Based on the boxer-engined R nineT, the Scrambler boasts a feature set that harks back to the dirt bikes that became a status symbol of youthful rebellion in the ’50s, ’60s and ’70s. This includes circular headlamps, a high-mounted ‘two-in-one’ exhaust, long-travel suspension and a reconfigured seating position for a more relaxed posture – although further customisation is positively encouraged, hence the modular rear frame, slew of official accessories, and sole colour option of matte silver with a brown leather saddle.
