Definitely one of the best "real reviews" out there. (You get the feeling a lot of vloggers give unduly positive reviews, to obtain the next freebie ride, from which ever dealership they are using). Clearly, if you have purchased a bike for your own use, it's a more genuine perspective. I have a green one on order for the summer. Can't wait.

I’m so pleased you’ve revisited the 400x and that you still love it! Great review and commentary as always. Don’t forget I was first to ask to buy it off you when you sell it after you’ve bought it! You didn’t say no so I consider the deal’s done. I think it’s an ideal winter bike for people over 6’. The Honda nx500 is also tempting but this Triumph is probably better for north Essex and Suffolk back “roads”.

Lovely bike . Good looking as are all Triumphs. This bike's a bit like a 350 RE Hunter that's been fed a bucket of oats and wants to go . If I was younger, I'd have one. I'm an old guy now , but not yet old enough for a RE Meteor 😇 or Classic 🧐 ! It doesn't bother me that it's made in India . I am sure that Triumph won't tolerate poor quality. If it were Chinese , I wouldn't even look at it .

Morning TAYM, nice day for a test ride, I took the road version out a few weeks ago, it's a nice looking bike and very comfortable, but yes I found it to feel a bit buzzy and revvy myself, I wouldn't enjoy riding it at 70 and above for very long , I think it would get annoying, but I think most buyers would enjoy it on the type of routes you've just done. Speaking of noise it sounds like someone was doing a bit of clay shooting in the background there? Keep your head down eh? 😅 Enjoy your weekend, cheers Mel . Oh and I'll try and get my dance in this weekend as well eh! 🕺 🕺

Great little bike for a taller person , interesting that some are saying the Speed model rides even better. In my opinion although very different in looks , the BSA now available discounted is a real rival . A much bigger and more grunty single for around the same price. ... despite being a Triumph fan boy I think It might be the one I'd go for given the choice, not as smoothly finished as the Triumph but more bike for the money in many ways?

I think my GS400E was 36bhp. To me, then it was a big bike. I'm back at 20bhp now with Ernie the Classic 350 but it's perfect for today's roads and speed limits. Somehow at 60, I'm having more fun going slow these days. If there's a change of government this year (and that looks likely) they'll roll out many more speed limits over the next few years too especially 20mph zones.

Starting to see some comments from owners in India about a top end rattling on or around the time of the first service.

These new 400s are great in concept, aesthetically pleasing, well specced, have good performance & economy figures, are well priced...but sadly let down by multiple gremlins that occur randomly involving the overly sensitive RBW throttle, instrument panel and ECU/Fuel mapping. In a years time these problems will hopefully been addressed but right mow for me they don't represent peace of mind buying.

watching this video and many of yours, seems like England has increased temporary speed limits. signs hung over other signs and then a tripod signage. so yesterday was 35, today is 20, then its 30 the next. those are speed traps if you ask me. when i go north to New Jersey to my brothers, they had those towns you would pass through, it would go from 55 or 50 MPH and then one speed sign stating 25! gatcha! and they would pull over a group of cars as they would have 5 or 6 cops sitting behind a sign or in the parking lot of a gas station and they come out like geese flying in a V formation and corral us all up and you would know who would be in the front of the pack! its okay, i get my ticket first and on to the next town where you speed through just as fast because i am mad from the last town.
