  • That's right, we test rode the brand new Triumph Scrambler 400 X and Triumph Speed 400 and boy do we have some thoughts about them! These are the brand new, 400cc single cylinder leaner approved bikes from Triumph that are set to shake up the learner market.
    Thanks so much to the newest member of the Biker Torque Team Lukas, who went to Melbourne to test ride both of these bikes. Sounded like a blast! If you wanted a more in-depth analysis on the two bikes, Lukas has published some articles which give you additional information, comparisons and heaps more, check them out!

    Just for your information; many Triumph’s have been manufactured in Thailand for years. Bajaj don’t make Royal Enfield motorcycles; they do make KTM 390’s and many others.

    After watching the Revzilla ride, I’d definitely take the Scrambler. They look like a really fun new range.
    With folks hating on the bike not being made in the UK, have they been living under a rock? lol never mind, that was a rhetorical question.

      @@BikerTorque that’s it. And the thing is, the competition eventually figured out the winning formula, copies it and if the original doesn’t keep up, it ends up like the rest of the English automotive industry. Obliterated. RE definitely needs to begin thinking about their models further into the future.

      @@molonlabe9602 for their biggest market (India) the engines are just fine. In other countries like the US, EU and Australia, we’re use big capacity, we’re use to 100HP and more. It doesn’t work as well. But truthfully, they’re plenty enough.

      Thanks. I’m 6’2 and had exactly the same issues. Scrambler was a good height for me but the Speed was a clown bike for me. I wasn’t overly excited by either. They look fantastic but performance leaves a bit of a “if only” feeling. Still, they’re a good value proposition if you don’t want to get off road too much.

    Bajaj don't manufacture Royal Enfield motorcycles; Eicher Motors manufacture the Royal Enfield in their own facility.

    You really know how to potentially lose Triumph a lot of sales to experienced riders by using the condescending cliché of ‘beginner bikes’.
    That terminology really is old hat now.
    Many of us who have been riding for decades LOVE smaller capacity bikes.
    Come on.
