    Remember that the first scramblers (and Cafe-Racers) were not produced by companies, but modified road bikes. In WWII Motorcycle messengers took hardtail bikes off road, like Harley WLA or BSA M20. What I see in a scrambler like the modern Triumph or Ducati is a bike you can travel on, clock up some serious miles on road, and don't have to be afraid of a stretch of gravel road or worse. They would be too heavy for the scottish six days. Like an adventure bike, but with style.

    I have been watching these Scrambler reviews a long time and almost all of them say that Scramblers can’t off-road good but after buying one and trying it myself I would argue that they do almost as well as a dirt bike but that might be because I have been riding almost all my life off road. All in all any motorcycle can do almost anything if the right rider is on it.

    I could see the use of a modern scrambler, I feel like adv, enduros, dirt bikes and so on, are all in the same category but on different scales, I mean:
    Pure offroad? dirt bikes
    Long trips on road and offroad? ADV bikes
    Short trips mosly offroad but need it to be road legal? Enduro
    Long trips mostly offroad? Rally raid
    Medium distances mostly on road but with some offroad? I think the modern scrambler could fit right here, mostly a "regular" road bike with some offroad capability.
    You might argue that there is a big "poser factor" in the scrambler buyer, but isn't there a little of "poser factor" in everey motorcycle category? I am sure you have met the BMW GS guy with full metal panniers that has never seen a bit of dirt in his entire life and I am sure you have met the full dainese suit super sport guy with tyres with chicken strips as big as his brand new puck sliders

    When I was looking at buying my first bike I started in the scrambler section because they looked cool and I was enticed by the idea that they could be good off road. I quickly discovered that a lot of the modern scrambler market is very fashion over function. If you want a bike for hopping around an urban area that has a lot of curb appeal, the scrambler/cafe racer section may be a nice option. For me I wanted a bike I could feel comfortable putting on dirt roads that was comfortable enough to take longer distances, simple, reliable, and easy to maintain. For those reasons I ended up going with a KLR 650. I'm not a speed freak and the simplicity and durability of the KLR was what ended up winning me over. ADV bikes are not the prettiest, so you might not get the barista's phone number, but you're also a little less likely to have your bike stolen. If your goal is really going off road and don't care about fashion, dual sports are definitely the way to go. Don't be dissuaded by the fashion over function argument though; just be honest with yourself. Attractive bikes are popular for a reason and if aesthetics matter to you don't feel bad about getting something that looks good. On the same note, if off road functionality is more important try not to get lured into a bike that looks good, but struggles in the dirt. You'll have more fun riding something that you aren't afraid to drop!

Picking one up after you fell off, standing in pouring rain, slimy wet clay underfoot, on a slope with water pouring down it. Yeah, right. No way. They are way too heavy. The dirt bike is the true scrambler.

  • @RKmndo
    @RKmndo 5 років тому +1

    A scrambler was a naked street standard that was modified to better travel in the dirt. It was often stripped to the bare essentials, and modified with tall bars, high exhaust, and knobbier tires. A skid plate was also a smart addition. The modern scramblers can be made much more dirtworthy, usually by stripping weight and changing tires. Suspension upgrades also help.
    An enduro is basically a dirtbike with lights, although some also have the road-legal equipment of mirrors and horn. A modern dualsport adds mirrors, horn, and usually some more road amenities...like a cush-hub rear wheel, vibe-reduction features, passenger accomodations, an odometer/trip, and a wider overall gearspread.
    Adv bikes typically add range and comfort features, often for a passenger too, like a fairing, more cylinders for power/smoothness, fuel range, payload capacity, and electrical charging capacity. They're long-range dirt-capable touring bikes, designed to slab across a continent, then tackle challenging dirt roads, with the focus being on long-range slab capability, whereas dualsports are usually less focused on long-range slabbing, and more on shorter and/or slower pavement runs to retain more dirt ability by being lighter, more agile, more durable, and easier to fieldfix.

    Scrambler is more of a marketing term these days, but I think the traditional definition is:
    Scrambler: a street bike that is adapted for riding off-road.
    Dual-Sport: a dirt bike that is adapted to riding on the street.

    Dear Flappy Tube,
    this year I bought my first bike, a cheap but new 125cc scrambler. It is fairly gutless on the motorway and I shit my pants getting overtaken by HGVs. On Dartmoor where I live however, it is something else, allowing me to tear over the winding roads and rough moorland alike at respectable speeds. Besides that I get many comments on the great look of the bike, so I would argue that it is a legitimate scrambler through and through.

    A scrambler is basically what a cafe racer would be, if you ever expect to at some point find yourself trying to cross a beach or field etc and need your bike to be able to cope with the terrain - after which you continue on the paved road. Nothing more, nothing less.

Fast enough for most situations but obviously not meant to ride at 120km/h on the motorway for hours. Horses for courses and for Paris and it's surroundings, I can't think of a better motorcycle. Although if I had a bigger garage, I could probably add another 5 different bikes just for variety.

      Agreed. This is maybe the first true production scrambler, even if that's sort of an oxymoron. The world has changed, and Ducati and Triumph are filling the actual needs of buyers. No shame in having a scrambler-looking Icon or Street. Where I live, the streets require something a bit tougher, but I don't want a true off-roader. Adventure bikes are the new scramblers, and the new scramblers are really naked adventure bikes. I just rode the Triumph Tiger (on an actual adventure) and the 1200 XC. The XC is so much nicer for the real world, and I'd happily take it into the dirt. Just because it came from the factory doing the job of a scrambler doesn't mean it's not a scrambler.

      I can see more point to cafe racers than over-weight scramblers that are hard to pick up if they get dropped. Dropping them must happen often when off road.
      Cafe racers are like sports cars on the road. More streamlined, a bit uncomfortable, but to the purpose of going and handling that bit better than less purposeful vehicles.
      Scramblers look like hard to pick up and handle dirt bikes. If off road you'd be better off with a lighter dirt bike.

    I think Lemmy said it best - modern scramblers are best described as naked ADV bikes.

    Scramblers bikes are a trend in my country where classic bike groups build their bikes scrambler, yes the form is there but they all look the same. Haha!

    I use to take my zx11 out for some dirt. Though I could only manage dirt roads with its low ground clearance lol. But there was something magical about the 200 foot rooster tail.

    In a way, Yamaha makes the only true scrambler in the form of the TW200. Though, it takes twenty seconds to reach 70mph.

      They'd probably do that if there were more demand for bikes like the TW200. I mean, I only found out about it last week. Strange that they've been making them since 1990...

    Can you make a video on some items we wear for safety or convenience that other people assume they're for style only? Like jackets I'm general and leather in particular, also bandanas under the helmet, boots, etc..

    A scrambler is a bike used to race scrambles. A cafe race is a street build that mimics an Isle of man TT racer and is used for street races. The modern variants are for that or are retro styled standard bikes for people that want a look. They are the vinyl perfecto jacket of motorcycles. If you like it rock it scrambler, sumo, race replica, hand build chopper, factory custom just ride your ride and don't over think it. Cool vid though I like the moto history and funny lists. The channel feels more like a podcast than a standard guy riding around babbling on vlog.

    Yo papa yam, i guess the real meaning of scrambler is like that egg you cooked this morning, its just a mix of everything, dual-sport or off-road riding offered in a EASY, and Gentle way to approach.
