Triumph Scrambler 1200 — Overview

The Triumph Scrambler 1200 is a bike available at a starting price of Rs. 12,64,100 in India. It comes in 1 variant and 3 colours. It is powered by a 1200 cc BS6 Phase 2 engine. With both front and rear disc brakes, the Triumph Scrambler 1200 comes with anti-locking braking system. The Scrambler 1200 bike weighs 228 kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 15 liters. It develops a power output of 89 bhp and a torque of 110 Nm.

At Rs 12.64 Lakh ex-showroom, the Triumph Scrambler 1200 X is one of the best-equipped premium scramblers you can buy in India right now. Underneath the beautifully retro bodywork sits a 1,200cc liquid-cooled parallel twin with a 270° crank - 89 bhp and a generous 110 Nm of torque that makes light work of both NH stretches and forest tracks. It came to India in February 2024 as the accessible entry into Triumph's Scrambler lineup, with five riding modes, cornering ABS, and a TFT display. The closest rival, the Ducati Scrambler 1100, is similarly priced but lighter and lower; the Triumph hits back with more power, a larger tank, and arguably more premium electronics. If you're looking for a big scrambler that doesn't apologise for its size, this one deserves a serious look.

Triumph Scrambler 1200 Latest Updates

View all

  • Triumph India has confirmed the 2026 Scrambler 1200 X will arrive in India later this year, with a marginal price increase expected over the current Rs 12.64 Lakh ex-showroom price. The update brings a new Matt Khaki Green colour and revised headlight cowl; mechanicals are unchanged.

  • Triumph India revised the Scrambler 1200 X ex-showroom price upward to Rs 12.64 Lakh from January 2026, reflecting increased GST rates on motorcycles displacing more than 350cc. This brought the Delhi on-road price to approximately Rs 14.16 Lakh.

  • Triumph unveiled the 2026 Scrambler 1200 X with cosmetic updates: a new Matt Khaki Green paint option, revised headlight cowl, and Dark Black theme on side panels and mudguards. The 1200cc parallel twin engine, electronics package, and chassis remain unchanged from the 2024 model.

What We Like

  • Torque-rich 1200cc parallel twin pulls effortlessly from low revs - perfect for lazy highway cruising on Indian NHs
  • Long-travel suspension and 19-inch front wheel deliver genuine off-road composure on mixed terrain
  • Five riding modes (Rain, Road, Sport, Off-Road, and Rider-configurable) make it genuinely adaptable
  • Premium TFT display, cornering dual-channel ABS and traction control standard at this price point

What Could Be Better

  • Engine heat in slow city traffic is a real issue - Mumbai and Bengaluru stop-and-go will test your patience
  • 820 mm seat height and 228 kg kerb weight make it challenging for shorter riders and tight technical off-roading
  • Triumph's dealership network is still metro-centric - aftersales access is limited in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities

Editor's Verdict

Should You Buy the Triumph Scrambler 1200?

The Triumph Scrambler 1200 X is a genuinely well-rounded premium scrambler - it looks stunning, rides well on tarmac, and handles light off-road work confidently. The engine heat in city traffic and the tall seat are real-world trade-offs you should test before buying, but if you're in a metro with a Triumph dealer nearby, it's a compelling alternative to the Ducati at Rs 12.64 Lakh.
