BMW R nineT Scrambler 2016

There's really no point in trying to figure out why the R nineT is so popular, the concept obviously fits in excellently with today's times. Whether this modern retro style will also work one price class down with the BMW R nineT Scrambler remains to be seen. But the prerequisite is very good, the Scrambler relies on the same, "old" boxer engine with air cooling, which BMW miraculously made suitable for Euro4 without sacrificing performance and 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 is best invested in individual customising!

It was predictable that the new R 1200 RT would perform even better with the new partially water-cooled boxer engine. Although 125 hp and 125 Newton metres of torque have quite a bit to haul with the 274 kilos ready to ride, the RT retains its unbelievable effervescence from below. This makes it extremely agile, especially on corner exit after a hairpin bend. In combination with the gearshift assistant Pro (which is, of course, available at extra cost), the gears just flow and you involuntarily move more sportily than you might have intended. The big bonus points of the R 1200 RT are its good workmanship, the simple and easy-to-follow operating principle and, last but not least, its small turning circle.
