    I totally understand how you feel about this bike. I had a Rninet and a Monster 1200s. So I had 3 bikes at the same time. I ended up trimming off the other 2 and keeping the scrambler. I use this bike for everything quick local runs to the market to camping and hunting trips. This bike does everything I need.

    I own a 1200 XC since two years. I came from a Triumph T120. The Scrambler is a so much better touring bike. Love so ❤

    I've loved traveling on mine. Really stands out when you're somewhere really remote too, compared to the sea of ADV bikes that look roughly the same.

    Hey man. I love my 19 as a Adv tourer. It’s a great bike. Haven’t meshed with a bike like this one in along time. Thanks for your continued content on the bike.

    Thanks for the video. Love the Scrambler 1200 (xc) Just returned from a 3 day ride. Use a 30L ADVWORX dribag on the seat/rack, secured with 2 rok straps. Perfect for me.
    Was wondering if you have any thoughts on an aftermarket horn ? Orig sounds lame.

    I think those highway pegs are from Illium Works 😉

    Thank you, great video! I’m looking forward to doing the fork covers and upper engine bars. Did you have any trouble or have to improvise installing the uppers when you already have lowers? I also wish you knew where to get those foot pegs. I bought some on Amazon or eBay and they weren’t near long enough for my foot to have adequate purchase when wrapping around the lower engine bars. Glad to know a solution exists in the world. Cheers

      One of the bolts (upper right side) was quite difficult to access. I had to ise a stubby spanner to get in the space. Otherwise easy to fit.

    Good video, thanks for that. I've only recently got my scrambler having ridden gsa's for years. Love the scrambler. A question though. How have you found the rear suspension for touring? Std setup feels very hard to me but I've not had the bike long..

      Have you adjusted it?

      Yes but finding a comfortable setting hard to find.

      Mine is standard and fine by me. One of the few bikes on which I've not changed it.
