The Coolest Motorcycle for Desert Riding 

Awesome seeing someone else enjoy those trails and roads on the scrambler! The bike loves Reddington once you make it past the rough first 10 miles or so. Great content as always!

I want that triumph so bad! At least I feel great having a DR650 in my garage.

Great video, the passion you have comes through. Thanks for sharing! I was so close to purchasing one of these but ended up with the Rally Pro, would like to do more touring. The Scrambler has so much character though!

love the footage and the music footage - free of enjoyment of dirt riding!

Greeting from Canada, thanks for sharing that! Can't wait to ride mine (Scrambler XE) in Baja California this May! Mine is equipped with Mitas E10 Dakar for this trip.

Love ❤ The DR650

Love the XC/XE. Your videos are really good too!

awesome video !!!!!!!!! i know its hard to ride so a heavy bike on sand, but u did exceptionally great !

great ride I am jealous

Lolz I have a Street Scrambler and a DR and I do kinda agree with Marek. What an awesome trip!

“Bikes fall over easily when you can’t touch the ground” - tell me about it 😂 Glad to see you guys tearing it up and having fun in the desert- I hope to ride the desert someday

Ouch! Beautiful vistas.

Awesome! THIS is, what Scramblers are made for... I sold my Triumph Scrambler 1200 XC and bought a Ducati Scrambler 1100 Sport - what a mistake. Now I am going to sell the Duc and I'll find back to the Triumph. I hope to ride the desert one day. Epic video, congrats 🙂

I'd love to ride that trail with you next time you are in Tucson!

Man what mirrors are those? Great video by the way!! Can’t wait to rip mine around the desert of El Paso

great bike!! Based on the way you ride, I do think you should go take some off road classes, it protects you in the long run.

No great surprise trying to ride a street bike off road! I had a little go on one a few days ago. I think Triumph has hoodwinked loads of people into thinking that by using the name scrambler and having long suspension they can convince you to ride a 1200cc monster off road. Wait till the frame cracks! Seriously, if its power you want, get a KTM 1290, at least they are designed to go off road. I bet it's a hoot on smooth surfaces though. The bike seems very popular. I had a test recently but I certainly didn't go off road, only in town round a few blocks. I like the retro looks but it's expensive and ultimately misleading; you'll need to spend a ton to get it bash proof. Check out Life of a Scrambler channel if you haven't already, poor bloke cracked his frame! Some other guy said that he cracked his while jumping on the pegs while the bike was parked! I'm glad that they fixed the exhaust with the new model. Interesting you say it's good in sand compared to the other triumph, possibly it's the wheelbase? It's really long when you sit on it. I love the front forks too, I think they are snazzier than the other model and match the eye catching rear set up.

I’m lucky enough to have both. For any real dual sport/off-road riding I gotta say I much prefer the DR650. That said my Triumph is much much better on the highway and has that awesome classic look to it.

Killer bike.

Hi man thank you for this nice video. My I ask you where you bought the bag racks? Unit Garage? Thanks!

Do you have a video on your luggage setup?

Love your video... love this bike. One question though. How tall are you ? I dont know you mentioned it in the video i missed it.

I can tell some of the roads and trails by sight. In fact I know exactly where you dumped the SS. I'd love to know where else around Tucson you're riding. I'd love to try them out on mine.

Hey, great video, which rack system do you have?

You can get a ktm adventurer for a fraction of a triumph and the frane won't crack. Engine stall.

Is that MT. Lemmon in the background

if you don't mind mate may i know the exhaust heat on 1200xe or 900 scrambler on a hot weather. Im a south asian and the weather here is hot and planning to get one of the scrambler.

Hello sir, i have a X 500 aventura honda, i only have one year experience on normal city road and back roads, my friends have endurance motorcycle, they are planning to go to Morocco, Morocco has back roads and ruff road's as we tracks maybe as well ruff tracks, is my motorcycle as it's a X500 adventure capable for this journey? I'm not to sure to ride from Tangiers to the south of Morocco. Will the suspension handle it all these tracks?

9:30 Incorrect. DR is still coolest, still runs even with a broken piston!🤣

What tires?

SW Motech Fly Screen? I love that look!

Triumph bikes have CRAPPY WEAK FRAMES that are PRONE TO CRACKING by the kickstand.

The fuel tank is too small

This is NOT an off road bike. Look how slow they have to take any roughness in the surface. It’s way too big, way too heavy, way too powerful. Nice bike - but it’s really just a cruiser that can do smooth gravel roads.

you're better off with a honda crf300

Honestly, I don't understand the point of a scrambler these days. a scrambler is clearly inferior to an adventure motorcycle off-road and it doesn't handle any better on the road either.
