Triumph Speed 400 & Scrambler 400 X arrive
The new Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X have arrived in Australian Triumph Motorcycle dealerships. The new learner legal models retail for $8,990 and $9,990 ride-away respectively, offering exceptional value for new riders.
The two bikes mark Triumph’s entry into the smaller capacity LAMS segment, having only offered 660 cc triple-cylinder offerings until now which only really competed with the 650 class. Now they have an answer to the slew of 350 cc-500 cc options.
The new Speed 400 offers a roadster option, with cast wheels and Metzeler Sportec M9RR tyres, iconic Triumph styling and introduces the new 398 cc single-cylinder, producing 29.4 kW and 37.5 Nm of torque.
Highlights include big-piston forks and a preload-adjustable rear shock, a four-piston front brake caliper, manageable 790 mm seat height and 170 kg wet weight.
The Scrambler 400 X takes things a little further, built on the same platform but featuring longer travel suspension, 19-inch front wheel, longer wheelbase, Metzeler Karoo Street rubber as standard fitment, taller 835 mm seat height and a host of scrambler specific extras. Those do bump the weight up to a still reasonable 179 kg.
Both bikes run an analogue/LCD dash, dual channel ABS, Ride-by-Wire, switchable traction control, USB charging socket, full LED lighting and immobiliser.
The Speed 400 will come in a two-tone paint scheme, with the option of Carnival Red, Caspian Blue or Phantom Black. The Scrambler 400 X runs the Triumph Scrambler tank stripe and badge, in Matt Khaki Green with Fusion White, Carnival Red with Phantom Black, or Phantom Black and Silver Ice. Service intervals will fall at 16,000 km, alongside a two-year warranty.
Paul Stroud – Triumph Motorcycles Chief Commercial Officer
