What’s New for 2026 Is Actually a Return To Form

The history of the Scrambler 1200 XE is revealing here. When the model launched in 2019, it used a Showa fork and Öhlins rear shocks – premium components that established the XE as a serious off-road motorcycle in retro clothing. For model year 2024, Triumph replaced them with Marzocchi suspension, reducing cost and making the XE more accessible, but drawing criticism from part of the customer base.

For 2026, Triumph reverses that decision. The Showa fork and Öhlins shocks return, explicitly in response to customer demand actwriknpvkjolbotqfwf
