Absolutely right. Realistic without those pointless panels. Looks cleaner too. The panels were a case of being overdressed, thats all...

You would think its to "guard" the tank but nope. Someone hit my Scram while parked on its centre stand. Fell on its right side, bent the handle bar aaaand, pushed this panel into the tank and dented it. The deepest dent was caused by that Allen key bolt at the back of the panel. Now I'm thinking of removing them too, thanks for the video.

I agree totally ! Nice to see that they can be removed if one wanted to, but, yeah, does take the mystery out of it doesn't it ? I tell people they are my newspaper holders.

I can't help feeling that RE missed a trick with these panels. With a little redesign on the fastener, and maybe a stronger material, they could have used one as a kickstand plate for soft ground. Or made them a little thicker so they could be used as storage for a first aid kit or similar

It looks much better, I imagine that the tank panels are there to cover something from the Himalayan tank bar's, it's the same frame. I have a Himalayan, if I'd gone for the Scram I'd definitely be taking those off. Ride safe

Correct… the way I see it, it’s like those plastic covers you get in cars where a button should be….the higher spec car has the switch but lower models just have a plastic cover in place. It’s the same for this. Can’t remember which YT channel said it but someone said it was to cover the area where the tank bars would go in the Himalayan. I’ve seen custom jobs where folks remove this and move/hide the horn etc etc. I guess for a newbie rider keeping them on will help protect the tank when they drop the bike.

So, just playing devil's advocate, we could stick the himalayan front rack onto the scram?

Brilliant. I have wondered if you can remove them and what it would look like.

@motostralia5563 Жыл бұрын

Thanks, Scott. All the best with the removal should you decide to do it. Of course they can always go back on at any time if necessary. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Len

I've seen some refer to them as chicken fillets, i've seen at least one correct comment, these are just something to hide the bar that the Himmy tank bars are mounted to. I really like the look of them on my Skyline blue Scram.

I always thought it was to hide the holes for the Himalayan tank bars. 🤷‍♂️

That's exactly what they're for.

I had mine at the dealer for a warranty claim on the sump guard cracking. I've taken mine off too, and the tech at the dealer said they're to protect the gas tank in a fall. I'm not so sure about that, but I left the round bar on and 3d printed some skulls to fit on there.

If it's not too much work, can u share the 3D asset for that? I'm planning on making something myself but never worked on anything 3D.

@andrewlong5444 Жыл бұрын

Would that horizontal bar on which those cosmetic attachments were fixed be utilized in part for attachment of a crash bar set L/R ?

@junderwoituk 10 ай бұрын

Nice one, seems really easy to take off and looks good without it, the only thing I see is you can see the white fuel pod thing hanging under the tank...

I have a 2022 Himalayan but I'm Scram-curious...good to see the allen screws on the oil cooler basically come rusted from the factory! I'm putting a lot of effort into fighting the Scottish winter with my bike and those guys just turned orange instantly...

@motostralia5563 Жыл бұрын

😂 Hi, Geshmaal. Yep, Royal Enfield certainly have perfected the art of rusting Allen screws. When you own an RE this is one of the things that is not so surprising. I’ve owned six of the new generation models and they all have has something going on like that. My current is a Himalayan and I really like it. Maybe take a Scram for a ride and see what you think…? When the weather warms up? BTW, I love going to Scotland, my family were originally from there. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Len

@Geshmaal Жыл бұрын

@@motostralia5563 oh no I'm still riding through the winter, just locally and to and from work when it's not below zero. I got the Himalayan because it seems ideal for getting lost on up in the Highlands! And I ended up going for this instead of the Himalayan because of the factory fitted centre stand, crash bars and windscreen. I can see myself going for the next generation Scram though if they give it a centre stand, I don't really do any proper off-road riding (it's not really legal here) but lots of terrible road surfaces.

You must have reduced a little bit of weight after this modification..... Looking nice....

@motostralia5563 4 ай бұрын

Hi, Prasad. The panels and the bar that held them really didn’t weigh enough to make a difference that could be felt when riding. However, the bike did feel less bulky, but that was probably just an aesthetic thing. Cheers, Len

Thank you very much for your reply... I have just booked Scram 411. So following some interesting videos regarding the bike.... How is your experience with the bike???

@motostralia5563 4 ай бұрын

It’s a great bike with no issues apart from the engine cutting out a couple of times when stopped at lights. It seems that this is/was a problem with some bikes, but dealers are now aware of it. All the best with your adventures on your 411, enjoy 👍

All they are is a cover for the Himalayan tank guard bracket connection point, they could have just removed it or put a rubber plug in it!

Do you think they may be wind deflectors for your legs? Just a thought, being in the UK with the cold weather your legs get very cold. Aesthetically the bike looks good with or without them it's down to preference. Thanks for the filming.

Hi, Robert. I’ve had a few thought as to what the pads could be called and your suggestion is as good as any I’ve come up with. Yes, it does really come down to preferences. Thanks for watching. Cheers, Len
