Brixton Storr 1200: What To Expect?
The design of the Brixton Storr 1200 clearly reflects its adventure bike (ADV) nature. It bears some resemblance to the Ducati DesertX but also showcases unique design elements and a subframe that appears to be cast aluminium, similar to the Storr 500 model listed on Brixton's international website. However, it will have its own design tweaks.
The chassis seems to draw inspiration from the Cromwell 1200 X. In the leaked images, it appears to have spoked wheels with a 19-inch wheel at the front and a 17-inch wheel at the rear.

Brixton Storr 1200: Engine And Hardware
The Storr 1200 is expected to share the same 1222 cc engine found in the Cromwell 1200 and Cromwell 1200 X models. This in-line, two-cylinder engine produces 82 bhp and 104 Nm of torque. However, the Storr might offer even more torque.
On the mechanical side, the bike is expected to come with an upside-down fork setup for the front suspension and twin shock absorbers at the rear. For braking, it will likely have twin discs at the front and a single disc at the rear, along with ABS for enhanced safety.
Brixton Storr 1200: India-Bound?
Regarding its launch in India, it seems unlikely in the immediate future, but we might see it by late 2025.

Verdict
There are numerous launches anticipated from this brand in India, although some models may take longer to arrive. Specifically, this upcoming model's debut is uncertain, but if it does arrive, it will compete with established brands in the Indian market.
