I was surprised that the price for the new 900 scrambler is only £300 more than the previous one. Doesn't seem too bad given that you now get Brembo brakes, 18% more power, better suspension, etc, etc. I was expecting it to be higher!
I was reading about this just yesterday after work. The author, Lemmy, in revzillas' "common thread" had the same comments. I certainly agree that all the improvements with Both the Scrambler and Street Twin are well worth a paltry $300 price increase. If you don't subscribe to the common thread, It's free on the Revzilla website!
Hope even better fuel economy too although I’m not at all unhappy with 72 mpg on my 18 plate Scrambler. Think I would always stick with the smaller engines as the new 1200s (as I’ve read for the Tigers), are just too thirsty
I’ve got a 1200 Thruxton and get roughly 155 miles on 10 litres when riding sensibly this drops to about 100 miles when ridden hard
