Tough enough for any terrain—plus top perform-
ance on the street.
Bridgestone's new 100 Trail-Scrambler combines
all the features experienced riders specify in a
sport cycle with traditional Bridgestone perform-
ance and dependability.
Here's why it is changing minds about what a
sport cycle should be:
New Frame, More Features
The Bridgestone 100 Trail-Scrambler is built on a
completely new tubular steel frame with a matched
heavy duty suspension system. It combines brute
strength with quick, sure handling like nothing
you've ever ridden. On or off the road, you have
the feel of complete control at all times.
And the 100 Trail doesn't stop there. It offers a
host of well thought out rider features to make the
trip more fun, too. For instance, check the hand-
filling soft rubber grips that lessen fatigue; the top
mounted control cable adjustments, the 45° fold-
ing footpegs and the oversized solo saddle for
all-day comfort.
Power? Plenty I
The 100 Trail-Scrambler features Bridgestone’s
proven 100cc rotary valve 2-stroke with oil in-
jection that turns out a full 11 h.p. at 7500 rpm.
Bridgestone's exclusive chromed bore cylinder
means less friction, longer life, too.
Another Plus . . .
Bridgestone's patented quick-change rear
sprocketing lets you switch from powerful trail
gearing to 65 mph road capability quickly and
easily.
