Triumph Thruxton 400

Quick review

It gets a slimmer redesigned tank and tail, a small front fairing with a raked windscreen, bar-end mirrors and a removable rear cowl.

It shares its instrument cluster with the other Triumph 400s and it’s a combination of an analogue speedometer and a digital tachometer.

It gets a slimmer fuel tank, but the capacity remains 13 litres

Powered by a 398cc liquid-cooled single as the Speed 400, but with 2hp more which now peaks at 42hp at 9,000rpm.

At 795mm, the seat height is the lowest among Triumph’s 400s, which when paired with the slim fuel tank make this motorcycle quite accessible for shorter riders.

With 10mm more travel than the Speed 400 at both ends, it does a commendable job of ironing out potholes and bumps—especially on city roads and bad tarmac.

At Rs 2.74 lakh (ex-showroom), the Thruxton 400 is priced Rs 50,000 lower than the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650.
