Another great video. I can understand why you say you could set up a chair and just sit and look at the bike. It's like a work of art...a blend of past and present. It's absolutely gorgeous, really.
Mods are very nice. The windscreen is very nice as you went for functional over just "cute". The lights make a huge functional plus...I would leave those in place and find two powerful small LED true projectors lights...that way you will be fully enlighted... There is no negative for being seen day/night. You may be able to attach them to your engine guards, or swap them around. Bright up high...flood on lower guards.
Thanks for a great, informative episode. I really like what you’ve done with your bike. I have the 2024 Scrambler XE model, and probably every mod you’ve done to your XC will work on mine. I have a lot of the Triumph accessories and parts on back-order: the small tinted windshield, the fog lights, the fender extender, the headlight protector, the side bag, etc. I’m definitely getting the windshield you featured, and the car play device. I’m considering the bar end mirrors you featured, even though I have the DoubleTake mirrors on my other two bikes. I’ll surely use your links, and thanks for the discounts! Happy Trails!
SMDSR- scrolling through YT, I saw the thumbnail and my eyes assumed it was a Royal Enfield and I was like "RE does not make a 1200! Then I realized it was your channel and YOUR bike OH!
Good point, as I’ve been a bit apprehensive about the smaller tank on the Scrambler. My old KLR650 has a six gallon tank, and plenty of range. I’m considering one liter aluminum fuel bottles that you can get from most sporting goods stores. We found some great 1L fuel bottles at R.E.I. They will fit in the top case very well.
@@0HARE most scramblers have small tanks. I’m doing a Royal Enfield 650 scrambler build (3gal tank). I managed to find space for two 1 gal RotoPax tanks. I’ll be using some budget soft luggage but haven’t figured it out yet.
I started following you when you purchased the Transalp. I didn’t pull the trigger on that one because I don’t like the paint finish. I have been doing research on the Triumph Scrambler because a buddy of mine will sell me his 2020 cx with 2k miles for $7k. I almost feel like I can’t pass it up. The biggest negative is wind buffeting and you seem to have solved that issue. So, is it a keeper now? Thanks
You said you got the scrambler to “tame you down off-road”. Does that mean you think the scrambler is less capable off-road than your Tiger Rally Pro was?
@@adventureundone Since you have had both the Tiger Rally Pro and Scrambler 1200, do you think they are both equally capable off-road? Or is one more capable off-road than the other? And if one is better off road, why?
I see the bit of exposed frame in front of the tank and just think "why triumph, why not just make the tank bigger". Who buys a bike and goes "Ahh, I really love this bike but the tank is just too big"

I like the windshield and the top box a lot mirrors are great looking too 👍
Love that side bag. It’s freaking sweet!

Question for ya, on the fog lights, did you need the one with the wiring harness from Amazon, or is everything needed inside the headlamp?
Do you have a link or additional info to your bar bag? Looks sober and hides well. Really functional.
Very nice. Love the windshield and luggage. Have you thought of a way to pack extra fuel?

I absolutely love this bike, but I got a 24’ Africa Twin
Jesus, if you don't buy your friend's XC, please send me a DM with his information. Hopefully he's in the northeast US. :D
@@adventureundoneso you have both now ?
You said you got the scrambler to “tame you down off-road”. Does that mean you think the scrambler is less capable off-road than your Tiger Rally Pro was?
oh no way, the scrambler can take it all on.
