Triumph Scrambler 900 specifications and features
Every figure from the manufacturer's sheet, plus what each feature actually does for you.
The numbers in context
Each figure read against the 148 sports bikes we have reviewed.
The figures below are the manufacturer's. To make them mean something, each is read against the 148 sports bikes we have reviewed: the class average is the number to beat, and the rank shows how far the Scrambler 900 is from the ends of the field.
The 900 cc engine is 364 cc above the class average of 536 cc, 31st of 148. Peak power of 64.1 bhp is 1.9 bhp below the class average of 66 bhp, 56th of 148. Torque of 80 Nm is 27 Nm above the class average of 53 Nm, 37th of 148. High torque for the class means fewer downshifts in traffic.
Kerb weight is 223 kg, 41 kg above the class average of 182 kg, 136th of 146. Expect that mass to show in traffic and when paddling it backwards, though it also helps stability at speed. Seat height is 790 mm, 23 mm below the class average of 813 mm, 126th of 144. Ground clearance is 158 mm, 11 mm below the class average of 169 mm, 89th of 123. Take tall speed breakers at an angle with a pillion, and slow right down for the unpainted ones.
Fuel tank is 12 litres, 2.1 litres below the class average of 14.1 litres, 105th of 145. At a realistic 20 kmpl that is roughly 235 km between fills. Wheelbase is 1445 mm, 39 mm above the class average of 1406 mm, 42nd of 141.

Features, and why each matters
Grouped by what they do for you. Underlined items link to a plain-English explainer.
Safety and braking
Stops both wheels from locking under panic braking. The single biggest safety upgrade on a two-wheeler.
Front disc brake
Sheds heat and works when wet. Worth the small premium over a drum on any commuter.
Rear disc brake
Adds feel and fade resistance at the back; matters more on heavier or faster bikes.
Tubeless tyres
A puncture deflates slowly instead of instantly, and roadside repair takes ten minutes.
Traction control
Cuts power if the rear spins on wet paint or gravel. Rare under ₹2 lakh.
Side-stand engine cut-off
Engine will not run with the stand down, which prevents a common low-speed crash.
Hazard lamps
All four indicators flash; useful in fog and when stopped on a highway shoulder.
Lighting
LED daytime running lamp
Makes you visible to cars in daylight, when most two-wheeler collisions happen.
LED tail lamp
Lights up instantly, which gives the vehicle behind a fraction more warning.
Console and connectivity
Digital console
Trip meters, real-time mileage and a gear indicator. The analogue dial is disappearing.
Ride modes
An Eco map for mileage and a Power map for overtakes, switched from the bars.
Convenience
USB charging port
Charges the phone on a long commute. Check whether it is Type-A or Type-C.
Engine kill switch
Switch the engine off from the right bar without reaching for the key.
Equipment against Scrambler Icon, Scrambler 1200 and Scrambler Full Throttle
