A Triumph Scrambler 900 for Tony Hawk

Most of the bikes we show here don’t reflect the truth of mainstream motorcycle customizing. They’re bikes to aspire to, or be inspired by.

The reality is that most people who customize their bikes do it in a piecemeal fashion: changing a part here and there, doing a little of the work themselves and contracting out the trickier stuff, and poring over catalogs and websites to find the elusive parts that will provide a useful performance kick or a different look.

This is something that Roland Sands understands very well, and one of the reasons he’s become so successful.

The Triumph Scrambler 900 we’re looking at here exemplifies this approach perfectly. RSD built it for the Tony Hawk Foundation, and it was sold for $32,500. It went under the hammer at a charity auction to raise money to build free public skateparks in low-income areas.

Sands chose a 2011 model Scrambler 900 as the base, and upgraded the dynamics and rider experience using bolt-on parts that won’t damage reliability.

The engine internals have been left unmodified, but a performance boost comes from an Arrow 2-into-1 stainless steel exhaust—plus K&N filtration and an air injection removal kit from British Customs. (This reduces the operating temperature of the engine and also eliminates popping during deceleration, especially with aftermarket pipes).

Braking has been improved with an oversized floating front rotor, and the suspension has been worked over by Progressive: the front forks have been re-sprung and re-valved, and the rear shocks replaced with Progressive’s 970 series reservoir shocks. Tires are Dunlop Trailmax TR91s.

The original 7/8″ handlebars are gone, replaced with Renthal Fatbars attached to RSD risers. Adjustable Pazzo brake and clutch levers are matched to RSD ‘Black Ops’ tracker grips.

The Scrambler 900 seat has been replaced by a recovered Triumph Thruxton item, and sleek new turn signals and brake lights have also been installed. Neat visual touches are the cast aluminum ribbed stator cover from The Speed Merchant and the new aluminum battery box. The rear fender has been cut down and all the bodywork, including the headlight bucket, has been repainted in a satin titanium color.

I know several proud owners of Hinckley Triumphs, and this is the kind of subtle but effective custom job that inspires them.

It’s not radical and it doesn’t need to be expensive, but it’s bikes like this that keep the wheels turning in the custom business.

2012 Triumph Scrambler Tony Hawk Special

We just finished up the Tony Hawk Triumph Scrambler for the LA Stand up for Skateparks event on Sunday. Check the website to place a bid on the bike or to get tickets to attend the event. Black Keys are playing, great food and a huge half pipe, sounds like a good Sunday to us.

Tony Hawk and the team at RSD have joined forces once again, to build a unique custom two wheeled machine for Stand Up for Skateparks. Triumph provided a modern day version of their legendary 2011 Scrambler 900 for the build. We have re-worked this machine to feature a number of upgrades to boost the performance and give the machine a unique aesthetic, worthy of the Hawk brand.

Dubya USA then wrapped in Dunlop Trailmax TR91 tires. Stopping power has been increased with the addition of an oversized floating front brake rotor. Rear shocks have been replaced with custom-built Progressive Suspension 970 series reservoir shocks, giving a little extra ground clearance and improved adjustable dampening. The front forks have also been re-sprung and re-valved by Progressive, for an improved ride.

The Speed Merchant supplied a cast aluminum ribbed stator cover and front sprocket guard. Chain has been replaced with a gold series D.I.D. O-ring version, coupled with a hard anodized aluminum Renthal rear and British Customs solid steel front sprockets.

Arrow 2-into-1 stainless steel exhaust, aluminum skid plate and floating rotor were supplied by Triumph Motorcycles America. British Customs supplied a K&N air filter kit, aluminum battery box, air injection plugs, and rectifier relocator.

The rear fender has been trimmed and shaved by RSD and stock turn signals and brake lights have been dumped for sleeker units. We used our own RSD side mount license plate bracket and LED tail light then fabricated a rear grab bar that doubles as a mount for the rear turn signals. The front turn signal mount is another hand crafted unit custom made by RSD just for this project.

We used an OEM Triumph Thruxton Seat and recovered it with RSD spec leather, featuring a hand-tooled hawk/triumph logo on the rear and RSD logo badges stitched into each side.

All bodywork, including the headlight bucket, have been painted by Airtrix with a two tone, satin titanium color combination and red pin-striping. The custom paint job features a Hawk logo on each side of the gas tank and flavorful Roland Sands Design lettering on the fenders. The tank is topped off with an RSD gas cap for good measure.

The stock 7/8″ handlebars were replaced with oversized Renthal Fatbars and are attached with modified RSD risers. Adjustable-reach billet Pazzo brake and clutch levers allow on-the-fly adjustment. One-off Black Ops RSD tracker grips, wrapped in Renthal rubber, connect the rider to the machine with style and performance in mind.

We started from the bottom and worked our way up, beginning with custom matched powder coated rims, hubs and spokes by

46 MPG City / 60 MPG Highway

Air-cooled, DOHC, parallel-twin, 270º firing interval

A sense of adventure from back in the day. A modern interpretation of a timeless classic, the Scrambler Tony Hawk Special demands attention wherever it goes. Triumph’s legendary 865cc air-cooled parallel-twin engine with modern fuel injection and plenty of torque. The distinctive sound from the 270 degree firing order and the twin stainless steel upswept pipes. Add classic styling details and it’s easy to understand why the Scrambler Tony Hawk Specials of the past were the stuff of Hollywood legends.

Triumph’s legendary air-cooled 865cc engine delivers plenty of midrange torque. 90% of peak torque is maintained from around 2,500rpm to redline, giving smooth power delivery.

Strong tubular steel cradle frame with supple front and rear suspension. Built tough to iron out the bumps. High wide handlebars and high set footpegs further aids control.

The Scrambler Tony Hawk Special features a fuel injection system compliant to Euro 3 legislation. True to the 60’s styling, the fuel injectors are cleverly concealed by throttle bodies designed to look like traditional carbs.

19 inch spoked front wheels and 17 inch spoked rear wheels with light knobbly tyres complete the authentic look.

High level twin chromed stainless steel exhaust pipes, retro styled silencers and evocative heat shields are key to the Scrambler Tony Hawk Special’s unique looks.

Спицованные колеса, широкий руль, солидный клиренс, задранные выхлопные трубы, — Triumph Scrambler наглядно демонстрирует, как должен выглядеть настоящий двухколесный, стильный внедорожник. Это – байк в стиле брутальных 60-х: грубоватая черненая сталь, немного хрома и никакого новомодного пластика, мотоцикл, спокойно ездящий хоть по асфальту, хоть по грунтовке, хоть по полю.

Особенности Scrambler

Мощный, достаточно тяжелый агрегат на удивление легко управляется. Движок интегрирован в силовой каркас, поэтому рама стала жестче, что ощутимо улучшило поведение мотоцикла на трассе. Посадка прямая, комфортная, центр тяжести высокий, подножки приподняты. В результате – полный контроль над дорожной обстановкой и никакой усталости на «дальняках». А благодаря широкому рулю на малых скоростях байк гораздо маневреннее многих собратьев по классу.

То есть «Скремблер» — это мотоцикл именно для тех, кто ценит комфорт и классику, проходимость, мощность и удобство управления. Нет 6-й передачи, нет рева движка на 14К оборотов, зато присутствуют надежность, уверенность и практичность. И внешняя узнаваемость.

Тормоза хорошо «схватывают» и дают четкую обратную связь. Немного смущает установка одинарных дисков, но это лучше, чем используемые на многих «дорожниках» классические барабаны. Панель аналоговая и разнообразием не блещет, из приборов на ней представлен только спидометр.

Модификации Триумф Скремблер

Модель начали выпускать в 2006г. В 2010г. мотоцикл получил обновленную топливную систему и стал соответствовать стандарту «Евро3». Также освежили цветовую гамму. Для «Скремблера» фирма выпускает отдельный набор аксессуаров, поэтому индивидуализировать внешний вид мотоцикла труда не составит. Кроме того, можно снабдить байк дополнительными опциями, например, решеткой для фары, тахометром, защитой картера и даже небольшим багажником.

Кастом Triumph Scrambler

За мотоциклами марки «Triumph» уже давным-давно гоняются крупнейшие коллекционеры со всего света. Модель «Triumph Scrambler» является не менее желанной добычей, чем нашумевший «Bonneville». Буквально 10 лет назад все говорили о закате эры каферейсеров, но вопреки всем домыслам настал настоящий «ренессанс «этих байков. Их силуэты пестрят во многих модных журналах, сотни фотосессий совершенно разных направлений не обходятся без включения в сюжет «железных коней» этого класса.

Данный кастом-байк представлен салоном «Ton-Up Garage». Капитальные изменения коснулись двигателя, в который была добавлена функция элиминации воздуха, а также выхлопной трубы. Была поставлена труба марки «Zard». Новый спидометр, фара и вилка. Вот в принципе и все. Перед вами реанимированный байк, который нисколько не потерял в цене из-за доработок известного мото-салона. Скорее наоборот.
