That will definitely be true with the Scrambler.

It's a fun bike and it looks cool but that's about it. It doesn't do anything well.

I thought about having one for running around town but even then it would get boring after a bit.

If you can find a used on at a price that makes it attractive, go for it. No way I'd take the new bike depreciation on one though.

No way would I get one new. Definitely pick up a used one with a great price.

This would be an around town and maybe go to some of the more adventurous DS areas I am afraid to take the big ole GS.

Really want to test ride one, but our local triumph dealership doesn't have one.
