Conclusion - what sticks
The announced comparison to the T100 and the Street Twin is almost imperative here. The T100 is even more classic in terms of appearance and the Street Twin is not only cheaper, but visually also a bit more modern, which is mainly due to the normal rims. The Scrambler with its spoke wheels, bellows and the Scrambler exhaust is visually a bit more "riotous". It is a bit more stable or less manoeuvrable due to the 19" front wheel, but it gives the driver more control due to the wider handlebars.So if you like it classic, you can use the T100, if you are looking for a stylish naked bike that fits into today's world, take the Street Twin and if you want to look a little on the poop, you can use the Scrambler. All three machines have their justification and deliver a lot of driving fun due to the great 900 twin - really!
