Nevertheless, it’s a softer, far less powerful engine that won’t catch out even the most eager wrists. And the restrictor can be removed once you’ve passed your test. But the strange thing here is that the current 803cc Scrambler can already be restricted for A2 compliance. Derived from the 803cc Scrambler motor, the new 399cc air-cooled, V-twin now pumps out 41bhp, making it A2-compliant. And it does that job well it’s an easy- going, exceptionally fashionable and fun little bike – even if you do have to own a skateboard to ride one. The Scrambler Sixty2 is purely an entry-level machine, specifically suited to younger riders. If you’re downsizing from a sportsbike or bigger capacity bike and want something to whizz around the city and the odd country lane on then opt for the bigger Scrambler with its 75bhp. It feels and looks like its older brother, except with half the engine size, power and probably half the fun. Confusing marketing hype aside for a moment, the Sixty2 signals a clear effort to expand the Scrambler range, and rightly so.

The marketing hype was the same when the original Scrambler was launched in 2014, except it was surfboards strapped to the bikes instead of skateboards.
