Triumph Scramber 400X

From a press release byTriumph:

Conceived and designed in Hinckley, UK, these two new additions to the modern classics line-up have been developed with the same exacting attention to detail as Triumph’s most celebrated models. They are instantly recognizable thanks to their timeless Triumph silhouettes, signature sculpted fuel tanks and classic engine profiles and have been designed to deliver all of the quality, feel, and presence of their larger capacity stablemates. Traditional touches, like the distinctive finned cylinder head and traditional exhaust header clamps combine with contemporary details like the upswept silencer, bold graphics and sensitively-incorporated technology, such as concealed liquid-cooling and a flowing exhaust run with hidden primary silencer. All combining to deliver that unmistakeable Triumph modern custom style. The high-quality finish and elegant detailing continues with the trademark black powder-coated engine casings, tough gold anodised forks, high-quality paint, and logo detailing which ensure the finish on these new models is premium throughout.

The Speed 400’s two-tone paint schemes, each feature a prominent Triumph tank graphic, reflect its dynamic style, with Carnival Red, Caspian Blue and Phantom Black colors available.

Accentuating the Scrambler 400 X’s all-road attitude are lots of purposeful and practical features, including protection for the headlight, radiator, and sump, as well as handguards, a handlebar brace with pad, and a longer front mudguard.

The Scrambler 400 X is available in three stylish and contemporary color schemes, each featuring Triumph’s distinctive ‘Scrambler’ tank stripe and triangle badge, with Matte Khaki Green and Fusion White, Carnival Red and Phantom Black, plus Phantom Black and Silver Ice options.

Timeless Triumph Design DNA with Contemporary Poise:

- Timeless Triumph classic roadster and Scrambler silhouettes
- Signature sculpted tank with knee indents
- Classic Triumph engine profile with triangle badge
- Distinctive finned cylinder head and exhaust header clamps
- Contemporary upswept silencer
- Premium materials and finishes
- Each available in a choice of three distinctive model-specific color schemes

The all-new TR-Series Engine

Named to celebrate the historic Triumph ‘Trophy’ bloodline, whose roots can be traced back to the racing singles of the early twentieth century, and International Six Day Trials offroad competition. This all-new fuel-injected and liquid-cooled 398cc single-cylinder engine combines Triumph’s trademark modern classic style with state-of-the-art engineering to deliver class-beating performance with a responsive, fun, and characterful power delivery along with an evocative, rich, and distinctive exhaust note.

Technical highlights include a four-valve, DOHC cylinder head and a crankshaft that has been perfectly weighted and balanced to optimize inertia for low-speed rideability. A finger-follower valvetrain with a low reciprocating mass and DLC coatings that reduce friction also contribute to the capacity-defying performance of this free-revving yet tractable engine.

The six-speed gearbox delivers light, precise gear selection with ratios perfectly spread to make the most of this characterful and torque-rich engine.

Key features of this all-new engine include:

Class-leading 39.5 HP peak power and 27.7 LB-FT of peak torque
Four valve, Liquid-cooled, single-cylinder
Concealed liquid-cooling and machined cooling fins
Trademark black powder-coated engine casings
Characterful, compelling, and responsive power delivery
Evocative, rich, and distinctive exhaust note

Triumph's easy, agile, dynamic and confidence-inspiring ride

With ergonomics designed for optimum comfort and control, the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X benefit from a slim standover which combines with an accessible seat height of 31 inches (790mm) and 32.9 inches (835mm) respectively and a low weight of 375lb (170kg) / 395lb (179kg) to offer assured low-speed handling and the ability to get feet to the ground.

Both models benefit from their own model-specific chassis, with a new frame, bolt-on rear subframe and cast-aluminum swingarm paired with suspension set-ups tailored to each use case, both delivering Triumph’s famously easy, agile, and dynamic handling.

The Speed 400 features large 43mm big-piston upside-down front forks, mono-shock Rear Suspension Unit with external reservoir, lightweight 17-inch wheels and roadster-specific geometry and wheelbase. Giving an engaging and intuitive ride along with a comfortable, neutral riding position that inspires confidence for riders of all sizes and skill levels. Powerful four-piston radial front brakes with a 300mm front disc and braided lines give a responsive brake feel for improved rider confidence.

The Scrambler 400 X features a longer wheelbase, longer travel suspension, larger 19-inch front wheel and wide handlebars for greater stability and control when riding on loose surfaces, as well as providing a more upright and commanding Scrambler riding position. A larger cast steel brake pedal and high-grip foot pegs that are positioned lower and wider also make for a more natural standing riding position when riding off-road, while a larger 320mm front brake disc and optimized pad compound deliver reassuringly progressive braking performance in all conditions.
