Triumph Street Scrambler: 900 cm³ scrambler-style motorcycle, what to know when buying
Triumph Street Scrambler — produced since 2017, this scrambler-style motorcycle features a 900 cm³ twin-cylinder engine. We look at the versions, engine, and what to check when buying used.
Street Scrambler in brief
The Street Scrambler is based on Street Twin technology but has a different style: a higher exhaust system, wider handlebars, and a larger front wheel. It's better suited for light off-road conditions as well as city streets and casual backroads.
This is a versatile motorcycle for the city, roads, and non-demanding off-road sections.
Versions and updates
The first version appeared in 2017 with an approximately 55 hp 900 cm³ engine. Later, the engine was updated — power increased to around 65 hp.
In subsequent years, the Street Scrambler was replaced by another model, so in the used market, you'll mostly find 2017 and later motorcycles.
Engine and gearbox
The Street Scrambler has a 900 cm³ liquid-cooled twin-cylinder engine, known for its smooth, low-rev torque.
The gearbox is manual. In Europe, an A2-compliant version was also offered, so check the power in the documents.
What to check when buying a used Street Scrambler
Inspect the motorcycle for signs of off-road use and wear: broken spokes, bent handlebars, damaged exhaust guard. Check the tyres and brakes.
Test the electronics — ABS, traction control, and the instrument cluster. Ask for the service history.
Many motorcycles come with additional extras (safety, luggage). Check if they're fitted properly.
