Bmw R Ninet Scrambler
The Bmw R Ninet Scrambler has a top speed of 200 km/h (estimated; BMW does not officially publish top speed), produces 110 hp and weighs 220 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
De BMW R nineT Scrambler werd in 2016 geïntroduceerd als onderdeel van de Heritage-familie van BMW Motorrad, voortbouwend op het succes van de originele R nineT die in 2013 werd gelanceerd. Het is ontworpen om de klassieke Scrambler-stijl op te roepen met een hoog gemonteerde uitlaat, spaakwielen en een naar boven gericht voorspatbord, aantrekkelijk voor rijders die op zoek zijn naar een retro-avontuurlijke esthetiek met moderne betrouwbaarheid. Het model hielp BMW om in te spelen op de groeiende scrambler-trend die populair werd door merken als Ducati en Triumph, en bood een luchtgekoeld boxerkarakter in een robuuster, uitgeklede verpakking.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Rock-Solid Engine Reliability
The air-cooled 1170cc boxer twin is famously durable, often exceeding 100,000 miles with basic maintenance. It shares its proven architecture with decades of BMW boxer engines, giving it an excellent long-term track record.
Watch the Final Drive
The shaft drive can develop a clunking 'driveshaft lash' over time, especially if maintenance intervals are skipped. Always test ride and listen for driveline slack before purchasing a used example.
Strong Resale Value
The R nineT Scrambler holds its value exceptionally well compared to most middleweight motorcycles, thanks to BMW's brand prestige and strong custom/retro market demand. Low-mileage examples often sell close to original MSRP.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"Character-rich retro that rewards patient riders willing to spend wisely."
$8,000-$12,500 usedThe R nineT Scrambler is one of those bikes that looks better in person than in photos, which is saying something. The 1170cc air-cooled boxer thumps with genuine character, that satisfying torque surge between 3,000-5,000rpm making urban riding genuinely enjoyable. Used examples from 2016-2019 are hitting sweet spots around $8-10k, and they're largely bulletproof mechanically. Check the throttle body sync and inspect the final drive splines — neglected maintenance there gets expensive fast. The ergonomics divide opinion hard. That wide, flat handlebar position feels natural for the first hour, then your wrists start negotiating. Seat height is manageable at 31.7 inches, but the stock saddle is genuinely terrible past 90 minutes. Budget for an aftermarket seat immediately. Also verify the exhaust headers haven't been cooked by aftermarket cans — BMW's catalytic converter placement runs hot. What you're buying is authenticity rather than performance. It's not fast by modern standards, doesn't corner like a sportsbike, but every single ride feels like an event rather than a commute.
