Scrambler 400 X Reality Check
Is the Triumph Scrambler 400 X worth its ridiculous asking price of 3.23 Lakh, On Road Pune?
Does the Scrambler four hundred X, offer higher value, than a used three-ninety Duke? In today's used bike market, a used three-ninety Duke, in buyable condition, is available for as low as sixty three thousand rupees. Even if you insist on a slipper-clutch equipped model, you can get it for as low as eighty-five thousand. Check out the link in the pinned comment, to see the current resale price of three ninety dukes for BS-three, BS-four and BS-six models. Now lets keep all emotions aside, and look at some objective facts, about the Scrambler, and the Duke. Both have one-fifty mm of suspension travel at the front as well as the rear. Both have a seventeen inch rear wheel, but the Duke's rear tyre is ten mm wider than the Scrambler. Duke's front tyre is also ten mm wider than the Scrambler's and what makes matters worse for the Scrambler its poverty-spec tyres, which are not-even H-rated, and their knobby pattern gives them pathetic grip while cornering even at moderate speeds.
