Is the Street Scrambler Finally Ready to Go Scramblin'?
It’s been proven time and time again that Triumph is a master of the art of making supremely fun motorcycles. In fact, it was way back in the ’60s that the Bonneville spearheaded the whole scrambler culture. Sure, Ducati had a Scrambler around, too, but that range consisted of single-cylinder motorcycles that weren’t nearly as mental as the Triumphs were. Why else would legends like Steve McQueen and Evel Knievel find the Bonnies worthy enough for their airborne antics? Fast forward to 2019 and Triumph’s just rolled out its updated version of the Street Scrambler. Does this Scrambler really hark true to its lineage and heritage? In simpler words, is it ready to get down and dirty?
Stripped down, bare boned and unapologetically brash is what the Street Scrambler sets out to be. It’s been around since 2017, but it now gets the same updates that the new Street Twin does plus a little more on top. So what does this update entail? Well, firstly, Triumph’s addressed the crucial flaws of the older bike. The brakes, suspension and engine have gotten better just like on the 2019 Street Twin. But that’s not all. It’s how they’ve gotten better that’s made a world of difference; but we’ll get to that later.
