      Triumph Scrambler 400X Launched – Rs. 2.63 Lakh, Off-road Hardware

      by

      Triumph Scrambler 400X LaunchedThe 398cc single-cylinder DOHC, 4V, liquid-cooled engine on Triumph Scrambler 400X is similar to Speed 400 and generates 40 PS of power and 37.5 Nm of torqueThe British brand’s affordable lineup manufactured by Bajaj Auto has been to a good start with the launch of Speed 400. Now, Triumph has launched Scrambler 400X, the second motorcycle in its budget TR series based lineup. Price for Triumph Scrambler 400X is Rs. 2,62,996 (ex-sh) and is Rs. 30,000 more expensive than its roadster counterpart, Speed 400.Triumph Scrambler 400X LaunchedA strategic partnership with Bajaj Auto has resulted in the introduction of two new affordable motorcycles for Triumph. Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X are based on TR Series 398 cc single-cylinder engine that generates 40 PS of peak power and 37.5 Nm of peak torque.This is a modern powertrain that features liquid cooling, a DOHC setup, a 4V head, a slipper clutch, ride-by-wire, a 6-speed gearbox and more. Triumph has optimised this powertrain for low-speed rideability, smooth power delivery and a lot of character. Where it differs from Speed 400 is in hardware and componentry.For starters, Triumph Scrambler 400X gets off-road-worthy componentry. These include a long-travel suspension setup (150 mm travel at both ends) consisting of gold-finished USD telescopic front forks, rear mono-shock, adjustable handlebars, 19-inch front wheel wrapped with 100/90-19 rubber and 17-inch rear wheel wrapped with 140/70-17 rubber. Both ends get block pattern dual-purpose tyres.Triumph Scrambler 400X specsThere is a single-disc brake setup at both ends, coupled with dual-channel ABS. Other notable elements are 195 mm ground clearance, upgraded flat foot pegs with removable rubber for better grip, 835 mm seat height and more. Triumph provides quite a bit of protection for both motorcycle and rider with features like engine sump protection, headlight grill protection, radiator guard, handlebar brace and knuckle guards.To aid dirt riding, Triumph is offering a switchable traction control system and switchable ABS. This should allow for a fun-packed trail session, blasting through beaten paths. The exhaust is slightly up-swept in Triumph Scrambler 400X, which should ensure reasonable water-wading capability. There is a longer front mudguard too.Impactful and purposeful designAs opposed to Speed 400, Triumph Scrambler 400X has a longer wheelbase along with higher ground clearance, and a commanding riding position. Overall package weighs just 179 kg, which is decent, considering the kit on offer. Design is purposeful and is in line with what Triumph offers with bigger models within Scrambler lineup including Scrambler 900 and Scrambler 1200.Triumph Scrambler 400X coloursTriumph’s signature sculpted fuel tank, engine profile, and its timeless overall aura screams sophistication. The quality along with fit and finish are in line with Triumph’s image. The promised service interval is pretty high too, at 10,000 miles (16,093 km). This not only reduces running and maintenance costs but reduces the number of visits to service centres as well.In terms of features, Triumph offers all-LED lighting, a semi-digital instrument cluster, a USB-C charging socket, factory fitted immobilizer key and more. Personalisation is possible with 25 genuine accessories that the brand is offering. There are three colours on offer with Triumph Scrambler 400X – Matte Khaki Green, Phantom Black and Carnival Red. Bookings have commenced already.Triumph Scrambler 400X trail blasting More

      Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 Production Starts – 1st Unit Rolls Out Of Plant

      by

      Royal Enfield Himalayan 450Powerful performance and enhanced ride dynamics will be among the key differentiating factors for new Himalayan 450For explorers with limited budget, one of the preferred options has been the Royal Enfield Himalayan. To boost its capabilities even further, Royal Enfield is working on the all-new Himalayan 450. The bike is scheduled to debut on November 1st, 2023.Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 production startsAhead of launch, production of the new Himalayan 450 has started at the company plant in Chennai. It will have more firepower to take on rivals such as KTM 390 Adventure. And with affordable pricing, it could emerge as an irresistible deal. For reference, the existing 411cc Himalayan is available at a starting price of around Rs 2.16 lakh.Royal Enfield Himalayan 450As compared to existing Himalayan, the new Himalayan 450 has a relatively lithe profile. The changes should make the bike more appropriate for both highway cruising and off-road environments. Some of the key highlights include raised front beak, round headlamp, round rear view mirrors, large windscreen, wide handlebar, new sculpted fuel tank, side luggage rack and compact exhaust.Users can expect optimal comfort on longer rides, as Himalayan 450 is equipped with a pretty large rider seat. It has thick foam padding and relevant bevels to support the thighs. To make longer journeys more convenient, Himalayan 450 is expected to offer a range of luggage accessories. At the rear, the bike has a dedicated rack for a top box. Racks for side panniers are expected to be offered as an accessory.Royal Enfield Himalayan 450Users can expect to ride longer distances between fuel stops, as the fuel tank appears larger than the current model. Or it may be just that the higher capacity engine will consume more fuel per kilometre, which can be compensated with a larger fuel tank. However, nothing is certain as the new 450cc engine could actually be more fuel efficient.Royal Enfield Himalayan 45021-inch wheels at front and 17-inch at rear will be the same as the existing Himalayan. The bike will have disc brakes, integrated with dual-channel ABS. New Himalayan 450 will have ground clearance of around 220 mm.Some of the features that will be entirely new for Himalayan 450 include all-LED lighting and USD front forks. The bike will also be getting a new single-pod instrument cluster. It’s a large circular unit, with a different layout in comparison to that of other Royal Enfield bikes. The gear indicator is dead centre whereas the speedometer is placed towards the right. The tachometer covers the outer circumference of the instrument console.Royal Enfield Himalayan 450Himalayan 450 performanceNew Himalayan 450 is expected to get a 450cc, liquid cooled engine. It could generate around 35 bhp of max power and 40 Nm of peak torque. This can make a big difference in ride dynamics in comparison to Himalayan 411. The latter generates 24.3 bhp and 32 Nm, which may not be enough for extreme off-road tracks. Highway cruising abilities will also be enhanced with the more powerful engine. New Himalayan 450 is expected to get a 6-speed gearbox. The engine will have features such as slipper and assist clutch. More

      Hero Testing Xpulse 210 And Xtreme 210 Bikes? – Karizma Engine?

      by

      Hero Xpulse 210 spotted testingAfter launching Karizma XMR in India, Hero is experimenting with the same powertrain with Xpulse and Xtreme rangeIndia’s largest two-wheeler manufacturer, Hero MotoCorp aspires to add more depth to its premium portfolio. Jointly developed products like Harley-Davidson X440 have received favourable market response. Hero is yet to launch more premium bikes under its own brand. The new test mules spotted in the mountains are an embodiment of that strategy.Batter Xpulse – What to expect?Xpulse has emerged as a popular choice. The bike enjoys sort of a monopoly, being a proper off-roader at Rs 1.45 lakh (ex-sh). The Xpulse 200 4V Pro brings even more off-road-worthy kit at Rs 1.52 lakh (ex-sh). Xpulse 200 is currently the most successful bike in the company’s premium range. Recently launched Karizma XMR has also been receiving positive feedback from enthusiasts. Combining the two would make a tonne of sense.That is exactly what Hero seems to be doing. In the spy video, we can see a new ADV motorcycle with an identical body and componentry as Xpulse 200 4V on sale, but with a brand new engine. We can see a liquid-cooled setup with two channels leading to its two overhead camshafts. Hero only has one liquid-cooled DOHC engine, which is on Karizma XMR.As Xpulse is already popular, Hero could be looking to introduce a better version of the bike. It has similar features and components as Xpulse 200 4V such as a raised front beak, round LED headlamp with ‘H’ insignia, a long-travel suspension setup and knobby dual-purpose tyres. Spy video is credited to man.vs.tarmac Instagram channel. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sumit Gaikwad (@man.vs.tarmac) This 210cc engine makes 25.5 bhp and 20.4 Nm of torque, mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Slip and assist clutch may be on offer too. Dual Channel ABS, not so sure. Xpulse owners had always craved more performance and a 6th gear for long-leggedness. Hero seems to have heard their feedback. Because this new Xpulse 210 is just that!Hero Xtreme 210 is in the works!Along with the ADV test mule, a street bike in full camouflage has been spotted. Hero is taking on rivals like Bajaj Pulsar and TVS Apache RTR range, with a naked street bike. Both the Xpulse 210 and naked bike use Karizma’s engine. The name Xtreme 210 is highly likely. It sports a similar stubby exhaust as Karizma XMR as well.Some of the key highlights of this upcoming Hero Xtreme 210 include fat road-biased tyres, alloy wheels, USD telescopic front forks, a wide handlebar, a sculpted fuel tank with muscular tank shrouds and a split seat design. The headlamp assembly is completely camouflaged. Maybe this new LED headlight setup is still in the works. LED turn indicators are present too.Same engine as Karizma XMR 210What about the third test mule?There’s a third test mule with camouflage present too. Also, a standard Xpulse 200 4V without any camouflage, can be a support vehicle in this convoy. This third test mule is hidden behind Xtreme 210 and begs the question of what it could be. As of now, it remains a mystery.A fully digital instrument cluster with Bluetooth-based connectivity features will be part of both test mules. Hero will spawn bigger Xpulse motorcycles too, with bigger body and bigger oil-cooled engines shared with Harley-Davidson X440. Those test mules were spied last year.Xtreme 210 test mule More

      Royal Enfield Bobber 350 With Pillion Seat Accessory Spied Up-Close

      by

      Royal Enfield Bobber 350The same 349cc single-cylinder engine as other 350cc RE bikes will do duty on Royal Enfield Bobber 350 as well – With 20.2 bhp and 27 NmAfter the launch of Bullet 350, Royal Enfield is set to introduce a new 350cc motorcycle. However, this is not a new motorcycle. In typical Royal Enfield fashion of carving new vehicles out of the same core motorcycle, we will get a bobber-styled 350cc bike. The name Classic 350 Bobber or Bobber 350 are likely.Royal Enfield Bobber 350 With Pillion Seat AccessoryWith utter dominance in 350cc motorcycle segment, Royal Enfield is set to further fortify its portfolio with a niche product. We’re talking about Royal Enfield Bobber 350 which will probably be the most expensive 350cc RE in the portfolio when launched. It is an adaptation of its best-selling Classic 350. Hat tip to automotive enthusiast Ashok for sharing these exclusive spy shots.Royal Enfield Bobber 350In this sense, it is basically a Classic 350, but with Bobber style. It lacks proper Bobber attributes like an extended wheelbase and is highly likely to just be a design exercise. In this regard, Jawa has done a pretty good job with Perak and 42 Bobber. Both of these are proper Bobber motorcycles and not regular bikes with tall handlebars.Recent spy shots show Bobber 350 up close. We can see Royal Enfield is playing the retro card. We’re talking about white-walled tyres (or teal-coloured tyre walls) that scream retro and pay tribute to one of the standout elements of vehicles of the past.Royal Enfield Bobber 350It will probably get a single seat as standard with a pillion seat version as an option and offer a pillion seat as an accessory too. Buying either Bullet 350 or Classic 350 and installing Bobber 350’s handlebar could yield similar results as Bobber 350. Just saying. Side body panels, headlights, instrument cluster, switchgear, and everything are similar to Classic 350.Royal Enfield Bobber 350What is different between Bobber 350 and Classic 350?Wheelbase looks identical to that of Classic 350 along with fuel tank and body panels. The differences between the upcoming Bobber 350 and Classic 350 single-seater are with headlights, handlebars, seating, tyres and exhaust. Bobber 350 packs a slightly taller handlebar that is reminiscent of Bobber-style motorcycles.Seating is slightly different too with pillion seats being small and uncomfortable for long rides. It is to be noted that Royal Enfield is likely to offer Bobber 350 with a more comfortable pillion seat option as seen in previous spy shots. Pillion seat in recent spy shot seem to be an accessory. Exhaust has slightly different tips and the headlights are now LEDs.RSU telescopic front forks, dual rear shock absorbers, single disc brake setup at both ends, dual-channel ABS, wire-spoke wheels, and analogue instrument cluster, are similar to the ones seen with other Royal Enfield bikes. The 349cc single-cylinder engine with 20.2 bhp and 27 Nm, mated to a 5-speed gearbox will remain as is with Bobber 350 too. More

      Biggest Pulsar Likely To Get A New 294cc Engine – Is it Pulsar 300 ? (Scoop)

      by

      The new Bajaj Pulsar 300 will sit above the existing Pulsar 250s.All-new 300cc Pulsar will rival the likes of TVS Apache RTR 310 and BMW G310RRajiv Bajaj recently revealed that they are working on launching the biggest Pulsar motorcycle this financial year. It will be bigger than the existing flagship Pulsar 250 range. When asked, what will be the engine capacity of this new Pulsar motorcycle, Rajiv Bajaj said details will be revealed at a later date. Rumours suggested that this new Pulsar could be powered by a derivative of Dominar 400 or new KTM Duke 390 engine. In the past we have seen Bajaj launching similar sized engine cc motorcycles with Pulsar which were already seen in the KTM range. After the KTM 200 launch we got the Pulsar 200. After the KTM 250 launch we got the Pulsar 250. Will we get the Pulsar 400 next?New Pulsar 300 Incoming?Sources tell Rushlane that the biggest Pulsar that is getting ready for launch is not Pulsar 400, but Pulsar 300. It will be powered by an all new 294cc engine. With the 300-400cc motorcycle segment registering strong growth, a number of OEMs are targeting this space. Some recent launches include Harley-Davidson X440 and Triumph Speed 400. TVS has also introduced the Apache RTR 310.Bajaj Pulsar 300 could get a new design – Not inspired by Pulsar 250Pulsar bikes have always been preferred for their dominating street presence and powerful performance. The approach will be largely the same for the upcoming 300cc Pulsar. Of course, being the biggest Pulsar, enthusiasts can expect some added dynamism and features. Pulsar 300 will be muscular and aggressive, designed to turn heads of the streets.It will get a digital instrument cluster and Bluetooth based connectivity functions. Bajaj could add USD front forks, while a monoshock unit will handle suspension duties at rear. Both ends will have disc brakes, integrated with dual-channel ABS. For smooth downshifts, a slipper clutch can be provided. Pulsar 300 will have a versatile riding stance, suited for both city streets and highway cruising.Bajaj Pulsar F250While nothing is official as yet, the new 294cc engine to be used with the biggest Pulsar could generate around 30 PS of max power and 25 Nm of peak torque. A 6-speed gearbox could be offered. Pulsar 300 will offer superior acceleration and could have a rated top speed in excess of 140 kmph. Once can expect impressive torque delivery across the rev range. The bike will appeal to folks who crave speed and performance.Biggest Pulsar 300cc will have a seat height of around 800 mm. It will ensure improved control and handling across varied environments. The bike will have ample ground clearance, allowing it to manage some mild off-roads. Fuel tank capacity could be around 15 litres.Bajaj Pulsar 300 – expected priceBajaj has been synonymous with affordability, which explains its soaring popularity across both domestic and international markets. Even with its flagship bike Dominar 400, Bajaj has ensured the most affordable pricing. While the current Pulsar 250 twins are available at a starting price of Rs 1.50 lakh, the new Pulsar 300 will be priced above this, making it an irresistible deal for budding enthusiasts.Bajaj has been targeting the premium motorcycle segment for quite some time now. However, as seen with bikes like Dominar 400, results have not been as per expectations. Hopefully, the new 300cc Pulsar can help Bajaj emerge as a strong player in the premium segment. This year, Bajaj will be launching 6 new Pulsar motorcycles. The company is also planning to launch CNG commuter bikes, which can be real game changer in the two-wheeler industry. More
