2006 Triumph Scrambler
$7,999.00
For
2006
the
parallel
twin-cylinder
Scrambler
adds
a
new
twist
to
the
Modern
Classics
range
and
is
a
fresh
take
on
some
iconic
bikes
from
Triumph’s
past.
It’s
a
redefinition
of
the
bikes
made
famous
by
50’s
thrill-seekers
such
as
Steve
McQueen,
into
a
contemporary
urban
context.
A
‘do
anything,
go
anywhere’
kind
of
bike,
inspired
in
part
by
the
relaxed
culture
of
sunny
California
and
in
part
by
the
stylishness
of
southern
European
scooter
aficionados,
the
Scrambler
has
been
specifically
developed
for
a
particular
group
of
riders
currently
underserved
in
the
market.
While
diverse
in
their
demographics
and
riding
experience
these
riders
share
the
view
that
motorcycling
is
great
fun,
socially
acceptable
and
a
liberating
experience.
Crucially
though,
they
aren’t
interested
in
riding
fast
and
are
not
motivated
by
performance
or
other
benchmark
figures.
As
a
result
these
riders
desire
a
bike
that’s
easy
and
unintimidating
to
ride,
with
or
without
passenger,
in
the
rough
and
smooth
parts
of
town
or
out
and
about
on
a
longer
jaunt.
Added
to
this
is
a
wish
for
the
bike’s
design
to
make
a
distinctive,
personal
statement
that
appeals
to
and
is
understood
by
both
their
biking
and
non-biking
peers.
Enter
the
Scrambler.
Very
few
motorcycles
can
claim
to
be
unique
but
the
Scrambler,
thanks
to
its
authentic
styling
is
certainly
one
of
them.
The
flat
seat,
small
headlight
and
single
speedometer
help
mark
its
difference
as
do
the
pair
of
upswept
exhaust
pipes.
Only
Triumph,
with
the
brand’s
strength
and
sense
of
its
own
history
could
credibly
produce
such
a
machine,
creating
a
whole
new
niche
of
motorcycle
in
the
process.
The
Scrambler’s
865
cc,
DOHC,
8-valve,
air-cooled
engine
uses
a
270°
crank
firing
interval
for
a
smooth
and
torquey
power
delivery.
With
a
bore
and
stroke
of
90
x
68
mm
and
compression
ratio
of
9.2:1
the
engine
also
features
twin
carburetors
with
throttle
position
sensors.
Peak
power
of
54
bHP
arrives
at
7,000
rpm
(with
maximum
torque
of
51
lbs.
ft.
available
at
5,000
rpm)
and
is
fed
to
the
rear
wheel
via
a
5-speed
gearbox
and
chain
final
drive.
Using
a
sturdy
tubular
steel
cradiatorle
frame
and
long-travel
suspension
front
and
rear
–
41
mm
telescopic
forks
and
twin
chromed
spring
preload-adjustable
rear
shocks
–
the
Scrambler
is
built
tough,
to
iron
out
the
bumps.
Its
high,
wide
handlebars
and
high-set
footpegs
further
aid
control
and
low-speed
maneuverability.
The
wheels
are
spoked
and
sized
19
x
2.5
in.
(front)
and
17
x
3.5
in.
(rear).
Both
wear
light-knobby
tires
in
sizes
100/90-19
and
130/80-17.
Twin
piston
calipers
are
used
for
both
brakes,
the
front
working
a
single
310
mm
disc,
the
rear
a
255
mm
disc.
Steering
geometry
is
set
at
27.6°
of
rake
with
103
mm
of
trail
with
a
wheelbase
of
59.1
in.
The
Scrambler
has
a
dry
weight
of
451
lbs.
Fittingly,
for
such
an
individual
machine
a
whole
range
of
Triumph
Factory
accessories
will
be
available
for
the
Scrambler,
all
of
which
enhance
its
looks
as
well
as
adding
functionality.
They
include
a
skid
plate
to
protect
the
underneath
of
the
engine,
headlamp
grill,
number
boards
for
the
sides
(obviously
with
no.
278
as
an
option),
Tachometer,
handlebar
brace
and
a
single
seat
and
rack.
Two
paint
schemes
–
Two-tone
Caspian
Blue
/
White
and
Two-tone
Tornado
Red
/
White
underscore
its
retro
appeal.
The
Scrambler,
like
its
forbears,
has
a
distinct
look,
feel
and
personality
all
its
own.
It
offers
iconic
style,
genuine
usability
and
above
all
a
great
escape
(pun
intended…)
from
the
hum
drum
of
every
day. |
2006 Triumph Daytona
675
$8,999.00
Triumph
motorcycles
have
long
had
a
sense
of
their
own
purpose
and
a
sense
of
distinction
and,
against
a
mass
of
homogenous
product,
Triumph
motorcycles
stand
out
as
being
unique.
Simply
put,
they're
not
like
other
bikes
in
look,
feel
and
character.
This
is
a
planned
evolutionary
process
that
has
become
clearer
over
the
last
two
years
with
bikes
like
the
stunning
Rocket
III,
iconic
Speed
Triple
and
breathtaking
Sprint
ST.
These
bikes
are
evidence
of
a
real
focus
and
desire
from
Triumph
to
build
their
bikes,
their
way.
It's
a
process
that
has
gathered
great
success
in
terms
of
worldwide
sales,
press
appreciation
and
brand
identification.
Which
is
why,
from
the
very
first
stages
of
planning,
designing
and
building
the
revolutionary
Daytona
675,
Triumph
decided
to
expand
and
build
on
that
difference
and
one
single
word
was
chosen
to
inspire
the
whole
project:
'Incomparable'.
The
Daytona
675
stands
alone
in
the
hotly
contested
sports
bike
arena
and
while
others
might
compare
it
to
a
myriad
of
motorcycles,
it's
very
much
a
statement
of
how
a
pure
Triumph
sports
bike
should
look
and,
just
as
importantly,
feel.
In
one
single
stroke
it
has
redefined
just
how
a
middleweight
sports
bike
should
perform,
packing
as
it
does
a
large
amount
of
power
and
torque
into
a
small,
nimble
package.
In
the
sports
bike
market
many
machines
are
seen
almost
as
disposable
by
their
owners
and
treated
accordingly.
In
contrast
Triumph's
wish
for
the
675
Daytona
was
to
create
an
exciting
bike
that
owners
will
never
tire
of
looking
at,
cherishing
and
above
all
else,
riding.
Added
to
this
was
a
desire
not
only
to
build
the
most
exciting
and
useable
sports
bike
that's
ever
left
the
Hinckley
factory,
but
also
to
steal
the
crown
for
the
most
beautiful
sports
bike
in
the
market.
The
first
three-cylinder
middleweight,
the
Daytona
675
stands
apart
immediately
with
its
inimitable,
spine-tingling
sound
and
feel.
Integral
to
this
is
the
triple's
inherent
advantage
of
masses
of
bottom-end
torque,
linked
to
a
heavy
mid-range
punch
that's
topped
with
a
searing
burst
of
peak
power.
Alongside
the
desire
for
a
strong,
torquey
engine,
a
key
part
of
the
design
brief
for
the
brand
new
675
cc
power
plant
was
to
make
the
water-cooled,
three-cylinder,
12-
valve
unit
extremely
compact
and
narrow,
contributing
to
the
overall
slimness
of
the
bike.
The
stacked
six-speed
gearbox
considerably
shortens
the
engine
and
is
the
first
from
Triumph
to
feature
a
truly
close
ratio
set-up
for
all
six
speeds,
maximizing
the
engine's
power
and
torque
perfectly.
Bore
and
stroke
is
74.0
mm
x
52.3
mm
and
peak
power
of
123
bHP
is
delivered
at
12,500
rpm,
with
78
lbs.
ft.
torque
at
11,750
rpm.
A
great
deal
of
work
went
into
refining
the
Daytona
675's
new
engine
without
removing
any
of
the
triple's
innate
character
and
while
it
may
perform
like
a
racing
thoroughbred
there's
typical
Triumph
toughness
engineered
into
every
part
–
this
motor's
meant
to
be
used,
and
used
hard
again
and
again.
The
Daytona
675's
Keihin
closed-loop
fuel-injection
system
uses
a
trio
of
44
mm
throttle
bodies
and
three
12-point
multi-spray
injectors.
Air
is
drawn
from
a
port
between
the
headlights
and
passes
directly
through
the
headstock
to
the
airbox.
An
electronically
controlled
flap
in
the
front
of
the
airbox
optimizes
both
acoustics
and
performance
at
low,
mid
and
high
rpm
ranges.
The
free-flowing
exhaust
features
an
underseat
exhaust
and
also
utilizes
a
secondary
valve
to
boost
torque
low
down.
The
engine
meets
stringent
Euro-3
emission
regulations.
Designed
around
the
Daytona
675's
engine
the
spars
of
the
fabricated,
open-back,
aluminum
cast
frame
wrap
over
the
top
of
the
motor,
accentuating
further
the
benefits
of
the
narrow
three-cylinder
design.
Rake
is
set
at
23.5°,
trail
at
86.8
mm
trail
with
a
wheelbase
of
54.8
in.
The
Kayaba
41
mm
upside
down
forks
are
fully
adjustable
for
spring
preload
and
rebound
and
compression
damping,
as
is
the
Kayaba
piggyback
reservoir
rear
shock.
The
aluminum
swingarm
itself
is
a
twopiece
casting
and
measures
574
mm
from
rear
wheel
spindle
to
pivot
point,
greatly
improving
suspension
and
rear
wheel
control.
Dry
weight
is
363
lbs.
The
front
brakes
use
a
radial
master
cylinder
as
well
as
twin
radial
four-piston
calipers
and
the
fully
floating
308
mm
front
discs
are
matched
by
a
220
mm
rear.
The
new
wheels
are
a
lightweight
five-spoke
design
and
wear
super-sticky
Pirelli
Dragon
Super
Corsa
Pro
tires.
Front
tire
size
is
120/70
ZR17
while
the
rear
is
180/55
ZR17.
The
Daytona
675's
digital
instrument
console
has
the
usual
trip
functions
as
well
as
displaying
average
fuel
economy.
Also
featured
is
a
99-lap
memory
timer
–
useful
for
comparing
successive
laps
on
a
track
as
well
as
average
and
maximum
speed
for
each
lap.
Gear
position
and
programmable
gear
change
shift
light
indicators
are
also
included.
Stylish
twin
projector
beam
front
headlights
(one
for
high
and
one
for
low
beam)
give
an
excellent
spread
of
light
and
are
matched
with
a
lightweight
LED
(Light
Emitting
Diode)
rear
light
unit.
Color
options
for
the
Daytona
675
are
Scorched
Yellow,
Tornado
Red
and
Graphite
Grey.
A
full
range
of
accessories
will
be
available
for
the
675
Daytona,
including
carbon
fiber
front
fender,
infills,
heel
guards
and
exhaust
cover.
A
non-restrictive
Triumph
exhaust
muffler
will
be
available
(for
off
road
use
only)
and
racing
specialists
Arrow
Exhausts
are
producing
a
full
titanium
system
that
saves
13.2
lbs.
in
weight
and
adds
5
bHP,
again
for
circuit
use
only.
Also,
while
the
Daytona
675
is
very
much
a
premium
product
with
top
quality
components,
exceptional
attention
to
detail
and
high
quality
finish,
its
final
retail
price
has
been
deliberately
pegged
at
an
affordable
level.
With
the
Daytona
675
Triumph
aimed
to
create
an
exciting
bike
that
owners
will
never
tire
of
owning
and,
above
all
else,
riding.
It
sits
within
a
class
of
one,
delivering
an
incredible
performance
with
its
exciting,
powerful
engine
and
intuitive,
razor-sharp
chassis.
It
also
looks
and
sounds
like
nothing
else.
All
quite
deliberate
and
driven
by
that
one
solitary
word;
'incomparable'.
Very
few
motorcycles
can
be
seen
as
mold-breaking
but
the
Daytona
675
is
definitely
one
of
them. |
