I once posted a pic of me on a Z900RS and someone commented that I made the bike look like a Grom. The Z900RS is a pretty normal sized bike

Did the Triumph feel ‘bigger’ than the RE Hunter you rode?
No. Maybe a bit smaller. It's hard to tell.

Triumph’s Scrambler 400 X Offers More Than the Speed 400
On the back of Triumph’s all-new entry-level single-cylinder Speed 400, the company delivers the Scrambler 400 X. We go for a US-exclusive ride.

They had them in my local dealer this week. Not to ride, just pose on, and inspect. Triumph are taking them round the country. They looked pretty good, and felt good also. Order now for April delivery.
One Indian website reports gas mileage for the Scrambler 400X. It comes out to 64 mpg.

i thought so too. rode all 3 RE 350's & liked the hunter best. just can't buy into their 350 motor, but they all look good. sat on the triumph the same day.
I rode the hunter. I was OK with the motor and handling. I wasn't comfortable on it because i thought the seat sucked and the bars were a little low. I think the Triumph would be more comfortable but without riding it I can't say for sure. I expect I'll get a chance to ride one this fall at the Barber Vintage Festival. I also have a friend considering buying a 400 scrambler. If he does I expect to get the chance to ride it.

Well Win, I’ve got a deposit on a 400X in Hendersonville. I’ll try to be over there when you are in Saluda this summer so you can get a ride on it while trying to infect me with the scooter virus . . .
I will try to ride the Saluda area this year but it will be a busy year so I don't know if I will make it. You should come to Maggie valley for Beat the Heat.

Would love to; will most likely be in NC and will try to fit it in.
Some Indian owners have reported a stalling problem. I think Triumph India reflashed bikes and it seems it took care of the problem. One British owner on ADV Rider reported his bike stalled. Will the US bike have this problem too?

Triumph Scrambler 400 X
Nevermind the weight. Over 200lbs is unacceptable and where's the heated seat?

I'm sure they will sort it out but this is one reason I don't like buying first model year bikes.Some Indian owners have reported a stalling problem.

BMW had a similar problem with their G650 series. BMW even issued a recall. I had a 2016 G650GS that had that stalling problem. The reflash didn't cure the problem. I got rid of it pretty quickly.
Lots of reviews out there already but I think this one is really worth watching. It's from MotoDeal. While the guy is from the Philippines, he's covering the launch in Thailand. Beautiful ride and insightful review... in English.
