Motorcycle specifications Triumph1200 Scrambler Bond Edition 2020 Scrambler mixed with a shaker, not a spoon

Triumph is now flirting with that most famous of secret agents: James Bond. Both are British, both love adventure, both have a strong image and both show off at every opportunity. To celebrate the release of the 25th instalment of 007's adventures, a 1200 Scrambler is to be produced in a limited series under the Commander Bond crest.

Dying can wait, but gassing up the trails certainly can't. With its rugged good looks, wide suspension travel and big 90 hp twin, Hinckley's Scrambler is ready to take James around any corner. Dressed all in black (like the one in the film), the bike might seem discreet, and incognito in the night. All good spies must remain secret. But with its big Triumph logo on the tank and Arrow exhausts, it's hard not to be noticed.

the homage to James Bond can be seen in the 007 number plate on the exhaust and airbox cover on the right-hand side, the "Bond Edition" embroidery on the back of the leather seat, a numbered engraved plate on the handlebar bridges, and some very cinephile goodies. On the TFT instrument panel, the 007 symbol appears in the line of sight of a gun barrel, just like in the intros of every film featuring Ian Fleming's character. There's no machine gun in the headlamp, but a protective grille.

This model also gains a few accessories, such as a pair of fog lamps, a machined front brake jar and engine badges. The off-road look is enhanced by a high mudguard

Apart from the carbon-tipped Arrow pots, this Scrambler Bond's technology is identical to that of the XE model. You'll appreciate the Showa 47 mm inverted fork and Öhlins amortos with 250 mm of travel, Brembo M50 brake calipers, 6 riding modes (Wheel - Rain - Sport - Custom Rider - Off-road - Off-Road Pro) and 11.2 mkg of torque.

250 units of the 1200 Scrambler Bond Edition will be sold, roughly equivalent to the number of villains killed since the beginning of the saga. Only 25 will be sold in France. A sign that the premium and glamour segment is doing well: all have already been sold. This Scrambler will be delivered with a basket, including a leather backpack, a protective cover and a certificate of authenticity signed by Triumph boss Nick Bloor. This is not the only bike featured in "No time to die". The new Tiger 900 also stars alongside Daniel Craig. But nothing special is planned for Hinckley's trail bike in terms of commemoration.
