Triumph Speed 400 gets special offer with ₹7,600 worth of free accessories
Triumph India is celebrating its Modern Classic anniversary month with a special treat for Speed 400 buyers. As part of the celebration, the brand is offering a complimentary accessory package worth ₹7,600. This limited-time offer is valid only until 15th August, giving enthusiasts a short window to grab some practical and stylish add-ons at no extra cost. The package includes a tank pad, knee pads, a windscreen, and a lower engine guard—all designed to blend aesthetics with functionality. The tank pad not only enhances the motorcycle's visual appeal but also shields the paint from scratches while providing extra grip for the rider's knees. The knee pads serve a similar dual role of style and comfort. The lower engine guard, with its clean and minimal design, helps safeguard the engine during minor drops or mishaps. Meanwhile, the compact fly screen adds a sportier touch to the front profile and, for some riders, may reduce windblast at higher speeds. 2025 Triumph Speed 400 – Chassis and Dimensions The latest Speed 400 retains its robust hybrid spine frame with a bolt-on rear subframe. The handlebar spread measures 814 mm, offering a comfortable riding posture, while the seat is set at a rider-friendly height of 790 mm. The wheelbase remains at 1,377 mm, ensuring a balance between stability and agility—traits for which the Speed 400 has been appreciated.

Triumph Thruxton 400 debuts in India:Retro Racer for the Modern Rider
The revered Thruxton name returns to Triumph's portfolio with the launch of the all-new Thruxton 400, a motorcycle that brings classic café racer styling to a new generation of riders. Making its global debut in India, this latest addition to Triumph's Modern Classic range, combines heritage design with contemporary engineering and performance. The Thruxton 400 draws (its) inspiration from the original Thruxton racers of the 1960s, yet this new iteration is purpose-built for modern-day streets. Its design captures the essence of a true café racer with low-slung clip-on handlebars, a sculpted fuel tank with knee recesses, bar-end mirrors, and a colour-coded rear seat cowl that completes its streamlined silhouette. From the front fairing to the slim, upswept tail section, the Thruxton 400 has the poised stance of a classic racer, with just the right touch of modernity. At the heart of the machine is the proven TR-Series 398cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine. Tuned for more performance, it produces 42 PS, making it the most powerful in its segment. The refined top-end performance adds a more thrilling character to the ride, while still maintaining smooth and usable power delivery across the rev range. The Thruxton 400 also gets its own dedicated chassis, distinct from the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X. It features a revised suspension setup aimed at delivering a sportier and more committed ride. With 43mm USD front forks and a twin shock setup at the rear, Triumph promises sharper handling and greater rider engagement, especially when tackling twisty roads or quick city runs. Modern technology is subtly integrated into the Thruxton's otherwise retro appeal. It features a ride-by-wire throttle for precise response, switchable traction control for added safety, and a torque-assist clutch for reduced effort in traffic. While the styling stays true to its roots, these features bring it firmly in line with today's expectations for everyday usability. Attention to quality and finish remains a core part of the Thruxton 400's appeal. From its deep gloss paint schemes to the brushed metal touches and precise detailing, the bike carries forward Triumph's reputation for premium craftsmanship. The use of high-quality components and thoughtful engineering also means that the Thruxton 400 benefits from class-leading service intervals, reducing the cost of ownership and long-term maintenance. The Thruxton 400 is expected to resonate strongly with younger enthusiasts looking for a bike that blends old-school charm with modern-day performance. With the Indian motorcycle market already responding positively to the 400cc Modern Classic range, the Thruxton's unique proposition as a focused café racer adds another layer of excitement. The new Triumph Thruxton 400 is priced at ₹2,74,137 (ex-showroom). Motorscribes, in association with The Hindu, brings you the latest in cars and bikes. Follow them on Instagram on @motorscribe
