I have a 2019. It is awesome. I use it for everything... commute, groceries, tour, offroad... great bike.
There’s no need for specs, that’s why I like this review. I can look them up myself.
I've fantasized about owning a Scrambler ever since they came out. To me, they make much more sense than what's now called an adventure bike (very large GSs/KTMs/Ducatis ... but especially the GS, it's ginormous!). It's tall, it's narrow, it's not packaged in plastic ... Even though it isn't a match for my type of riding (sport-touring), I still have an itch for one. Impressive bike! (too bad Triumph took it down a notch for the '24 /'25 models)
I bought my XC brand new in 21 and love it more each time I ride it.
Damn, this is such a great review of one of my top 3 bikes. Concise and to the point, by someone who knows a thing or two about off road bikes (and can prove it) judging by the footage! Nice one
Thanks for your nice comments, yeah, it's a great bike eh, Alex
Cool bike and nice review. The slightest hint of moisture with those tyres in an off road situation would be a disaster waiting to happen.
Big engine. Heavy bike.
nice well done got the old 53 A10 650 she a hand full in the bush
I guess it depends on what type of off road you ride. I bought a 1200X purely for road use and love it. 👍I also have an enduro bike for off road and at over 100kg less, stepping onto it from the Triumph makes you realise just how big these bikes are. If I ran only one bike for both on/off road I don't think it would be this even though I really like the classic styling. Agree 100% on the finish and build quality.👍
Delete the handguards should be first mod. 1st drop and it broke off on the clamp. Keep the pillion pegs on so when you drop it they protect the bike and give a better lay down angle for pickup
I really went for the 2024 Baja orange. She’s a peach of a bike!
Except nice firefighters trails or gravel I don’t use this bike off road. But for me it is a phenomenal road bike. I’m in the edge of height to handle the bike, I’m 5/11 tall, but I weigh 95 kgs, so the long travel of the suspension helps a lot. That’s not a real concern as the bike is very nimble and agile, very easy to manage on slow maneuvering, the wide handlebars are very useful and the bike is extremely well balanced. It’s not hard at all to ride . In traffic it’s also very cooperative filtering and due to the tall position of riding you see the way very clearly in front over the top of cars and another important pro is that it has an impressive road presence, so everyone sees you. Sometimes people who are driving cars don’t see the bikers and that’s one of the hazards of riding a bike, but here gladly, is not the case.
I’m very happy about this bike choice!
Thanks for the video and opinion. Loved it 👌🏻
How was the heat from the exhaust which I think is the number one complaint of the scrambler did you feel the heat much or have they done something about it great interview by the way many thanks take care 👍👋
Heat from the exhaust wasn't even a thing for me but I'm 6'1 and I think my leg's out of the way from it.
The catalytic converter in the 2022 and later models was moved to behind the riders legs so exhaust heat not so much of an issue any more (might be a bit hot for a pillion though). I have a 2023 (living in Brisbane, Australia) and have done 20,000kms and can’t complain about the heat.
The 2022 model moves the cat back. The 2024 bike adds some space between exhaust and cylinder head. There is no issue with heat, at all, on the 2024 bike
at 11:30 you said something that i want it to hear !! Ive got a T7 too but i think to sell it for Triumph 1200 XE ...
I'm also 6,1 tall ... Please man , tell me , what i loose and what i win if i left T7 for a Triumph 1200xe ...
Things like ,comfort , power , torque , agility and reliability ... Cheers from Greece !!!
Ah, this is interesting, yeah, I own a 2022 Yamaha Tenere World Raid which I use for adventure bike riding. I would do all the same stuff on the Triumph as I would do on the Tenere. I reckon you should test ride the Triumph, within seconds you will know if you like it or not, the power is amazing but there's more to it than that. I love the engine on the Triumph but the Tenere is enough for my style of riding on the road and off road. I also like that the Tenere's engine is only 700cc, I think it's more than enough, for my style.
@@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel theres no test drive at Greece of Triumph ,only 2 dealers here ,Thessaloniki & Athens , i live on a country so its very very difficult not only to test ride ,but to see one Triumph on the road ! its extremely rare !! Greece is full of Vstroms 650 and Tracers 900 !
Triumph its more torque than T7 by far or just a little bit ???
(ive already change hall exhaust system to T7 ,ive put dna stage 2 air filter and ive made ecu remap , 5.5hp more for T7 now)
How about top heavy feeling compare to those 2 bikes ???
Triumph is more nimble than T7 on the road ???
wish i hadn’t sold mine last year on an impulse ..
uuuuugh......again with a hideous, gaudy AF gold fork
