2017 Triumph Scrambler 900 for Sale

Brakes, Wheels and Tires

• Only wire spoke wheels would do for a classic like the Scrambler so that’s what we’ve fitted, now with eye-grabbing black hubs and rims. There’s a 19 inch diameter rim at the front to add to the authenticity and style. On those are block-treaded tires, another nod towards the off-road look but with excellent on-road performance in all conditions. We matched Scrambler’s performance with a single front disc, providing progressive, confident stopping power without overwhelming you.

Design

• Just as desert racers endure riders in the 1960s took Triumph twins and personaliuzed them for off-road fun and competition, we started out with the standard Bonneville and modified it to achieve the classic Scrambler look. As well as studying closely the original Triumph TR6C Trophy Special from the late 1960s, the bike which inspired the Scrambler's high level exhausts.

Engine

• PERFORMANCE: For the Scrambler we returned the 865cc eight-valve engine to give you more torque at very low revs. It peaks at a strong 68Nm at 4750rpm but keeps producing useful thrust much lower than that, with 90 percent of its torque on tap from as low as 2500rpm.
• CONFIGURATION: Powered by special version of our twin-cylinder Bonneville engine, the Scrambler is air-cooled and styled like the 1960s originals yet quietly bristling with 21st century technology to ensure it’s efficient and easy to use.
• FUEL INJECTION: It even looks as if it comes with old-style carburetors, but we’ve disguised the thoroughly modern fuel injection system, with along with the double overhead cams and contemporary internals makes this a highly fuel efficient, as well as engaging engine.

Frame

• With the exhaust lifted high out of the way it's possible to see the traditional tubular steel, twin cradle frame in al its glory. Classically styled but strong enough to meet modern handling expectations. The engine is bolted in to lend its own stiffness to the frame which creates a ride that is light, predictable and completely engaging.

Riding Position

• The riding position has its roots in off-roading too. We gave the Scrambler high and wide black finish handlebars and footrests raised for better ground clearance. It sits you tall and upright so you are in command either riding around town or cruising along in the country and enjoying the view. It also gives you fine control of the bike when you’re hustling it through corners and slipping through traffic because it’s so responsive, obedient and easy to control. The traditional long, flat seat of the Scrambler not only looks the part, it means riders of all sizes can find the ideal position to sit just by sitting into the most comfortable place. This works for the passenger too. There’s plenty of room behind the rider without being forced into a single position – snuggle up or sit back, either is fine.

Suspension

• The pair of chromed Shocks we put at the back look classic on the outside but are modern on the inside. Giving you balanced and effective damping for comfort and controlled handling. And the front forks wear traditional rubber bellows to protect against dirt, while the stubby front mudguard is just like those you would have fitted in the 1960s.
