The Triumph Scrambler 1200 Bond Edition
The Triumph Scrambler 1200 Bond Edition was offered for sale in a run of just 250 units for the global market, unsurprisingly they sold out quickly. This would be the first time that EON Productions had partnered with a motorcycle marque, and the Triumph Scrambler 1200 would memorably appear in No Time to Die (see the clip below).
Above Video: This is part of the famous motorcycle chase scene from “No Time To Die” starring Daniel Craig as James Bond. Triumph would offer a similar-specified bike to this for sale in a limited edition run of 250, and the one shown in this article belongs to Daniel Craig who is now selling it.
The Bond Edition of the Scrambler 1200 would be based on the higher-specification XE model, with better suspension and brakes than the more road-oriented XC version.
The Triumph Scrambler 1200 XE has a tubular steel frame surrounding an ally parallel-twin with a displacement of 1200cc, a single overhead cam, a 270° crank angle, four valves per cylinder, and a compression ratio of 11.0:1.
The 1200 XE is good for 89 bhp at 7,400 rpm and 81 lb ft of torque at 3,950 rpm, and it has a 6-speed transmission that sends power to the rear wheel via a chain final drive.
This model has genuine adventure bike ability, thanks in no small part to its 250 mm of suspension travel front and back thanks to Showa 47 mm fully adjustable forks up front and dual Öhlins fully adjustable piggy-back RSU shock absorbers in the rear with twin springs.
Braking is handed with twin 320 mm discs up front with Brembo M50 four-piston monoblock calipers, a radial master cylinder, and cornering ABS. In the rear you’ll find a single 255 mm disc with a Brembo two-piston floating caliper.
The proceeds raise from the sale of this Daniel Craig-owned motorcycle will all be donated to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), the largest lifeboat service operating off the coasts of the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Channel Islands, and the Isle of Man.

The Scrambler 1200 XE is now well established as Triumph’s range-topping dual sport motorcycle, and they have released a small number of special editions including the Steve McQueen Edition and the Bond Edition.

Offered directly from Daniel Craig’s ownership, and signed by him, this bike has all the features you would expect from a Bond Edition 1200 XE including the distinctive design scheme, “007” bodywork, a real leather seat with an embroidered logo, an exhaust number board and lower side panel finisher with 007 branding, and more.
The motorcycle is now for sale, and it comes with Certificate of Authenticity signed by both Daniel Craig and Triumph Motorcycles’ CEO, Nick Bloor. The buyer will also get a riding experience at the Triumph Adventure Experience in Wales with Bond stunt co-ordinator Lee Morrison and his 007 stunt-double Paul Edmondson.

As noted further up, all proceeds will be going to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) service that saves countless lives off the coast of the UK and Ireland each year.
