Along with the new custom paint jobs, users can also choose from two distinct set of graphics for the fuel tank
Triumph’s lowest priced bikes, Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X, have emerged as popular options in the sub-middleweight motorcycle segment. While no one’s questioning the attractive design and powerful performance of these bikes, only three colour options are available for each bike.
Four new custom shades for Speed 400, Scrambler 400X
Apparently, consumer tastes and preferences are a lot more diverse when it comes to their favourite colour. As a fix, a Triumph dealership in Pune is offering custom colour options for Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X.
While factory shades for Speed 400, Scrambler 400X are pretty good, the timeless design of these bikes can surely accommodate a lot more experimentations with the colour palette. Addition of new colours will help target a larger segment of users. Royal Enfield understands this aspect and has been offering a comprehensive range of colour options for its bikes. Something similar is now being done by the Pune-based BU Bhandari Triumph dealership.
One of the custom colours that stands out is a radiant Yellow shade. It presents a pretty picture in combination with the golden coloured USD forks. The Yellow shade is probably the most attractive among the custom colours being offered for Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X. Other colour options on offer include a white, silver and a black & red dual-tone colour scheme.
The application of the custom shades is limited to the fuel tank. This is probably due to technical and equipment limitations at the dealer level. In a factory setting, colour application can extend to various other parts such as the exposed frame sections, wheels, etc. Notwithstanding the limited applicability, the custom colour shades still come across as a refreshing change. It will appeal even more to users who are especially interested in a particular colour shade.
New custom graphics for Speed 400, Scrambler 400X
Along with the new colour shades, users can also choose from two distinct graphics options. One set of graphics primarily has the Triumph logo, whereas the other graphics kit has a combo of Triumph logo and twin contrasting strips.
With four new colours, users now have a better chance of finding the best option that suits their individual tastes and preferences. If this new strategy works, it is possible that other Triumph dealers may also launch similar schemes for their customers.
