Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 v Triumph Scrambler 400 X | Which is the ultimate do-it-all? | evo India

The Royal Enfield Himalayan and the Triumph Scrambler 400 X are both exceptional motorcycles that are extremely capable both on and off-road. But both bikes take a slightly different approach to the way they ride. With similar performance figures, what separates the two is the chassis setup. The Triumph Scrambler 400 X uses a 19-inch front wheel while the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 uses a more off-road focused 21-inch front wheel. Both are fairly feature packed and are styled very well for the class of bike they belong to. Which one should you be getting though? To answer that ultimate question, Karan Ramgopal takes both bikes for a ride in different types of terrain to tell you which one deserves your hard earned money.

Which one are you picking? The Himalayan 450 or the Scrambler 400 X?

[@Ashes-9]

Himalayan 450 as the whole package will make you feel satisfied but Triumph will always make you want more. More size, more offroad capability, more equipment. A premium RE is much better than a base Triumph. To be honest I would rather pick a bajaj made by RE rather than a Triumph made by Bajaj😂

[@twowheeledparadox]

​@@Ashes-9 I'd get the Himalayan simply for the off road setup.

[@srikantajagadeesh]

With RE's Pathetic half baked quality. had to sell my Himalyan 2020 BS6 in matter of 15K on ODO. Replaced Battery, Speedometer, Suspension ....I'm afraid to put my money once again to RE. Lets see How triumph catch on long run ..before i put my money on Triumph

[@twowheeledparadox]

@@srikantajagadeesh Yeah, RE's own manufacturing quality is decent but the OEMs need a tighter reign.

[@samuelkeerthikumar9540]

I own a Scram 400 X and practically this one is the best. I had my hand on the new 450 himalayan and i did not feel happy regarding the bike even tho both of them come from very diff genre. Triumph's build quality is top notch than RE. Now i'm a happy Scrambler 400 X owner.

[@naveenbattula]

scrambler 400x is not even comparable to himalayan IMO, yes it's better in city but that's about it, suspension, breaks, off roading, ground clearance, the better screen, highway crusing himalayan is way way better, especially the suspension it's not even close in my opinion

[@maneckkatrak1379]

For those that are looking for quality Triumph > RE ... For the REH, It's just the "SUV" looks that gives the rider a perception of riding a bigger bike ... Nit realising the extra weight and bulk is only useful on the most crazy off roads. For all else Scrambler is better.

[@coolfriend693]

Which one has more vibrations abo 110kmph speed?

[@tapas1505]

You are lying. I own a Speed 400 which is similar to Scrambler X , but just couple of days ago I test rode Himalayan 452, and I would say Himalayan 452 is amazing. Overall built quality, driving dynamics and built quality is better than Speed/Scrambler. I wish to sell my Speed just to get a Himalayan now.

[@simonrai6087]

Scrambler 400 is more practical it looks nice it has all necessary features it has nice build quality it has traction control it is good for city use it is 11 kg lighter it has tubeless alloy wheels it is triumph not royal Enfield it has better finish triumph also have better low end torque and mid it has better service quality and main thing it is cheaper than himalayan base model

[@deekshithvb9460]

Scrambler 400 has much smoother engine and the initial punch is better.. bulid quality is miles ahead of himalayan and offere traction control. However if u r looking for a machine thats thoroughbred for offroading himalayan is the one to go for and it has a vast service network. U can walk into any of these two showrooms and be a happy customer after all

[@shadabsarwar9815]

Scrambler 400x

[@evoIndia]

That's a good choice, but do let us know what made you pick the 400 X.

[@009wolborg]

I test drove both, i enjoyed both equally but chose Scrambler for the reasons below.. 1. Scram was lighter compared to RE-H. 2. Scram was cheaper, I can use the money i saved on riding gear, trips, accessories. 3. RE-H had a 4 month waiting period, while i got same day delivery for the scrambler (Jan 1st 2024). 4. Scrambler has tubeless tyres and RE-H has tube tyres. 5. Im a 35 year old boring uncle, so mostly family trips on 4 wheels..got the bike for occasional weekend rides..

I’m looking to buy my first bike and I’m deciding between these two. My use is mostly city and occasional highway touring. Design, handling and quality wise I’m leaning toward the Triumph but it looks a tad small on me given my large frame. Given my use, are there any advantages of the Himalayan over the Scrambler? Also if anyone could share what the expected maintenance costs could be for both bikes

[@ShadowVonChadwick]

Good review among many. I appreciated the use of English. Cheers from downunder.

[@Vvktn]

With the feature set of the Himalayan, and hopefully a compact form factor, the Scram 452 is going to be the motorcycle to watch out for.

[@evoIndia]

The updated Scram might be really interesting if it's based on the new platform. Can't wait to see what Royal Enfield has planned.

[@navaneeth6660]

Scrambler 400x makes more sense.

[@_shreyash_anand]

How so?

[@Zilla010]

In what way? atleast elaborate lol

[@navaneeth6660]

@@Zilla010 IMO, If you want a pure offroad bike Himalayan is the way to go. But 400x is more practical in day to day usage,tubeless tyres, size advantage, city driving abilities, maneuvering abilities, also we can do mild off roading with it. 400x is my pick. Also RE service is the worst, that's one of the main reason for me to pick 400x.

[@wokeydokey6885]

The answer to the questions you guys are asking is quite easy to answer if you watched the video. The triumph is lighter, more refined, smaller, better build quality and has about the same power figures while being considerably cheaper than the Himalayan on-road. All of this aids a lot in day to day usage

[@evoIndia]

For a more urban riding, it definitely makes a lot of sense.

[@twowheeledparadox]

Himalayan 450, hands down, simply because I would want to go off road. I have ridden off road with 150 mm suspension travel and it's not enough. The 21" front rim also helps immensely. It's worth the 20k over the 400X.

[@fernando_k5257]

Great video. I'm from Brazil, 66 years old and presently I don't have any motorcycle (In the 70's I had a Honda CB200, and when I sold it, I didn't have opportunity of buying another), and now I am trying to choose a proper one mainly for dirty road rides, etc. In our present days here is being sold the old model of Himalayan at good prices, but after watching some videos I think I will wait for the new model (Himalayan 450). Hope it will be sold at a good price (good for the buyer, of course!).

[@arpansengupta9339]

Always choose lighter, nimble bikes. At we age, it becomes a pain to use 200 kg bike. Also you are not riding for a long time.

[@svaralen]

[@naveenbattula]

Himalayan all the way, I just love the looks of it first and suspension is fantastic, if all i wanted was something comfortable for city i would've just bought an active and be done with it. We are buying these bikes not for practicality but because we want them, and in that scenario himalayan seems much better atleast for me

[@adityast-hy8oo]

Well said.

[@amischieff]

Bro. If you love to ride.... How can you like an activa for the city.... I do agree that the Himalayan excels at real off roads which only 0. 1% of us really do.

[@naveenbattula]

@@amischieff an active is better in the city than any 400cc bike i've tried, its so much more practical and easy to use and manuverable as well, again as i said in my initial comment, practicality isn't really what we are looking for when buying a 40hp bike in india and even in the city 400x vs 450 himalayan isn't as big as the reviews are portraying do a test ride once to see. but the suspension and off road is a very very big difference between them, rode it in shit roads of bangalore and the suspension of himalayan is unbelievable you go through a pot hole and you feel like you just over a slight bump

I have taken h450 rental 400x rental and I rode in city traffic. H450 I can handle well and u will never tired bcz of riding posture and mainly suspension. Scrambler is also same in terms of handling in traffic but suspension is not up to h450 (we know why) Heat dissipation n management for both are good in bumper to bumper. Comfort, big bike feel , extra for same money more or less (suspension, fuel tank, seating position,pillion comfort ) h450 is my pick. Even though you don’t go off roading, it can be single bike in garage. Drive both bikes n decide which suits you.

[@medsedled]

i have test ridden all three including speed and weird thing i felt is scram is better in city and in cornering compared to speed

[@evoIndia]

With the way our urban roads are -- bumpy and pothole ridden, yes, the Scrambler does a very good job going through this urban jungle.

If it's gonna be your only bike, buy 400x. If you already have a commuter, buy 450.

scram 400x

[@michaelandrew3857]

Basically depends on what u need, if ur purpose is fully off road go for Himalayan. But if u r looking for a multipurpose vehicle and don’t go for heavy off road scram will be a better choice.scram is easily manageable in everyday use

[@evoIndia]

You're right there. The Scrambler might be a more useful bike in that sense. The Himalayan is a proper ADV.

[@nimithna65]

I'm glad I'm an owner of 400x it meets my requirements and I'm happy with it. And in the off-road sense it makes up to the point, only lacking I felt is that it could have a larger tank. Mostly it's a eye catcher, even the RE showroom guys were staring admiring my bike when i parked in front of the showroom 😅😅. And IMO the gps is just a worthless gimmick instead I would mount my phone to the handlebar if it requires charging tho.

[@the_wind_walker]

Things I didnt like in 400X #1 analogue speed digital tacho (barely readable). They should have been swapped for analog tachometer IMHO #2 No main stand (cleaning chain becomes a hassel on long rides) #3 Chain on right side (is not easily accessible because of exhaust) #4 Pillion footpeg is too close to rider footpeg (pillion feet touches riders) #5 lack of windscreen for long highway rides Things I dont like in Himalayan #1 Tube type tyres (tubeless wheels gonna be expensive and go knows when they will arrive) #2 slightly heavy bike (bumper to bumper traffic will be a chore) #3 fit and finish not at par with 400X My pick is Himalayan because I'm a person who prefers function over form. Sure triumph 400x has better fit finish is cheaper and has tubeless tyre but Himalayan has better riding dynamics, better touring capabilities, sitting posture ACCORDING TO ME AND MY REQUIREMENT. Only thing holding me back is tube tyre but i guess eventually ill be able to deal with it down the line

I love how he was trying to be "unbiased" but said how great it was to have google maps on the TFT screen with the Himi, but you still have to keep your phone open and on- oh but no worries they have a type C charger isn't that great? ok so the Triumph has a type c charger on the handle bars as well! so there is no difference you need to use your phone either way to have google maps so just use your phone instead of that TFT display. it's not an advantage- it's a useless feature that nobody will ever use!

Showa suspension is the biggest reason I'm leaning towards Himalayan, it's amazing. But I would've preferred the 400x otherwise.

[@evoIndia]

Though, we highly recommend you test ride both the bikes. The Himalayan would be a good bike if you want a bike to go on long tours and off-roading excursions. The Scrambler would be a better bike for the urban jungle and some mild off-roading.

[@frankpinion4937]

I think you mentioned on the technology front that the Royal Enfield wins. But they are 2 entirely different approaches-aren't they! The Triumph has being true to it's retro style in keeping with previous scramblers not only it's aesthetic look but also the look of the engine as well. Royal Enfield on the other hand have gone in a completly new direction from the old Himalayan to create not only an all new Himalayan but also a modern interpretation. The instrument cluster on the Triumph is retro in keeping with the rest of the bike & the way it looks. But you do have a combination of Analogue & Digital information which I think is a good compromise. Easy enough to mount your phone on the handlebar using an X Grip & navigate directly using your phone-which you would be doing anyway with the Himalayan as it still uses your phone to link into the instrument cluster. Even so a great feature on the Himalayan. I have a Meteor 350 with the tripper & I must say if I'm using the tripper for navigation it's certainly easier to read than if I was using just my phone on a bright day. I think where the Himalayan has missed the mark a bit is the weight which was an issue that some people had with the old bike. 196 kg wet isn't much of an improvement over the 200 kg wet of the old Himalayan. I think part of the problem is that the bike has become longer-taller & wider than the previous model. You can see this with these 2 bikes side by side-the Himalayan looks the bigger bike & unfortunatly that has effected the attempts made at more significant savings in weight. The engineer of the Sherpa engine claimed he saved 10 kg over the old LS410 engine. So in theory we should have seen the weight come in at 190 kg. However somewhere it's put on 6 kg despite the new frame using engine as a stressed member. Part of the problem also perhaps lies in the swing arm of the Himalayan which to me looks like their typical steel swing arm. This is hugely disappointing on a modern interpretation as if you look at the Triumph you'll see it's using an ally frame & so do practically every other manufacturer, even the new CF Moto 450MT. I'd be very interested to compare the dimensions of the New Himalayan from lite middleweight segment with that of the Aprilia Tourag 660 in the middleweight segment. I'd be surprised if their's much difference.

[@evoIndia]

Hey Frank you do have some valid points there. Yes these are two different approaches, but when Karan compared the features, its looking at them very objectively. In a market like ours where features solely can make or break a vehicle, it becomes quite crucial.

[@sakalasiva]

Long tours, good off roading then go for Hymalayan 450, city ride, small off roading go for Scam400x. But I feel for city riding you do not need bigger engines like 400cc you can very well do with smaller 200cc engines also with good mileage. As it said, In India many buy the 2 wheelers based on emotions but not based on practical usage.

I have ridden both scrambler 400X and Himalayan. And The answer is simple Himalayan is trash. It's always the fan boys who are overrating the Himalayan . The Himalayan vibrates so much for both pillion and rider, that I felt very bad tingling at foot pegs. The bike even vibrates when standing still in traffic and is very hard to maneuver, my brother had a very bad cramp as soon as he lifted the bike from side stand. And he is a fanboy, but after the experience he has lost all the respect for Himalayan. We rode both scrambler and Himalayan on the same day so I know the exact difference. And if you observe all the reviewers will compare Himalayan's J series engine with royal Enfields previous engine and say the vibrations are less but if you compare it with scrambler the answer is obvious, Himalayan is trash. This is coming from a person who was considering buying Himalayan due to all the hype but the reality is very different from what the reviews tell you. The showroom experience is very bad in RE , they won't even give you a printed quotation and will advise you to get it from the website instead. Also the Himalayan has lots of issues, while the scrambler had only one issue that is stalling on 3-4th gear which is resolved. My experience is from Pune showrooms. Decide for yourself. ✌️ Peace!

You said 'its not as potent as previous Himalayan'.How 24.5 bhp and 32Nm torque are more potent than 40 bhp and 40Nm torque? HOW? Will you care to explain or were you just blabbering?

The low end on the old bike was much stronger that it is on this. Courtesy of the long stroke engine

I don’t off-road at all. Is it still worth getting a Himalayan 450 or should I go with Scrambler 400x.

[@MrAbhilash02]

Ktm adv 390

[@evoIndia]

That's an interesting contender to the Himalayan, and with rumours of an updated 390 Adv coming up, the segment is going to be LIT!

Himalayan 450

[@evoIndia]

What makes you pick the Himalayan?

[@raajrane]

Your the 1st channel to actually claim the himalayan is better than the triumph, or that the brakes of the triumph aren't good enough. Whereas every other channel speaks otherwise. Also for a fact the New Himalayan suspension is nothing compared to the older himalayan which was known for its pluah ride and this is confirmed by new himalayan owners on insta

[@twowheeledparadox]

Many other channels claim that the new Showa suspension is top notch and far superior to the old one (MotorInc, Itchy Boots and an Aussie channel, I think). The new bike does not wallow like the old one which was apparently the cost of the plush ride. As far as I remember, other channels have also commented on the Triumph's brakes and that is because the Scrambler 400X does not get sintered pads. This is an easy fix as you can get the sintered pads from the Speed 400 installed in the 400X.

Haha! That's a good choice too for its price.

Himalayan doesn't have traction control

[@evoIndia]

Yes, you are right, Varun, it doesn't have traction control.

[@varunjha6004]

Buy both 😂

[@evoIndia]

Hahaha! That would be a dream come true!

[@debarghyaroy6870]

I love how the Himalayan side stand is placed on a stone 😆

[@evoIndia]

Haha! That's only for the framing purposes.

Himalayan samne se bhari hai bhailog city meh chala neh meh utna maza nahi hai

[@evoIndia]

The Himalayan is a proper ADV in that sense. Yes, it's a bit bulky. In the urban jungle, the Scrambler would work better than it.

[@KLACb]

For me, Triumph over himalayan any day 🖕🖕🖕

[@tonnie_j]

Jack of all trades is master of nothing that's scram 400x . If you want a smile after owning one himalayan is the one.

[@tds2839]

a very stupid statement

[@pravinmurthy]

Yes only off road Master.. Everywhere else the Triumph is better 🤷‍♀️

[@tonnie_j]

@@pravinmurthy if you want a better road machine which got better perfomance or handling or braking the speed 400 is far superior then what's the point of getting a scram .
