New higher profile tyres add muscle to the MY25 Speed 400. Tyres sizes are now 110/80-17 and 150/70-17.
The new Speed 400 also gets higher profile Vredestein Centauro radial tyres, with the front now a 110/80-17 while the rear tyre is now 150/70-17, up from 110/70-17 front and 150/60-17 from the outgoing Speed 400. Ride quality and tyre performance of the outgoing Speed 400 was more than adequate, and according to Bajaj (Triumph’s Indian partner), the upsizing is a result of adding more visual mass, as well as offering more ride comfort, along with the thicker seat cushioning.

The blacked-out exhaust on the new Speed 400 will certainly be a topic of discussion among Indian classic motorcycle fans, who seem to prefer a bit of chrome and brushed metal finish.
