Street Scrambler

2017 Triumph Street Scrambler Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Triumph's naked motorcycle lineup, the 2017 Triumph Street Scrambler pairs a 900 cc (54.9 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 55 HP (40.1 kW) at 5,900 rpm while maximum torque reaches 80 Nm (59 lb-ft) at 3,230 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 61.1 HP per liter and a 2,670 rpm working window between peak torque (3,230 rpm) and peak power (5,900 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.

On the scales, the Street Scrambler measures 206 kg (454 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.27 HP/kg (3.75 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,446 mm (56.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 12.11-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.8 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 319 km (198 miles) between fill-ups.
