Triumph Speed 400 on-road prices revealed - www.autocarindia.com/bike-news/triumph-speed-400-on-road-prices-revealed-428746
But, there is a significance difference between ex-showroom and on-road. Is it justifies?
@@Manimal99lol.. Triumph isnt charging that "SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE".. that's mandatory insurance and road tax 🥲
@@OmFreeRadical But, I expect that between 2.60-2.70 on road
Your reviewer height must be normal. He's tall. Can't imagine myself
Significant differences is upto 15 lakhs for a Toyota fortuner … i think every company will take this trend and people will realize how we overpay taxes
Autocar India spoke the truth which has been lingering in most people's mind - "This Triumph is for riders who want KTM levels of power, but don't want to associate with it's rowdy image" 🤣 Well said. Great review as usual.
Yes we want a mature look to our bikes which represents the personality and emotions you have. 🗿
Would have put this same reply if you hadn't. 💯💯💯
You mean chhapri image
This line is toooo good and correct
Now ntorq has become worse as low level chapris are using ntorq
He's one of the best reviewers on the planet. Hope autocar is paying him well! 😊
Everyone works for money only bro😂
Agreed. Especially on how engine feel. He is the best.
All Triumph needs to work is on the delarship expansion, better after sales and maintenance costs.. Triumph already has a potential winner on their cards 👍💯
More than 100 showrooms are going to be opened in next 1 year with the help of bajaj
After sales is a hit bro. 16k KM or 1 year interval is good for both customers and dealers too.
Kudos to Bajaj for making this amazing bike!!
If Triumph is able to convince customers that it’s a real triumph, it’ll sell like hotcakes.
Or viceversa.. it'll sell in decent numbers.. people see them on road & realize that's indeed a real Triumph.. Repeat
The last time Rishaad seemed this excited and satisfied was when he rode the Honda CB300R. But unlike that review, this one has a happy ending.
seen many are spreading negative comments saying its not a triumph. what do you expect from a " 2.8 LACK "on road bike a triumph speed 900 or t100? comparing it to other bikes in its segment it has much better fit and finish, different engine ( not dominar 400 or duke 390 ) and frame. even if its a bajaj and not triumph the bike is remarkable for price
Your’s and Sagar’s are the reviews I always eagerly wait for whenever a new machine arrives, because you guys are brutally honest and are very bad at hiding your emotions 😅. Coming back to speed 400, It now sets a new benchmark for this segment and makes it all the more necessary and stressful for RE to deliver with the new Himalayan 450. If they underdeliver with the upcoming Himalayan then it would be too tough to get back into the game. Keep riding safe ❤👍

@@rohitjain3210 painter is overrated shumi and Karthikeyan singhe are way ahead
Painter is shitshow and shumi is okay
many people are calling this bike just a bajaj with triumph logo which is not true. from engine to frame to the body fit and finish its a triumph. yes the clutch and brake levers are from bajaj but thats about it. you cant expect a triumph twin 900 or other big bike from triumph for the price. great bike 👍. on road price is 2.8L
You know the reason why they are saying like that they are owners of something popular 😂😂
Bajaj had a big role in the design and engineering of these bikes. These are not pure Triumph bikes but jointly developed by the partners.
Cuz Bajaj is just good in terms of design and pricing,engine and build quality is shit af. So people refuse to buy this bike even if it's triumph. If Triumph get collaboration with TVS still people go for this bike more. End of the day 2.7lac on road I blindly go for CB350RS honda. Any day it's reliability, engine refinement have no replacement in the price segment ❤
@@twistednemo true.
@@NeonNex200 fit and finish of this bike is very good like other big triumphs which was pointed out in every review. cb350 is relaxed cruiser and this is a modern roadster. both are great bikes for different audience
Triumph never disappoints us with the design (subjective), quality, fit and finish and exhaust sound ❤
Is it so have u ever tried tiger 660 the best shit u can buy right now in India other models are good though I agree
Do you have any triumph bike 🏍
@@VICKY-wy5wh😂
@@MrTransporter5 i own ninja 1000 I ride with many triumph owners who own all from tiger 660 to triumph rocket 3 GT all are top notch finish but tiger 660 is definitely not
And now this time with the price
10:47 Rowdy means Chhapri bro 😂
Excellent Review.Thank you Autocar India.All the best Triumph 400 💜💜
The Classic has an air cooled engine that can do 100 kmph max vibe free, average brakes that fade away before 10K kms, no electronics or slipper clutch and average build quality yet charging over 2 lacs. There's a reason why I don't think REs are the cheapest in this class but fanboys will rip you apart
Excellent review. Thank you! I'm really interested in this bike, as a smaller alternative to the machines I already own. At just over 6ft I was concerned about its size and performance but all looks good.
I really like yours and sarges video. Brutal honesty and really precise reviews, no extra dramas.
Looking forward to a comprehensive comparison test.
My favorite Rishabh is back and my mood to watch review is back ❤❤❤❤
Classics, Meteors, Hunters, Ronins are all in deep trouble. Well done Bajaj and Triumph, the bike will sell like hot cakes.
Not really bcz of the price
@@IroxGamer bro in the same range of other 400cc classic bike it has got almost double the power
I am telling about Ronin and Hunter the price is low compared to this@@theviper3479
Is there any chance that we get after-market exhausts for these Triumph 400s bike in future? To give bit more bass, etc.
I own 3 motorcycles currently (N1K SX, Classic Reborn & 390 ADV, however the Triumph 400 took me by fancy and I booked a blue 🔵 one last month itself...
How do you think this one would complement my garage or line up... Given that I have Classic Reborn and 390 ADV.
What is your take?
Great review. Especially on the suspension performance. Keep it up. 👍🏼
Great review! Learned everything I needed to know about the bike!
Quality review as usual 👍🏼👍🏼
Rishad is one of very few reviewer who is upto the point and reviews bike as they should be reviewed 🤌
Very detailed and gave us a lot of information... Thank you
Watching this Video after owning and riding the bike for almost a month and I can say that, Rishaad has covered almost everything about the bike in this video.
Your Videos are really helpful for the potential buyers.
More power to you, Rishaad!
I have purchased Triumph Speed 400 on 18th October. On 28th October I send my bike to service center by towing . Now by the service center bike is not starting because of engine issue. More than one week it is still in service center not solution yet. What to do I am not sure.
A very well articulated review👍
The triumph 400 and 400s scrambler bike has good look and style is stunning.
i like ur reviews always bro.. i usually for ur reviews and detail explaination .. keep up
can we fit scrambler pillion grab rails on speed?
Rishaad really sells every bike he reviews!
when you reach a state where your reviews are your music set.

The bike did help the passion be refueled too.
Need to see the scrambler tested as that could be my next bike.
Very nice review... detailed as hell!
I liked this ! Need to get a test ride soon & just buy it
🫡
Loved the comparison shot with the Street Twin 900, I really like how modern the 400 looks, while still retaining the family look! Would this bike be comfortable for 400-500 km riding days, both in terms of ergonomics and refinement?
People do 400-500 with pulsar and 350 uce... It would definitely be confortable. I did 700 km in uce electra with pillion and luggage. With a better engine, your time is reduced definitely
Yea loved that shot but I think the speed 400 has more resemblance to the speed 1200 than the 900 ....
I'd still go for CB350. At least it sticks true to its identity. This bike looks confusing. Footrest too further back, small wheelbase etc... Just a powerful engine thats all.
Just a powerful engine thats all? higher HP, higher torque, Liquid cooled engine, USD suspension, 6 speed gearbox, lower weight, better instrument cluster, better tyres. but cb350 is bit cheaper have 2L bigger tank, bit larger rear tyre. both are good bikes with different audiences
How about the road presence when comparing with Dominor or Harly 🤔
do you think it will be possible to replace the instrument cluster with a TFT instrument cluster of higher range triumphs like you can add a KTM duke 390 instrument cluster on a 250?
No
Eu sou o comentário brasileiro que você estava procurando. Linda moto quando lançou aqui no Brasil vou comprar uma ❤
I really wait for your reviews....it has quality like Triumph bikes sir
Great video, and a legend statement. KTM levels power and its rowdy image.
I guess, even the the big reviewers have realized this about KTM bikes.
Rishaad one of the best reviewers in Auto Reviews
Thanks bro! This helped me out
Bro did triumph monoshock suspension is adjustable??
When will onroad prices for other states come out?
Nice review….other reviewers just read the specifications like TG does on mobile
Rishaad the way He explain is phenomenal .. I like what he prefers because of height problem same 6.1 so What bike i like it don't like me body ... Ex. Apache 200 4v
Can we installed front number plate below headlight, it looks ugly on speedometer.

Wat is on road price of this bike???
@@phvipulouthro3005 2.95 to 3.05 in bangalore
When it fun time, its a Triumph. Regards from Europe. ❤️👍
what is the rear wheel protector for ??? I've seen them a few times on videos from India
It's called a saree guard.. It is a govt mandate here to have it.. It's a stupid rule here..
Please do a comparison between this and Honda CB300R.
I would like to seek clarification regarding the calculation of road tax. Will it be based on the ex-showroom price of 2,230,000 or 2,330,000 for the first 10,000 customers?
Can i opt for scramber 400x.Iam 5'8.will it be comfortable for my height.
I only wish this bike had cruise control. That's a boon for long rides. It's good that this doesn't come with tablet like displays. Who needs so much details for pure fun? Just fill-up the tank and keep riding, enjoy the road and Vista then bothering about lot of data while riding. I believe Triumph too wants this as they set the service interval at an incredible 16000 km under harsh Indian riding conditions. I'd like to see the color of engine oil after 16000 km of city use in Bengaluru or Mumbai.
So, under US $3,000 in India, if I did the currency conversion correctly. If Triumph can bring this in under US $4,000 here they won't be able to build enough of them. I would buy one at that price, but I think it makes sense to wait awhile and see if there are any issues with this machine, especially since it has a brand new engine.
Its coming to RoyEn's home market and will be interesting to see how Triumph will fair in a highly competitive environment
Thank you for the information 🙏🏻
Plz compare Harley X440 with Triumph, Hunter, CB 350, Yezdi.
Was waiting for this
Sir which one is a better machine in respect of splash and smoothness less vibration at lower and higher speed revs fast between honda cb 300 r and speed 400
Does this bike has coolant leakage issue? I have heard from lot of people that they are facing this issue
How long are the tyres expected to last before they need to be changed? Do they need to be changed at every service interval?
16 - 18k every service
18-20K kms..
Amazing Review.....
Hinckley designed and Bajaj built. No problem there. Biggest challenge for them is RE who've had a massive head start in this segment and the price. Good luck both companies.
Saludo desde Brasil Piauí! Great video hermanoteu
Mega comparo in the works, is it? The REs, Speed 400, Harley, the Honda... what else, the Dominar?
What location is this?
Showroom delhi or ncr ??
One of the best review
Is it suitable for long drive like hyd to banglore I mean comfortable like yezdi adventure and meteor350
Very easily..
Love your reviews. Please review the new scrambler 400 x next.
I want to repaint my Triumph Speed 400. Can you suggest me some unique colors seen in expensive bikes that are suitable for this bike? Please reply!
The price is right on these. A sharp looking bike. I loke the retro standard style, I feel like they really nailed it with this bike.
Rishaad Youuu Beauty!
Can we change booking preference from carnival red to caspian blue ?
Check with the dealer
Wil the 400x scrambler review will come when the bike will launch itself or will it come earlier
Booked myself one and lucky to get first 10k discount. Eagerly waiting for first triumph bike. Is the bar end mirror are standard or as an accessory?
What is the onroad price and what is the location so that we can get to know the area wise onroad prices
Barend mirror is 😊an accessory
Same here. On road price is 2.67 here in Kolkata
@@itsmeee7364 Bar ends are standard on the Speed 400.
1 year or 16000 kms per service will be a mega hit. people like me who has work from home job and does need to go out once in a while.
Please include the CB300R in the comparison
Beautiful bike, better than the latest harley in the same category. 👌
it is a very solid bike...i really want to ride it
Nice video. Nice bike for the people. ❤
Colour correction looks a bit weird. Seems like there is a layer on top which is warm and dusty.
It should make the video more rich in terms of colour and not flatter. Contrast is missing.
The only thing stopping me from buying this is the non-existent service network
It is gives only essential features. I see for Indians this is gift.
Pls include honda cb 300r while comparing this beauty with others... Thank u🎉
Good bike. Great review.
0:24 Come on guys who thought this music is good 😮
Great Review. May I ask how tall you are?
In terms of overall refinement... which is better..dominar or speed or hunter?
Speed manufacture by Triumph and you know Triumph history ?
They made their first bike in 1883 and of 300cc
Its 150 years of experience of Triumph to make bikes
Roar on the roads
Speed easily..
Looks promising👍
What’s your height ? The bike looks small when you ride it.
Best review. #Triumph has done some very clever steps with #BajajAuto . Good job.
What octane fuel is recommended for the new 400's?
93
What will be the maintenance cost in these motorcycles? And can they be serviced at any Bajaj service center?
Triumph will service it.. It's an annual service & per service cost will be more than RE/ KTM by some margin..
1000 less at last was so confidently said that I had to hear 3 times to be sure it’s 1000 not 10000 😅
Nice review and location and video quality superb
When are you guys going to get harley x440 for road test?
