Triumph Motorcycles launch the Street Scrambler At Rs 8.1 lakh (ex-India)

With the Street Scrambler launch, Triumph India has a complete modern classic range

 

Triumph has been selling scrambler kits for the Bonneville for some time now, but it did not have a dedicated Scrambler model in India. Until now. With the Street Scrambler, Triumph now has the entire modern classic range in India, which consists of a classic (Boneville T100, T120), cafe racer (Thruxton R), bobber (Bonneville Bobber) and a street naked (Street Twin). 

The Street Scrambler is based on the Street Twin and gets revisions to make it capable off-road. It gets off-road bits like rubber fuel tank grip pads, a split seat with a detachable pillion seat pad, high-rise handlebars, side-mounted high-set exhaust pipes, off-road footpegs and underbody bash plate. The ergonomics allow you to stand comfortably, a requisite for riding off-road. The seat height has increased to 790mm, up 40mm on the Street Twin. The 206kg kerb weight is up by 8 kilos. Fuel tank capacity is 12 litres.

It employs the same suspension components as the Street Twin but gets an increased rake and trail of 24.3 degrees and 98.7mm respectively for better stability. The front suspension is KYB 41 mm forks with 120mm of travel and KYB twin shock absorbers with adjustable preload and 120mm of rear wheel travel. The front wheel is 19-inches while the rear is 17-inches, both shod with Metzeler Tourance dual purpose off-road tyres.

For braking, there is a single 310 mm disc clamped to a Nissin 2-piston floating calliper upfront and a 255 mm disc with Nissin 2-piston floating calliper at the rear. It gets switchable traction control.

 The engine is a 900cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin borrowed from the Street twin and makes the same 55PS and 80Nm of torque. The bike gets ride-by-wire along with switchable traction control.

The Street Scrambler is priced at Rs 8.1 lakh, Rs 1.17 lakh more than the Street Twin’s sticker price of Rs 7.17 lakh (all prices ex Delhi). The Street Scrambler will go up against the Ducati Scrambler whose price ranges from Rs 6.97 lakh to Rs 9.32 lakh depending on the model.
