Tridays Rumbler custom
The Triumph Scrambler is already a modern day classic, but the Rumbler custom puts an Austrian spin on the capable twinEvery year the Triumph Tridays festival takes over the small Austrian town of Neukirchen, and is one of the biggest Triumph gatherings in Europe.
A tasty little offshoot of the event is organiser Uli Brée's annual unveiling of a one-off custom Triumph, and in 2012 the vehicle is Rumbler, a customised Triumph Scrambler.
Built by two experienced European tuners, Jochen Schmitz-Linkweiler of LSL, and Jens vom Brauck of JvB-Moto, the Tridays Rumbler was designed as a practical machine, not just a showpiece.
Fitted with Ohlins suspension tweaked to provide a little more ground clearance and chunky Pirelli tyres, the Triumph parallel twin was created to compete in the Tridays Rumble, which is a competitive 400 metre sprint race at the festival that takes place on grass and dirt.
Other mechanical modifications over the regular Triumph Scrambler include custom upside-down triple clamps that alter the steering angle slightly, an arrow exhaust system, and a beefed up braking package from Magura Supermoto, comprising 4-pot calipers and a radial master cylinder.
The stock handlebars have been replaced with flat a Roadster item, and there's a number of cosmetic alterations that add the icing on the cake.
New headlight, side panels, a dual flat seat and compact front finder are all from JvB-Moto parts and the custom brown tank is a nice touch too.
