In 2020 Triumph, the premium British motorcycle brand founded in 1902, introduced the limited edition Scrambler 1200 Bond Edition to celebrate an iconic British partnership. In December 2019, Triumph had announced a new official partnership with EON Productions, revealing the dynamic action featuring Triumph motorcycles in the forthcoming 25th ‘James Bond’ film, No Time to Die, starring Daniel Craig. To celebrate this milestone collaboration, Triumph, proudly introduced the first ever official motorcycle directly linked to the James Bond franchise. To date Daniel has starred in five ‘Bond’ movies, commencing with Casino Royale in 2006 and most recently in No Time to Die (2021). Daniel says No Time to Die will be his last film as James Bond.
The Scrambler 1200 Bond Edition is an ultra-rare and exclusive model featuring a unique ‘007’ design scheme and limited to a production of just 250 models worldwide.

The Scrambler 1200 Bond Edition offers class leading torque and a dedicated ‘scrambler tune’. The charismatic 270° firing interval ensures a smooth, linear power delivery from the slick six-speed gearbox. Evolved specifically for the Scrambler, the 1200 engine produces 89bhp at 7,400rpm, and additionally, is tuned to deliver ‘high torque’ off-road and on, low down and across the mid-range, with peak torque of 81.1lb/ft at a low 3,950 revs.
Delivering the evocative Scrambler soundtrack is a beautifully crafted twin high-level exhaust system with stainless steel headers and an Arrow silencer with carbon-fibre end-caps for a deep and punchy scrambler sound. Just like all the new generation Bonnevilles, the Scrambler 1200 engine offers ride-by-wire control, boasting six riding modes, cornering ABS, and traction control.
With only 250 sold worldwide, the Scrambler 1200 Bond Edition will be one of Triumph’s most exclusive and desirable Modern Classics. Featuring a beautiful individually-numbered plaque on the billet riser clamp, each one is unique and never to be repeated. Every Bond Edition came with a special tailor-made handover pack unique to that bike, featuring a numbered letter hand-signed by Triumph’s CEO Nick Bloor, and a premium rucksack.
The Scrambler 1200 Bond Edition features Triumph’s latest generation full-colour TFT instruments with a unique 007 startup screen, a stylish design and two information layout design themes that can be personalized, enabling the rider to update the startup screen message with their name. The Scrambler 1200 Bond Edition also comes with all-LED lighting, illuminated backlit switches, keyless ignition, heated grips, cruise control, and USB charging.
The Bond Edition features premium fully-adjustable twin-spring Öhlins rear suspension units with piggyback reservoirs, which deliver class-leading wheel travel (250mm) and increased ground clearance for amazing off-road capability. Topping off the high-specification running gear are premium Brembo M50 monobloc radial brake callipers, adjustable folding foot controls, first-in-class tubeless tyres, and a spoked 21″ front wheel.
Number ‘003’ of the 250 built, this Bond Edition was given to Daniel Craig by Triumph and is offered for sale by him, with all proceeds going to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution, a cause close to Daniel’s heart.
