9 kg heavier . Suspension for both comes in the form of 43mm big-piston USD forks with a monoshock rear with an external reservoir ( the Scrambler gets longer travel versions ) while braking comes in the form of a 300mm disc with a four-piston caliper on the Speed 400 and a 320mm disc and four-piston caliper on the Scrambler . Both have ABS braking and traction control . The ABS on the Scrambler is also switchable for riding
off-road , which is a nice touch by Triumph . Both bikes also ship with a switchable traction control system with a simple on or off selection . That means riders can be assured of maximum safety or maximum fun with the new bikes . Instrumentation is a stylish analogue speed with an integrated LCD screen with all the expected features including a gear position indicator , fuel gauge , and a digital tachometer . Triumph has also included a USB-C charging socket that allows for on-the-move charging of handlebar-mounted devices , such as smartphones and navigation systems . Triumph initially launched the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X into the Indian market , where they have received rave reviews across the board for their build quality and high spec . With Triumph ’ s previous LAMS offerings still well into the teens price-wise , the sub- $ 9000 Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X are sure to be a hit with Kiwi buyers who want to enter the world of Triumph Motorcycles .
