BMW R nineT Scrambler – the memory of the Sixties
Even with the presentation of the first R nineT model it was clear that BMW would follow up with other versions of the massively successful modern classic. The Roadster was very well received, particularly by customisers who really took to the new model and created their own fascinating conversions. Including an entire range of highly appealing scramblers – among others, our internationally highly regarded Six Days! It is therefore no surprise that the Bavarians have created a scrambler as the first design variant of the R nineT.
Upright seat position, bulky tyres, high exhaust and wide handlebars, as well as longer spring deflections — these are the hallmarks of a scrambler. Back in the sixties, American hobby riders used to bring their converted two-wheelers to mountain and road races. Although it later gave way to the enduro class, the scrambler is experiencing something of a renaissance today and are in higher demand than ever.
