Guy walks into a paint shop, "paint it shit brown we some flames on it". Proper job!
"Shit Brown with Flames Green" is the correct choice.

I had a 66 650 Bonneville TT special, never jumped it but rode it hard. I would really like to ride the 1200. My last big British Twin was an 850 Norton commando. I am 67 years young but still love to go fast on a good ride. Love your videos Guy, keep up the good work.

@Doggo Wrangler No it does't what. No one ever said it did something. I never said a street bike was good off road. Steve McQueen obviously didn't listen to "Experts" like you when he successfully jumped the Triumph Bonneville 650 and did his own stunts in the Great Escape Movie.
"A phone charge under the seat... I don't want my phone with me" LOL
Was on the fence between a Honda cb650r and a Triumph 660. After seeing this I'mma go with the Triumph. Thanks Guy 😉

I'm pretty sure Triumph has sponsored Guy's jump, he's possibly a paid shill for Triumph. Guy Martin, a Isle of Man racer, probably isn't too impressed with the Triumph Scrambler, just sayin'.

Steve McQueen did all these stunts himself and he is the German chasing him in the movie. He was a hell raiser from what they say.

Have you seen Le Mans? Legend has it, Porsche wanted him to race IRL for the 24 hours, but wasn't allowed. Later in the real life race weekend it was filmed at, he donned one of the driver's helmets, and did a stint. Hellraiser when it comes to motor-racing, is a GREAT thing, as long as they are able and capable, and not put anyone else's life at risk. Speaking of which, Guy competing at the Le Mans 24 hours would be absolutely fucking fantastic.

Steve McQueen's dramatic fence-jump in the 1963 classic The Great Escape has been named the greatest movie motorcycle scene ever in a new survey by motorcycle insurer Lexham Insurance. The high-speed leap was made on a Triumph TR6 Trophy by stunt double Bud Ekins, after McQueen crashed attempting the stunt himself.

these are only clips of the full length show. It wouldn't surprise me if triumph didn't say how much weight they stripped though as it might make potential customers think that triumph bikes are overweight.
I took the silencer off my Triumph Scrabbler and put on straight pipes. The roar scares the Devil himself.

Basic weight reduction would have been the first thing I'd have done.. Lay off the biscuits with your tea!

Now guy needs to lose a little weight 👍😆
Just send it on your superbike
triumph go and sponsor guy martin to build a bike based on the scramble or thruxton your bikes are just too heavy to be offroad... something like the weight of the st675 about 170kg with higher suspension
does guy look at these comments or maintain the channel? or even get a response from the media team/ person who looks at this?

the bike does 0-60 in under four seconds weighs around 400lbs can be pinned at 130mph it is a dream enduro you have no clue what your talking about it is a whole second or two slower then a doge demon or a hellcat....or even a 911 it is an enduro not a street bike an by the way you speak I doubt you have anything quicker then that 1200xc it is as quick as most kawasaki ninjas you know nothing an your speaking out of your ass an on top of that its an ednuro dual sport that is quicker then your street bike... that is light enough to be launched it really is a greatly made bike they though of alot in its design it does the quarter mile stock in 12 seconds an if you change the gear ratio I bet it would do it in 10

@@marcoopolo888 When you get a trollish statement like OP's it can be easy to take short cuts when you know better. Cody is right, it's all relative. Scramblers, Trials and Enduro bikes aren't going to win speed contests, but the torque a 1200 gives you over difficult terrain and the adjustability of a scrambler with a good 250 or 450 motor is essential for positioning on take off and landing. Also Enduro's need to be as good a pack horse/mule so you need a strong engine like a 1200. Speed machines like Guy's company bike don't need to be overly torquey but need to rev to hell and back to put out 200+hp and no weight to move and aero to be stable at speed. Most scramblers and enduro rev to between 5 and 8 thousand rpm while racers will peak at 9-10 thousand for production bikes (some will go to 12 thousand rpm) while racers normally peak between 12-14 thousand rpm.

I’ve had my ScramblerXE for 9 months and already have 10k+ miles on it...not km...miles. If you’d like to talk about how the bike runs, I’d be willing to answer all of your questions.
