Triumph has launched the Tracker 400 in India with a downsized 349cc engine to benefit from the lower 18 percent tax bracket. Positioned as a flat-track-inspired road motorcycle, the Tracker 400 adds a new body style and moniker to Triumph's small-capacity range. Here are answers to some of the spec-related questions you might have about this new model.
What is the price of the Triumph Tracker 400?
The Triumph Tracker 400 is priced at Rs 2.46 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). At this price point, the Tracker 400 slots neatly between the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 – costing Rs 14,000 more than the Speed 400 and Rs 14,000 less than the Scrambler 400.
What engine does the Triumph Tracker 400 use?
The Triumph Tracker 400 is powered by a downsized 349cc single-cylinder engine producing 40hp and 32Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. This is the same higher state of tune as the Thruxton 400, while the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 produce a lower 37hp. The Tracker also produces its peak power 250rpm higher up in the rev range at 8,750rpm compared to the aforementioned models that produce their peak power at 8,500rpm. To achieve the lower displacement, Triumph has kept the bore intact and shortened the stroke of the earlier 398cc engine. Compared to the international-spec bike, the India-spec Tracker is down by 2hp.
What are the key features on the Triumph Tracker 400?
The Triumph Tracker 400 features a USD fork and monoshock suspension setup, similar to the entire small-capacity Triumph range barring the Speed T4. It runs on 17-inch wheels with a new wheel design compared to other small-capacity Triumphs, shod with MRF REVZ FD1 tyres. Visually, the Tracker 400 adopts a flatter, stripped-back design language inspired by flat-track racing, with a boxy fuel tank, a flyscreen, number-board-style panels and a colour-coded seat cowl. The rear three-quarter section, including the simple rectangular LED tail-light and seat, is shared with the Thruxton 400.
What is the seat height and weight of the Triumph Tracker 400?
The Triumph Tracker 400 has a seat height of 805mm and weighs 181kg. At 181kg, the Tracker 400 is 2kg heavier than the new Speed 400. The relatively accessible seat height combined with the stripped-back flat-track styling gives the Tracker 400 a unique position in Triumph's small-capacity lineup.
What colours is the Triumph Tracker 400 available in?
The Triumph Tracker 400 is available in three colour options: white with red, yellow with black, and black with red. These colour schemes complement the bike's flat-track-inspired design language and give buyers a choice of bold, racing-inspired liveries.
