Along with the Speed 400, Triumph has also unveiled the Scrambler 400X, which is now the British manufacturer's smallest scrambler offering. While it may slightly resemble the Speed 400, the Scrambler 400X is still notably distinct in its styling. Let’s take a look at it.
Triumph has equipped the Scrambler 400X with the same round LED headlight but with a headlight grille, a slightly taller handlebar with guards, regular mirrors, a two-piece seat, and dual-exhaust canisters.
Overall, the Scrambler 400X appears to have a taller stance and also a longer wheelbase than its sibling.
In its list of accessories, the new Triumph Scrambler 400X gets bullet indicators, heated grips, a set of tank pads, panniers, a top box mount, a mud splash kit, a sump guard, crash protection for the engine, and a windscreen.
Triumph has powered the Scrambler 400X with a 398.15 cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that makes 39.5bhp and 37.5Nm. It’s mated to a six-speed gearbox and gets a slipper clutch.
Similar to the Speed 400, the Scrambler also gets a hybrid spine tubular frame with a bolt-on sub frame. It’s suspended on USD front forks and a gas-charged rear shock with preload adjustment.
Since the Scrambler 400X weighs more than the Speed 400, it also gets a larger front disc for adequate braking prowess. So the overall hardware comprises a 320mm front disc and a 230mm rear disc with dual-channel ABS.
Triumph has equipped the Scrambler 400X with a 19-inch front and a 17-inch rear wheel wrapped in 100/90 front and 140/80 rear dual-purpose tyres.
The list of rider aids includes ride-by-wire, ABS, switchable traction control, and other features like full LED illumination, and a semi-digital instrument console.
The bike is set to debut in India on 5 July. Triumph will offer the Scrambler 400X in three colours – Matt Khaki Green, Carnival Red, and Phantom Black.
