Welcome to the show! I think you'll enjoy it. Lots of great advice from a lot of knowledgeable people, and a lot of opinions from those like me who (ahem...) don't know so much!

Welcome to the asylum.....you'll love it. Congrats on the scrambler. Yea, the red/silver combo looks more retro to me. Should give you a really wide grin, but watch out for the mud you're gonna sling around.

Yes, Welcome. You will enjoy your Scrambler. I bought my '06 (Blue & White) as a leftover last November. I've been able to log about 600 miles and just completed the first service. Despite the cold and crappy weather it's a fun ride. It could use a wash but it somehow looks right as is.
Ride Safe!

Welcome aboard! Scrambler was a great choice. Bought mine in the fall, so I only have 1500 miles so far. So far I'm very pleased. I had a tough time deciding between the red and the blue. Went with the blue, but still have a place in my heart for the red.

Ha !! I DO have a Steve McQueen poster in the garage !!! I'll try and get some decent photos up ASAP.
The "we" is Trish and I. She's the love of my life and a great pillion. We toured Newfoundland and Labrador last summer on the Ducati and she's keen on any crazy adventure I dream up. NWT, Yukon and Alaska ........... maybe this summer, we're trying to get 3 weeks off work together to get that done.
This forum is a great source of information as I figure out how to navigate. (Computers are not my strong point, without Trish's knowledge I'd be dead in the water.)
