2022 Triumph Street Scrambler

CarHunch analysed 139 real MOT records for the 2022 Triumph Street Scrambler. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2022 Triumph Street Scrambler has a first-time pass rate of 82.4%, which sits above the UK average of 80%, and dangerous defects are rare at just 4.3% of vehicles—so reliability is solid for a bike in this age bracket. The extremely low failure rate of 0.09 per vehicle and modest advisory count of 0.2 suggest owners aren't hitting significant mechanical problems early on.

At a median mileage of 3,638 miles, these bikes are still relatively low-mileage, which explains the clean MOT picture. If you're buying one, focus your pre-purchase check on the electrical system and fuel delivery components—the top advisory areas on this model—rather than fearing major structural issues.

What to check before buying a 2022 Triumph Street Scrambler

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
