Scrambler Scrambler 1200 Mud On Radiator.

Beats me why it’s the customer who has to sort out a rather obvious issue on a bike sold as a ‘real deal’ rugged, off road, dusty, muddy, trail blazing piece of machinery...

 

Triumph should sell a "Steve McQueen ISDT Front Mudguard".

 

Yes and they should make the bike again as well ... just look at the size of that mudguard ...very functional I’d say and not even having to protect a rather vulnerable radiator!

 

Oh yes, ... and what a great photo of a real inspirational motorcycling enthusiast ... top marks from me !

 

This is a real problem with the 1200 XE.
Anyone identify an aftermarket commercial fix yet? Mine also has the high fender. Triumph needs to resolve this issue.
Thanks- Dave

 

I had this problem on my Street Scrambler which had the high level mudguard fitted on purchase which was quickly replaced with the standard item in addition to the fender extender which I extended further with a piece of sheet plastic. It doesn't do any serious off roading but the front of the bike was getting covered in salt laden Winter road crap which probably does more damage than "clean" mud.

 

Fitted one a bit longer than this one and it works great. Good solid mounting the way the low front guard is put together.

 

Nice job Haro, I see by the red “persuader” that your tool box is well equipped.

 

If I'd have been designing the 1200 Scrambler with more off road "intent" as triumph claim I'd have fitted 2 small side mounted rads, like most other dirt bikes including my Husaberg, instead of one large rad mounted centrally directly in the line of fire from the front wheel. Just sayin'.
