A New Chapter in Bangalore’s Motorcycling Story: Khivraj Triumph Welcomes the Thruxton 400

The excitement was palpable at our Khivraj Triumph showroom in Bangalore as we unveiled the much-anticipated Thruxton 400 to enthusiastic riders and motorcycle aficionados. As one of Bangalore’s premier Triumph dealerships, we’ve had the privilege of introducing riders to exceptional motorcycles, but the Thruxton 400 represents something truly special – Triumph’s first accessible café racer that brings premium British engineering within reach of passionate riders.

Why the Thruxton 400 Matters to Bangalore Riders

Bangalore’s motorcycling community has always appreciated machines that blend performance with character, and the Thruxton 400 delivers exactly that. Priced at ₹2.74 lakh (ex-showroom), this café racer fills a unique gap in our lineup, offering riders the authentic Triumph experience with distinctive styling that turns heads on Brigade Road and beyond.

What struck us most during the launch was how the Thruxton 400 immediately commanded attention. The semi-fairing stretching from the fuel tank to the headlight creates a muscular presence that’s distinctly different from its sibling, the Speed 400. The neo-retro design philosophy, highlighted by the round LED headlamp with integrated DRLs, speaks to riders who want both modern functionality and classic aesthetics.

The Dealer’s First Impression: Built for Riders, Not Just Buyers

Having spent considerable time with the Thruxton 400 before its launch, our team at Khivraj Triumph noticed several thoughtful details that showcase Triumph’s commitment to the riding experience. The clip-on handlebars and repositioned footpegs create an engaging, forward-leaning riding position that transforms every journey into an occasion.

The attention to detail is remarkable – from the bar-end mirrors that maintain the clean aesthetic to the optional rear seat cowl that emphasizes the café racer’s solo-riding heritage. These aren’t just styling elements; they’re purposeful design choices that enhance both form and function.

Performance That Delivers on Promise

Under the distinctively styled bodywork lies the familiar 398cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, but Triumph’s engineers have fine-tuned it specifically for the Thruxton 400. The result is 42 horsepower at 9,000 RPM – a noticeable bump over the Speed 400 – while maintaining the same robust 37 Nm of torque that makes city riding effortless.

The six-speed gearbox with slipper clutch ensures smooth power delivery, whether you’re navigating Bangalore’s traffic or enjoying weekend rides to Nandi Hills. The shorter 1,376mm wheelbase (10mm less than the Speed 400) contributes to more agile handling characteristics that experienced riders will appreciate.

Four Colors, Endless Possibilities

Our showroom now displays all four stunning color options, each telling its own story:

• Lava Red Gloss with Aluminum Silver – Bold and unmistakably sporty
• Pearl Metallic White with Storm Grey – Elegant sophistication
• Metallic Racing Yellow with Aluminum Silver – Classic racing heritage
• Phantom Black with Aluminum Silver – Timeless stealth appeal

Each combination has found its admirers among Bangalore riders, reflecting the diverse tastes of our motorcycling community.

Technology Meets Tradition

While the Thruxton 400 embraces classic café racer aesthetics, it doesn’t compromise on modern safety and convenience features. The semi-digital instrument cluster combines an analog tachometer with essential digital information, creating the perfect balance of old-school charm and contemporary functionality.

The inclusion of dual-channel ABS, traction control, ride-by-wire throttle, LED lighting throughout, and a USB charging port ensures that riders enjoy both heritage styling and modern practicality.
