    Outstanding, the first UK review I’ve seen on utube what a cracking bike. I rode numerous Japanese 400s back in the 80s with similar power output. I recall riding two up with camping gear on a Honda 400 four Newcastle to Cornwall cruising at 70 no problem. Triumph have a winner here and should sell bucket loads 👍

      @@ontheroadadventure, yes, most likely. I'm getting a bit long in the tooth, and the missus doesn't really ride with me anymore, so I'm looking to downsize from my Indian Roadmaster. I grew up on small bikes like this, e.g., a Yamaha XT500, so it'll be like revisiting my misspent youth. I'll take a look at the Himalayan 452, and maybe I'll wait long enough to check out the much rumored 2025 KTM 390 Adventure, too. But I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Triumphs, ever since I had an old TR6 back in the day, complete with the old right-side shifter. The mirrors on that bike buzzed at _idle,_ and it'd loosen your fillings at speed. These modern Hinckley-era Triumphs are ever so much more civilized! 😉

    Nice one! Been riding mine for just over a month back here in India. Apparently, for the first 1000 kilometers, the RPM stays locked at just below 6000. I didn't know that until much later, and even thought to myself sadly that I'd have to get used to this. But, as soon as I crossed 1000 kms, the RPM limiter unlocked itself and she really showed me her true colours! Best of luck mate, she's a keeper!

    Great video mate. Looks a fantastic bike.. The small bike market has taken off. Not everyone can cope with larger machines, that are tall and heavy.. And these fit the bill. It allows older riders to continue riding longer, our ladies and smaller men to take up biking.. It's a large market so Triumph have made a wise decision.. Price wise some 125s are over the 4k mark, so 5.7 for a 400 isn't bad..

      Bigger bikes are also just more expensive...biking should be cheaper than driving a car and it really isn't even with modern "mid size" bikes. Smaller bikes play to the overall strength of biking, I'm hoping the Japanese manufacturers start putting out some quality small-mid size bikes in response.

    This is really bizarre reasoning. Triumph ARE a British company, they may be made in India, but to a Triumph design not Triumph adding their name to something. You wouldn't suggest that Apple smartphones are just badge engineering.... they are designed by Apple and built in someone else's factory in China.

    Thanks for posting this review. I'm an old guy (62) and have been looking to downsize my 800 xcx. I've had motorcycles, most of my life, and currently looking at this bike and a KTM 390 adventure. Both are great for what I'm looking for, weight, maintenance, and reliability. I guess I just need to test ride both and to make a decision. But the Triumph has that "old school" style that catches my eye.

      Hi Timmy, I had the KTM 890 Adventure, Lasted me 10 days before the Poor Build quality and reliability issues had me quit on it. I personally would be taking the Triumph, which really is a fantastic bike. Have you taken each for a test yet?

    • @timmy24540

      @ontheroadadventure Thanks for the reply, I've heard about problems with the 890. I currently have a 2018 690r, and prior to that, I had a 530exc. Both are great bikes, but they had to be "tuned" for the better.
      Had many other brands over the years as well, but I must say the 800 has been a "gem", only things I've done were bags, lights and little odds and ends with no problems with performance. I've been leaning to the Triumph anyway, I'm going to try and test ride one next week, hopefully. The only downside is that it's over an hour drive on the Southern California freeways to do that. I'll take your advice and try one out. Once again, thanks for the input 👍.

    A simple honest and useful review on roads I recognise 👏👏. Thank you. I saw this bike yesterday and was very impressed , it didn’t feel small, looked nicely finished and lacking in ‘trinkety bling’. Would seem ideal for what we call “roads” in Devon, it’s a shame the cat precludes a centre stand. It will be interesting to see how the finish fares though winter. I’ll be keen to see if Royal Enfield and even BSA try to emulate this style and size. TBH it’s probably all the bike anyone ‘needs’ in the real world.

    Ive got a 190 kg Royal Enfield Meteor 350 & I use that off road. It tracks beautiful & is well balanced off road even with the standard Ceat Tyres. The Triumph weigh's 179 kg wet with much better suspension than my Meteor & obviously more ground clearance & Metzler dual purpose tyres so I'd say with that low weight the Triumph with it's relatively small size would be fabulous off road. It's obviously not an Enduro bike or Moto X bike but it will adventure tour. I've done long distance on my Meteor 350 no problem so I'd expect the Triumph with the extra dispacement & much more HP to be more than capable riding to your nearest trail or taking longer journeys off road adventure riding. I don't think the 19" front wheel is a disadvantage as I think it helps give you better visibility of what is directly in front of you whereas a 21" front wheel with screen etc tends to put you higher at the front & more removed from what you are about to run into or over. It's also with it's shorter wheelbase & lighter weight more nimble than most others in the class apart from the BMW G310GS & KTM 390. KTM though has a much taller seat height. The Triumph also seems to produce better torque across the rev range.

I am a 5.6 tall, 30” inseam, 59 years old, in a fair shape folk. I was planning to get a Triumph Street Scrambler 900 as my second bike. This was until I discovered that there was this scrambler 400x. I have a BMW 750GS that I use mainly for long distance travel. Thus, the second bike is planned for urban commuting and occasional excursions to the countryside with mild offroad. Assuming that money won´t be a factor to consider in my decision, given the differences between these two bikes, which one would you think will be a better choice in my case? and why? Something to notice, the scrambler 400x is planned to arrive into my country on June, so I can not take a driving test to compare. I will appreciate very much any suggestions.

    I really don't understand, why everybody is comparing this Triumph with the RE Himalayan. These are two completely different bikes. The RE (incl. the Scram version) is an adventure bike, even more an off roader, whilst the Triumph is a scrambler, mainly built for sealed roads and occasional rides on easy to ride unpaved roads. The only simililatity between the Triumph 400 Scrambler and the Himalayan might be the price.
    Otherwise this little Triumph is much more comparable to the
    the Honda CL500 scrambler.

    It's a more value for money here, infact most bikes are value for money except those high end large capacity motorcycles with 800cc to 1300cc and those not manufactured here but mostly imported, with the taxes and other charges included in the price, they cost as much as they do outside India.

    I bet there's a long waiting list 😢 anybody know what availability is?

      I believe it’s a month or two maybe? I know they were being preordered before they even hit the show rooms
