Again our photographer drove the Triumph Scrambler 1200 as Erlkonig in front of the lens, but this time as a basic version. Before that, we had already caught an R variant of the Scrambler.

With a little luck, the finished production model could be presented at this year’s Intermot in Cologne.

The EICMA in Milan should also be ideal for the re-launch of the finished model.

Either way: a market launch in 2019 should definitely be possible. Unfortunately, nothing has been officially confirmed yet.

And here are the Erlkonig pictures of the R variant: Stylish from top to bottom, the driver and the vehicle. So we want to see a scrambler that sometimes takes off-road sections. With massive aluminum engine protection and plenty of spring travel.

Just in case: Triumph is experimenting with coarse stolls as well as street tires – and with weight optimization on the aluminum handguard.

Hopefully it stays that way: The appearance of the new Scrambler has a completely different dynamic than that of the leisurely Street Scrambler.

Triumph Street Scrambler – Give it a try with coziness: Compared to the new one, the 900 has a leisurely appearance. It should too, with 55 hp and a more touristy suspension equipment. Price from 10,700 euros.

Just like the BMW Scrambler (110 PS, 116 Nm, 13 150 euros), for the rough there is the Urban G / S. The BMW R nineT Scrambler.

My dear kit! Anyone who said the British had no more ideas with their two-cylinder engines is wrong. New Erlkonig photos show: The big Triumph Scrambler with 1200 engine is in the starting blocks. And it looks like it could even come in two flavors.

It’s worth doing the math: If you count the “Black versions” of the Bonneville T100 and T120 families as independent models, the entire Triumph twin series has no fewer than twelve versions. This does not even include the new 1200 scrambler, of which we can now show you a few more Erlkonig photos of two model variants. And yet one can assume that many have been waiting for these scramblers. First and foremost, all those who liked the classic look of the 900 Street Scrambler, but missed one thing above all, namely more liveliness, more cheerful pressure in all locations. The newcomer should – yes, must – bring it with her if she doesn’t want to swim against the robust and attractive competition from Ducati and BMW. It’s not enough just to cautiously buffer like your little sister, it has to bang.

Changes to the engine are unlikely

But don’t worry: anyone who knows the 1200 will have no doubt about it. A nominal 80 hp work in the high-torque version of the Bonnie, that would be enough. Where it is not top performance, but the full torque blow that is the pound with which the 1200 can proliferate. This manifests itself at 105 Newton meters at an impressive 3,100 rpm. With it, the British twin easily cooks the V2 of the 1100 Ducati Scrambler (88 Newton meters at 4,750 rpm). Just like the boxer competition from BMW, which, with its 116 Newton meters at 6,000 rpm, needs almost double the speed before it really gets down to business.

R variant: in proper style from top to bottom, the driver as well as the vehicle. So we want to see a scrambler that sometimes takes off-road sections. With massive aluminum engine protection and plenty of spring travel.

Seen in this way, extensive, torque-enhancing measures are not to be expected, the fat twin can stay as it is. What, on the other hand, seems to be urgently advised, is mobilization on the undercarriage to avoid the quiet glider Street scrambler to make a real entertainer. Triumph seems to want to bring the new Scrambler in two versions: the basic and the R version. And indeed, the so-called R variant could fulfill some fan requests: a light and expensive aluminum swingarm, a long Ohlins suspension strut, a massive upside-down fork, a large double-disc brake system with the radial Brembo brake calipers from Thruxton – So the big Triumph Scrambler in the R version should not only have a lot of ground clearance, but also plenty of chassis reserves. If it still preserves the visual lightness of the prototype (even such a front fender can be a nuisance), one question remains for potential Scrambler customers: How do the British feel about the price? And will they actually be available in two different versions? The answer will probably be found at the big autumn trade fairs in Cologne and Milan.
