"I don’t think anyone that buys the new Triumph scrambler would be the least bit happy if they dropped their bike. I don’t expect to see many, if any, of them off-road."
I think that position holds true the further away you live from the urban/rural interface. Good chance if you're down-town San Francisco and see a Scrambler, it probably has never left pavement.
Out here in Utah, where gravel/forest roads/desert etc. are just minutes away these machines will see dirt.
I've posted this pic before of my buddies Scrambler at 9,100 feet approx. 10 miles up a dirt road. Another buddy that runs frequently with him has a Ducati Desert Sled edition that routinely gets flogged off the pavement.
