    Hi all! Long time lurker and finally pulled the trigger on a '17 Street Scrambler. Will be using her to commute to work and some off road fun/camping. Already have my list of mods I'll be doing in the coming months! Cant wait to tinker around on this bike...so many things you can do.

    On a side note the previous owner did not have the luggage rack. I've checked ebay and the sorts and have not been able to find one. Trying to avoid the costly dealer. Anyone out there have one they're willing to part with??

    Welcome to the family. Nice steed you have there. As for the rack just keep trying it will turn up. The Triumph racks are top quality and worth the money I think aswel.
    Ride Safe & Enjoy
    Joe.

    Welcome from another new Street Scrambler owner.

    That is, the new owner of a new Street Scrambler. :)


    Who is trying to understand why the pillion seat will support an adult human, but the rack that replaces it can carry only 3 kg/6.6 pounds. :mad: I think I'll buy another pillion seat, remove the cover and the foam, then bolt a rack to the seat base. :grinning:

    Welcome
    Only a suggestion, I fitted a "Metal Mule" rack to my street twin it is well made and quite a bit cheaper, stronger and larger than Triumph's overpriced accessory! I'm not sure about fitting a Street Scrambler, Have a look on line
