Triumph Tracker 400 first ride — more than just a new name on the tank? | evo India

The Triumph 400 range now has five motorcycles — and the Triumph Tracker 400 is the latest. At ₹2.46 lakh ex-showroom, it costs ₹12,000 more than the Speed 400. Is it worth it? Or is this just a sticker job? It is not a sticker job. The Tracker 400 takes the Speed 400's silhouette and sharpens it with flat tracker inspired lines — a 23mm wider, 134mm lower handlebar, footpegs are higher and 86mm more rearset, a flatter seat, Thruxton 400 tail section, Scrambler 400 X dual barrel exhaust and a race number panel on the side that ties the flat tracker identity together. Under the tank, the Tracker 400 runs the 349cc liquid-cooled single in Thruxton 400 tune — 39.5bhp at 8,750rpm and 32Nm at 7,500rpm. That is 3.1bhp more than the Speed 400, delivered higher in the rev range, with excellent refinement and strong tractability. The ergonomics land in a sweet spot between the relaxed Speed 400 and the committed Thruxton 400 — 805mm seat height, engaging without being punishing. The dual-purpose MRF REVZ-D1 tyres hold the chassis back slightly and the rear ABS cannot be switched off. But at ₹2.46 lakh the Triumph Tracker 400 delivers fresher styling, a more powerful engine and a package that is the reviewer's pick over the Speed 400. In Triumph's 400 range, it earns its place — not as a rebadged Speed 400 but as something genuinely distinct. #evoIndia #Triumph #TriumphTracker400 #TriumphMotorcycles #BikeReview #MotorcycleReview #TriumphIndia Want more #ThrillOfDriving videos?
