Engineered by Triumph for the classic motorcycle segment, the 2021 Triumph Scrambler 1200 XC relies on a 1200 cc (73.2 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 88.8 HP (64.8 kW) at 7,400 rpm while maximum torque reaches 110 Nm (81.1 lb-ft) at 3,950 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 74 HP per liter and a 3,450 rpm working window between peak torque (3,950 rpm) and peak power (7,400 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
On the scales, the Scrambler 1200 XC measures 205 kg (452 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.43 HP/kg (2.31 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 840 mm (33.1 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,530 mm (60.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 16-liter (4.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.9 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 327 km (203 miles) between fill-ups.
