Triumph Scrambler 1200 finally makes its way to the Indian market. It will be available in India through the CBU market, priced at Rs 10.73 Lakhs.
Triumph has launched the Scrambler 1200 in India, as a bigger capacity alternative to the 900cc Scrambler. We, in India, get the base XC variant, and not the top-spec XE variant. The XC variant is more off-road focused with smaller ground clearance.
Triumph Scrambler 1200 XC is priced at Rs 10.73 Lakhs (ex-showroom), costlier than the other Scrambler by Rs 2.2 Lakhs. The bike has been unveiled in India, and thankfully, it does not miss out anything from the global-spec version.
Triumph Scrambler 1200 XC gets Thruxton’s 1200cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin cylinder engine. The motor is tuned to produce 90 BHP at 7400 RPM and 110 Nm at 3950 RPM, mated to a 6-speed gearbox.

For suspension purposes, the Triumph Scrambler 1200 XC uses Showa 45mm fully adjustable USD Forks at the front and fully adjustable Ohlins Twin Shock absorbers at the back. The front and rear suspension travel stand at 200mm, and it gets a piggyback reservoir.
Braking is handled by twin 320mm Brembo disc brakes at the front and a single 255mm disc at the back. Dual-channel switchable ABS is also equipped onboard.
For a better riding experience, it gets cornering dual-ABS, Traction Control, Five riding modes (Rain, Road, Sport, Off-Road and Custom) and an adjustable suspension setup.

Scrambler 1200 goes against the likes of BMW R nineT, Ducati Scrambler 1200 Desert Sled and Indian FTR1200. All of these motorcycles are roadsters, with some off-road capabilities.
