I don't know if you'd call it scrambler, rat, flat-tracker...etc. I just beat the bejeesus out of it on the back-roads & trails, where I really should not be.

Very nice bikes ! I'd love to build one like that , I got as far as fitting some XT600 forks once but couldnt get around the problem of the chain rubbing on the swinging arm when longer shocks were fitted ! If I could get my hands on a set of high-level pipes like those I'd try again though...
