I had the 1200XE and was very disappointed with the suspension comfort (and bikes comfort in general for long rides). I had a 2015 Scrambler 865 and absolutely loved it and could ride 800km in a day on it (put 70000km on it in 3 riding seasons). I tried a friends Street Scrambler and loved it too, I would easily pick it over the 1200, great bike at a great price. It's also easy to enjoy without having to go 2-3 times the speed limits. With an exhaust it sounds amazing.

I have one and it does actually have an 'off road' mode with switchable ABS and traction control. Might have been useful for your little off-road photoshoot! I agree it's basically a stylised roadbike and gentle green-laner though, and that's fine - it's gorgeous! The pegs are a bit low too, they scrape far too easily. For me, the single clock is perfect - I like the simplicity. I'm 5 foot 10 and it's pretty much tailor-made for me ergonomics-wise. I stepped down from a Thruxton R to the Street Scrambler and I find the Scrambler to be much more fun. The spec sheet for this bike doesn't even hint at how good it is.

Thanks for posting. I have used the Klim transition visors. These particular visors gave everything a bit of a green tint, which your eyes compensate for the tint. In general, the visor works well and all helmets should come with them standard, imho. You could always buy a modular helmet with drop down tinted visors. :) There are a couple of issues you should know. First, if you wear helmets with a beak (which I don't think you do), be aware where the beak casts a shadow on the visor, that portion of the visor will be lighter (not as dark). Second, as you already know, they are pricey. Third, if you try to wear polarizing sun glasses (which I tried a couple of times) under the visor, you will have one heck of a psychodelic trip. :)

Great video! Thanks for a very well laid out review. I ride a 2020 Bonneville T120 Black, which I absolutely love, but I had considered the Street Scrambler and Street Twin before settling on the nicely appointed 1200. The Scrambler is definitely a street Bonnie dressed up to look like a retro off-road bike. The folks at Triumph don’t try to claim otherwise about the 900. There is an off-road version of the 1200, of course. About the transitions visor: it is absolutely a MUST HAVE! I have a 45 minute commute driving east into the sun in the morning and west into the sun in the early evening. Before switching to a Bell Star MIPS helmet, which comes with the transitions visor in addition to a clear one, I would have to pull over and change goggles if the sun set during my ride.
@Steve-motorcycles3 жыл бұрын
You must really want a retro, scrambler style bike to consider either the 900 or 1200 triumph scramblers. They are too heavy to do any serious off roading and to be honest, very expensive. As nice looking as they are, there are better suited, just as nice looking and more fun bikes on the market to get muddy. Try the Fantic Caballero as one example of a light, more suited off road scrambler which is fun to ride both on the road and off, it won’t bust your wallet either

The issue for me with this bike is the tubed tyres and high exhaust, - but only if the latter throws heat off it. I like the idea of the engine with its low-down torque. Maximum torque at 3,200 rpm would suit me perfectly. The Street Twin is too low, so isn't an alternative for me. I would rather like a 1200 Scrambler if it wasn't so expensive. I am 6'1'' and 14 stones. Knowledgeable review.

I'm 6'1 and ~250lb (18 stone?) and I definitely think I wouldnt want to be any bigger on mine, but it is definitely comfortable for me. It feels like home. The exhaust heat has never bothered me except one especially hot summer day (probably 95F) stuck in bumper to bumper traffic on extremely congested surface streets in metro/urban Atlanta. Just got stuck at light after light for it seemed like 10 minutes at a time. But I dont think the heat is an issue, and the placement is fine. My knees go nicely right up against the tank pads. Mine is a '17 model, I've put 25k miles on it, but they're slightly lower on power so perhaps the newer ones with the power bump make a little more heat.

I had also tried the speedmaster before buying the tiger, which was enjoyable, albeit forward controls were a stretch (mid would be better for me), as well as that any speed above NSL turns you into a kite.

I had one, and I'm afraid I wasn't happy with it. I didn't really like the engine, the quality was a bit suspect, wheel spokes and brake disc centers going rusty, even though I hadn't been out in the rain. Also the brakes were a bit weak. Best bit was getting 70 miles to the gallon.

This or the BMW R9T Urban GS? I know where my money would be.

The only problem i see with this bike is the exhaust and its position on the frame. It may be ok for UK climate, but you will fry your leg here in the mediterranean summer. I would get the Street Twin in place of this.

Yes the video glitched, something was wrong with my editing software and destroyed the orginal files. Now upgraded my Sony Vegas to version 18 so hoping things will be sorted now 👍

Nice review as ever Chops but really don't like the looks of it all. Seems like a decent machine though.

Get the pinlok instead of a visor. Much cheaper and not written off by a stone.
