BMW R nineT Scrambler differentiates itself with a 19-inch front and a 17-inch rear wheel, high-mounted exhaust and a different colour scheme

The BMW R nineT Scrambler is the more ruggedly-packaged version based on the R nineT. The bike gets the atypical Scrambler look with the relaxed seating posture, brown-finished leather seat, and a high-mounted twin exhaust. Vertirmaaran's machine is finished in the Granite Grey Metallic shade, while you also have the option of Black storm metallic/Racing red, Cosmic blue metallic/Light white uni, and Kalamata metallic matt. The styling remains true to the standard R nineT with the boxer engine sticking out, making it an instantly recognisable motorcycle.

In terms of power, the BMW R nineT Scrambler uses the 1170 cc twin-cylinder, air/oiled-cooled boxer engine that develops 108 bhp at 7,250 rpm and 116 Nm of peak torque at 6,000 rpm. The motor is paired with a 6-speed gearbox with a hydraulically actuated clutch and a shaft final drive. The top speed is rated at 200 kmph on the motorcycle while you get two rider modes - Rain and Road, cornering ABS, and traction control, as part of the electronics suite.

The BMW R nineT Scrambler uses 43 mm telescopic forks upfront and a monoshock at the rear, while braking performance comes from 320 mm twin disc brakes at the front and a 265 mm single disc at the rear.  Compared to the standard R nineT, the Scrambler makes do with a 19-inch wheel at the front and a 17-inch wheel at the rear. The Scrambler promises to slush it out better where there's no tarmac and we do hope Vetrimaaran makes full use of his newest possession.
