NEW BMW SCRAMBLER
You could call it BMW’s hipster boxer. BMW certainly wouldn’t mind, seeing as they launched the R NineT Scrambler, their newest flat twin, in an old plant nursery converted for the occasion into a sort of urban loft with wooden floorboards, coffee bar, workshop, upended pallets, bygone metal wall signs and an extensive collection of antique oil cans. “It embodies life off the beaten track,” gushes BMW’s Rudi Probst. “It suggests freedom, liberty and a new way. It gives you pictures in your head.” Well, maybe. But you can’t argue with the numbers: BMW have sold 20,000 original R NineTs in two
years, plus of course a boatload of GSs (Europe’s top-selling bike). Clearly the boxer engine, which was almost dropped from BMW’s range in 1991, is more popular than ever.
