Technical Overview
2016 BMW R nine T Scrambler Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by BMW for the naked motorcycle segment, the 2016 BMW R nine T Scrambler pairs a 1170 cc (71.4 cu in) oil & air-cooled two cylinder boxer, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 110 HP (80.3 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 119 Nm (87.8 lb-ft) at 6,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 94 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (6,000 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 400 km (249 miles) between fill-ups.
