Now this is a bike I can appreciate, none of that electric mumbo jumbo, pie in the sky skulduggery 😂 A living breathing excellently engineered machine with a heart beat which voices the excitement in its moving parts. Every one of my four bikes gives me the feeling you describe, I cannot have a favourite as each is unique in its own way. Each one holding a crown at the head of its genre.
lol 😂 very well said I do have a second bike that I absolutely love for a host of different reasons and that’s my monkey 🐵 now that bike always makes me feel 30 years younger 😎☝️glad I didn’t loose you because of a electric bike so thx for sticking around watching and commenting most appreciated 🙏
Hello from Switzerland, I have owned an XE Scrambler for 1.5 years.
And what can I say, the best purchase I've ever made.
I had a 955i Tiger for 15 years and loved this motorcycle, but after over 100,000 km the ravages of time unfortunately separated us. I've been looking for a successor for a long time. I installed slightly higher footrests for more lean angle and put on road-oriented tires because I rarely go off-road. What I will treat myself to, however, is off-road training with an XE in Spain :-) I am convinced that the motorcycle will also master this challenge.
I'm already looking forward to the next trip in spring like a little child. Greetings to all motorcyclists worldwide from Switzerland😁
Thank you so much for watching and commenting it’s most appreciated, triumph off road adventure centre in Spain is amazing and you will be able to off road there scramblers the best one however is in wales 🏴 in England and if you ever come to England 🏴 you should come to the triumph factory to visit the visitors centre and have a factory tour enjoy your bike have amazing adventures and stay safe 🙏
Bought a MY23 XE a couple of months ago and am absolutely loving it, my pride and joy. Compliments my DR650 nicely 👍
I definitely feel your love ❤️ enjoy your time with her here to plenty of smiles per hour this year ☝️thank you for watching and commenting most appreciated 🙏
It was great to meet you at the Triumph Visitor centre. I was having a coffee courtesy of John, who I'm pleased to see in your comments section.
Love the look of your new Scrambler. I'm sure when I looked at the new Scrambler on the Motorcycle Live stand, that it now had an ignition key. I absolutely detest keyless systems. You can't currently insure a keyless Range Rover in London as so many are being nicked!
I'm personally not that keen on the dash on the Scrambler, the info is all a bit small to read for my ageing sight.
Brilliant engine and gorgeous to look at.
Ironically I hate those clocks on the rocket 🚀 but like them on the scram , yes you are right they have now scraped the keyless not ignition for a key mainly to cut costs , it was definitely good to bump into you we will definitely have to do a collaboration one day ☝️John is a lovely bloke and seems to be working his way through every video 🙏as ever thank you for your support it’s RUclipsrs like yourself and your good lady that always inspire me to try harder 🙏
Hoping to buy a used XE this weekend. If all goes right, I'll finally have me dream bike.
Well fingers crossed 🤞 for you nothing better than own your dream bike definitely let me know when you have her 🙏and a big thank you for watching and commenting 👍
That’s always exciting to buy a bike that’s new to you.
I bought an XC this past June, so I feel your excitement.
These screamers are awesome.
I like mine stock because triumph did all the hard work already. I can’t thank them enough.
They look so good it’s enough just to stand there admiring it.
Riding it feels just as good that you never want to stop.
If the gas tank was any bigger you could hahaha.
Good luck with your purchase.
Ride it safely so you can ride it for a many many years.
Thanks for another interesting episode. I really enjoyed it.
I’m going to have to spend the weekend with the owner’s manual, attempting to get all the electronics set up.
I had to leave the bike at the dealership for some accessories installation. When I got it back the clock was way off the actual time.
Really looking forward to learning how to operate all the electronics that the bike comes with. It’s way more sophisticated than any of my previous bikes.
Have you tried any of the different riding modes?
I’m thinking that Sport Mode could be my favorite setting.
Happy Trails!
You are going to love it I tend to spend 98% of the time in sport mode it will soften it off to road in heavy rain and I’ve used rain mode in icy conditions the modes don’t limit the power it just adjusts how it’s delivered I’ve also found road mode better for city conditions or slow moving traffic, I can’t make my mind up between the two different displays as I like both for different reasons but as ever that’s personal preference, for me I just love everything about the scram it not only fits me it’s suits my everyday day needs your definitely going to love yours I look forward to hearing how you get get on with her 🙏 as ever thank you for watching and commenting 😎👍
Yep, enjoyed that Lee, great video (one of your best so far IMO). Glad you're loving The Scrambler, I'm looking forward to seeing how the new Enduro bikes perform and especially getting to see/ fondle one in the flesh. 👍 Stay safe, hope Buddy recovers soon.
Yep the proof will definitely be in the pudding knowing triumph they will be amazing 🤩 🙏
Mr Lee, I think that's a most wonderful explanation, keep up the good work 👍
Thank you for watching and commenting most appreciated 🙏
I echo your thoughts on the Scram. I purchased one two years ago and owned it for about 6 months. I traded it for a KTM 1290 SA. Well, 18 months later and I’m back on a 1200 xe. Why on earth did I ever sell the first one? I have really no idea! Stupid is as stupid does as a wiser man than me once observed!
Sometimes I think we have to test ourselves in still glad I bought the tiger 900 if only to no I made a mistake making it more obvious to myself I was so right to buy the scram 🙏❤️a big thank you for watching and commenting and keep enjoying your scrambler 😎🤘❤️
What a great educational vid. I loved it. I love the Triumph brand. I had the Trident 660, what a stunning bike that was. Took it in for its 12 month service and that’s where I set my eyes on the scram 900 Chrome edition. I bought it there and then.. I had a beautiful Tom Hurley custom seat put on it and I have to say… it’s absolutely stunning. Unfortunately, I wasn’t tall enough for the 1200… lol 😊😊
Your scram sounds amazing 🤩 my wife has the 900 she was triumphs only female test rider for a decade and did the majority of development on the 900 hence she has one ☝️ I find it a better riding experience than the 1200 in many ways but for me ergonomically the 1200 fits me better 👌thx for for taking the time to watch and comment most appreciated 🙏
@@bikerbuddy3166 well, I bow down to your good lady. I have to say there isn’t anything I don’t like about the 900. 😀😀
I've had my scram for 4 years And 18500 miles so far. Still love it. This year 2up I've been to the IOM and camping for 9 days in the Alps 👌.
I don't know where you live, but you must be very local to me, I live between Lutterworth and Hinckley.
Great vid 👍🏻
Sounds like you have had some amazing 🤩 adventures on your scram and many more to come 👌thank you for watching and commenting it’s most appreciated 🙏I live in Nuneaton 😎🤘so not far you
2up riding how did you get on ?
@@Plaubel17 it rides well. I do a lot of 2up with my GF. I have the tec heavy springs fitted. 👍🏻
I get 2 2024 in 2 weeks , looking forward 2up riding , hope not too hot for the pillion with the OEM exhaust
Like you, I am a Triumph fan boi. However, my tastes go back to a previous factory, starting with a 1970 T100P as my first big bike, followed by a 1968 T120. Much later I built a 1956 Thunderbird 'flat tracker' custom named 'Hot Pursuit' (featured in AWOL magazine) and all these years later I am finally in the process of building the Thunderbirds brother, a 1975 T140 which came to me as a pile of bits and boxes. Hopefully it will see the road next year under the name of ...'Slow Progress'.... my dream bike.
Well I definitely look forward to seeing that completed 👍 what a amazing bike to own love and cherish ☝️as ever thank you for wand commenting its most appreciated 🙏
Bought my Scram XE last month after passing my test. Not been out a great deal but love looking at it in the garage for now. Enjoying your videos
Wow 🤩 now that is a bloody good first choice for your first bike 😎🤘the good weather will soon be back 🤞a big thank you 🙏 for watching and commenting most appreciated 🙏
I bought my 23' XC last week before I even have my bike endorsement. Dream bike and it was under MSRP otd.
@bobjohnson1633 definitely a good choice enjoy her stay safe 😎🙏👌
Hi I’ve not got the scrambler yet but I’ve just bought a rocket 3 gt 2023 and it is in a league of its own as we all know beautifully made looks way ahead of anything which it is and next year I’m going to get a scrambler 1200xe hopefully a new one love them enjoyed your scrambler video and I’ve subscribed and hope to watch many more ride safe take care have a good Christmas 👋
Firstly thank you 🙏 for watching and commenting and even more so for your sub 🙏 it’s definitely most appreciated,
The rocket is a amazing bike and definitely one I’d love in my garage , I am officially the first man on the planet to get 3 points and £60 fine on the rocket 🚀 still makes me smile now , you will definitely love the scram 👍
That one off velocity stacked scrambler was something, it looked like it had mini bike in it's DNA with those super fat tires.
The excitement around these bikes at the time was amazing and you can see the love passion and skill that went into them , a big thank you 🙏 for watching and commenting most appreciated 😎
Love the vid matey. Purchased a 1200 in August. My Trident 660 was in for recall work and a scrambler was offered as a courtesy bike. Thought it'd be a 900. They gave me the keyless key and I instantly worried about its size and weight but I headed out from the dealer forecourt and instantly fell in love with it. Three weeks later I bought one. Absolutely love it. Bags of torque and bags of character.
A big thank you for watching and commenting most appreciated 🙏 and ye it’s definitely a bike that. Grabs your heart and soul 😎🤘I just want summer to come back quick so I can get out more a week of rain 🌧️ destroyers the soul
@bikerbuddy3166 exactly that. Usually love winter but it can do one this season 😆
@scottgiblett6691 😂☝️I so need to move to Spain 🇪🇸
@@bikerbuddy3166 😆at least for the winter
Lee that was interesting and enjoyable to watch . Last Wednesday when we spoke at the cafe i didnt realise you were on the scrambler . it sounds lovely and has good performance . the days i rode bikes with grunt are a memory now so thanks for that . best to you your wife and buddy , from myself ,Linda and Chris .
It was good to meet you again and I’m sure it won’t be the last time 🕰️ we meet 🙏thank you for watching and commenting most appreciated 🙏❤️
@@bikerbuddy3166 thanks .
I am very excited about the new MX bikes, mainly to see the road legal enduro versions when they show their face. I'd still have to spend a grand making them fit me, but I imagine the 450 will come out about the time I'll be wanting to replace my Beta.
I do wish the keyless ignition thing would die a death and all manufacturers would ditch it entirely.... a failed solution to a problem that never existed.
Very nearly on the 1k there mate! 🙂
If I could have any bike right now, it'd be the Yamaha XSR900 GP, but I don't think I can make it happen... I do very much love my Suzuki GSX-8S though 🙂
Hope Buddy feels better soon mate.
Yes I do the the road version will do well when they arrive I think there biggest seller next year will be there new 400 ☝️I do like your sexy smurfet 😎🤘as ever thx for watching and commenting 🙏
So satisfying to see someone like you, who knows infinitely more about motorcycles than I do end up loving the Triumph Scramler XE as much as I do. I think the argument can be made that it is the best modern classic Triumph ever made. Can you answer a question - the tank shape and the paint on the 2019 - 2023 Scrambler XE is so beautiful (the seamless look vs. pinch weld) - I wonder what you think about the tanks on other Bonnevilles? Is it cost avoidance that makes them not pursue this tank construction and finish on other bonnies?
Firstly a big thank you for watching and commenting but most of all a massive thank you for becoming my 1000 subscriber 😎🤘with the 1200 they really did go all out to give it the quality it deserved and yes I would put it down to cost as with most things , and this shows in quite a few other models especially in the 900s but even on bikes like the bobber I always wanted to see a double front disc as it felt so under braked and it was purely to cost cut and never got rectified until they released the bobber black with a higher price , but on the flip side of that even when triumph cut costs they still aim to give you the best quality for your money 💰
No doubt a great bike for the money. I knew it was special. . . and I am proud to have made the choice I made. Lot's of great motorcycles these days. What is your second favorite modern classic?@@bikerbuddy3166
I’d love to visit that factory some day.
Where is it exactly?
A great video would be if they gave you permission to record the start to finish process, or at least some of it.
Love your enthusiasm about these triumph motorcycles.
I bought a new 2022 XC after twenty years of not having a motorcycle and I’m very happy I chose this bike.
The look is first, the feel, the sound, the comfort….all fantastic.
I think you’re the perfect person to ask about an issue I’m having with this bike and it started inside the showroom.
I noticed a bit of oil just under the front sprocket.
The motorcycle now has 1500 miles and it’s still leaking.
The dealer claims it’s hot chain wax….its not.
I love this bike, I’m very excited to have this bike, I love it so much I would like to buy one more to have two, is how much I love this bike, BUT this tiny oil leak is putting turning my smile up side down.
I found a video here on YT and it explains how excessive pressure in the motor can cause an oil leak.
I think this is what’s happening but not sure.
I selected this bike new from a showroom so it was still new with two miles on it.
Can’t blame the previous owner because there isn’t one.
This is a factory defect and the dealer refuses to acknowledge the problem.
One more problem is the clutch hops as I let it out from a stop.
This started immediately following the 699 mile first service.
The dealer refused to acknowledge this problem as well.
Any help from you would mean so much to me.
I would try to fix this myself but I don’t want to void the warranty.
Cheers !
Firstly thank you for watching and commenting most appreciated 🙏I definitely haven’t seen this problem in pre production, and it’s definitely a problem you shouldn’t have to accept, I’m not sure we’re in the world you are but I would definitely swap your dealer , there customer care sounds shocking, if you go on the triumph website you used to be able to find John bloors email and I’ve known customers with the same passion for the triumph brand get results , there’s been occasions over the years that I’ve been sent out to customers that have had problems and emailed him direct and the problems that unscrupulous dealers wouldn’t resolve, have been sorted at the factory ,as for the clutch it could be all it needs is a slight adjustment try at the lever first but yet again this is something the dealer should have looked into , we have some amazing dealers in uk but we also have some shit ones ☝️and my advice is don’t take it lying down and go higher than the dealer that is fobbing you off I really hope you get this sorted 🙏
Oooh sorry and the triumph factory and visitors center is in Hinckley (Leicestershire)
Hi Lee! The luggage rack on your bike. I see it works over the exhaust pipes. What company is it?
Thanks for a great video 😊
I have no clue there’s no maker mark on it and it was already on the bike when I bought her ,
Your wrong about the visitor center being the best thing triumph have ever done.
Best thing triumph ever did was bring you and I together.
I still miss my Explorer.
This is true so many good memories made on them explorers for sure 👌 😎👌🙏❤️ and a friendship for life 🙏
it is a sexy bike the scrambler but my dream bike has got to be the rocket 3 they are soooo comfy to sit on i dont know if i could trust myself without being a naughty boy with the little devil horns being a bike tester is definitely a dream job and i am currently looking but not having much luck on finding anything down those lines yet
Well the rocket 🚀 is definitely the bike to give you horns I am officially the first man on the planet to get 3 points and a£60 fine but what a machine it is also a very good bike for two up ☝️😎🙏I look forward to seeing what you get as ever thank you for your support most appreciated 🙏
@@bikerbuddy3166 aye but who did they send that speeding fine to first? You a naughty man Mr V, consider yourself reprimanded...
lol 😂 still say it was yours
@@bikerbuddy3166 they've never caught me....YET 😂
@xpompiermick 😂😂😂☝️don’t jinx yourself
