It might not look like a radical departure but the new 1200 X is a huge step in making Triumph’s big Scrambler accessible to a much wider audience, with a more affordable price and a low seat that opens ownership to a whole spectrum of potential customers who couldn’t have considered the Scrambler 1200 XC that it replaces. Combine those new features with a range of revisions and updates that apply to both the Scrambler 1200 X and the more off road oriented Scrambler 1200 XE and the bikes can be seen as a substantial upgrade over their predecessors. The new 1200 X is far more accessible, easier to live with day to day and with £800 sliced off its price tag, considerably cheaper than before. Triumph has dropped the spec in areas new Marzocchi forks, for example are non adjustable, but improved functionality, accessibility and safety with the introduction of lean sensitive rider aids. Like previous Scrambler 1200 models, the 2024 machines use the High Power version of Triumph’s liquid cooled, 1200cc parallel twin but the engine has been tweaked for 2024 to shift its peak power and torque lower in the rev range. There’s a single throttle body, like the previous models, which is relatively unusual in itself and helps ensure there’s enough space for the high level exhaust system that runs past it, but for 2024 it’s a new 50 milimeters unit. Along with revised exhaust headers with improved flow and an ECU tune to suit, the result is unchanged peak power and torque of 89 horsepower and 81,1 pound feet, but both figures arrive 250rpm lower in the rev range than before, at 7,000rpm and 4,250rpm respectively. Triumph says the high end torque from 5,000rpm to the 7,500rpm redline is also improved. That power is put down via a cornering traction control system governed by a Continental inertial measurement unit, with five riding modes Sport, Road, Rain, Off Road and Rider Configurable. As before there’s a conventional six speed transmission with chain drive, connected to the engine via a torque assist clutch.
