Triumph Thruxton 400

From a press release byTriumph:

The legendary Thruxton name makes its return with the all-new Thruxton 400, a modern interpretation of an icon that defined an era. Celebrated for its unmistakable cafe racer attitude and racing heritage, a Thruxton has always embodied style, performance, and character. Now, that spirit is reimagined for a new generation, delivering the perfect balance of timeless design and contemporary engineering.

The classic Triumph engine profile is complemented by a sculpted fuel tank, which is a fusion of flowing lines and sharp contemporary contours, with the Triumph triangle badge. A new fairing houses the classic round LED headlight, contrasting with the sporty and stylish bar end mirrors, blending tradition with innovation. Clip-on handlebars lower the front end for a more assertive stance, while the color-coded bullet seat cowl, shortened rear mudguard and number plate hanger, plus a compact LED light contribute to a minimalist, purposeful rear. The upswept sports silencer completes the look, with a seamless, flowing exhaust line.

Four vibrant color schemes feature sleek graphics and sporty contrast accents on the fuel tank, fairing and seat cowl, while the Matte Phantom Black side panel carries an aluminum finish badge bearing the Thruxton name.

The Phantom Black and Aluminum scheme features wide diagonal stripes of color across the fuel tank and seat cowl, with Racing Red accents on the fairing and seat cowl. The Pearl Metallic White and Storm Grey paint scheme includes flashes of Caribbean Blue on the seat cowl and fairing, while the Metallic Racing Yellow with Aluminum Silver design features a Metallic Racing Yellow fairing with Phantom Black accents and Aluminum stripes that carry through on the fuel tank and seat cowl.

With optimized ergonomics and a dedicated chassis, the new Thruxton 400 delivers a fun and sporty ride. The new chassis and revised suspension setup provide a sharper, more responsive feel, while the sporty handlebar and footpeg position give an engaged riding experience. The new clip-on handlebars are 1.6 in (40mm) narrower and 9.7 in (246mm) lower than those on the Speed 400, while the rear-set footpegs are positioned 3.4 in (86mm) further back and 1.1 in (27mm) higher. This rotates the rider forward, creating a true cafe racer riding posture.

Black anodized 1.7 in (43mm) upside-down big piston forks with 5.3 in (135mm) of travel optimized for sporty poise and response, and a preload-adjustable gas mono-shock rear suspension unit with 5.1 in (130mm) wheel travel, enhancing the bike’s agility and control for a more focused ride. Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tiresoffer a sporty and grippy feel, ensuring confidence in every corner.

Just like the rest of the 400 range, the latest rider technology is seamlessly integrated into the Thruxton 400, with an analogue speedometer and an LCD tachometer display with USB-C charging port. A ride-by-wire throttle, switchable traction control, torque assist clutch and ABS ensures rider confidence.
Powered by the most powerful iteration of the TR-series engine yet, with all the same enhancements as the Tracker 400, the 398cc engine revs higher and harder, delivering a thrilling top-end while maintaining the smooth, torque-rich performance and rich, distinctive soundtrack that defines the Triumph experience.

From the new polished Monza-style fuel cap to Thruxton’s meticulous paintwork, every element of the design reflects Triumph’s unwavering commitment to craftsmanship and premium quality. Each detail has been thoughtfully engineered and finished to the highest standards, creating a motorcycle that blends striking aesthetics with technical precision.

The engine features machined cooling fins contributing towards its clean, uncluttered profile, while the stylish and lightweight cast aluminum wheels and four-piston radial caliper deliver both style and performance, seamlessly blending form and function in true Thruxton style.
