tvscum 43 Posted February 29, 2012 Hey guys, I know I am entering the land of BMWs and KTMs, but I just purchased a 2012 Triumph Scrambler and I am looking forward to hitting the dirt! I upgraded the suspension front and rear. Now, I am slowly working my way back into the backcountry roads of San Diego, after more than 20 years. In the 1980s, I used to ride enduro thumpers (see bike history in my signature) in San Diego and Baja. Now in my late 40s, I commute to work daily on my Scram. I am hoping to ride with some of you dual sporters on the weekends. Nothing too technical because this Scrambler is about a 500 lb bike. The travel on the suspension is also pretty short. Still, it can handle some mellow truck trails. My Scram recently made a cameo appearance in this News 8 video report here in San Diego. See the Boulder Creek Rd. bonus video. See you on the trails!
