an absolute keeper. Could I justify getting rid of mine to replace with the 19 model, I'm not convinced due to the financial loss, but I'd be interested in taking a Scrambler 1200 for a spin!!
@@johnhogan8177 My thoughts exactly ..Fox on the back and new forkwork up front and Brembos .. I think I will enjoy my left over 17 at its reduced price as it is ... I added center stand heated grips and the bag on the back and am riding all winter ... A little salt on the black finish looks fine :)
Top review. I really like the way you capture the reason that someone might choose a particular model, and this bike truly embodies the reason I, and likely most life long bikers, ride. I should really just trade in my bike, get this, and be done with it.
I have had ‘scrambler fever’ for years but have never owned one. Recently went to the International Moto Show in LA so that I could sit on the new Triumph Scrambler.... but sitting on it did not do much. Watching your review moves me to want to sell my ‘17 T100. Well done🤙🏻 Your video crew has also done a stellar job, I would keep them🤗
Good job ! Another honest review of a decent bike. It's very difficult to convey the character of a bike in a video review and I think you guys have been able to do just that in the reviews of the old (2017) and the new Triumph scramblers
I'm in the market to buy a Scrambler and thought this was an great, honest review of what this bike is about. Clearly it will not meet everyone's needs, but it sounds like just what I'm looking for.
Great review. I love this guy's no bollocks attitude in all of his reviews. Just what I needed to know as I am currently considering a nice used 2017 model against a brand new bike.
Hi thanks for the video. I have a chance of a 2012 triumph scrambler once I’ve done my Cbt. Would this make a good learner bike. I also only have a 29 inside leg so might be to big. Where I live once you do your Cbt and over 18 you can drive any bike.
Thanks for the review - I love the combo of stats and emotion - potential buyers want to know how it feels to ride - numbers alone don’t make me buy. I was wondering about this versus the road-biased new 1200 scrambler - are Triumph just competing against themselves here, or are they going for different target markets?
What do you think of this vs. the Ducati Monster 821 for city driving? I am looking at this, Ducati Monster 821, and the Ducati Scrambler - Also waiting around to see how electric bikes shape up this year looking to buy this year. Will be my first bike but wanting something I don't have to upgrade every year along the way. I am driving like 2 miles to work and just weekend driving in a city.
Its cold and icy but sunny outside and this upload wants me to go out on my bike but the gritters have been out!!! Think i might stay in bed and watch some more of your vids 👍
Does the upcoming new Scrambler 1200 range make you think differently? I already have a Thruxton R, and really tempted to replace (or add 😉) the Scrambler 1200 to the stable...
@@BikeWorldTVshow picked it up today, had an hour or so on it so far - I couldn't be happier. The noise it makes when you're sitting at low revs and then wind the throttle on, it brings out the hooligan in me so far!
Great video, amazing scenery and terse comments. Top editing gives it nice flow. Good job. The bike? Nice. But after seeing the 1200 XE, everything else looks dull and obsolete
the looks killed it for me woth the 1200 xe bike, street scrambler kills in that department, xe is just too tall, i hate the swingarm design on it. Just doesnt have the same classic bike feel to it. But i am sure it rides much better off road and 1200 cc is something i would definitly preffer. But since i will do most riding in the streets, its not a huge benefit to me.
I'm looking to get my license and find a bike that'll do me for a while. This fits the bill perfectly, I walked into the Triumph dealership and nothing else appealed to me quite like this! Got to have a sit on one, at 6'3 and 110kg I thought it was gonna be too small. It's such a nice place to be. I am going to get one once fully licensed 🤘
simon varrie . I own the 2018 bike. It’s very comfortable, especially with a flyscreen fitted. It has an easy 150 mile range with the tank. Big drawback is the compromised luggage options due to the high exhaust. But if you can make do with soft luggage strapped to the back end, then yes it’s very capable.
I bought one in 2020 and absolutely loved it. Sadly it got nicked and written off last year and I went straight out and bought another one, 'nuff said! 😄👍👍
I own the 2022 SS. Great bike, period. Back roads or highways I don't desire more power even though I have a 100 horse power sport bike. Really a great all round bike for an experienced rider.
12427$ new, straight from a dealership. 9317$, used 2017, only 800km on it. Is it worth it? I mean, both are the same - one has better brakes, is "new" and better power. The other one is "tuned down" so to speak, and "used". Dunno if it's worth to put extra 3k $ into it just for the bling.
@Philipp Flunkert bought 2019. Went for a test ride, loved it. Position, brakes, power - was all spot on. Older model had a slightly more forward position, worse brakes and was less powerfull. I know i could have bought the old one and upgrade it, but why bother? Btw, i highly recommend buyin V&H full exhaust. Got it for 3 days now, and damn it makes you happier when you ride it. I know it's hard to comprehend, but trust me - it makes you smile even wider when u open the throttle :) Gonna invest more money into it (new air filter+power commander+ECU maping) after the lease is done. Now i just want my warranty to be there for me ;)
I get the feeling you really like this bike, John 😜 It has the same HP as my 2009 Versys, but a fair bit more torque and sounds a thousand times better. I think it'd make a great tourer for people who actually want to take it easy on the way there and see the scenery when there. At that price, the Kawasaki Z900RS is probably a strong competitor, though.
Glad you enjoyed the new bike 2019 version, I have the 2018 and it is a lovely bike. Triumph just made it better in 2019! But I can't afford to get an upgrade!
I would love one,at the mo,I have a 1982 Honda CX500 euroscrambler. (Something I built,to keep up with the 'retro' theme), but to have a new Triumph is a dream of mine...maybe one day,eh? Great video though. Thanks.
Nice review; for me the 900cc Scrambler is the way to go. In fact I've moved from the 1200 cc T120 which I loved as I wanted a lighter more urban tool. British pot holes are shocking so the slightly off road ability is really helpful for the bad British roads. Clearly you love the Scrambler, be interested in your view of the newere 1200 Scrambler.
So which would offer the rider the greatest fun factor? This or the new SPEED Twin 1200? I don't need a new bike that's only fun blasting away at unsociable speed.
I've wanted this bike for a while and it seems like Triumph has addressed the major flaws with the previous model (front brake, fork, hp), but I just know I'll be lusting after the Scrambler 1200 when it hits the dealers.
Coming at this three years on, but finally in the position to buy I'm sold, the only thing is I don't like the 2022 colours! I guess I'll just have to find a low mileage 2021 and enjoy the cool.
Good question, Luke. It’d be the Z, based on the fact that it’s just as capable of posing as the Scrambler, but has enough performance to crack a track day in standard trim. I’d be happy with either, but the green one would make me smile faster.
Is Triumph, Harley, and all the Japanese bikes near the place i live in America. No Ducati dealers around. Ducati cost to much anyways. Harley cost to much also, but they are here in America. Getting parts is part of the thinking when it comes to getting a bike. I think most Americans love Triumph, and always have loved them.
You are cool my friend! Just like the bike behind you! I love the Street Twin. I am a new rider and looking forward to buy it next Spring. A bit expensive for first bike. But for me it was either this or no motorbike at all.
If i ever get a Triumph, i will get the 1200cc. I know is different Triumph that have a 1200cc, but i just know i want the bigger engine, no matter what Triumph i choose.
Tbh, as and when I get my stabilisers off, get bored of the ex learner bike I'll probably be getting when I finish my A license, this is the bike I want, it's cool as hell, cheaper to run than the competition, and it's so customisable, want a new headlight? Got for it. New seat? Sure thing batman....me gusta👌
Have a chance to buy a dealer used 2019 Scrambler so it's spec is quite nice and dealer will fit the full V & H through de cat system, do you think that's a good option? or should I try to get them to put the FOX piggyback shocks on it instead? Nice review, wet but not wet and cold like now!!! June in England.
I have a 2022 and the rear brake is mediocre at best. I don't like the front fork feel either. Tires might be OK if it really was a real Scrambler, but on the street they leave a lot to be desired. It is a great looking bike but it could stand some more refinement.
Joshua C if you are talking about the Royal Enfield twins.. they do have dual channel ABS.. and they don't appeal to all kind of riders.. you either like em or you don't..
@@arjunthomas Yup my bad...They do have dual channel ABS...seems they couldn't copy the Street twin upto a certain point though...Same tyres (both use Pirelli Phantoms)...Same looks...same classic colors..same upswept silencers...sadly "There is no liquid-cooling, ride-by-wire or electronics apart from the dual-channel ABS which is standard." Gotta sell the bikes in India right? Had to make some differences to not get Design Infringements after all lol..and no you shouldn't like them...there is a wide list of reasons you shouldn't...if you really want to like a recent bike that launched and superbikes aren't you thing...then hands down I'd go for a Jawa...
A top notch 'no frills' (slight cynical take on the cliches) review. Where the hell was that lighthouse in Portugal - I'd like to go there myself when a big sea is rolling in.
Good review but..not sure about your riding style when leaning into turns..your head is tilting on the opposite side where it's supposed to...just my opinion but I've been always told to avoid how u tilt the head

Great review. I love this guy's no bollocks attitude in all of his reviews. Just what I needed to know as I am currently considering a nice used 2017 model against a brand new bike.
Thx for the review. How about "heat management" from either motor or exahust pipes? Will any of those sources burn your legs on long rides?
Hi thanks for the video. I have a chance of a 2012 triumph scrambler once I’ve done my Cbt. Would this make a good learner bike. I also only have a 29 inside leg so might be to big. Where I live once you do your Cbt and over 18 you can drive any bike.
Great video, I'm 6'6 and got this a suggestion, but you said you're 5'11. Do you think it would accommodate a taller rider?
Good Report on the bike. Made me feel like I want to go out and buy one. It's Just the prices of the new bikes £9,300 is a lot for a new bike.
Agree, I like the bike but it seems expensive for what you get.
try $1800 in australia
Why is it alot for a new bike bro? I dont know many quality bikes that are under 10 grand brand new

I was wondering about this versus the road-biased new 1200 scrambler - are Triumph just competing against themselves here, or are they going for different target markets?
Agree with your comment bra. The Scrambler 1200 is a very different animal, with much higher ground clearance and serious off road capabilities.

Does the bike has any heating issues at lower revs ? How good is it to use on day to day basis?

It seems strange to me to have a rain mode on these bikes, I have one of the older ones and always found the power very manageable in any condition.

Have a nice day!

What abt riding in city traffic jam in low gear is it smooth?
Cant wait to see the 1200 review. Looks like it will be brilliant
Do you know if triumph changed the gear ratios? Thanks.

How does it perform off road?
Been looking at purchasing a Triumph Street Scrambler for years. Finally pulled the trigger and found a very low mileage 2019 at Ducati of Omaha.
Great Video and Review. And congratulation for wheelie the scrambler :-) In this moment i asked myself if i ever will be able to do ...
Nice bike, my only concern is about the exhaust in hot climates
I have bought the 1200 and the 900. I really liked the 1200 but for whatever reason I loved the 900. The 1200 is sold the 900 is still in rotation.
Which bike made you smile more: the scrambler or the Z900RS Cafe?

Great review, Bike World. Thank you. Thinks: "is there room in the Trippler garage?" lol!
These Triumphs are starting to grow on me.
Is Triumph, Harley, and all the Japanese bikes near the place i live in America.
No Ducati dealers around.
Ducati cost to much anyways.
Harley cost to much also, but they are here in America.
Getting parts is part of the thinking when it comes to getting a bike.
I think most Americans love Triumph, and always have loved them.
Too much, not to much. TOO! What the fuck! Does anybody on the God damned Internet know English?
The right power band make s the 5 speed enough? Nice . Cheers!
Can you pls mention the helmet you are using?
did you ride 'em off the road?
Haven't been to Portugal since 1985, I imagine a lot has changed.
not really, still lots of golf courses.
Great straight forward honest review! If I hadn't just bought a new KTM I'd go and buy one.........
How do i get it to my region?
You are cool my friend! Just like the bike behind you! I love the Street Twin. I am a new rider and looking forward to buy it next Spring. A bit expensive for first bike. But for me it was either this or no motorbike at all.
Is it smaller?
If i ever get a Triumph, i will get the 1200cc.
I know is different Triumph that have a 1200cc, but i just know i want the bigger engine, no matter what Triumph i choose.
1200 Scrambler has been released.
Lifted_Above But not ridden by the press.
Eventually.
Tbh, as and when I get my stabilisers off, get bored of the ex learner bike I'll probably be getting when I finish my A license, this is the bike I want, it's cool as hell, cheaper to run than the competition, and it's so customisable, want a new headlight? Got for it. New seat? Sure thing batman....me gusta👌
Have a chance to buy a dealer used 2019 Scrambler so it's spec is quite nice and dealer will fit the full V & H through de cat system, do you think that's a good option? or should I try to get them to put the FOX piggyback shocks on it instead? Nice review, wet but not wet and cold like now!!! June in England.
I have a 2022 and the rear brake is mediocre at best. I don't like the front fork feel either. Tires might be OK if it really was a real Scrambler, but on the street they leave a lot to be desired. It is a great looking bike but it could stand some more refinement.
Anyone knows if they will upgrade also the street cup soon?
I would buy one immediately if they do.
I want this for my next bike. Great review
Great review
Nicely done! No mention of the new 1200cc Street Scrambler?
We're on the launch in a couple of weeks, here's our 1200 preview for now th-cam.com/video/cFMf-KjPqK0/w-d-xo.html
Thats great review. I'm planning to take one for myself next month.
That statement from about 6:40 is cool!
Love the bike! I'm a great fan of te street crambler It will be my next ride. But please... Its CASCAIS, CAS... CAIS with two C's :)
Joao Nunes thanks, Joao. It’s the second time I’ve been, I’ll make sure to get that if I go again.
Great review and video. No BS detection and I think very clear. Thanks much
Is this tubeless?
Best bike reviewer.
I cant understand why triumph dont sell more bikes as they are just superb. Ive got 2 already and this will be my 3rd........
Is this bike ready for long trips, 600 miles a day ?
It's awesome for long trips as long as you don't mind the wind in your face.
samson philip , is there an option of adding a wind screen?
Hello.. would you guys also be reviewing the Royal Enfield 650 twins? Cheers..
Yesssss! And the Jawa bikes. But I don't think they would go to smaller cc bikes.
Those aren't Superbikes lol...plus its pretty much a copy of the Street twin...nothing revolutionary...couldn't even give dual channel ABS XD
Joshua C if you are talking about the Royal Enfield twins.. they do have dual channel ABS.. and they don't appeal to all kind of riders.. you either like em or you don't..
And them being a copy of Triumph... I disagree.. yes they do look similar.. but they are based on the older Interceptor and the GT..
@@arjunthomas Yup my bad...They do have dual channel ABS...seems they couldn't copy the Street twin upto a certain point though...Same tyres (both use Pirelli Phantoms)...Same looks...same classic colors..same upswept silencers...sadly "There is no liquid-cooling, ride-by-wire or electronics apart from the dual-channel ABS which is standard." Gotta sell the bikes in India right? Had to make some differences to not get Design Infringements after all lol..and no you shouldn't like them...there is a wide list of reasons you shouldn't...if you really want to like a recent bike that launched and superbikes aren't you thing...then hands down I'd go for a Jawa...
A top notch 'no frills' (slight cynical take on the cliches) review.
Where the hell was that lighthouse in Portugal - I'd like to go there myself when a big sea is rolling in.
Brilliant review, love that Bike,beautiful quality 👌
Good review but..not sure about your riding style when leaning into turns..your head is tilting on the opposite side where it's supposed to...just my opinion but I've been always told to avoid how u tilt the head
John's a professional rider, he knows what he's doing...
What a great review. Thank you.
Cheers Paul
Good review. You need to find more things in this life to make you smile!
Gerhard Symons I’m smiling on the inside, Gerhard.
All new bikes have to have abs? First time to hear that. Is that E U?
Yes, think it was compulsory since 2016. Only 125cc and below are exempt.
14stone?
