Delhi, September 17, 2024: Bajaj Auto Ltd unveiled two new Triumph modern classic motorcycles today - the all-new Speed T4 and the MY25 Speed 400. Crafted in iconic Triumph style with class-leading performance, rider-focused technology and legendary Triumph fit and finish.

The all-new Speed T4 – For those who like a more relaxed ride

The Speed T4 is the latest member of the Triumph 400cc modern classic family. Boasting of a distinct ride character, the engine kicks in higher torque between 3500-5500 rpm giving you an enhanced low to mid speed rideability with fewer gear shifts. This has been achieved by increasing engine inertia by 30%, as compared to Speed 400, to bring in low rpm stability. Allowing you to cruise effortlessly at 100 kmph while you soak in the new deep exhaust note. Perfect for those who prefer a modern classic with an easy riding character. The Speed T4 comes with all the relevant technology that suit its relaxed ride character like manual throttle body control, slipper clutch, 43 mm telescopic fork for a plush ride, progressive braking with dual channel ABS, and a highly functional console with USB port. Crafted with the same attention to detail and quality that is synonymous with the Triumph brand. The Speed T4 will be available in 3 stunning colours - Pearl Metallic White, Cocktail Wine Red & Phantom Black.

The MY25 Speed 400 – For the performance enthusiast

The Speed 400 was launched in July 2023 and has been acclaimed for its high performance, technology, and premium build. The Model Year 2025 Speed 400 is an upgraded version offering a beefier look with high-profile tires, enhanced seating comfort, and adjustable levers for the riding enthusiast. It retains all its performance enhancing features like ride-by-wire throttle, switchable traction control, torque assist clutch and dual-channel ABS to ensure superior handling and control. Together, these make the MY25 Speed 400 a compelling choice for motorcycle enthusiasts seeking a dynamic and spirited riding performance.
The MY25 Speed 400 is available in 4 striking colourways – Racing Yellow, Pearl Metallic White, Racing Red & Phantom Black.

Both Speed T4 and the MY25 Speed 400 feature the powerful 398cc TR-Series Engine and embody the modern classic roadster design in their DNA.

Rooted in the rich heritage of British motorcycling, these bikes embody a seamless fusion of timeless classic form and modern engineering. Models like the Bonneville, Speed Twin, and Thruxton are designed to evoke the charm of the golden era of motorcycling, while delivering top-tier performance with advanced technologies.
