THE ORIGINAL SCRAMBLERS
The new Scrambler 1200 has an unparalleled blood line dating back more than half a century. Triumphs, already the leading bikes of the 1960s, were prepped for the dirt, stripped down, and fitted with improved suspensions and straight-through, twin high-pipes. Triumph created the template for what makes a scrambler truly great. These were the original desert sleds.
These motorcycles inspired the world’s first production scramblers, the Bonneville T120TT, T120C, and the TR6C – motorcycles Steve McQueen took to the desert, Bud Ekins raced and won in the dirt, and competed in the most challenging desert race of their time, the Baja 1000. They were the machines that created legends.
In 2006, Triumph once again inspired the genesis of a new category with the launch of the very first‘modern-era’ scrambler. The Bonneville Scrambler triggered the explosion of today’s scramblers whileinspiring a new global fan base, from urban riders to movie stars, all in love with the iconic Triumph Scrambler style and silhouette.

THE NEW BENCHMARK
Two all-new models comprise the Triumph Scrambler 1200 lineup: the Scrambler 1200 XC, designed and built to assuredly tackle any road; and the range-topping Scrambler 1200 XE, which raises its off-road capability and scrambling credentials to the very top of the motorcycling world.
THRILLING PERFORMANCE
At the heart of each new Scrambler is the latest generation, high power 1,200 cc Bonneville engine featuring a dedicated ‘Scrambler tune’ helping deliver readily-accessible, category-leading torque. The charismatic 270° firing interval ensures a smooth, linear power delivery conducted by a slick six-speed gearbox. Evolved specifically for the Scrambler, the 1200 engine provides 89 Hp @ 7,400 rpm, 12.5% more power than the Bonneville T120 and an incredible 38% more than the 2019 Street Scrambler.
Additionally, the Scrambler 1200 power plant is tuned to deliver ‘high torque’ on- and off-road low down and across the mid-range, with peak torque of 81 Ft-lb available at a low 3,950 rpm. The Scrambler1200’s engine leap-frogs the Street Scrambler’s peak torque figure by a substantial 37.5%.
A beautifully crafted, high-mounted twin exhaust system with stainless steel headers and brushed stainless steel silencers unleashes a deep, punchy, Scrambler sound. Mirroring the newest-generation Bonnevilles, the Scrambler 1200 engine delivers class-leading capability with ride-by-wire technology and a liquid cooling system for enhanced performance and cleaner, more fuel-efficient riding. Both Scrambler 1200 models feature a high first major service interval of 10,000 mi/16,000 km.

CATEGORY-DOMINATING CAPABILITY

- An advanced Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), developed in partnership with Continental, supports the optimum function of the Optimized Cornering ABS and Traction Control on the Scrambler 1200 XE.

- Keyless ignition

CLASS-LEADING SPECIFICATION & EQUIPMENT
The new Scrambler 1200s have been developed to deliver first-in-class, dual purpose ‘classic and adventure’ capability. Triumph created a new, dedicated Scrambler chassis tailor-made for focused off- road capability and featuring comfortable rider ergonomics.

With an inspiration from the early 70’s motocross twin spring design, this is a genuine innovation that delivers a new level of long-travel suspension capability,” said Emil Aberg,ÖHLINS Key Account Manager. “My testing team were amazed with the performance of the new 1200 Scramblers and considered them to be actually more capable off-road than many of the adventure bikesthey had tested.’’
Both Scramblers also feature a new, long-travel aluminum swingarm, which is longer on the XE version, making the new XC and XE truly capable in all riding conditions.
