BMW R nineT 2014

BMW R nineT 2014

Very worthy retro machine. The other classic manufacturers really need to catch up.

Optics, engine, fork, workmanship

A touch too little rebound damping in the shock absorber

Triumph Scrambler 1200 X 2026

Triumph Scrambler 1200 X 2026

The Triumph Scrambler 1200 X is an emotional and powerful bike that feels just as comfortable on long touring tours as it does on challenging winding roads. With its charismatic engine and stable geometry, it conveys a powerful riding experience and attracts attention with its striking design. But it also impresses in practical terms, particularly with its versatility and suitability for everyday use. However, there are weaknesses in the features and handling, which should not go unmentioned for a bike in this price range.
