Pros
- It gets a bunch of styling updates. These include a new brushed aluminium headlight bracket, new throttle body finishers, heel guard, and a new side panel with an aluminium number board. The fuel tank skips the rubberised grip pads for a cleaner look and the seats are now covered in Alcantara-like upholstery that's more adventure-oriented.
- The Street Scrambler is powered by a 900 cc parallel-twin engine which delivers 64.1 bhp at 7,250 rpm and peak torque of 80 Nm at 3,250 rpm. Transmission is handled by a 5-speed gearbox aided by a torque-assist clutch.
- The Street Scrambler comes with advanced rider focussed technology, including three riding modes - Road, Rain and Off-Road, switchable ABS and switchable traction control. The bike comes with a semi-digital instrument cluster, with new premium details, like brushed Aluminium headlight brackets, a LED headlight and taillight, key-fob incorporated immobiliser, new throttle body finishes, a USB charging socket and new side panels with an aluminium number board.
- The 2021 Triumph Street Scrambler is available with a range of 120 optional accessories which offer more personalisation. Accessories include 25-litre rugged panniers, engine cover protectors, a traditional Scrambler bench seat and many more custom accessories.
Cons
- Heat management is likely to be a problem with the 2021 Triumph Street Scrambler. The 900 cc parallel-twin engine heats up in traffic, especially in a hot, tropical country like India, where it is hot for a majority of the year. The good-looking side-mounted double-barrel exhaust coupled with the engine heat is likely to give you a tough time in the summer months, especially in traffic.
- Despite its name, the Street Scrambler is more suited for on-road jaunts than off-road excursions. Yes! It does get an off-road mode, switchable traction control and ABS but lack of long travel and adjustable suspension, especially up front may rob seasoned enthusiasts of a more 'advanced' off-road experience.
