2021 Scrambler 1200 XE Triumph Classic Motorcycle – Features and Price
Thrilling Performance
The 2021 Scrambler 1200 XE Triumph Classics Motorcycle is powered by Triumph’s newest iteration of the 1200cc high-power British twin. The engine change reduces emissions and meets or exceeds Euro-5 criteria. The result is excellent torque from low down right through the rev range, thanks to the brand new standard inertia crank and a more excellent compression cylinder head, as well as a dedicated Scrambler tune that was specifically developed to give the perfect balance of power and torque delivery for both road and off-road riding.
At only 4,500rpm, greater torque reaches 110Nm, while the highest power of 90PS comes at 7,250rpm. The dual high-level exhaust system, modified for Euro-5 compliance with increased heat distribution, provides the characteristic Scrambler sound created by the powerful 1200cc 8-valve parallel twin engine.
Category-Dominating Specification & Capability
The 2021 Scrambler 1200 XE Triumph Classics Motorcycle has all of the category-leading specifications that give the bike its distinctive cross-over Classic and Adventure capabilities.
With 250 mm of front and rear wheel travel, the class-leading long travel suspension offers tremendous off-road ground clearance and an enjoyable road riding experience. The new Ohlins dual spring rear shocks and the high-spec upside-down Showa front forks are entirely adjustable for compression, preload, and rebound damping, allowing for outstanding comfort and handling on various conditions, from city streets to rugged off-road tracks.
The category-leading Brembo M50, radial monobloc calipers including dual 320 mm floating discs in the front and the Brembo caliper featuring a solo disc on the rear, provide superior stopping power. The ABS that comes standard is responsible for the highest level of braking performance.
High-spec wire-spoked wheels with new aluminum rims and a side-laced design come standard on the Scrambler 1200, enabling tubeless tires to be used. Metzeler Tourance tires are the usual fit; however, Pirelli Scorpion Rally tires are recommended as the best choice for more intense off-road usage.
The Scrambler 1200’s greater off-road ground clearance and commanding riding posture are aided by the 21 inches of the front wheel, providing excellent vision on and off the road. The Triumph Scrambler 1200 has a dominating attitude thanks to its wide adjustable handlebar position and adjustable folding foot controls on the 2021 Scrambler 1200 XE Triumph Classic Motorcycle.
Class-Leading Advanced Technology
The new 2021 Scrambler 1200 XE Triumph Classic Motorcycle is loaded with cutting-edge technology and rider assistance, and it sets the bar. The motorcycle has a full-color TFT instrument with two attractive design themes and three display arrangement choices, allowing the rider to customize the amount of information shown according to their preferences. Moreover, the rider’s name may also be added to the TFT start-up routine. An all-new multi-functional TFT display is activated by a 5-way joystick and additional controls on the new handlebar, all of which are lighted for more upfront navigation in the dark. The new TFTs are readable in all lighting circumstances owing to the low and high contrast displays, and the changeable screen angle fits according to the rider’s height thanks to the ability to change it.
The accessory-fit Triumph connection system is also pre-enabled on the new 2021 Scrambler 1200 XE Triumph Classic Motorcycle. Through easy handlebar controls and an all-new TFT interface, the rider can easily access phone calls, utilize turn-by-turn navigation, play music, and manage a Go-Pro.
The six riding modes – Road, Sport, Off-Road, Rain, and Off-Road Pro comes standard in the 2021 Scrambler 1200 XE Triumph Classics Motorcycle and Rider-Configurable – are enabled with the help of Triumph’s newest generation ride-by-wire system, which gives responsive and accurate throttle control at all times.
The 2021 Scrambler 1200 XE Triumph Classic Motorcycle also has optimised-cornering ABS and optimized-cornering traction control that alter the degree of involvement to preserve the best ride possible lean angle. The Inertial Measurement Unit controls these characteristics, measuring the bike’s roll, pitch, yaw, and acceleration rates to determine the slight bend and adjust braking and traction control appropriately, assuring enhanced rider stability.
The Scrambler 1200 has LED lights on the front and back, as well as LED indicators, for decreased energy use, higher durability, and enhanced visibility (market specific). LED daytime running lights are combined into the headlamp, providing improved visibility and a unique front-end appearance (market specific).
Torque-assist clutch, cruise control, keyless ignition, an under-seat USB charging socket, and internal wiring are ready to plug in the heated grips, which have three modes and are accessed through an intuitive button built into the left grip, are all standard on both of the 2021 Scrambler 1200 models.
Modern Custom Style including Category-Leading Finish and Detailing
These motorcycles provide all the trademarks of an authentic scrambler by combining Triumph’s original Scrambler DNA with superbly made contemporary bespoke flair. The new 2021 Scrambler 1200 XC and 2021 Scrambler 1200 XE Triumph Classic Motorcycle offer natural scrambler-defining flair, from the classic shape with its high-level dual exhaust to the dominating height and elegance.
The engine has the identical machined fins and black engine covers as every other Bonneville, as well as the traditional maker’s-mark triangle Triumph engine logo. The smooth contoured 16-liter fuel tank, with brushed aluminum Monza fuel cap and brushed steel strap, is a category-leading degree of finish and artistry. The custom-style bench seat, complete with embroidered ribbing and the Triumph logo, completes the distinctive appearance while providing the best riding posture and comfort for any journey.
The Scrambler 1200 has minimal aluminum mudguards, a sculpted side panel with a brushed aluminum Scrambler 1200 emblem, an aluminum bash plate, and wide-set handlebars to complete the recognizable scrambler design. Hand guards, a Brembo MCS lever, gold forks, and a handmade aluminum long travel swingarm with a high standard shot blasted and anodized finish are all included on the Scrambler 1200 XE.
