Triumph Scrambler 400X VS Speed 400 | Which one is for you?

[@MohitGoenka-kk2sl]

I am 5ft 5 inches, i have a speed 400. I bought it before the scram was launched. I have completed now more than 3000km on it including long Highway rides like Pune to Goa (500 kms) in a day. I have never faced 1 issue. I feel this bike can do it all.... In cities it takes over breakers and potholes like a charm, it has lovely suspension and superb brakes. Even on highways this is a great machine, the only issue is a slight bounciness on higher speeds on Highway. I have upgraded from a mt15 and i have been more than satisfied and happy with this machine.

[@bigbearbangalore]

Well done. Best wishes.

Can you tell about the vibrations in your bike? I mean at different speeds.

[@vinoddevrani7749]

I think both r near to perfect bike but da only one thing not justified on this big engine..weak headlight .it must be like projector headlamp as on pulsar N250 or RTR 310 (newly launched).. how can we install that projector in these bikes? Plz mention

[@MohitGoenka-kk2sl]

@@ravneetsandhu871 the vibrations start kicking in only near 5500 rpm at each gears..... If you want a smooth ride shift gear up and it gets butter scotch....so lie that it goes absolutely vibes free till 90kmph... Till 120 there are just small vibes... Easily manageable..... The bike still has performance left you can feel that on 120... But it comes with further more vibrations... You can unlock that as well if you can handle some vibrations... Maybe gloves shoes etc help

i own a speed 400 and my main reason for picking speed over scambler is something silly... it is pillion seat height, although that was the main reason i sold my r15 and bought this so that my mother can seat on my bike but after 2500km+ i can see that the speed it self has everything to do softroads and very very mild offroad... all i need is to add a strong bash plate and there is nothing to worry... i feel like after sometime, I change my tyre with something that can help me in offroad and also change the sprocket with the scambler's one then this will be more suited to me... i believe this is 60-70 percentage of what scambler can do and still is compact

Hello Sir Great content. I loved the scrambler from the day the spy shots were leaked. After waiting for a long time and due to a desperate need of a motorcycle, I owned a Hunter 350. Rode for around 9k kms and sold it off. As you guys rightly mentioned, I was little skeptical of the scrambler though I love it for all the reasons you said; I was ready to compromise for a speed 400 just because of the seat height. When I went to Triumph for a second test ride and was almost ready to book the speed 400, I very hesitantly took a test ride of the scrambler and fell in love instantly. As you said I told myself, I need to skill up to manage the tall seat height and booked my scrambler khaki green. Tomorrow is my bike's delivery!...Excited!! Thanks a lot for your inputs.

[@bigbearbangalore]

Well done! Happy to hear.

Great comparison! Recently I found this channel and it's extremely knowledgeable for bike enthusiasts. I'm 6 ft and I feel scram 400 suited me better.

[@bigbearbangalore]

Welcome aboard! Thanks.

[@the_winged_helm]

Another comparo video done well! Agree with all points. If you got the extra cash and want a more versatile machine, it is better to go for the Scrambler. It also feels bigger (for a big bike feel) due to the long travel suspension and larger front wheel, as some people prefer that after spending on a 400 cc machine. For me, the Speed works well due to the following reasons: 1. Love the timeless roadster design. 2. The diminutive size of the Speed helps to stay under the radar, especially in black like mine. Unless you notice the lights or that big Triumph logo on the tank, it can easily pass off as a 150. I wish they used the same logo as on the Scrambler. 3. Suspension tuning actually feels better on the Speed on the road. 4. My usage is mainly city commutes in packed Bengaluru traffic, with occasional highway runs. The size and nimbleness helps here. 5. Pre 2024 price was actually incredible value for money for the package you get. I need to add a few accessories along the way, the most important of which are the tank pads. Wonder when they'll be in stock 😤. Might also get the double barrel exhaust somewhere down the line. One weird thing I want to point out is the headlight mounts. The aluminium ones on the Speed look so good! The steel ones on the Scrambler, while more durable against falls or bumps, look like PVC pipes with that paint!

[@West2WesternGhats]

Get a lower engine guard, sump guard and back rack as accessories from Triumph(surprisingly economical..!)...In a black speed 400, the aluminum finished backrack along with its side bars look stunning...It costs only 2000/-₹ and the tax along with labour charge will cost an additional 800₹... Further, apart from the looks, it adds to the luggage capacity as well as offering additional safety to pillion rider since there is enough and more area for support if at all the person falls back...Happy cruising fellow rider...👍🏼

[@bigbearbangalore]

Wow! Many thanks for sharing your experience. Great information in your comment to help those undecided. Well done. Cheers!

[@the_winged_helm]

@@bigbearbangalore Flattered! 😊

[@the_winged_helm]

@@West2WesternGhats Thanks for the suggestions! I was planning on the lower engine guard and sump guard as well, subject to availability of course 😁. The luggage rack is also a useful accessory for sure. I'm not sure if I will install a top box, but would be good to have the provision if I decide to.

[@West2WesternGhats]

@@the_winged_helm Rear rack without the top box I meant...it shouldn't be considered as an accessory, but as part of the bike. You see, the rear part of Speed 400 looks oddly out of shape because the mud guard projects far out. When you place the rear rack, the length of the bike increases postero_superiorly, covering the rear mud guard over and above, there by making the bike proportionate and symmetrical... That's why I would like you to accessorise the bike with a back rack... It can be used for tailbags, thus freeing up the back seat for a pillion rider. Personally I feel a topbox doesn't do justice in a retro modern design. Further the bike isnt large enough for a top box...

Sir I tried both the models of Triumph 400, I find the Speed 400 performance at the highest levels it's quick fast to accelerate and matches the Scrambler in Top End, the Scrambler got a linear acceleration takes its own time to build up speed ,it's the same slow sluggish movement in all the gears !

I get the idea of speed being primarily a commuter bike. But I love my speed and use mainly for long rides. Have done 9000+ kms already in 3 months. I still love the bike and have never felt uncomfortable. Only issue is the mild vibration at top end. But since I rarely go past 100 kmph, not a big deal for me. Also I don't go off road. But during the rides, I have ridden on some pretty bad roads including some under construction where I could hear pebbles hitting the mud guard. The bike handled those roads fine. But I don't feel confidence in the tires to handle really tricky situations. Overall good bike for touring.

[@West2WesternGhats]

With stickier tyres,speed offers a pleasant and comfortable ride onroad at higher accelarations. Riding triangle is surprisingly comfortable and the only drawback on long rides is the lack of space and luggage carrying options which can be ironed out commendably by adding triumph's own back rack if you are a solo traveller. With a pillion, space matters..! Always remember, smaller tyres give better comfort on road... Those 17 inch ones are pure bliss...Another issue is the inaccurate fuel guage which hasnt improved even after two software updates. Coupled with the small fuel tank, you need to get your math right while deciding a fuel stop..! Other than these issues, I absolutely love my speed400; with stunning looks and world class built quality which you can only dream of in a motorbike made in our country. Completed nearly 4000kms with two long rides.

Was waiting for this comparison. Great video. Was curious about what the bike looked like after removing the back-seat of the Scrambler & how easy/ difficult they made it. Prefer the look of the Speed as it reminds me of my fave looking motorcycle the Kawasaki Z900 but seems like the Scrambler is more purpose-built. Hate the look of the dual-exhaust though. But congrats on the Scrambler Sir. Was lookin forward to seeing all the accessories you've bought installed (beak, etc) but I guess that'll be the next video or reel. Love the channel.

Even though this comparison is valid and balanced to an extent, for the daily riding folks and occasionally long distance touring folks, the Speed 400 comes around as a approachable, comfortable and much affordable option. The speed vs scram comparison is a bit wrong, & the competitors of the speed belong to the retro cruisers category, amongst which the speed 400 is a no-brainer for anyone who is expecting some performance & good handling 👍 (This comment is w.r.t the fact that most ppl just do touring on regular roads, and a few off road patches, which the speed is more than capable to handle and excel)

I felt this video was overly negative towards what the speed is good at. No mention of the grippier tyres, the sportier stance, the looks that many people prefer over an ADV sort of offroader style, the pillion accessibility. People have done Ladakh on the speed with no issues and 1000s of kilometers of highways easily so calling it a bike that will be meh on highways is just silly. With the growth in your channel I hope you will also learn to see the perspective of different types of riders instead of only catering to the ADV-style community.

[@bigbearbangalore]

Yes, we are ADV riders and tourers and we share from that perspective. Negative or not is a perception. You've shared yours and we've shared ours. No right no wrong, but just a perception. And its an individual choice. Thanks.

I took the test of both speed and scrambler... Braking in scrambler was very weak for the pick up it had... Kinda felt non confident during the ride.. Whereas speed was not the same case.. Break bite was very good... Is this that specific bike issue or the scrambler is designed that way? I saw reviews where they mentioned about sintered pads in speed and organic pads in scrambler.. Can we switch the sintered into scrambler too and get a better breaking? Bosky, need your comment on this... Thanks 😊 This review really helped me to decide between both as I was having confusion choosing between them... Thank you for this very much meaningful review

[@bigbearbangalore]

You can change pads to improve bite.

[@KishorKumar-fg4ib]

@@bigbearbangalore i saw your review on breaking of Scrambler... Looks like you suggest to stay with organic pads to have more stroke available... I'll give it a try with one more test drive. I'm riding Royal Enfield thunderbird from past 8 years. Looking for more fun with comfort and never thought of scrambler as an option untill I saw your reviews on scrambler. Thanks for your feedback sir 😊

I am thinking to change the front sprocket of my scrambler from 14 teeth to 15 teeth of speed. will that affect my lower end torque and add frequent gear ahifting?

[@bigbearbangalore]

Ride the Speed to know more about this sprocket behaviour.

[@harishrao8402]

Hi Big Bear Folks,love your videos…. I plan to buy either the Scrambler 400x or the KTM 390 Adventure. My purpose of usage is mostly for city commuting and some light highway touring. Which would be a better alternative from a long term usage perspective?

[@bigbearbangalore]

Commuting more, touring less = 400X

[@maheshpatel5432]

Thank you both for your in-depth and entertaining reviews. I am in the USA and just learning to ride a motorcyle. I want to purchase a small capacity single cylinder bike. Can you comment (or do a video) on how the Triumph Speed 400 compares to the RE Hunter 350. I can appreciate the recommendation to go with the Triumph Scrambler 400, however, for a beginner rider in the USA where I would be doing back /country roads and suburb driving (with limited highway riding) would you recommend the Speed 400 vs. Hunter 350? I have seen many reviews where the Speed 400 doesn't have the visceral experience /joy that the Hunter 350 does. Thank you.

[@bigbearbangalore]

Quite different they are in character. You'll need to them to find our what tickles you more. When it comes to engine performance, the 400s outclass the Hunter.

[@vikaskundbi9110]

A video on scrambler 400x vs Vstrom 250 pls

[@bigbearbangalore]

Noted

[@vineethmyadam3730]

Hello Bosky I am confused buying between speed 400 or bullet 350 could you help me with any suggestions???

[@bigbearbangalore]

They are quite different. Test ride and choose.

[@rvaidy51]

Baski, A research project for you...i heard experts say that brakes on scrambler 400x is same as Duke 390 / KTM ADV 390. Now...Will the spoke wheels of KTM 390 Adv FIT triumph 400X? Possible to research and make a video? This will make 400X more valuable offroad than himi 450.!! A fan, and keep posting valuable info

[@bigbearbangalore]

Brakes can be the same. Like tyres, brakes are also standardised to a large extent in the interest of cost control. While anything is possible I don't think the wheels are a direct fit. And Triumph have officially stated that the alloys on the Scrambler are tougher than regular alloys and are good enough for non-professional off-roading. And if there is still a concern, just carry a spare tube just in case of any rim damage.

[@RaviGunasekaran-i5r]

I test drove both speed and scrambler. I liked the scrambler over speed 400. But I have narrow shoulders, and 900mm wide handle bar, got me concerned about effect on my shoulders or arms in Bangalore city driving and navigating short turns like u-turn. The test drive was short duration, so I could not fully analyse it. I ride Yamaha FZS. Could you please share your thoughts about wide handlebar posture?

[@bigbearbangalore]

Wide bars = easier to operate. You can cut an inch off at either end to narrow it but that could mean no bar end weights.

[@sandesh9225]

Please do not limit your reviews to adv bikes we would love to know your opinions on husquis and other bikes too!

[@bigbearbangalore]

We review what we know better hence Adv only. And when opportunity permits yes will also check other vehicles. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@sagarbaul7863]

Today i have done test ride of scram 400x, i feel it is better than the speed but only issue is of service network as in Delhi only 2 service centers are operational and if i shift to tier 2 city it will be even bigger problem for service of this bikes.😅

[@bigbearbangalore]

Yes that is a problem for now. Things may change in a year or so with more outlets.

[@arijitmandal5333]

Which is better bike to ride with pillion and luggage?? Moveover which bike is even better other than this two bikes in 3 lakhs budget??

[@bigbearbangalore]

Pillion comfort is average on both. And these are not great tourers. Himalayan is a proper tourer.

[@applekiran]

cool & best review i feel like classical review...🥰

[@bigbearbangalore]

Glad you liked it. Thanks.

[@vasanthVamohan]

Hello Bosky, What's your pick for touring among Svartpilen 401, (or Vitpilen 250 2024), Scrambler 400X, Himalayan 450 and KTM Adventure 390/250 (or KTM Duke 390/250)? Thanks so much.

[@bigbearbangalore]

Touring = H450

[@vasanthVamohan]

@@bigbearbangalore Thanks for the response.

[@kautilya.n]

does scrambler 400x feels heavier than speed 400 in city while maneuvering in traffic. i want to get scrambler 400x if it doesn't make difference

[@bigbearbangalore]

Try it to know if it is so.

[@sanketjain9320]

Dont think the final gearing at the wheel is different, since scrambler also has a bigger tyre that compensates. Did you check the RPM at say 80/100kph on both the bikes?

[@bigbearbangalore]

The bigger tyre does not offset the sprocketing change.

[@ArdentSoul-n5i]

What if my only usage is for the Bangalore city traffic? Should i go for speed then? I hardly take one or two long trips in a yr.

[@bigbearbangalore]

Yes you may. Test ride to know more.

[@sayantanbardhan7076]

Sir please post a tutorial as to how we can adjust the rear suspension in the Scrambler 400X,there are barely any useful videos on youtube😊

[@bigbearbangalore]

Will check on this. It needs a tool to up or down the preload. That's the only adjustment.

[@sayantanbardhan7076]

@@bigbearbangalore Yes sir And according to the manual the tool is provided in the tool packet provided under the seat,but the procedure isn't really clear

[@domi9577]

I want one of these but one that also has better touring ability. So I'll wait for the Tiger 400

[@bigbearbangalore]

👍

[@Gourab6-d2h]

Sir which one should I buy metror 350 aurora or trumph 400x for long ride and less maintenance for long term... this is my first bike suggest something that give me memory....

[@bigbearbangalore]

Motorcycle is a tool in the journey. Memories can be made in a scooter too. Test ride and bit the one that you enjoy more. They are quite different machines.
