Priced at Rs 2.74 lakh ex-showroom, the new Thruxton sits above the Scrambler 400X in Triumph’s 400cc lineup. So here’s a look at the top highlights you need to know about the motorcycle.
Triumph Thruxton 400: Design
The first feature that one would notice is the design of the new Thruxton 400. The motorcycle stands out compared to the Speed 400 and the Scrambler 400 X because of its cafe racer-style fairing. The half fairing houses the round headlight, while the rest of the motorcycle looks identical to the Speed 400.
The motorcycle gets a modified subframe, respositioned pegs, clip-on bars, redesigned side panels, and more, giving it a distinctive design. Adding to the design are the colour options, and the Thruxton 400 is available in four choices: Lava Red, Pearl Metallic White, Phantom Black, and Metallic Racing Yellow.
Triumph Thruxton 400: Equipment and features
In terms of equipment, the new Thruxton 400 is suspended by USD forks at the front, a monoshock at the rear, rides on 17-inch cast alloy wheels, gets disc brakes at both ends, and LED lighting. Instrumentation includes a semi-digital console.
Speaking of features, the new Triumph Thruxton retains all the goodies the Speed 400 gets, which include dual-channel ABS and traction control. The motorcycle has seen some revisions to its mechanicals, and the Thruxton offers 10mm more suspension travel, while the ground clearance stands at 158mm.
Triumph Thruxton 400: Engine specifications and competition
The Triumph Thruxton 400 is powered by the same engine that does its duty in the Speed 400 and the Scrambler 400X. The engine is a 398cc, single-cylinder liquid-cooled motor.
The engine makes slightly more power, and produces 41.5bhp and 37.5Nm of torque. The engine is mated to a six-speed gearbox with a slipper clutch. Triumph does not offer a quickshifter.
On the competition front, the new Triumph Thruxton 400 has no direct rivals in India, however, the closest competitor is the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650, which is priced at Rs 3.26 lakh. However, one major difference between them is the engine setup — The Thruxton uses a single-cylinder configuration while a parallel twin powers the GT 650.
