When I bought the 390 ADV, I never knew it looked big without accessories. Only after riding it and seeing the heads turn did I realize I bought a baby beast. For me, the 400 to 600 cc segment hits a sweet spot in India. It gives the best of both worlds: commuting and touring. Adventure doesn't just mean off-roading. One reason I might probably even consider buying the 2024 KTM 390 ADV is if they manage to port all the electronics from the 890 platform.
Keerthi Triumph screwed it completely for me in Bangalore, and I ended up buying KTM 390ADV. I do not regret it a bit, though it came at a cost. I would have waited for 400X but thought that the dealership was a problem and it would continue to haunt me post-buying. Trust me, Triumph India is not really concerned about us "customers". I cancelled my booking on 4th Sep (Speed 400) and am still waiting for the refund money. They just don't pick up calls nor revert to emails. Nice review.
India has more states than triumph has dealership 😂.. Apart from triumph badge and looks, ktm adv 250 and 390 is better adv bike... Huge difference in scrambler and offroad adv... A scrambler is basically for on-road and muddy road.... Looking for offroad adv? Go for himalayan 450/411 and ktm 250/390 any day... Polarising opinion, RE scram 411 is better offroader than triumph 400x...yes engine is far ahead but it's just raised speed 400...
Wait hasn't triumph opened like 3 to 4 showrooms in Bangalore now? I know that Keerthi triumph is the worst outlet for Triumph to ever exist, but now the newer showrooms are not connected to Keerthi. Guess you didn't want to wait for the showooms to open up to buy a bike.
@@lenonmelricdsouza9037 Well, not exactly. I booked on 5th Jul and was eligible for a 10 K discount. I even tried to shift my booking from Keerthi to Khivraj, E City, but neither Keerthi, Khivraj or Triumph showed any interest. People at Keerthi do not listen to your point. They were ready to deliver new bikes (booking) earlier than mine, and that pissed me off. They were not doing a favour to anyone, at least not to me. In the end, it is their loss. It may not be of Keerthi, but surely for Triumph.
@@subashchristopher They might be, but frankly speaking. I was offered complete assistance by Gaurav and Kevin from Khivraj, E City, and later, they stopped picking up my calls. I genuinely tried all possible ways, but they were not interested. Tripumh customer care email ID is a joke. They do not respond. JUST DON'T RESPOND AT ALL.
I feel that, in future the bike manufacturers should go the Ducati Hypermotard way where the bike is light weight, aggressive power delivery, long travel soft suspension setup and combination of dirt bike and a naked bike cycle parts. That's the one which will be a winner here in India.
This is the first video I have watched that pointed out the Triumph coolant bottle was under the sump! How stupid, unless that sump guard is titanium. Well done for pointing out the obvious.
I predict that if the Speed 400 and 400x are even moderately successful, Triumph will add more models that use this engine. A cruiser to the street side of the equation and an Adv model on the dirt side. Anyone interested in a Tiger Cub 400?
I was looking at the Speed 400 but I will be buying the Duke 390 instead. For 2024 it’s a really great bike. I have a 15 mile transit to work. With lots of mountain twisties. For off-road I will get a Honda CRF300L.
Ktm is a proven package. A bit out there styling. The triumph looks a thousand times more attractive. I'm getting old i guess. Both good bikes. 😊 India is the place to be for motorbikes today 😊
Nice vlog bro, all the points u covered are well sorted out. Thinking to buy one 390X😅 after seeing ur vlog , I already own a Z900 and Interceptor 650. Now it’s the time to get an adv bike,
Waited long for this scrambler and RE 452 himalayan....but ended up with ktm adv 390x....feel very comfortable and enjoying the highway rides...no regrets
Anchor bro, considering you are bike reviewer, i would suggest you to shred some kilos as it will allow you to be more agile. BTW i follow you on IG and YT, Great going. Keep Shining.
The triumph is ok up to 100 after that it’s really not comfy engine feels stressed though it can still do higher speed while the ktm is crazy happy even at 140, no stress, which make a much better touring machine. Also triumph front suspension front bottoms out way to fast for rough terrain ktm is better there too.
Yup as ktm has 170mm travel and triumph has 150mm, 20mm more travel really helps in situations. I have a feeling that "if" they launch tiger 400 that would surely have 170mm of travel. As of now tiger 900 GT and scrambler 1200X too got 170mm of travel.
Great review. As both bikes are made by Bajaj and both have 19/17 wheels, can the KTM wire spoked wheels be put on the Triumph Scrambler 400x? The rear chain drives are on different sides of the bikes but this shouldn't matter. Thanks
Don’t play with the stock setup of the wheel size and the break modification, u will never end up with the result and comfort which u r looking out of that mod. Regarding the fuel optimisation , exhaust , air-filter, u can play and settle down but not with the wheels.
Hi bro. I’m 6 ft 1” tall rider and l own an Interceptor. Which would be a better bike to upgrade ? The ergonomics and the seating comfort are not comfortable and the suspensions are very average. Can you suggest a good bike that doesn’t cost a fortune 😝

My choice between the 2 would be based on price, suspension, luggage carrying capacity (or at least luggage accessory options). Or perhaps the liquid cooled Royal Enfiled 450 Himalayan might be the better choice?
Obviously this is an opinion, but I think the KTM is so butt ugly. And it comes in one color scheme?!!! I'm upgrading from the RE Scram 41a to the 400X in January.

Being a KTM ADV owner myself, if you want to do "hard core off roading" then XPulse should be your bike. Its light, nimble and all off roaders love it. But I agree with the comparison summary.

That coolant below the engine made me not get the scrambler , i think after every tough ride Triumph makes money with that
Same vibes in both bikes at highway speeds?
100-130kmph?
Highway speeds vibration is the question
If you want to make comparisons video then Triumph scramble 400x and KTM adv 390x is more appropriate.
