That rattling and clanking from the top end sounds bad. Definitely not normal. All good valve trains should make a soft whirring sound and clicking. Not that clattering sound. Probably either the timing chain is loosing and slapping around, or the valve clearances are WAY too loose. It could also be a bad bearing and the camshaft is slapping up and down, but that's less likely because the motor would fail pretty quickly.
Hey everyone, thanks for watching!
Make sure to like,share & subscribe, also lemme know what kind of videos are you'll expecting from me. I am trying to be consistent to upload videos.
Note: few points that I have missed out. Tapped noise issue is because of chain tensioner. Many owners reported that by replacing chain tensioner issue might go. I am not able understand why Triumph technicians say its normal and they don't take further action to solve this issue. And the sticker issue we have to live with it. May be wrap the sticker
I test rode 3 Himalayans and 1 Scrambler 400x. All Himalayans had tappets sounds and engine noise louder than the exhaust sound. But on the Scrambler the only sound I could hear was the exhaust sound. No mechanical clatter what so ever. But seems like after a bit of run, both bikes end up with the same condition.
Tappet noise can be fixed. I am in touch with the dealership. Hope they solve it
That tappet noise is normal.
Get the cam chain tensioner replaced under warranty. In my opinion the extra noise is due to cam chain slack which isnt getting auto adjusted by the tensioner.
I got checked it they said it's normal
My Scrambler also , while idling OR till the 2nd gear has this sound .. ummm.. I dont know how to explain it, it disturbs the wonderful beefy exhaust sound . It comes from the front , where the engine is. I cant figure out how to describe it hahahaha, its like bangles clanking 🤣🤣
i'm new to biking so i cant understand what it is . My gut feeling is its the sound of the chain going around (and i'm overthinking on a normal thing). My first service is 2 weeks away.
Actually, try to Raise a complaint on this. Ask them to escalate this issue. In north some owners got it fixed I guess some service center in gurgaon are changing chain tensioner, if still it's not solved then they are adjusting shims.
its not tappet noise, sometimes when engine is hot timing chain tensioner inside might take while for correct the tension, unless the tensioner inside is not efficiently functioning.
I feel the same. I wish they replace the chain tensioner and check. Technicians says it's normal and denies to investigate the issue more 😞
@@PassionateBiker compare with others, don’t take bike back, even trident street triple have had timing chain/tensioner corrected under warranty, also you will notice some performance loss if this is the case, otherwise it could be clutch plate, check oil level
@@SuperRider-RSbig problem is that nearby service center is almost 200kms from the place I stay. Oil level seems to be fine. No loss in performance as of now.
call service center and complain about that. i complained about the engine oil. i dont trust prolube as there is no info on the internet. i told them from next service i want castrol power1 ultimate and the made an exception.@@PassionateBiker
I bought a silver mettalic and black permanent marker from uniball it's doing good 👍
Oh..let try this
Haha seriously??
@@hetpatel1250 😂. Better to warp that with black color
@@PassionateBiker E
Does speed 400 has this issue ? It has the logo both the sides 😅
No idea regarding speed 400
Hi, most of the bike having the paint issue mine too. I sloved that with a balck perment marker 😀. The manufacturer fill only mineral oil for new engines (will be replaced with synthatic oil during first service) that is the main reason for the tappet noise that will be more auidable while engine is hot. Slight tappet noise is a trade mark character of triumph engines dear wether its a single, twin or trippel.
I see 😁 but many owners don't have tapped noise issue
What is the exact 1st service bill you get, apart from the accessories......
Around 2.1-2.3k I guess didn't calculate
Good Catch
You didn’t say if they were able to fix the very slightly out of alignment, hand guard issue.
Oops. I missed this point too. Those minor alignment issues where fixed....
@@PassionateBiker haha! I was just kidding. It did not seem like the kind of problem you'd need a bike shop to fix. 😙😄
@@PassionateBiker ps. Thanks for the review, I am very interested in getting one of these for my next bike. Maybe this summer, if it ever comes to the UK ! (The summer, I mean, the bikes are here already.) 😁
@@longjonwhiteyea. I could fix on my own 😅. Since I was visiting service centre for first service so thought of mentioning that one too 😂
@@longjonwhiteawesome...great choice! You would definitely love riding this ♥️
What is your height in cm and how comfortable are you on this bike, can you flat foot?
I am 176cm. I can't flat foot but it's easily manageable because of less weight and very good weight distribution.
Hi, i have changed the engine oil to castrol 10w50 super bike. Man now the bike is smooth, vibe free & Heats less when compared to the Hp prolube. Also the unwanted tappet noise is also not present. The stock oil is of low quality and looses is viscosity fast. Save your Bike's Engine and use some quality engine oil Brands such as motul, castrol , liqui moly. YOU will feel the difference !!
Yes, I too felt the same... I'll change it after couple of thousands of kms.
Thank you for the comment.
Bro, what they told about the paint issue on the logo??
Oops! I forgot to say this on video...
They said they can't do anything with it...also they didn't have that in stock so they asked me to live with it...
@@PassionateBiker Thank you bro, I am planning to buy, is it good to buy or any other suggestions you have?
@@karankumar5222 it's a good buy... It ticks all my requirements. Just go for test ride buy what your heart says. No motorcycle is perfect. Issues come and go.
@@PassionateBiker Thank you bro
Hi do you here a sound below the seat when you turn on the key ?
Nope bro. Are you saying about the fuel pump sound? Thats normal
Not that bro, not the fuel pump when the surroundings is silent and start your key not the ignition, there is a some kind of a noise on the top of the engine and below the front seat
@@PassionateBiker I noticed yesterday night while turning the key I heart it
I think you are referring to immobilizer sound, it's normal i beleive. U can check with other bikes of triumph whether if it's the same.
Yes bro i also hear that sound even while switching off also..
Bro is the luggage rack white in colour?
Yes bro , silver type
Why kolhapur instead of goa its nearer i guess
Because I bought my motorcycle in Kolhapur. Goa roads are not that good takes lot of time to travel. Road towards KOLHAPUR is nh4 can easily cruise at 80-100kmph. Can reach within 3.5-4hrs from Hubli
Yes it will peel off in edges because you have to use PPF to protect the paint or else it will be like this I have faced these kind of issues in my previous bikes.
Oh. That should not happen. Not all can afford to pay good quality ppf
Similar noise in my bike which is 15 days old… service centre is saying it is normal….
It's not bro
@@PassionateBiker what's your plan on tackling this
Hi , first get your first service done. See if it gets solved because currently new bike will be having mineral oil. So after first oil change issue might get solved. If still the issue doesn't solve or comes back after some time. Then try to change chain tensioner it's hardly 350₹ if still the issue persist then service center will takes permission from triumph to open engine head to adjust the shims. For all this to happen you need to raise complaint on app. So that triumph will take action on service center.
@@PassionateBiker thanks Mate
@@PassionateBiker Do they need to open the head for chain tensioner replacement? My Scrambler has also started this ticking noise recently, crossed 800km so will get the first service done and observe for changes like you mentioned.
The road you've stopped on looks like one of the best in India and yet there's nobody using it!
Its a service road beside National highway 4 between Belgaum to kolhapur, hence less traffic 🙂. India does have many good roads.
Hindi me bolta toh or b smooth voice hota or samja ne v dikkat nahi hota😊
Next time :D
I dont have that tappid noise that you have
How many kms did you ride? Yes 5/10 owner don't have it
Around 250 kms
Mine came after 750 kms... This noise is irritating
For few Owners after 1st service it went, for few after changing chain tensioner.
Bro can you add me into the group of scrambler 400x
im also facing similar issues
Not the side panel but the rest yes
DO SHARE THE INVITE LINK IF POSSIBLE

Seems for this bike mistakenly Bajaj would have fit auto engine, same sound I felt when I heard.
Bhai Hindi bolne se chota youtuber ban jaoge kya
I am not fluent in Hindi bro...
it's dominar engine so u have to suffer
It's not dominor engine. Because it's totally different. Stroke and bore size as will the chain is on other side unlike KTM and dominor. I have test ridden dominor too.
Triumph is way more smoother then ktms and dominor. Infact u can say KTM and dominor has same exact engine.
@@PassionateBiker If so why so many issues int engine reported by customers. u don't know how original triumph engine quality
