Did the first ride on a Scrambler today and i was absolutely positive surprised and stoked. I have ridden several bikes starting with MotoX, Supermoto, Yamaha R series, Ducati S4R, Honda VFR Twin, KTM.
I thought no it is time to relax, sit back and enjoy. That was what happened today with the Scrambler. It was like a timeless ride across some streets in the alps of Austria. Tires good, Suspension great, brakes way enough, engine nice and lively, gearbox not the most exact but ok. Love the bike and the laid back feel it gives me. :laugh:

Man, I love that helmet. Are you going to miss having a supermoto bike now that you have the Scrambler? I was on the fence about a supermoto before I decided to just pursue the Scrambler.

Congrats and enjoy. The scrambler reminds a little of a supermoto. Just the way the front end feels.

Riding through the alps of Austria sounds like a wonderful trip for your first ride on the Scrambler. Are you going to make any changes to the ike, or do you like it as is?

Cheers!

Too bad you don't have video of your trip, would have loved to see Austria from the sort of perspective you can get of it on a bike!

I dont think i will miss the Supermoto that much, for sure there will be some moments. It is a completely different feeling on the Scrambler. Riding SM you are alway forced to beat the road and do stupid things, because that thing is made for that. I could not control myself, i just have done stupid things all the time i was riding but was not able to enjoy it that much anymore.
On the Scrambler it just feels right, that is what i was searching for.
I have some picture in mind how my Scrambler should llok like, im pretty busy in summer with work so i will start to change things in winter. Beginning with the bar, exhaust, indicators, mirror, the standart things. In the end i will paint it in some other collor i have in mind, the classic seat, license plate holder and than mior things that will feel right for the bike when it is repainted. Im realy excited for what to come or how the Scrambler will look like next year.
The alps in Austria are just perfekt for riding any style of motorbike. There are so many streets, im sure you would love it. I dont have a GoPro or any other kind of Camera. So sorry, there will wont come any videos.
Ducati was right, im in the land of joy right now. Feels good in this community, thx!
