- Hi Guys, I've been waiting to make this review for a while... Here's my genuine ownership review of the Triumph Scrambler 400X having had it for over 5 months and 8000 KMS.
Do watch the entire video and if you feel there's anything I missed out on do let me know in the comments section below.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to a glitch I missed out on the Triumph Scrambler headlight review. Well the headlight is totally non existent. The stock headlight throw is very poor because of which I had to put on some temporary aux lights, although I will be upgrading to the Maddog Scout X lights soon.
Cheers!
Awesome review! Best review of the Scrambler 400x I have found. Scenery is beautiful.
For those of us that use standard measurements I have included conversions for all measurements in the video.
Distance at review- 8000 KM = 4,970.97 miles
Ride distance on longest ride - 2500 km = 1553.43 miles
speed in 3rd gear without having to downshift - 20-30 kmph = 12-18 mph
vibrations noticeable post - 120-130 kmph = 75-80 mph
top speed driven - 160 kmph = 99.5 mph (damn Alistair!)
idle cruising speed - 90-110 kmph = 56-68 mph
Gas mileage max- 33 kmpl = 77.6 mpg
city gas mileage - 27-28 kmpl = 63-65 mpg
average gas milage - 30-31 kmpl = 70-72 mpg
full tank range - 280-300 km = 174-186 miles
Service cost - Rs. 4773 - US $57.01 (This is so wildly out of reason in the US I am not converting other currency amounts for the video.)
Service lengths - 16,000 km = 9942 miles (Triumph rec.) 10,000 km = 6214 miles (Alistair rec)
Standard is metric you nonse
PLEASE NOTE: Due to a glitch I missed out on the Triumph Scrambler headlight review. Well the headlight is totally non existent. The stock headlight throw is very poor because of which I had to put on some temporary aux lights, although I will be upgrading to the Maddog Scout X lights soon.
I agree, the headlight is very poor. I am hoping that a replacement or upgrade becomes available as I do not really want to have auxiliary lights. Another problem I find at night is that the instrument display is way too bright. It’s bad enough that a quick glance at it is enough to significantly reduce your night vision momentarily which is very disconcerting.
When I enquired for my scram400x for aux lights in triumph service center, they told they dont have any for this 400 series. "Even installing an aftermarket fog lights would void warranty" is the feedback given by the service center. Did you face this issue/
What about windblast possibility on highway cruzing ?
Bhai I took Triumph scrambler 400x test yesterday and I am in love with that machine. Booked today in khaki green colour with accessories and discount it will cost me 3.25 lakhs. Also it's showroom and service centre is 2 kms away from my home in Danapur Patna.
Finally made up mind of buying this beauty, actually i was waiting on RE to launch the guerrilla 450 but sadly I'm disappointed,i was hoping the bike would be substantial in size as I'm 6.1 86 kilos but going by the looks guerrilla would be on thr same size as of hunter
Getting my delivery on 23rd of this month
Great choice!! Congratulations and ride safe!
True I'm almost as the same proportions as you 6ft and 83 kilos and was really interested in guerilla but anyways I'm saving for the 2025 adv390
Beautiful scenic shots….beautiful bike….nice review bro….no nonsense…..straight to the point….❤🎉
Thanks for your feedback, really appreciate it!
Ohh man.....youtube suggested your video...during watching i was thinking that at same location some guy has made review of his Bajaj N250 ...upon scrolling you list i saw that it was you only....after long time you came back on you tube...
Glad youtube suggested my video to you!
Good sensible review. 👍🏻
Accessories added are limited and purposeful unlike some who add a plethora of accessories that aren't required.
Couldn't agree more to that.
A very good review brothr 👍🫡 i am also frm goa, I recently bot a gen3 390 duke… and i hv a close frnd who owns a scrambler 400x, hv ridden it a couple of times and I totally agree to all that u spoke abt it in ur review video 👍 triumph has indeed done a fantastic job with its offerings - d speed400 and d scrambler 400x ✌️
@@vamanpolle thank you for the kind words
Yes please detailed video on maintenance
Good Video brother ❤
even i own a Scramb 400x
i've recently completed 8k kms, did a long tour of 4 states nearly 2.7k kms in total i would say the bike didn't gave any single problem (touchwood)
totally worth buying
as u said there are some negative points
we can cover it with after market accessories
i toh use it as my daily commuters bike & on highways i get 30kmpl average 😅which is best
according to my riding style
thank You
Nice presentation 👏👏👏, looking forward to watch similar videos in future ,keep it up
Bro u should do more of this! Simply spectacular standards.
Watching you ride tokd me all i need to know about the handling. 👍
Nice review, please make a video on fog light also, how these performs, cost and all .
Thanks, sure I'll make a video on that soon.
Very nice review my friend.. neat and clean content.. keep this going and you have a new subscriber. Cheers 😊
Thank you!
Beautiful video man
Nice review. Balanced and well produced.
Hey Alistair, great video. Well presented. Would love that video on maintenance, if you could. Looking to get this bike.
One question - at 5:02, I love the way the bike looks. Did you remove the back guard (don't know if that's what you call it) for service or maintenance? I would like to modify the bike to look like that and have the number plate attached just at end of back seat. I don't like the stock look of rear end with extended guard. Do you have any ideas or have you seen any videos regarding good modified looks? Thanks.
Hi. Great review. About the headlight- is it good enough for city usage?
Very nice! I have the same color on order, I get to pick it up in 3 days! I took a test ride and loved it :D
Great review brother all bike have some cons but other youtuber only told us pro,s keep itmup good luck
Here's a viewer's feedback -
Use a nd filter for minimizing glares and a little lesser contrast while editing, also use some jugaad for making your video more stable.
nice honest review, im glad to hear that with your height... you have no issues in managing the bike ...
I'm 172cm, am thinking of getting one ... hence my apprehension 😅
Do take a proper test ride through different road conditions, that'll help you make the right decision.
Always keep one leg on the gear and the leg near the back brake down. In case of turns or full stops. That way you control the stop and launch with front brake. Also offroad riding shoes and the high sole they have would make it easier. @@reubendk
@@alistair.37 thank you very much for the wise tips ... 🙂
Need a video , how to ride a vehicle properly to get high mileage and how to maintain the bike
Okay sure, I'll make one soon.
Nice review, I feel the very same. I have recently got one. But could ride 100 km only in ten days because of my govt. job. (The Triumph showroom wherefrom I have purchased the bike during the ₹ 10000 discount offer to my workplace is 400 km approx.) Please do a headlight/auxiliary lght video review, I am yet to ride at night.
Well made video. Thank you.
Brilliant video .....loved it ❣️🕉️
Helpful video with beautiful places❤
Thank you!
Great review bro..what about front brake pad issue that you were faced,did the issue resolved..and did u changed for sintered pads or organic pads are doing good for you??Most of them pointing like brakes aren’t fine..that’s why I’m asking..ur thoughts on brakes..
please make a video on modification youve done on your bike pls
Very Nice video & well explained bro👌🏻
Are you facing any engine noise issue?
Thank you! I haven't faced that issue yet but there's something wrong with my front brake pads, somehow the brake pads material seemed to wear out very fast. Had to change them twice since last month.
@@alistair.37 Ohh what is the cost of that?
Make a video on how to maintain the bike. Your video quality and content is really good.👌
@@karankumar5222 the organic brake pads cost around Rs. 600 while the sintered ones cost Rs. 2600
@@karankumar5222 yes sure I'll make a video on that soon, really appreciate your feedback!
Hi brother..pls make a video regarding how to maintain and how to get a decent mileage because im getting just 20-22 kmpl..
Yes sure I'll make a video on it soon.
Nice video, Good editing
Thank you!
great review lad
Great video 👍🏼 please make a video of maintaining it during monsoon. 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Yes please!
Nice video, Can you share about wind blast experience during highway cruising
Hey owner of a Speed here, could you do a video of the brake pad inspection? And other general daily and weekly checks?
Yes sure I'll make a video on that soon
Pls do a video on maintainance of bike
Okay sure I will soon
Please share the maintenance tips in next video.. because I ordered this bike.. (my first bike)
Very good and informative video
Great informative video it was amazing to watch . I have a question, Is RSA provided really helpful?
Not really, it's very unlikely you'd need RSA within the 1st year of ownership.
Like your video, please make more content ❤
One feedback:- please adjust your GoPro angel!
Thanks for your feedback, I'll definitely take it into consideration!
@Alistair...can you please share maintenance tips...Thanks
I enjoyed your video , as you and others mentioned I’m interested in your aux light set up . 1200 km’s on mine so far , what’s the tire tread depth like after 8k .
Wa bhai wa...well explained!
Hey, please response, Is this comfortable in long tour? how often you had to take breaks? was there any hip numbness or thigh pain during long tour? I own hunter 350 and it is not for long rides. I need another bike for long tours, should I buy this? or Himalayan 450? please tell me how comfortable this bike is. My height is 5'8".
Nicely done thank you 😊
Thank you for the review. I too own a Scrambler 400X, and have done my first 1,000 Km on it now. I love it. One thing I noticed though, is that at low speeds - anything below 40 Km/hr - the motorcycle exhibits some jerkiness. It doesn't matter which gear I am on. And this happens on perfectly flat, smooth road surfaces while keeping a steady throttle. It does not go smoothly, but rather continuous back-and-forth jerking, and the slower you go, the more noticeable it is. Is this normal? I am looking for feedback from people who own the bike. Is this a normal single-cylinder behavior, or is there something wrong with my bike? Thank you.
i face the same issue
How you clean your bikes exhaust pipe bend area which changes its colour?
Where did you get the engine guard from??
Which bike would be the best choice bro? Dominar or Scrambler 400x
Good detaiing
Thank you!
would you recommend it for highway touring, windblast must be heavy right? noise in the ears must be annoying.
Yes of course, it's perfect for highway crusing. Windblast is evident only post 110-120 kmph. Tbh in India we don't have highways that are safe to ride beyond 120 constantly. So it comes down to cruising at around 100-110 which is very comfortable on the Scrambler 400X
Himalayan 450 is ADV this is scrambler which is Rs.48-63k affordable than Himalayan so they are not in same range or class.
how is the vibration felt firstly between 75-90 kmph, 90-110 and 110-125 Is it at the same league as in many RE 350cc bikes like the hunter, meteor etc. Thanks
Good Review
Good one bro
Thank you!
Bro where did you do smoke paint on wisor
Got it wrapped from a local accessory shop in Goa
Are the break lever guards on scrambler removable ?
getting 18 kmpl in tight traffic.....(is it normal ?)daily use.
In highway 32+
1:42 onwards, What road is that? Really scenic!
That's Amboli ghat (Goa-Maharashtra border)
Hi bro, I really enjoyed this video and learned a lot about this bike. You said you got 27 - 33 kmpl city/Highway mileage. I would like to see a video on how much speed you maintain or any specific rpm you cruise also how do you maintain your bike to get this good mileage. Thanks a lot bro.
Thank you! I'll be making a dedicated video on the maintenance of this bike soon, I'll try to cover the mileage aspects as well in that.
@@alistair.37 I'm eagerly waiting for the video bro, mine is arriving next week. It would be veryyy useful if you could post the video earlier. Thank you bro!
I had a question, as a pillion don’t you feel you will get thrown behind and do you feel it could use aftermarket backrest
I took test ride of scrambler and as pillion I was scared for my life cause every time it felt like I was about to fall behind , as a rider I am already a huge fan of it but just this issue is making me think about it
Please let us know these scenic places where you have shot this video.Thanks
It's all around Goa mate!
👏👏💯
Bro what is your height I am 5foot 8" Without shoes will my height be a problem?
Stalling is a common issue with all the Initial users? what the fcuk does the engineering team listening the test runners or they don't hire professionals..
Which aux lights did you go for, are they any good?
Can you please share the link?
Mansion bike maintainability
How much money u spent on this to get it
18-20 mileage in city 😢
And what happened to your bajaj n250..
Sold it a few months ago and got the Scrambler 400X
Bhai tera name kya hai
Bro I do own scrambler 400x, in my ignition keyhole shutter (magnetic shutter closes when key is not in ignition) is missing, its open as of now.
is it a issue in my motorcycle or you also having same key hole.
I think you should get your key set replaced.
No bro I haven't faced that issue. Did you inform the guys at Triumph service centre about it?
@@alistair.37 so when key is taken off from the ignition your keyhole closes with shutter? because I asked one more guy he also said key hole is open just wanted to confirm
@@pratheeekk in your bike keyhole is closed with shutter after key is taken out?
