In this video I try and give an honest opinion on the Triumph SPEED 400. This is simply an awesome awesome awesome machine (YES I SAID IT 3 TIMES!) I think it’s one of the most handsome looking bikes available on the market particularly in that red colour with the contrast with the black details and gold suspension arms. The engine is a peach! and the bike handles like a dream. It really is a lot of bike for the money I think. It’s very comfortable and is super economical.
I would suggest booking one out for a test ride if you’re thinking of getting one.

These titles are a joke. Who writes them? I mean…'my honest review!'. Are there any dishonest reviews? Phuddu bana rahen hain. Tung aa gaya..
Mine is ordered. Swapped a Harley twin cam that I didn't like. Only glitch in the process, the bike is expected in April. Wonder if that's due to some wankers lobbing missiles in the Red Sea, so causing shipping to detour around Africa…. Had a short test ride on a Speed. Shockingly good!!! Itching to ride it soon!!
0:02 Try to use rear brakes man..
Nice riding! Also this is the best review of the bike I`ve seen so far.
Triumph reinvent the Yamaha SR 500. 😂😂
Hi From France, I test it on January 31st, same great feeling on that bike, I expect a non torquy engine but no it is reasonably torquy and Reva well, exhaust sound just right, rear view very good, easy to handle brake clutch shifter. Only the fix lever could be replaced by adjustable ones.The power is just at the right level not too less not too much but still satisfying and giving motor bike feeling on which power is manageable. I don’t know if I take the blue or red?
No centre stand and chain drive, not for me then.!!
Nothing added here that we haven't seen in a score or more other rider impression/reviews. I'm not sure why there were frequent comparisons to the 400X…They're practically the same bike so it's a null contribution.
There was no recorded "testing" of the 400s known software spots and the reference to the testers indebtedness to the Triumph dealer the bike came from is a virtual flag indicating no fault will be found that might impact on the availability of test bikes in the future.
Really cool video! What do you use to record it?
nice thanks bro!
Just binged a few videos, didn't realise you're just up the road from me! Some super reviews,very clear and concise! Also any sport bikes on the horizon taking your fancy? Liked and subbed 👍🏼
Hopefully receive my red Speed 400 this month. Thanks for the review.
It looks so small.
How big are you? Height and weight
Better filmed, edited, and structured than most youtubers with big following have, great review- your effort shows!
Great to see Tommy Robinson doing motorcycle reviews 👏
Take these videos on a nice sunny day! Please!
Its a very beautiful looking bike … perfect in every way 🤩🤩🤩
As a chubby American. 6ft 240lbs finding an entry level bike has been dificult. Where i live i have a section of interstate i have to drive daily for my commute to work. It seems like it handled your motorway quite well. I couldnt read the speedo, but my section of commute is 70mph do you think it will handle running at that speed for an hour or will it buzz the nethers to oblivion?
Is it really a retro though? I feel it doesn’t have the speed twin character
Do you have a link to the dishonest review ? I like having options.
I have one, there are lots of issues with the ignition – won't turn on frequently, sometimes the engine warning lit up, sometimes abs and traction control,
One time the ignition completely cut off while overtaking no abs, traction control… I felt like I was going to heaven/ hell somewhere 🤣.
Finally the dealer replaced the keys and immobilizer control unit ( in just 996km)
The funniest thing I've seen in my 400 was the distance to empty — it never ever showed an accurate reading.
But… Everything else is pretty good and pretty impressive.
I own one, purchase it for 2.8 Lakhs INR around 2500 euros.
Happy with the purchase, there was an issue, bike stopped suddenly while pressing clutch for too long. Now it's resolved with update, not sure if it's still in the exported bikes.
Great review, no body ever get's out on the motor way as you call it there. Talking about being able to flat foot, and that the bike is lite, and does not get blown around in windy conditions. These are the things I want to know. Not just power and cornering. Thanks.
Would you say this motorcycle can go up hills? or even go across some rougher terrain? Is it good for exploring and adventure type rides?
Some test riders have raised up the issue of vibration in higher rpm. You didn't mention the issue. Someone commented it's a deal-breaker.
Be interesting to see how it sells in the US where you have to go 85mph to pass someone.
I wonder if you guys also get the bike made in india or atleast components made in India. Often the components and build quality is astonishingly of lower grade of the ones sold here in india.
First impression; ANOTHER bike with miss matched gold forks FFS !!!!!!!!
very nice video for us!
Great video, loads of info without any silly music. Will have to have a go on one. I have a Himalayan as a winter/ fun bike and although its fast enough its really asthmatic in the mid range. This little trumpet looks a lot more lively. Nice one.
The bike looks a bit small for you
Is this motorcycle good for a 5’7” tall guy?
Thanks for your review. It appears that Triumph can make rather good smaller bikes too. If these had been available when I bought an MT03 a few years ago when getting back into biking I definitely would have tried and maybe bought one. I'm still very much in love with my Street Triple, now coming up to three years. :>)
Is it good for long rides?
I'm not keen on the bar-end mirrors – I ride all year round and use handlebar muffs!
I was about to order one, but suddenly LOTS of bad issues reported coming out of India.
Now considering ordering the CB500F instead.
Didn't like the way that van undertaken you
you love it and it's the best bike ever right?
Out of both 400's which one would you pick purely for tight twisty roads?
great video
Yes it's a looker apart from the hideous decals on the fuel tank. Those white arrows are terrible. The rest of it is A1.
