Here we cover scrambler motorcycles, the staple of the new-wave custom bike builder and modern classic manufacturers.
The Scrambler style traces its lineage back to the motorcycles of the same name that competed on dirt and mud trails in the ’50s and ’60s.
Scrambler bikes were eventually superseded by motocross bikes in the ’70s.
The scrambler has enjoyed a robust revival in recent years, fuelled in part by increasing fascination with retro and classic motorcycles. Modern manufacturers are tapping into this nostalgia, rolling out fresh models that tip their hats to the iconic bikes of days gone by.
These updated machines marry vintage aesthetics with today’s technology and performance metrics. Enhanced suspension, state-of-the-art braking systems and better engines create a ride that synthesises the best aspects of both past and present.
Big names such as Triumph, Ducati and BMW have introduced models that both echo the scrambler’s rich heritage and meet contemporary performance and reliability benchmarks.
The upshot is a reinvigorated scrambler landscape, attracting a fresh wave of enthusiasts drawn to this compelling fusion of history, style and functionality.
Here, you’ll find an array of content ranging from the unveiling of just-released models to stories of custom scrambler creations.
