My name is Kevin. I live near Lake Erie in Southeastern Michigan. I’ve been following your videos and I’m very impressed and I wanna thank you for taking the extra effort. I had mentioned buying a 15 tooth sprocket didn’t know where to get one and I appreciate your interesting articles and I follow you now and subscribe to your channel.
Thanks for posting. For me the 15 swap is working out great - I would have been able to do it quicker if I had seen this video first. I think this will help other less experienced people like me.
Definitely going to try this. Not that I would ever ride a motorcycle on the Pellissippi International Speedway. Thanks for detailing the process and the results in a usable and easily understood format.
No need to pull the axle. Just loosen up the adjusters to provide enough slack in the chain to remove the old sprocket and install the new one. Just did mine the other day. I like the gearing change, bike just seems more calm in each gear.

I bought 400 X scrambler
Triumph should thank you. You’re half the reason I got one.
@kevinlayne6946 Thanks Kevin! I appreciate the kind words and I appreciate you watching and subscribing!
You live in a beautiful neighborhood
Great video, I shall do the same on my Speed Twin
I love your videos. I just had my Scrambler delivered yesterday and I'm looking forward to modding it. I miss Tennessee tremendously with all the mountains and curvy roads. We hope to move back that way by the end of the year.
Excellent video and audio. That engine and the gearing...beautiful. I did the same change on my first V-strom and will do it immediately when I get the Scrambler.
I was very interested in this as well but I put bigger knobbier tires on my bike and that helped tremendously with the short gearing, it still even with taller tires feels like it could have better gear ratio so I may go this route! Keep up the good work bud!
Thanks! What tires did you go with?
This is definitely on my list of things to do sooner than later. I did the same thing with my CBR500R and it worked very well. I’m very happy with my scrambler overall. My only gripes are the really poor headlight performance and the massively over-brightness of the instrument display at night. Looks like you live in a nice part of the world. 👍😃
I believe I may have to do this. Thanks for the great videos
I use my Scrambler to deliver my bacon to Chefs in Lower Alabama
You know its funny how certain exits, interchanges, interstates have the same flavor whether its Tennessee or all the way down to Ocala Florida. Unless there is a major elevation change in view, they all look the same! The only clue is the names and numbers on the signs.
Thank you for this great fix for better top end performance! It's on my list of things to do. Question: can you make a recommendation of better foot pegs that will fit the 400x? Something wider and more dirt bike style...thank you!
Great video. I'll do this on my 400X (music is just a tad too loud)
Way too loud, ouch ..have headphones on.
What are the down sides of doing this? I’m a new rider and picked up my 400x a couple of days ago.
Great bike, great video! I'm also thinking about changing the sprocket. I've seen all of your 400X videos and I'm a little surprised that you seem to think the front brake is OK. I find the braking effect very poor and you have to use a lot of hand force. Are you thinking about it or do you perhaps have a solution?
Already ordered a 15 ( KTM 390) frond sprocket
Great video. Looks like a project is ahead. Curious about your flyscreen. What kind is it and does make much difference? Helmet roar? Thanks.
@kennneee1 the flyscreen is just a cheap universal one off ebay. It is pretty short and doesn't seem to do much at all.
I’m thinking of a triumph 400 test rode one last week nice little bike but I ride a gsxs 1000 with a map etc etc makes sense to buy the little bike to hold on to my license!!! Not sure I could handle the hp drop I’m torn tbh
This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks! Question, the link to purchase the sprocket shows a Duke 390, and my assumption is it is interchangeable, correct? I'll be ordering mine now. I tried ordering the Speed 400 sprocket but could not get confirmation from my Triumph parts dealer that the Speed sprocket would work, he said the spindles showed a different part number. I was going to order one anyway as the sprockets are inexpensive, but I am just going to order your recommended sprocket. Thanks again, this will really help on the long stretches of highway I'll be doing on my annual motocamping trip in a few weeks!
Haha never mind, just watched the end of the video where you discuss the interchanability with the Duke 390! Thanks again
Interesting I will do this mod it would of been good if you had done a 0 to 60 mph Comparison before and after the change, Also in the video you didn't enable off road mode! Because the traction control light was coming on! Also when off road mode is set by holding down the button for 5 seconds you know it in the mode because a light is permantly on the dash when it is
What kind of phone mount do you use? The one that I have is centered (which is what I wanted) but it sticks up so high that it covers half the guage cluster in front of me.
@AnonYmous-gi8wf I don't use a phone mount. What's on the bars is a Chigee AIO-5. See description for link to their page. Awesome!
Just ordered my 15 tooth sprocket. I was recently asked, why not use the 15 tooth from the Speed 400? Are those not available from Triumph? Also, what’s the tail bag you are using? I like how it connects to the bike. Thanks for the great videos! Keep them coming!
Thanks, lots of other 400X content on my channel! The 15T from Triumph is currently on backorder, which is why I went with the JT Sprocket. The tail bag is Triumph, but not sure what it's really designed for. Video about it here: ruclips.net/video/IQI0dfSXKAk/видео.html
@@RidgeRoamerthanks for this video! I ordered the 15 tooth sprocket you recommended and put it on last night. Works great! Makes the lower gears behave much better. Great video!
You can always use one from ktm 390 bike
Does changing the sprocket void the warranty at all?
Only if you mess something up while doing it.
Is that the rubber cushion sprocket?
@IsaPorterMusic it's available with or without. Mine has the rubber cushion.
I don’t know why, but it bothers me that Triumph puts the chain on the wrong side.
What happens if you also replace the rear sprocket?
@anandlakkaraju6825 it changes the gear ratio again... up or down depending on how many teeth rear sprocket.
@@RidgeRoamer so it will go back to its original behavior then
@@RidgeRoamer one last thing - does this change help reduce vibes at 90 mph . In your video I couldn't get a clear view of your mirrors vibrating. Hence asking 😁
@anandlakkaraju6825 it lowers engine rpms at any given speed, so yes, does reduce vibes too. But at 90, it still won't be smooth
what about a smaller rear spockt also
@farzinbi definitely an option... I am happy with this setup though. I think much taller and you would start to lose the low end grunt.
GPS speed or it's a waste of time watching ..
@@leeinwis yup. It's in there...
