Bye Bye Bear Hello XC!
« on: October 09, 2026, 06:50:45 PM »
The Royal Enfield Bear is a sweet little bike but I longed for a bit more punch.

Enter, 2019 Triumph 1200XC Scrambler! Note the low aftermarket exhaust, love that.

Punch indeed and sweet handling even with the 21” hoop up front and a 17” rear  :bike-037:

All you need to do now is throw the shinko 705's in the trash and put some rubber worthy of that bike on it and ride. Limiting factor will be 21" but Anakee 3's come in 90/90-21 and are still fairly inexpensive, last decent and handle well. They will also handle everything the 705 will off road and handle 1000x better on road verses the 705.
