Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Triumph Street Twin 2019

Except for its looks, the Triumph Street Twin is not as retro as it might appear at first glance. With its water-cooled engine, riding modes, traction control and sporty chassis components, it rather gives the impression of a naked bike disguised in retro design. But all these features, in combination with the powerful torque, become its advantage, as it does not have to hide from equally powered naked bikes at the motorbike show. The Best of Both Worlds, so to speak.

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!
