      by

      Triumph Scrambler 1200 XWhen compared to XC and XE variants, Triumph Scrambler 1200 X is lighter on the pocket and offers a friendlier seating positionIconic British motorcycle manufacturer, Triumph, has listed a new motorcycle on its website. No. It is not yet time for the brand to launch Thruxton 440, which officially brake covers by the end of 2024. Instead, Triumph Scrambler 1200X has been launched in India. This sits above Scrambler 900 in the company’s lineup.Triumph Scrambler 1200 X Costs Rs. 11.83 LakhScrambler lineup from Triumph is one of the most popular. Sure, there are Tigers and the newly unveiled Daytona. But Triumph Scrambler is a popular choice among enthusiasts and the company had even launched special editions of Scrambler 1200 like “Bond Edition” launched in 2020 with a production run of 250 units.Triumph Scrambler 1200 X AccessorisedHowever, In India, 2024 has witnessed a new entrant to company’s scrambler lineup in the form of Scrambler 1200 X. It costs Rs. 11.83 lakh (ex-sh) and it is basically an affordable version of more equipped variants like Scrambler 1200 XC and Scrambler 1200 XE. For intended buyers, Scrambler 1200 X is also the friendliest variant too.We say this because X packs a seat height of just 820 mm, which is much lower when compared to XC variant. Shorter riders can choose a short-seat accessory that will bring seat height to 795 mm. Speaking of, there are over 70 official accessories compatible with Scrambler 1200 X, if you want an accessory frenzy.Triumph Scrambler 1200 X Seat HeightWe mentioned affordability factor as well, with Triumph Scrambler 1200 X. Triumph has achieved this by bundling less sophisticated componentry with X, when compared to more kitted-out XC and XE variants. We’re talking about non-adjustable front and rear suspension with X, along with less sophisticated braking hardware.2024 Triumph Scrambler 1200 X Full SpecsPowertrain, specs and hardwareOnly rear suspension gets preload adjustability. Braking hardware on Scrambler 1200 X is from Nissin and not Brembo M50s seen with other variants. Powertrain-wise, Triumph has not made any significant changes, except for a slight re-tune. 88.7 bhp and 110 Nm are the same as before, but peak power is now accessible at lower revs and peak torque is pushed higher up the revs.No other changes are seen with this 1,200cc parallel twin liquid cooled engine, which is mated to a 6-speed transmission. Off-road worthy highlights include 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wire-spoke wheels, knobby A/T tubeless tyres, long travel suspension and up-swept double barrel exhaust in iconic Triumph Scrambler design.Triumph Scrambler 1200 X ExhaustKerb weight of Triumph Scrambler 1200 X is 228 kg with a 15L fuel tank.

The aftermarket kit seller mentions that RCX2 SE is compatible with RC 200 and RC 390 only.We don’t see why it wouldn’t be compatible with RC 125.

One part includes its side fairings and second part adorns its engine and underbelly. The picture of the RCX2 SE kit shows both side fairings and belly parts installed.We can see how much fuller Autologue RCX2 SE looks when compared to standard vehicle.

      Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm Breaks – Owner Shares Details

      by

      Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm BreaksThe 4 days old Triumph Speed 400 swingarm breaks within 560km reading on odometer while riding on smooth tarmac returning from Solang to ManaliTriumph India is on the verge of expanding its global presence by launching affordable single-cylinder motorcycles in partnership with Bajaj. Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X are the first launches with Thruxton 400 in the pipeline. In a rather shocking turn of events, a 4 days old Triumph Speed 400 has had its swingarm broken in two.4 Days Old Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm Breaks In TwoEsteemed motoring journalist Jeremy Clarkson once introduced an old Toyota Corolla hatchback as the world’s fastest car. Sure, it only had a 1.8L petrol engine and no modifications at all. Reason was, it being a rental vehicle. He further elaborated that said rental car had 140 bhp from the moment he started the engine till the moment he crashed it.Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm BreaksWe mention this reference because the 4 days old Triumph Speed 400 with a broken swingarm is a rental vehicle too and this particular incident seems to have happened in the hands of a client. Owner of said Speed 400 is Abhinav Sood, who runs a motorcycle rental business over the past 10 years with over 130 motorcycles in possession.Of these 130, 8 motorcycles are from Triumph and only one of them has had swingarm breaking issue. Abhinav Sood explained on their Facebook post that motorcycle in question had clocked just 560 km on the odometer in 4 days of ownership. This is normal mileage for a rental vehicle.Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm BreaksHe further explained that this incident happened on a smooth tarmac while returning to Manali from Solang and was not an off-road situation. Mr Sood further claims that the motorcycle was not abused at all and there is nothing that hit this swingarm to break it. He did mention a sliding situation where this motorcycle seems to have fallen and caused this.Spare parts availability of Triumph 400s is very difficultOwner Abhinav Sood raised concerns for safety of his clients who often go to challenging spots in Himalayas like Zanskar, Sach Pass and Ladakh. Many of his clients usually carry luggage and even camping equipment and the swingarm breaking issue puts him in a difficult position to rent out Triumphs.Triumph uses the same cast-aluminium swingarm on Scrambler 400X as well, which is designed to take on beaten paths. There must have been robust engineering on this swingarm to test Scrambler 400X’s hypothetical jumps and landings along with sustainability in harsh terrain where Scrambler 400X is advertised to go.Triumph Speed 400 Swingarm BreaksSocial media users of the said group where this post has been shared, comments section suggest that Bajaj and Triumph should acquire this particular unit from Abinav Sood running BRM Expeditions and perform rigorous testing. One user claims that this would determine if this swingarm needs re-engineering with material choice or metallurgical process. Also, owner Abhinav Sood raised serious concerns regarding lack of availability of spare parts for this brand-new product. Supporting vehicle owners with spare parts is crucial to retain the trust of said owners.Source More

      Triumph Daytona 660 Teased Officially – India Launch Likely?

      by

      Triumph Daytona 660 teasedAs opposed to Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660 with 81 bhp and 64 Nm, Triumph Daytona 660 teased may pack a different tune to suit super-sport characterThe British brand’s iconic 3-cylinder fully-faired super sports is getting a reboot for 2024. The Daytona nameplate holds a significant recall among enthusiasts. The same resonates here in India too, owing to popularity of the last Daytona model, 675 R. Triumph has teased the new Daytona and has a good chance of making it to Indian shores as well.Triumph Daytona 660 Teased OfficiallyThis is the first time Triumph is officially teasing its newest super sport machine. The company took to social media platforms to drop three images revealing the fascia of its new Daytona, 660 lettering seen on its engine cowl that indicates displacement number and the debut date. Speaking of, Triumph Daytona 660 will break covers on 9th January, 2024.The British motorcycle company has been testing its Daytona 660 abroad and there have been multiple test mule sightings. These test mules were close to production-spec model and revealed quite a bit of design information which should paint quite a picture as to what we can expect from this new motorcycle.For starters, there is a handsome new fairing that is not only sleek but pretty. There is a twin-pod LED headlight grabbing a lot of attention. These look like eyes of a predator, waiting to pounce on its prey. The layered fairing has multiple open sections for aerodynamic purposes that add to handling characteristics, engine’s cooling and heat dissipation.Triumph Daytona 660Triumph Daytona 660 teased, shares its powertrain with other 660s in Triumph’s lineup. These include Tiger Sport 660 and Trident 660. However, owing to Daytona’s sporty personality, Triumph might tune this 3-cylinder engine to offer more performance and a different character. We expect Daytona 660 to be the most powerful version of this platform.Powertrain, specs and componentryCurrent setup on Trident 660 yields 81 bhp of peak power and 64 Nm of peak torque. Riding modes, traction control and a bi-directional quick-shifter are likely to be standard fitment. Just like its powertrain, Daytona 660 may share its main frame, underbelly exhaust, and swingarm with other components with other 660s currently on sale.Test mules spotted earlier this year show a slightly different subframe than Trident 660. There is a split seat setup and looks accommodating for both rider and pillion. Tail light is identical to Trident 660. Other identical elements include USD telescopic front forks, alloy wheels with Michelin Road 5 tyres, circular fully digital instrument clusters, switchgear and more.Daytona 660 Fairing designBraking hardware seems to be different on Daytona 660 as opposed to Trident 660’s Nissin calipers. The whole braking orientation has been changed to radial setup from axial setup on Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660. If launched in India, it will take on the likes of Kawasaki Ninja 650 and Honda CBR650R. In pricing, it might clash with recently launched Kawasaki Ninja ZX-4R as well. More

      Triumph Thruxton 400 Render Based On Latest Spy Shots – New Colours

      by

      New Triumph Thruxton 400 RenderJust like the other two Triumph 400s, Thruxton 400 will also be manufactured in India by Bajaj AutoTriumph has received a good response to its single-cylinder bikes, Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X. They have already entered the top 5 list of bestselling 300cc to 500cc motorcycles in the country. The bikes have also been introduced across global markets such as Malaysia, Philippines, Japan and the United Kingdom. To woo an even larger segment of enthusiasts, Triumph is working on a cafe racer version based on the 400cc platform.Triumph Thruxton 400 – Key featuresFor folks who prefer the cafe racer look, Triumph currently sells the Thruxton 1200. Now that the 400cc platform has gotten off to a great start, it makes sense to launch a smaller capacity, affordably-priced Thruxton. The test mule reveals that the hardware is taken from Speed 400, whereas the outer form is inspired from Thruxton 1200. Based on the spy shots, Pratyush Rout has created a digital render of the upcoming Triumph Thruxton 400.New Triumph Thruxton 400 RenderThere are quite a few similarities such as the round LED headlight, bar-end mirrors and teardrop shaped fuel tank. The upswept exhaust, single-piece seat and 17-inch alloys are the same as that of Speed 400.Talking about unique features of Thruxton 400, the bike gets a cafe racer front cowl. It helps achieve a clear distinction with the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X. The cowl fairing extends from the headlight to the bottom of the fuel tank. A decent sized windscreen is mounted in between the two panels. However, the larger capacity Thruxton 1200 does not have this front cowl.New Triumph Thruxton 400 RenderRiding ergonomics are another differentiating factor for Triumph Thruxton 400. The bike has rear set foot pegs and low-set handlebar, which necessitate a committed riding stance. Front LED indicators have been shifted downwards slightly to accommodate the front fairing. Some tweaks are also noticeable for the LED tail lamp and pillion grab rail. The test mule spotted overseas was wearing Pirelli Rosso 3 rubber. This is the same as that of Speed 400 meant for export markets. In India, Thruxton 400 is likely to get locally sourced Apollo or MRF tyres.New Triumph Thruxton 400 RenderTriumph Thruxton 400 specs, performanceMost of the hardware specs will be the same as Speed 400. A 398.15 cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder, DOHC engine delivers 40 PS of max power and 37.5 Nm of peak torque. It is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Thruxton 400 will be using the tubular steel frame with bolt-on rear subframe, integrated with 43mm USD front forks and gas monoshock RSU at rear. While the Speed 400 has the USD forks in golden finish, the test mule was spotted with black coloured USD forks.Braking setup will have 300 mm and 230 mm discs at front and rear, respectively. Dual-channel ABS will be standard. The bike will have an analogue speedometer with integrated multi-function LCD screen.As the changes are mostly cosmetic, it shouldn’t take much time to launch Thruxton 400. The bike is likely to be launched in overseas markets first, before being introduced in India. First or second quarter of CY2024 are plausible timeframes for launch of Thruxton 400. More
