Street Scrambler Off Road! Why Do I Do This To Myself? | Motovlog S2E19

[@BugMotoChannel]

I've done a bunch of offroading on my Scrambler 900 over the past few weeks. The one thing I've learned is, standing up makes things 8 times easier. The bike just does what it needs to do under you and you don't even really notice it.

Will deffo give that a try next time I’m out! Think part of it is confidence to stand and just allow the bike to move about

[@DaveGeezer]

Practice makes perfect and you’re smart for knowing your limits. Carry on.

Thank you for sharing the experience! Just one question, how did you fit quad lock right in the middle of handlebars?

[@Nomad_Scrambler]

I got the Thornton hundred handlebar clamp mount. Essentially replaces the stock triumph one with a built in quad lock mount and it makes my ocd so happy!

I am a professional rider. The SS900 is only shits and giggles off road. Have taken on trails barely a bars width wide. Have hit whoop-de-doos with it at speed- only after some suspension changes. It is god awful heavy, and if you tip it over in deep sand, it’s like lifting a cartoon. Crossed streams and been in ugly mud. This bike is NOT an off-road bike. It’s exactly what it says it is- a STREET scrambler. About the best it can do, reasonably, is gravel/dirt roads ridden like a flat tracker. Full send at 70-80 is a hoot. I pity anyone with minimal skills off road trying to learn them on this bike.

If it’s all you got, you gotta do what you gotta do

While all that is true, back in the day, people took their road machines, stuck some knobbly tires on them and took them down the tracks and trails of the world. This is Retro-Off-Roading 😉

[@Nomad_Scrambler]

And it’s a pretty good way to do it!
