a unique sound. With a capacity of 1170 cc, it delivers an output of 81 kW (110 hp) at 7,750 rpm, develops a maximum torque of 116 Nm at 6,000 rpm while, along with the new engine mapping and a fuel system including carbon canister, meets the requirements of the EU4 pollutant class.
A Scrambler with character With both the new Scrambler and the the R nineT, BMW Motorrad has responded to the motorcycle fans, allowing them to mod- ify their bike creatively according to their own personal taste. The spectrum of poten- tial alterations ranges from original BMW Motorrad accessories to a wide selection of accessory parts produced by customizers to create a unique motorcycle. The high exhaust with two silencers meets the
requirements of a classic Scrambler look and is fitted close to the body of the bike, offering a slim appearance. Producing a full boxer sound, it also adheres to the new noise emission regulations, and a large-size catalytic converter ensures even more effec- tive exhaust gas cleaning.
Traditional suspension Like the R nineT Roadster, the frame con- cept is a key aspect in terms of the Scram- bler's extensive customization capacity. The specially developed steel tubular space frame integrates the boxer engine as a load- bearing element and consists of a front sec- tion with integrated steering head and a rear section with swinging arm mount. The passenger frame can be removed, thereby allowing the R nineT Scrambler to
be used either by two riders or by the rider alone. In line with the bike’s active riding character, the suspension geometry of the R nineT Scrambler is mainly geared towards handling and a neutral cornering response, making it a lot of fun on winding country roads. In good Scrambler style, the front sus-
pension uses a telescopic fork with rubber gaiters and a spring travel of 125 millime- ters. Rear wheel suspension is handled by a Paralever single-sided swing arm used in other boxer models. Suspension and damp- ing are carried out via a central spring strut with a spring travel of 140 millimeters. The Scrambler is fitted with light alloy cast wheels with a large 19-inch front wheel and with tire sizes of 120/70-19 at the front and 170/60-17 at the rear.
