Triumph Scrambler 1200 X 2024

Triumph Scrambler 1200 X 2024

Triumph launches an entry-level 1200 Scrambler for everyone! More accessible in terms of price and dimensions, the 1200 X presents itself as the logical base model of the 1200 series, which is slightly more respectful of the XE variant than the retired XC. If a great engine, elegant looks and high-quality electronics are important to you and if you can overlook the similarities with other (cheaper) Triumph models, the 1200 X offers a well-rounded package.

superb engine

beautiful appearance

full electronics package

large scrambler (also) for small people

pleasingly low fuel consumption and emissions

sound as bassy as ever

BMW R 12 nineT 2024

BMW R 12 nineT 2024

BMW has not only given the nineT model series an updated name and a polished design, but also a large chunk of versatility. It remains the characterful naked bike with a vibrant boxer engine, but can also offer significantly more riding pleasure thanks to the new ergonomics, adjustable suspension, better brakes and quickshifter for the first time. Looking good, relaxed cruising or pops through the twisties - the BMW R 12 nineT can do it all!

Great old-school boxer with now EU5+ homologation

First modern quickshifter for this engine

Top brakes

Very sensitive, fully adjustable chassis

Versatile ergonomics

Lots of cool accessory options Agile riding performance

Quickshifter very jerky when shifting up in some situations

Clutch requires a lot of manual force

Considerable price, especially with accessories
