Trending Questions on Triumph Bikes - Answered by Autocar Experts
Iโm 5โฒ9โณ and currently ride a Yezdi Roadster. I want to upgrade to a bike for daily office runs of 25-30 km and weekly tours of about 150 km. Iโm looking for a motorcycle that offers decent mileage and good riding comfort. Please suggest suitable options.
Taking your considerations into account, bikes we would recommend taking a look at are the Triumph Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X / XC.
Both will offer you considerably higher performance than your Yezdi bike and will also be comfortable enough to handle daily commuting duties while being brisk enough on the highway as well.
If you want an air-cooled, torquey engine, then you could even take a look at the Harley-Davidson X440, which is a comfortable neo-retro roadster that has decent performance.
Take a test ride of the machines you shortlist before picking one.
My Dominar is showing signs of aging and the ABS is almost done. Wanted a city friendly bike which is comfortable for the pillion as well, have shortlisted Honda H'ness or a Triumph Scrambler X. A Super Meteor is also on the list, but it feels too much for the city and little out of reach.
Between the Honda H'ness CB350 and the Triumph Scrambler 400 X, we would steer you toward the Triumph bike purely because it offers you significantly higher performance for not that much more money. The Scrambler is also a smooth, comfortable do-it-all motorcycle which has good passenger accommodations as well. The H'ness is also comfortable for two-up riding and is a good city bike, but it will not be able to match the Triumph's performance advantage.
We would advise you not to go for the Royal Enfield Super Meteor 650 because it is a rather heavy bike at 240kg, which will not be the best fit on traffic-riddled city roads. Moreover, its stiff rear suspension will be the bigger reason to look elsewhere. If you want a RE 650, we would recommend taking a look at the Royal Enfield Interceptor, as that has more pliant suspension and is also much lighter.
Hi Autocar, I'm looking to upgrade my 10-year-old Classic 350. I'm stuck between the Triumph Speed T4 and the new Scram 440. My daily commute is around 50 km, with the first half in city traffic and the rest on the highway. My main concerns are a comfortable ride and hassle-free maintenance. Both Triumph and RE showrooms are available in my city. Also, can you suggest any other bike in the same price range that offers comfort and reliability?
I have a 9-year-old Pulsar 150 and want to change. Iโm 35 now. I have seen the Honda SP160, Bajaj NS200, and Apache RTR 160 in the same segment. I am also considering different types like the CB350, Royal Enfield Hunter, and Avenger Cruise. Iโm confused about which one to buy. Any other options? I ride 60-80 km per week and occasionally go for long drives.
Hi Autocar, Iโm based in Delhi and looking for a daily-commuter bike that can also handle occasional long trips to places like Manali or Leh. My maximum budget is โน2.3 lakh. Iโm 6โฒ1โณ, so seat height is not a problem. Iโm not interested in the Classic 350.
In the adventure bike space, you can take a look at the TVS Apache RTX 300, which will be the best all-rounder because of its form factor. If you want a neo-retro bike, you can consider the Honda CB350 models, Triumph Speed T4 and the TVS Ronin. They all are smooth, comfortable, and have reasonable performance, although the Triumph will have a noticeable edge over the other two.
I want a new bike for daily commuting as well as long tours (4-5 inter-city or interstate trips per year). Iโm confused between the Meteor 350, Himalayan 450, and the Royal Enfield Scrambler XC. Which one should I pick?
Of the options you've shortlisted, the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 will be the best all-rounder with good highway manners, plush suspension for rough roads, and it's usable inside the city too, although its weight and general size need to be kept in mind.
The Meteor 350 and Triumph Scrambler 400 XC will be better in the city than the Himalayan, but out on the highway, your comfortable cruising speeds will be capped at 80-100kph. Take a thorough test ride before you decide.
Hi, Iโm a 37-year-old male, 5'10" tall, and looking for a fun and comfortable bike. Iโm confused between the Triumph Speed 400 and Honda CB350RS. Most of my driving will be in the city, with occasional highway rides. Which should I choose?
Both options you have shortlisted are lovely city ones, but have very different characters. The Triumph Speed 400 - while it has a neo-retro aesthetic - is quite a quick machine, but its performance doesn't come at the expense of real-world usability.
The Honda CB350RS - while it may look the most modern of the three CB350 models - has a relaxed, laidback riding experience.
We recommend taking a test ride of both bikes back to back and seeing which one you like more before you decide.
Iโve been using an FZ25 for almost 7 years and now want to upgrade to a higher-segment city bike. Iโm considering the Ninja 300, KTM 390, or Triumph 400. Which one should I choose?
The Triumph Speed 400 is ideal for city riding needs, thanks to its smooth, tractable engine. It is lightweight, easily manageable in traffic, and also the most affordable option from this lot of motorcycles. The KTM 390 Duke offers more aggressive performance, sharper handling and has more features, but the ride quality is on the stiffer side to keep in tune with its sporty nature.
The Kawasaki Ninja 300, the only twin-cylinder motorcycle on your list, has been around for a long time and hasn't received any modern updates. The cost of servicing and spare parts of Kawasaki is also on the higher side. We still suggest you take a test ride of all three bikes to see which one suits you best.
I currently ride a Honda Activa 125, and Iโm now planning to upgrade to a proper bike. Iโm considering the Triumph Scrambler 400 XC for city commuting and occasional off-road weekend rides. Iโm open to other bikes too that can handle Bengaluru city traffic and light trail/off-road excursions well - any suggestions?
You can definitely learn on a Triumph Scrambler 400 XC, as it's a very forgiving 400cc 40hp machine; however, we would steer you toward the Hero Xpulse 210 instead.
Considering you're also going to do some off-roading and you're simultaneously also going to be learning to ride a motorcycle, the Xpulse is a more forgiving machine than the Scrambler 400 and will be a better fit for city usage as well.
Iโm confused between two bikes โ the HondaโฏCB350RS and the Triumph Speed T4 โ both are priced similarly. My daily ride will be around 25 km, and I also love to do occasional touring in the mountains (no off-roading). Which one should I pick?
Both options you have shortlisted are very capable inside the city and will be decent out on the highway, too. Between the two, we believe the Triumph Speed T4 offers you more for your money in terms of performance and badge value, too, if that's a consideration for you. The CB350RS is a good bike in its own right, and we would recommend a long test ride of both so you can decide which one you prefer more.
