Does Anyone have a 1200 scrambler (Triumph)

Do any Adventure Riding members have or know of someone who has a Triumph Scrambler 1200 xc or xe?
I’ll soon be in a position to get an xc and although I’ve seen numerous reviews, it would be great
to get ‘word on the street’.

It would be great to get some perspectives. Opinions about the bike welcome.

Thanks Harry

Hi Harry
Picked mine up last week, went for the xc

What’s it like? Does it take some getting used to? I’ll be getting the xc as well. The xe is too tall for me.

Xc is the best choice for me
I’m 5’10 flat foot 1 foot, balls for 2 feet.
Yes big Cc, but good torque through the gears.
Once riding because it’s slim it feels smaller than stationary
Still taking it easy but have 2 x 2 day trips away later this month, I’ll post my thoughts after that.
But have to say I can’t see me being disappointed.
