My Honest Review Of The New TRIUMPH SPEED 400!

In this video I try and give an honest opinion on the Triumph SPEED 400. This is simply an awesome awesome awesome machine (YES I SAID IT 3 TIMES!) I think it’s one of the most handsome looking bikes available on the market particularly in that red colour with the contrast with the black details and gold suspension arms. The engine is a peach! and the bike handles like a dream. It really is a lot of bike for the money I think. It's very comfortable and is super economical.

I would suggest booking one out for a test ride if you're thinking of getting one.

Better filmed, edited, and structured than most youtubers with big following have, great review- your effort shows!

Hopefully receive my red Speed 400 this month. Thanks for the review.

Great review, no body ever get's out on the motor way as you call it there. Talking about being able to flat foot, and that the bike is lite, and does not get blown around in windy conditions. These are the things I want to know. Not just power and cornering. Thanks.

Nice riding! Also this is the best review of the bike I`ve seen so far.

[chrislye]

That’s a great review mate. Triumph certainly build some lovely bikes!

I like these triumph bikes buddy they do look very good for the money. Brilliant review and ride as always 😀🙌🙌

Great video, loads of info without any silly music. Will have to have a go on one. I have a Himalayan as a winter/ fun bike and although its fast enough its really asthmatic in the mid range. This little trumpet looks a lot more lively. Nice one.

Im 6 feet tall and this is the most perfect size bike I've ever sat on. The seat is so covetable. If it was a five hundred I'd buy one this year. But my 21 Duke 390 has more pick up and power so I'll stick with it and pray that Triumph make this exact bike a 500cc. Hi from Brisbane Australia 🦘

Went to the dealer for the scrambler. Bought the speed. 🙃I'm waiting for it to arrive!

Love the video and the white van at 4:25 was a jerk. Way to ride defensively.

Must say Triumph has done the best job of maintaining quality while building these small bikes in India. Of course only time will tell, but the appearance of the bike is just as lovely as the UK products.
I want one to replace my missing (stolen) 1982 Honda FT500 Ascot.
That bike reminded me about the sheer joy of Thumpers. Probably going to sell my 2003 Yamaha FZ1, as I don’t need all that power weight and complexity at my age.

I have one, there are lots of issues with the ignition - won't turn on frequently, sometimes the engine warning lit up, sometimes abs and traction control,

One time the ignition completely cut off while overtaking no abs, traction control... I felt like I was going to heaven/ hell somewhere 🤣.
Finally the dealer replaced the keys and immobilizer control unit ( in just 996km)
The funniest thing I've seen in my 400 was the distance to empty --- it never ever showed an accurate reading.


But... Everything else is pretty good and pretty impressive.

Looking to buy one, your review was brilliant!!

[ashish]

I own one, purchase it for 2.8 Lakhs INR around 2500 euros.
Happy with the purchase, there was an issue, bike stopped suddenly while pressing clutch for too long. Now it's resolved with update, not sure if it's still in the exported bikes.

[ANIK]

Test rode couple of days ago 😮 engine kinda feels stressed 😢
Vibration ~ buzz is definitely there after 5k rpm at least in pegs

Breaks are extremely good...
Suspension is good
Gearbox is buttery smooth
Clutch is light and good

[DatOldeBiker]

Thanks for your review. It appears that Triumph can make rather good smaller bikes too. If these had been available when I bought an MT03 a few years ago when getting back into biking I definitely would have tried and maybe bought one. I'm still very much in love with my Street Triple, now coming up to three years. :>)

[BioMECH]

Fantastic review. But goodness, some drivers you encountered were just a menace.

[LostYogi]

Great review, I ordered a black Speed 400 back in Oct '23, but I will switch the footpegs and holders for the ones from the Scrambler to get a little more legroom and more open seating position as I am 6'2 (187cm) tall. Also, I am going up at least 1 tooth on the front sprocket as almost every review states that 1st and 2nd gear are more or less useless.
Hopefully, it will land here in Denmark for delivery next week.

[sanjidhossin]

Its a very beautiful looking bike ... perfect in every way 🤩🤩🤩

[slyfox]

Great review, thanks and I've watched many reviews on these bikes, so test rode a red speed and red Scrambler today, wow what a thumper, thats one busy buzzy lively engine, both models exhausts sound fantastic. Taken the plunge and ordered a black Speed, reasons are.. I can flat foot it, its 10kg lighter and more manoverable which is handy at my age, takes up less space in the garage, height and width. I'm 5ft 8". Dont get me wrong the Scrambler is a smashing looking bike and lots roomier, just a bit tall for me. So the Speed came out tops, luckily picking it up next week.🙂 what I did notice was 2 second hand scramblers in the showroom but no Speeds 🤔
Personally my heart went with the Scrambler mainly due to ascetics but my head went with the Speed, I would advise test ride both and ask for at least 3 hours for each bike.
