Triumph Speed 400 vs Scrambler 400X: Design
Triumph has effectively distinguished the two in terms of style, giving each of them the appearances that go with their distinct traits. The neo-retro appearance of the Speed 400 is modelled after the Speed Twin 900 and the 1200 and has straightforward, flowing design lines. The bike stands out and is aesthetically pleasant at the same time thanks to the well-shaped tank with the large Triumph emblem above it. The motorcycle is offered in a total of three colour schemes: Carnival Red, Caspian Blue, and Phantom Black. The Scrambler 400X, meanwhile, features knuckle guards, a headlamp grille, an optional raised fender, a cushioned handlebar brace, and double-stacked exhausts to give it a unique scrambler appearance. The Triumph emblem is 'within' a large white stripe that runs up the tank of the 400X, which is also available in the colours Matt Khaki Green and Fusion White, Carnival Red and Phantom Black, and Phantom Black and Silver.
