BMW R nineT Scrambler 2018

BMW R nineT Scrambler 2018

There's really no point in trying to figure out why the R nineT is so popular, the concept is obviously an excellent fit for today. The BMW R nineT Scrambler also works excellently, relying on the same "old" boxer engine with air cooling, which BMW has miraculously made Euro4-compatible without sacrificing performance or character. The chassis is softer, the wheelbase longer and the equipment more spartan - but under the alias Scrambler this is perfectly acceptable, after all the focus is on comfortable riding. The optional one-man saddle is a bit hard, but the R nineT Scrambler is by no means uncomfortable, and the riding position is particularly convincing. So if you can live with less equipment, steel instead of aluminium and simpler suspension elements, you can save a lot of money with the Scrambler - which you can then best invest in customising!

Boxer engine with character - vibrations, power and sound included. Nevertheless Euro4-compliant

comfortable chassis

pleasant seating position

powerful brakes

cool looks

much cheaper than the R nineT.

rather hard saddle

spartan dashboards, in the base without rev counter and gear indicator
