Despite the Euro 5 homologation, the 2021 Scrambler range still maintain the same 89hp @ 7,250rpm and 110Nm @ 4,500rpm thanks to a low inertia crank and a high compression cylinder head, plus a dedicated Scrambler tune, specifically developed to give the perfect balance of power and torque delivery for both road and off-road riding.
