Triumph Thruxton 400 Spotted- Triumph Or Royal Enfield Which One Should You Choose?

This would be the second bike that comes out of the Bajaj and Triumph communion in India

Thruxton has been a known moniker from Triumph and has been a preferred motorcycle for the enthusiasts abroad. With the fast approaching launch of the new 400 cc Thruxton it might soon gain the same prominence in India as well. The Bike would most probably share its underpinnings with that of the speed 400. The Bike was seen testing under heavy camouflage in India a few times. The testing in the international market indicates a possible launch in Europe as well.

As per the video the bike would have the complete retro look with frame mounted fairings, a round headlight as well as clip on handlebars. This would be the second bike that comes out of the Bajaj and Triumph communion in India.

In Terms of performance its possible that the new bike might possibly be powered by a 398 cc liquid cooled engine that would produce about 39.5 PS of power and a peak torque of around 37.5 Nm. Triumph might possibly give the new bike a different state of tune. This can change the performance and acceleration of the new bike. The Bike would have a aggressive seating position. It became apparent as the rider riding the bike had to relax his arms as he was placed in rather committed position.

Older Sightings Of The Thruxton 400

Before the Indian Testing Phase, the bike had already been tested in the southern parts of Europe where Enthusiasts were able to grab a few snapshots of the bike. The snapshots were shared by Motorcycle News.com. Based on the looks the bike would have a authentic round headlamp cladded in a café racer style fairing that extends till the tank.

Thruxton 400 New Looks

While the bike was in the usual camouflage, but the logo etched at the transmission hub gave the vehicle away. The bike would be based on the speed 400 and would be powered by the same engine. Triumph has been planning to grab a grasp in the international markets as well with their new Thruxton 400. The new bike would have 39.5 bhp of power if powered by the same engine as that of the Triumph Speed.

The bike had upside down forks, which would probably have the same 140 mm travel that was also witnessed with the Triumph speed 400. The bike had the same 17 inch rims similar to the speed as well.

The partial analogue partial digital instrument cluster looks like it was taken from the speed as well. The bike had certain design cues from the departing 1200 cafe racer that the brand is about to stop producing soon as well. Since the bike was seen in Europe it had a blank space for the number plate. The bike would have a single front disc and caliper module complete with ABS. The findings confirm that Triumph might launch the vehicle soon.

Royal Enfield or Triumph Thruxton

If you are not big on the Cafe Racer Appeal Going For the Royal Enfield’s might be much better option for you.
