New RE Scram 411 incoming
Discussion
As you may have seen, I started a thread a couple of weeks ago, where I was seriously thinking of ordering one of the lovely Triumph 400x Scramble bikes.
At the time they were £5595 new, however they have just increased another £200....not the end of the world, but annoying (a bit)
As I will probably only do less than 500 road miles PA, as I really plan to use it for messing about on the vast moors and quarries near me, I decided I could not really justify the expense, even though the Triumph is a lovely machine.
I then looked at the new Himalayan 450 RE's but at around £6k again, a bit much.
So I have settled on a blue 411 Scram, i know the engine is a bit old skool, but for £3900 brand new with three years warranty, I am sure it will do the job just fine.
Picking it up September to get the new registration, this will be my 32nd bike, thought my biking days were over....lol!

I was chatting to a fella on one in Kelso the other day. 8000 miles and not missed a beat. He obviously looked after it as it looked brand new but the paint/fasteners all looked good. Did the NC500 on it and basically said solo and legal speeds its great. Bit of a bargain atm I reckon. Enjoy
It's nice to see Triumph starting to tickle colour back into their range.PT1984 said:
How are you finding the Scram? Im seriously considering one as the price is silly cheap and they have now stopped production.
To be honest, I haven't been out on it yet, but on the ride home from the dealers I was very impressed. It's quite a big bike, and seems to have good build quality, the paint finish is superb.Go and have a look at one before it's too late.
