Thanks for all the great content and for keeping us entertained during such a crap year. Roll on sunny bike days 👍🏻
Your reviews are exceptional. Love looking at them every time. Have a Triumph Speed Twin and would like to buy another Triumph.... The Scrambler that is. This review has helped me but also made me laugh. Thanks for this... especially in this still special world today. Wish you all the best, lots of fun and safe miles.
What a beautiful looking bike,definitely best looking scrambler,great line up of bikes coming. Really looking forward to the crf 300.
The “why am I revving it” is exactly how I felt on my 2019 Africa Twin. Great upload Chops 👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent video as always Choperoo you almost lost it well recovered though top heavy bike, have a great Christmas and come back next year and do loads more good man.
Have a good one Chops 🎄, great review as always 👍🍺
Thanks for the great content this year Chopsy, wishing you, your family all your viewers a happy Christmas and hopefully better years to come! Cheers fella. 👍🍻🥧🎉❤👌

Thanks Chop!!! Merry Christmas from Apache Junction, AZ !!!
Oooo .. thats pretty 👏 .. and a happy chrimbo to you 🎄🌠🥳

I love mine to bits. I'm not sure I'd want to single track it much, but it's an amazing all surface bike which is useful here in Australia. I see you found the reason why I have the low mudguard soon enough, and they really do handle way better than they have any business handling with that 21" front. Arrow baffles can be pulled but it's a cut job. Personally I put the Zard slip on on mine, bit louder with the baffle in, baffles come out with a split ring if you're feeling properly unsociable, and there's an option for a steel end cap. Didn't think carbon suits the rest of the bike.

I've a rally pro and love it. I do about 80 percent on 20 percent off road its competent at both but a massive strength is comfort on long road miles, big seat, good windshield and excellent ergos. I'm imagining the scrambler not so good or different on long days, so ask yourself what you want it for.
Merry xmas, Chopsy! 🍗⛄🌲 🏍

Lovely video Chops - nice little dig at TMF... but I'm sure he's more into his plugs... butt plugs! As a bike, have you ridden the Speed Twin, I'm looking at getting a Speed Twin late next year and hoping to find a second hand one, do you think on road it's better or just different to the Scrambler? I found the 900 quite tall when I test rode it this year.
@LambChopRides
3 жыл бұрын
The speed Twin seemed faster to me.. its 5 BHP more and 5 kg less and that does seem to make a difference! Being taller the Scrambler suits me better but Speed Twin is I think the more practical bike out of the two. Haha loves a plug 😂

Great looking bike, though for a fun weekend hack I’d take the smaller Street Scrambler at sun-£10K any day of the week👍😊👌
Genuinely lol'd quite a few times, watching this, especially at TMF's golden shower. Very entertaining vid. Not my sort of bike but it's clearly very nice if you're in the market for this type of thing. Very classy. Makes you proud to be British.....& Thai. ; )

I’ve had petrol stolen out of the tank of a GT550 Suzuki hooked upto a sidecar. Most likely to happen during petrol strikes. I’d consider a Triumph 900 Rally Pro with the more aggressive dual purpose tyres and extras.
How was the heat from the exhaust? I'd imagine the heat shield next to your leg would have to be quite thick.

Do you think you could get a test on a Fantic Caballero 500 scrambler? I know Missenden Flyer did a test ride and liked it but I wonder how they would go with a heftier carcass onboard! That 1200 is just too big, heavy and expensive to be taking off road for my liking.

If you’re a fan of the Triumph Scrambler, read Forgotten Road by Randall Arthur. The whole last half of the book highlights the Scrambler with numerous on-road adventures. The book is a work of fiction, but supposedly the adventures in the book are all based on Arthur’s real-life experiences.

Back in the day, Steve McQueen did a jump Bonnie. Now this one will appear in a Bond film... that's cool but doesn't quite live up to Chris Pratt riding the old Scrambler with his pack of Raptors. We just have to accept that the ultimate moment for motorcycles in movies has already been done, and will never be surpassed.
Totally agree about neutral. One of the reasons I sold my 2020 S1000RR; finding neutral was an utter bitch. Not good enough for £20k.
Looks ,not for me! Any updates on the Ducati?
Lol getting sprayed in the face, excrement flinging and golden showers..I might get myself a scrambler it sounds fun 😂
The 2018+ honda gold wing is very hard to find neutral...I bitch it out every time!!!

Think what you didnt like is its trying to do multiple things.. onroad, offroad, retro, modern.. its does a decent job of pulling it off but there are compromises..
Chops.on the green laning, as a rider of an old shitter trail bike. I can say it goes where my mate 8 grand ktm's go. But its certainly harder work. Just with a cheaper trail bike dont expect to do anything like an enduro. Enjoy the Xmas.
Would like to ride with you one day chops Would be fun
Hi John, general question (Great review by the way) Triumph has been trading on its Britishness for a long time now, it is its biggest USP. The vast majority of its bikes are now made in Chonburi, Thailand, and one in Manaus, Brazil. Triumph has now stated that it will not be reducing its prices to reflect the hugely reduced manufacturing cost. Couple this with the premium Triumph charges UK customers (compare prices to the USA and other major countries) is Triumph taking the Micky out of the very hand that feeds it? I would just be interested in your thoughts - Thanks
It might be time to compare it to the Africa twin ?

Great bike. However, if you come off it on the dirt even at just 10mph, it's gonna cost you around 5 grand (a new tank costs 1200 quid), which your insurance won't pay. So insure for the dirt cos everyone drops a bike on the dirt.
