Designed and developed at Triumph’s headquarters at Hinckley, UK, the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X share much of their design elements with their larger siblings. The Speed 400 looks the part of a roadster while the 400X gets design elements to link it with the rest of the scrambler family. Both motorcycles also get hardware differences as well with the Scrambler getting longer travel suspension, different exhaust, and a larger front wheel to name a few. Both models however are based on the same platform and share a common frame, engine and gearbox.
The bikes are powered by a 398 cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine that makes 39.5 bhp at 8,000 rpm while the peak torque output is 37.5 Nm at 6,500 rpm. The unit is paired to a 6-speed gearbox, which gets a torque-assist clutch.
