Triumph Street Scrambler launched at Rs. 8.10 lakh

Triumph has launched the Street Scrambler in India at price of at Rs. 8.10 lakh (ex-showroom, India). The retro-style, naked bike is available in three colours - Jet Black, Matt Khaki Green and Korosi Red & Frozen Silver with jet black hand painted coach lining and tank decals.

The Street Scrambler is based on the Street Twin, but gets a tweaked chassis. It comes with wider handle bars and a lower seat (790 mm) resulting in a more upright riding position. The bike measures 831 mm in width, 1,120 mm in height and has a wheelbase of 1,446 mm. It weighs 206 kg dry and has a fuel tank capacity of 12 litres. The bike comes with a 41 m KYB fork suspension at the front and twin KYB shock absorbers at the rear. 

The bike features minimal bodywork, an interchangeable pillion seat, aluminium rear rack, removable pillion pegs and hangers, toothed front pegs for better grip and a bash plate. The Street Scrambler also gets twin-barrel, high-mounted side exhausts, an LED tail lamp, and a single-pod instrument cluster with a digital readout and analogue tachometer.

The Street Scrambler uses the same 900cc, 8-valve, SOHC, parallel-twin cylinder engine that powers the Street Twin, albeit in a slightly different state of tune. The liquid-cooled engine delivers 54 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 80 Nm @ 2,850 rpm. The motor is paired with a 5-speed transmission with a torque assist clutch. It features a ride-by-wire throttle, switchable ABS and traction control.

The bike comes with 19-inc and 17-inch wire-spoke at the front and rear respectively shod with Metzeler Tourance tyres. It uses the same brake setup as the Street Twin with a single 310 mm front disc paired with a Nissin two-piston calliper and a 255 mm rear disc. 

The Street Scrambler has a service interval of 16,000 km.
