The 675 Speed Triple is going to tempt me, unless I can't do without the 1050's torque.

I'd be interested to check it out too. Wonder what the pricing would be like.
Expect $15-16k?

the new scrambler is superb!!!

I Had a look at the new scrambler yesterday, very retro, looks kind of cool but the questions I had in my mind was 1/ why? and 2/ What for?
neat and all that but Im not sure why you would buy one, where would you use it how would you use it, its one of those bikes that is cool in looks but good for fuck all of anything.

You live in a small world - take some side roads and find out where the Scrambler would do just fine....

Amen to that.

I know that road Bonez. I must say after the third sign over the course of 50 minutes that said "Alfredton 27km" I was getting a bit dazed.

It was fun though.

Managed to get a snap of one of the locals. Two old nags as it were.

Any hint or whisper of the price for the 675? Arrival and how many for little NZ?
WMCC said if you don't put down any dollars you wont get one.

No sorry - I don't know.
I do know they are going to be hard to get for at least 12 months maybe 18. Worldwide interest and pre-orders have been 'phenomenal'.
The earlier you sling some money down the further up the list you'll be.
Bit hard without knowing how much.

A bit more expensive than a Honda and cheaper than a Harley is a safe bet.

All i know. I'll ask further.

The scramber is 205kgs and 54hp, are they trying to compete with Harley for power to weight?

Maybe - there is a significant number of people who are quite happy with that ratio.

I suspect people who might have bought a sportster willl be attracted to the Scrambler.

Did you see my thoughts on it?
