About the Triumph Scrambler 1200

Overview

The Triumph Scrambler 1200 is a motorcycle from Triumph. It is currently on sale. With a 1,200 cc engine it sits in the big-bike, 800 cc-plus class.

Engine and performance

Power comes from a 1,200 cc twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that makes 89 bhp at 7,000 rpm and 110 Nm of torque at 4,250 rpm. Peak torque arrives low in the rev range, at 4,250 rpm, which makes it relaxed to ride in traffic. Its bore is wider than its stroke (97.6 mm x 80 mm), a short-stroke layout that generally favours higher revs. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 396 PS per tonne; by that measure, it is genuinely fast, well beyond everyday traffic speeds. It has electric start.

Gearbox

It has a 6-speed manual gearbox with a 1-down, 5-up shift pattern, and a chain carries drive to the rear wheel. Its slipper clutch lightens the lever and stops the rear wheel hopping when you downshift hard.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

It is built around a tubular steel frame. At the front, the suspension is upside down forks. At the rear, it is marzocchi twin RSU’s with piggyback reservoir, preload adjustable rear suspension. Braking is by a 310 mm disc at the front and a 255 mm disc at the rear, with dual-channel ABS. ABS on both wheels keeps either tyre from locking under hard braking. It rides on 21-inch front and 17-inch rear spoke wheels with tubeless tyres — 90/90 - 21 at the front and 150/70 - R17 at the rear.

Size, comfort and range

The seat is 820 mm off the ground, which is about average and suits most riders. It weighs 228 kg ready to ride, which is heavy, so parking and tight U-turns need care. The wheelbase is 1,525 mm. It carries 15 L of fuel.

Features and equipment

Equipment includes 5 " TFT Display, an LED headlamp, USB charging port, gear position indicator, quickshifter, shift light, engine temperature indicator and low fuel indicator. Safety equipment includes engine kill switch, side-stand engine cut-off, side-stand warning, hazard light switch, traction control and malfunction indicator. It has four riding modes: Rain, Road, Sport and Off-Road and Rider.

Maintaining the Triumph Scrambler 1200

  • Routine servicing

    Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

  • Engine oil & filter

    Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.

  • Brake inspection

    With Disc, 310 mm, 2 piston caliper and Disc, 255 mm, 1 piston caliper brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.

  • Chain cleaning & lubrication

    A clean, correctly tensioned and lubricated chain lasts longer and wastes less power. Check slack regularly, especially after riding in rain or dust.

  • Coolant & cooling system

    A liquid-cooled engine relies on coolant. Check the level and look over hoses and the radiator for leaks or damage, and replace coolant as the owner's manual directs.

  • Air filter & spark plug

    A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.

  • Disc brake fluid

    Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.

  • Tyre inspection

    This bike runs 90/90 - 21 / 150/70 - R17 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

Triumph Scrambler 1200 specs explained

What the technical terms on this page mean.

ABS
Anti-lock braking system. It stops a wheel locking up during hard braking so the rider can keep steering. A single-channel system works on one wheel, usually the front; a dual-channel system works on both.
Liquid cooling
Coolant circulates through the engine and a radiator, keeping temperatures steadier than air alone, especially in traffic or under load.
Assist and slipper clutch
The assist part makes the clutch lever lighter. The slipper part eases the rear wheel's tendency to hop when you shift down hard.
Upside-down fork
A front fork mounted the opposite way round to a conventional one, with the thicker tubes at the top. It is typically stiffer under braking and cornering.
Tubeless tyres
Tyres with no inner tube. A small puncture usually loses air slowly, which makes roadside repair easier.
Kerb weight
The weight of the bike ready to ride, with its fluids and fuel, but without a rider or luggage.
Bore x stroke
The cylinder's width and the piston's travel. A larger bore relative to stroke tends to favour revs; a longer stroke tends to favour low-speed pull.
Compression ratio
How much the fuel-air mixture is squeezed before it is ignited. It is one of the factors behind an engine's efficiency and power.
