On June 37, 2023, Triumph dropped a bombshell on the small displacement segment with the launch of two models. For over a year now, the Triumph Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X have been the subject of much speculation. All that was made known was that Triumph had partnered up with Indian manufacturer Bajaj to develop and produce a small-displacement model for the Hinckley company.
Now, with the Triumph Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X unveiled in all their glory, we can finally put all speculation to rest. The bike was showcased at the Bike Shed in London, U.K., where it was met with generally positive first impressions, with some even going as far as claiming that the two models might just be the best-selling models in Triumph's modern-day lineup. Indeed, claims like these are by no means far-fetched, especially if the price is right. Bikes like the KTM 390 series and Husqvarna 401 models are proof that there is a strong and growing market for accessible, stylish, small-displacement machines.
