Triumph: New Scrambler 1200 XE and X for 2024

The new 1200 X offers the features of this bike category appreciated by scrambler fans, such as the upright riding position and high torque, and combines them with a wide range of equipment and state-of-the-art technology. The seat height is 820 mm and can be reduced to 795 mm with the optionally available low seat. At a reduced price, it offers extensive features and exceptional functionality. Long maintenance intervals of 16,000 km (or once a year) also ensure low operating costs.

 

Also new for 2024 is the further developed Scrambler 1200 XE. It features updates such as the latest generation Brembo Stylema® calipers, a new chassis with improved adjustments, new styling details and better touring capability.

Steve Sargent, Chief Product Officer: "Built for both on-road and off-road adventures, the new Scrambler 1200 XE sets new standards in performance, handling and modern classic style. The Scrambler 1200 X has been designed according to the wishes of our customers, who wanted a lower seat height, better handling and a lower price than its predecessor, the Scrambler 1200 XC."

These new features distinguish the new Scrambler 1200 X:

• New Marzocchi™ suspension with 45mm USD fork and struts with piggyback reservoirs and adjustable preload, 170mm front and rear travel, optimized for road use
• More advanced rider technology to make the Scrambler X even more agile and safer on the road, including a new, optimized cornering ABS as well as switchable, optimized cornering traction control
• Multifunction instruments with integrated TFT display
• Five riding modes, including off-road
• Full LED lighting, including the signature headlight with daytime running lights, a new, compact rear light and the new, slim and modern turn signals
• USB charging function
• Accessory-activated connectivity, arrow navigation, Bluetooth phone and music operation

• Brembo Stylema® radial monobloc calipers of the latest generation with 320 mm twin floating discs and single-piston Nissin calipers on the rear axle
• Optimized MarzocchiTM 45mm USD fork and "twin-spring" struts with piggyback reservoirs
• New, fully adjustable MarzocchiTM suspension with long 250 mm travel front and rear
• Revised intake and exhaust manifolds that deliver wider torque in the upper rpm range
• New styling details, including sleek and stylish LED turn signals, as well as a new compact LED taillight
• Improved touring capability with an optional high windscreen and an optional robust luggage system with panniers

Impressive performance
 
Both models are equipped with the same 1200cc Bonneville twin engine and high-torque scrambler mapping. A new 50mm throttle body and revised exhaust manifold provide improved flow and therefore a wider distribution of torque in the upper rpm range, from 5,000 rpm to the red zone. In addition, the heat radiation of the raised exhaust to the right driver's leg has been significantly reduced.

 
The 2024 models have been fine-tuned to ensure the perfect balance of power delivery for on-road and off-road use. The peak power now comes a little earlier in the rev range, the 90 hp are already released at 7,000 rpm and the maximum torque of 110 Nm is also available earlier, namely at 4,250 rpm.
The distinctive, high-lying dual exhaust system is completed by brushed stainless steel mufflers that produce the characteristic, deep scrambler sound.
