Chris’ Triumph Street Scrambler “Rusty”

When Chris Dodd walked into the Triumph dealership and saw this 2018 Triumph Street Scrambler, which was modified by the service department with a faux patina fuel tank, he fell in love with the bike and bought it. Dodd says, “When I got it home the first thing I did was start taking ‘the modern’ off to make the bike a bit more retro and a bit more classic.” He ordered “a myriad of Triumph catalog parts,” tinted the headlight in amber, installed a set of knobby tires and a Vance & Hines high pipe, and kept modifying until he had created the bike you see here, “Rusty.”

One of my fave Street Scram builds, always been a fan of rustic, old school style, this nails it for a modern retro! Glad it’s made it in, rightly so. 🀘🏼
