PLACEHOLDER: COLD START/REV VIDEO
When Triumph revived the Scrambler name back in 2006, the model was more of a road bike in disguise than a true off-road-worthy option. In fact, the Hinckley-based manufacturer even went so far as to introduce the “Street Scrambler” for those who wanted to look the part without venturing beyond anything other than groomed dirt roads. Based around the Bonneville’s 865cc powerplant, the Scrambler had a bit more rumble to it thanks to the crank being changed from 360 degrees to 270 degrees. This lead to basic specs of a claimed 54 peak horsepower at 7,000rpm and 51lb-ft. of torque at 5,000rpm. Triumph has kept the model quite similar during production with the biggest changes being black engine cases a year after its release, fuel injection in 2008, and dual instrument gauges in 2011.
Manufactured in April of 2011, this example is VIN: SMT925RN2CT497943.
The odometer shows XXXX miles.

Currently located in Long Beach, California, this Triumph is offered on a Bill of Sale only. There is a California plate on it but it is fake and was used for filming purposes only. Triumph provided this bike from new for promotional considerations for the TV show, we believe but are unable to confirm that it has never been titled/registered and it does not come up in our VIN report checks.
