Competition for Triboys Scrambler

[young1]

This doesn't look bad at all, but it would not have the soul of the Triumph (although it might be able to stay upright through stream crossings....)

[Taz]

Nice. Needs 21" front wheel though.

How can that compete with this, ok so it may have a few more ponies, but it ain't got the style:

[tri boy]

I'd like it's front brakes.

You get away with the scrambler because it's retro, thats really just a monster with knobs on, why?
@200 kgs it ain't light weight, not enough suspension to be serious and way too much power (the KTM990 makes 100 hp and that wheelspins almost anywhere). If they were serious they should give the multistrada a work over, there's a dual sport bike in the waiting!




I've now calmed down and realise it's something called "marketing", isn't it.

Carry on....

Can you imagine Triboy on one of those though, he would have to change his KB name for a start!!

I guess it could share some garage space with the Daytona/Scrambler/Bandit/Volty/bro in laws RMZF/nephewsYZ, hang on, there is no space

Put narrow bars on it and take it in through the front door! You can never have too many toys!

It's like the bike version of the Nissan Murano. The imposing, yet practical look of an off roader, but with none of the ability.

It's not a Ducati, it's a Moto Morini, 1200cc and 120hp of water-cooled v-twin muscle.

Imagine this in the race to the sky against the likes of the HP2!

[Crisis management]

It's not a Ducati, it's a Moto Morini,

Yeah Yeah, allright, honestly arguing about semantics here......


Maybe my one eyed Ducati lover brain is a bit too quick to react?

[trustme]

Semantics,!!!
Isn't that where no means yes & the lawyer got the 100k so it doesn't count

[Tony W]

One look at those mufflers and you can tell it's a wankmobile.

Am I allowed to be so blunt in this forum, or should I be more cryptic ?

[trustme]

Ya mean the bloke who buys this has got 2 willies cos no one gets that silly playing with just one . See ,, I can be cryptic too.
