2024 Triumph Speed 400 - First ride impression (in the wet!) [4K]
In this video we take out the 2024 Triumph Speed 400 as a first ride impression! A bike that was in research and development for 7 years, very much anticipated and has already proven to be flying out of the showrooms!
The bike was loaned to me from Kings Norfolk Triumph (a great bunch!), and I got to spend a couple of hours getting to know the bike - on what started out to be a very wet day! It actually dried out towards the end of my session which gave me the opportunity to stretch the bikes legs a bit!
We go through some of the specs of the Speed 400, but also how the bike made me feel. Being a 398cc single cylinder engine it’s a lot smaller than what I used to - but that didn’t hamper the fun, the bike was oozing fun (it was a little thumper of an engine!) and great looks at the same time! It’s an ideal bike for someone who is just starting out, but also in my opinion for someone who just fancies a smaller bike to whip around the country roads. I could certainly see myself in my later biking years really going for a motorbike similar to this one.
If you have any questions about my ride or the Speed 400 please leave a comment below!

      @MotoBikerMike Thanks. You haven't by chance tried any windscreens with 4 point mounting that work on a Speed Twin 1200 have you? I'm a bit worried about shaking on rough roads. Hanging way out there on 2 mounting arms is a bit stressed for a windscreen. I'm concerned that the Custom II might move after a few bumps.

    Hi I've been driving a Honda CB1000R SC60 for five years. I would like to change to a Triumph. Will the 675r be a good choice? I like it very much, but I'm worried that switching from 1000cc will be boring

      @MotoBikerMike 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@matimateo6932 I would say you’ll have nothing to worry about switching to 675r. You’re saving around 25kg on weight, so power to weight ratio is similar, but you’ll feel a lot more nimble on the 675r, carving corners a lot easier. And the induction noise over 8k revs will keep a smile on your face that’s for sure! 😁

      The Hinckley Triumph HQ, known as 'Factory 2', has around 800 employees, 420 of those are in R&D, so all Triumph bikes are designed and engineered there. The Hinckley site also machines crankshafts from raw forgings to fully finished components as well as having a full paint-shop that produces spare parts and custom/prototype items. Manufacturing takes place in advanced factories, (3, 4 and 5) which are located in Thailand. Dependent on the destination market and commercial considerations the bikes are either sent fully built or in kit form and assembled using a local work force as is the case at Hinckley for the Tiger 900 and 1200s.

      Hi. I drive a Honda CB1000r from 2008, modified motorcycle, ECU flash. After five years, Minsie got bored. I really like the Street triple 675r and rx. What do you think about this change? Will the Triumph be too weak after switching from 1000cc? what appeals most to me is the low weight of the Triumph. thank you for your help

    • @MotoBikerMike
      @MotoBikerMike 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi, thanks for your message. I think it's a very worthy option, you'll be going from an inline 4 to the inline 3 - so you'll have to bear that in mind. That said - I think you would love the howl from the triple engine and the raw induction noise. You'll be coming down a few bhp (130bhp to 106bhp) , but also dropping around 30kg in wet weight which might negate that a bit - however, I think you will enjoy taking this lighter bike out and taking on the corners - the power delivery is pretty linear, so no fun lost in the low/mid or higher rev ranges. Hope that helps! Let us know how you get on!
