I’ve never understood the term beginner bike. Some people just want a smaller engine and a smaller cooler looking retro bike and I don’t want a 1200 in it.
Just a category; people who just start out may be feeling intimidated by the vast selection of bikes need a narrower selection to chose from, which has a lower skill cieling.
I daily a s1000rr and am here because I also don't need 200hp to commute and this bike's gorgeous.
I gave up on that, just roll my eyes n say whatever .
They're called that because the main consumers of these bikes are beginners.
Does it hurt you bro?
me neither, i used to use it. But quickly realized, if a beginner has money, they'll jump 600+ right away. I know a person who got a BMWS1000R as a first bike. Rides it fine. He respects the bike and knows his skill level.
As a proud owner of one, i cannot stop having fun on it
Where you live at ?

"Pride of ownership" definitely seems like the outstanding feature of this bike! Looks like a fun bike to ride but also just as satisfying to wash and wax. Low cost retro perfection?
OC - I’ve been waiting for the Triumph 400s to drop so I could compare it to various Royal Enfields. Their 350s Classic, Hunter, & Scram411 all felt under powered. Loved RE’s 650 GT! I was comparing the GT to Triumph Speed 900s, but 900 was more bike than I needed. I’m a wee 130lb 5’7” older ahem not old 😊 returning rider after 10+years away. Weight was a big factor. I don’t want to be struggling to trying park My last bike was a ‘99 Ducati Monster 750 Dark that I had for 6 years. 😎 I knew I wanted a classic European look, so I didn’t even test ride the baby Japanese sport bikes. I also owned. ninja500, super fun ride but never was in love with the look. Pulled the trigger on Speed and no regrets.
Chain on the same side as the exhaust? Wonder if that makes it more difficult to clean.
I have the red one as a second bike, I really LOVE this bike zipping around town. Just fun gunning this single, if I did the same on my BMW I'd be in trouble ... just a lovely ride!
That blue really pops on camera!
Probably due to the color grading. The surrounding's colors look wonky too.
Trust me, it looks way better in person!
I feel like I've been spammed with advertising wrapped with a marketeer who thinks the word "point" is somehow meaningful or important.
If someone wants a lighter bike, that does not make him or her a beginner. I’m hardly a beginner and this bike could appeal to me.
I have the scrambler on the shortlist as a second bike for city riding and/or short hooligan trips. Loved the old MT-03 for stuff like that.
I love how you edit your videos.
The mirrors were an issue for my 2022 Speed Triple as well. CRG Hindsight Lanespliters solved that issue perfectly.
Its a DISGRACE. 😂. Too funny.
Great review. I will be a returning rider, after about 8 years from a touring bike. I am 59 now and I need to consider that my riding skills may have decreased, and I think these 400cc Triumphs look very interesting.
How many cylinder?

@@Pfannkuchenkanone thanks
Im about 20 minutes away from Triumph Roswell. I'm so excited and will be seeing them next month . Hopefully the Blue is available 🙏🏾
Aliens ride cycles ?
OC That's an awesome looking bike. Also, this video turned out to be really entertaining Chase 😅
Just recently purchased a 400X. Super fun bike, and quite comfortable 👌
Update ?
@@leeinwis almost 600 miles on it and loving it! Super fun bike 😁. I've taken it down all sorts of different roads too. Handles dirt surprisingly well 👌🏻
I feel like it would be pointless for most riders, but I would like to see a review on the Honda CB300R. I would like the Honda quality, but still a small bike for city riding with short rides on the highway.
Also it would be cool to see him do a wheelie on a big boy Grom.
It's a slower but comfortable ride, and it's reliable Honda, the motor has been around a long time .For me it's felt too small and cramped at 5'10" but better than some others.
Beginner bike, commuter bike, second bike …all nonsense - a good, fun bike is great for everyone.
Hey Chase, about to be a first time buyer/rider. Do you counter steer through a wrap around loop? For example: full exit ramp/loop from highway to interstate.
OC: NO WAY CHASE STUMBLED INTO A CAR SHESH!! 😂😂😂😂
I think low CC bike riders will become better riders because you can actually learn how your bike behaves at all RPM ranges. Also having to shift more often teaches yoy how to do it well....but i may be biased in my opinion 🤷🏻♂️
Can you make a review on the 2024 KLX300SM ,I would like your input,great video
It's a Kaw so it's gonna be good .
Bro…. In broad daylight 🤣
Wat ?
Why not lol I've done it in some odd places lol
Honda really needs to enter this market properly
The CL500 is no slouch .
Beginner bike fail for using the term. Sick of it too.
This bike just needs the rear or front sprocket to be changed to make the gearing taller. And also an aftermarket touring windscreen to block some wind and it would make a good all round bike.
what if my 250l rally blows it's doors off ?
@@leeinwisnot sure what you are saying
Oc Excited to see your review of the scramble 400. I think that one might be more of my alley.
I literally just rode one today. I noticed that 8k rpm limit I was hitting the gears super quick. I imagine it being more fun when it’s broken in and will hit 12k rpm. It was pretty light and nimble. 😂 I managed to slide the front tire and rear tire stopping. I rode into the dealer on a STRS Moto2 so I was expecting much but it was fun for sure! I’d buy a used one.
Watching this makes me happy I went with the Husqvarna 401 Vitpilen, even though this is probably a bit more comfortable.
Great little bike. Bought it for those days that I just didn't want to drag out my Tiger Explorer 1200. Better than I expected.
I will take exception to your statement about the seat, though - it's a 100 mile seat. That being said, it's well within the sort of distances I plan on riding it. This is NOT the bike that I'll leave Virginia heading for Wyoming on. I have other bikes for that.
CHurch parking lot ... made my evening
I've never seen one up close but it looks very small. wondering if it will hold 2 riders with comfort and not looking weighed down.
Seriously, take that bike, stick it in the xerox at 110% and slap the 660 engine in it and I am ALLLL over it. Like, literally change nothing else about it. Hands down one of the best looking bikes you can buy new right now.
That would be the triumph trident lol. It's already out.
@@ryangiltner5640 Eh, it's not really. I want a bike that looks exactly like the Speed 400, just 10% larger with the 660. I know Triumph won't do that specifically because of the trident, but I just don't like the look of the trident as much as the Speed 400.
That's a really nice duke390
I've had 9 motorcycles in my 76 years, the first was a Honda CL 72 250cc scrambler in 1965, and the last one was a GSXR 600CC tricked out, I love the look of this bike, so yesterday I went to local dealer, what really turned me off was they had a $1,500 mark up, that's Bullshit, it's a great deal at $4,495, but not at $6,400, that was a no deal breaker, sell the thing for MSRP. The Fiesta Flash.
Dealerships all over have become even more assholey than before .
Perfect for daily city riding
I want one of the scrambler 400x so bad!
oc
I'm probably upgrading to a low CC bike this summer.
I had my CRF230M for 10 years this month and almost 6 with my Grom (keeping that beast), either going with a Duke 390 or CRF450RL on motard wheels.
Those C5 Z06 wheels look good on that bike. It really brings this bike into the current century.
There is a faired version being tested. It looks so sick.
Does anyone know which Quad Lock mount works with that center mounting position shown here? 4:22
OC YOUR THE BEST
OC-I’d go with the Husqvarna Svartpilen or maybe a Royal Enfield Himalayan, mainly because I love the looks of those. Probably the smarter move would be some Honda because reliability, but they are seemingly soulless IMO.
I just sold my LAST Harley. I paid $37,000 for it and it broke down four times within the first yeear. Now I am looking for something elde to ride. I've been looking at a Speed Twin 900 Chrome, but the Speed 400 can do what I want for half the money.
I've also been looking at Royal Enfields, mostly the Metero 350 and the Super Meteor 650. The Meteor 350 is half the power for a Speed 400 and the Siper Meteor id $7495, whivh is uo there with better bikes.
So I am lookong hard at the Speed 400 and I plan to see one in person this coming week end. If I can get the right deal, I will own one.
Thanks for this video..Ride safe and enjoy every journey.
Great choice
Kawasaki Vulcan S
I own a 98’ Honda Valkyrie F6C. Find a good one for a few thousand dollars. You won’t regret it.
@@brianmishler9274 Too big and too heavy, I've rode one, they just are not for me.
@@leeinwis Recently I checked out three Triumphs, a Speed 400, Bonneville T100 and Speed Twin 900, None of which suited me. Then aI went to a Royal Enfield dealer and checked out a Mtweor 350 and a Super Metoer 650. The 350 is jhust too small and the 650 rode terribel, I felt every bump and crack in the road. I hope to test drive a Vulcan S within the ext few days. The Vulcan S might be the winner.
OC. Between this bike and the CFMOTO 450nk for twisty backroad commute and motokhana slow speed drills? I am mainly asking because I absolutely love Triumph motorcycles! What's your opinion Chase?
I’m not Chase, but if the question is CF Moto vs Triumph, the answer is Triumph every time.
That's a Duke 390 in disguise. Same with the Huskeys.
@@pbofan The question is CF Moto vs Bajaj. I know Bajaj is more skillfully made than the first time they were in the States, but I'm still suspicious. CFM is a twin with better switchgear that doesn't push the engine to the bleeding edge of its capacity. If the question was Triumph vs CFM, I mean it comes down to whether you want to have a better time riding or parked.
@Some of the parts are swappable like the oil filter. Bajaj seems to build decent bikes so when I heard the Speed was built by them I was Ok with it.
Hi, about the Fum. Can you guys ship it to India?
when does the cfmoto 450ss giveaway end? i'm gonna enter hopefully it can be my first bike
I swear if this is another chase video that flames on a new beginner bike
Will you try the new Husqvarna Svartpilen 401?
Cruising a brand new bike on the rev limiter, with it flashing a warning and complaining the mirrors are vibrating seems a bit off.
Of the dozen or so video reviews of this motorcycle, 75% of them EXPLICITLY noted the LACK of mirror vibration.
The rest didn't mention the mirrors at all. Kinda pause for thought.
Scrambler next !!
OC I really consider getting this or a Vitpilen as my first bike. How would they compare to more sporty bikes like the ninja 500 ?
If you are considering this I would suggest the Kawasaki z500.
Go vitpilen so much fun
13:16 i have not heard that ROGER THAT in AGES.
This video might require an R rating.
In the states, about how much are you guys paying 'out the door' for one of these, after the Stealership fees are factored in?
Over $1,300 (plus tax and license) for them to build it.
I asked on a couple FB groups and price OTD ranges from $6500-$8000. They seem to be going for less in the Northeast. The one guy that paid $8k admitted he wanted the bike so bad, money wasn’t an issue. Said he didn’t even try to haggle. Think he was in Las Vegas. If you exclude him $6500-$7400.
I would definitely go sv650 over a speed 400. A little bit more money for a whole lot more bike imo.
Man, your review seemed way more honest than most/ all that went on that Spanish press launch. They were all tripping over themselves to say only positive things... $$$/ hoping to be invited somewhere else again by Triumph? Appreciate your review most
I am curious about the Scrambler 400
Doing 75 in a 65 😮 having trouble keeping up with traffic… awe gotta love 400 traffic.
The limits on 400 are suggestions at best, unless you’re in Forsyth county. They’ll nail you for sure.
totally jonesing for the scrambler of this...
Anyone looking at a grom should seriously consider this thing. For the price you can't beat the value here! That's a lot of bike for $4999
If you're looking at a grom you should be deported.
I was just quoted 7k OTD in MI.
OC: The only low CC bike I’m looking at is the ZX4RR. That bike seems so fun.
10K
If they had more dealerships and service centers..then maybe..but said dealerships are said to be almost all crooked too so that's concerning , it looks great , has name cred, and is low price tho.
Definitely at the dealers mercy after purchase.
From the thumbnail, I first thought it was Yamaha XSR 900
Can't wait for you to get old and review Wheelchairs - "What's up everybody Chase on two and a half wheels here"
5:32 video finally begins
That bike is so sexy...it drives people to animalistic behavior when they are anywhere near it..... 🙂
It is *not* a "beginner bike" I first started riding bikes at the age of 15, I'm 87 now, so, hardly a beginner! This bike is ideal for people like me who have had large capacity machines, and now want something more manageable.
The Duke 390 looks like it is leaps and bounds ahead of the Speed 400.
I am so tired of seeing the gold forks on so many bikes lol. It ain’t even ohlins! I might buy the Scrambler 400x, and one of the first things I’ll do is get the forks wrapped or painted
hi idk if ull reply but im 19yo rn and i've never driven a bike but yes i do have some money to buy something of 5 grands. ik itll sound dumb but shall i go with the new triumph scram 400x. can i a scrambler to tracks? does the wide handlebar and higher seat height kills the fun of leaning? height wont be an issue as im 6'2. but can u help? are scramblers equally fun? will i be able to lean on it?
That bike microdoses gasoline
Chase the guy in the car was on a first ride also ....
Please do a first ride on the new kawasaki ninja 500 and kawasaki eliminator.
What’s wrong with the tails man everyone gets a tail tidy I like it 🤷🏻♂️
Invalid discord link😅
Speed 400 or CB300R?
Eu conseguiria rebaixara 4cm pelo menos?
Sou muito pequena para por os pés no chão
Just completed 5000 kms on my Speed 400
Dual brake rotors don't increase braking power. They increase heat dissipation. Its only relevant on track or for very heavy/fast motorcycles.
Well that was an interesting review kind of strange though, that practically every other reviewer absolutely fell in love with this motorcycle, including the guy that works on your channel that did his review a month ago. Crazy huh? Well at least we got to have the opportunity to have you try to get us to buy all of the sponsored products from your channel. Good job!
I really wanted to hear how it feels vs competitors. I feel so let down.....
They brake going into a green light because driving scares them and they're hoping to catch a red light where they can just sit there and collect their nerves. At least, that's what I think.
What's with the obsession of TFT screens on a motorcycle? You literally need a gear indicator and a tachometer, maybe a fuel indicator thingy and thats it.
You look heavier than the average guy. Two or three extra notches on the rear preload will sharpen up the steering. 😮
Mi like donuts.
@@leeinwis so do I! 😃. That's why I know.
4:17 you're welcome.
Rode one last week and its a pass. Could be a good city bike but highway use would be miserable.
These came out right after i bought my trident 660. I 100% wouldve gotten this.
Trident are much better man..3 cylinders sound is awesome..
@@abam1roy194 yeah I've been loving it. My first bike ever. It's sounds super nice. Was thinking of putting some pipes on it. But not sure.
I test rode a couple Tridents. Definitely more bike for the money! I’m a returning rider and really needed something I couldn’t go too crazy on until I get my skillz back. hehe I opted for the Speed, becz it’s super light and low. When I trade up it’ll probably be for a Tiger or possible Speed Twin. Hoping this is a good “re-learner” bike before I get the 500lb upgrade. 😂
@@oddsox-sensei the trident is my first bike ever. So far it's great. Just would've prefered to start on something smaller.
There is something really fun about getting a small cc bike for city use and riding the absolute dog shit out of it
Trevor
I get the break in restrictions, but man if I needed the power to GTFO and it's not there, that is terryfying.
Love from India …
I own this bike and I love it
A beginner bike is 49cc.
Sounds like it needs a tooth up on the front sprocket
rubber mounts
I absolutely love this bike but really want the new ninja 500 but this is soooooo inexpensive and a great bike for my back it’s a tough decision
OC we get this bike in India as it is made in India so its for $2850 from Triumph India
Fum trade one habit for another! Magnet included
OC 😂
Too many average motorcycle riders giving reviews
