Royal Enfield has paused bookings and deliveries for its Scram 440. Citing Technical issues.
The Indian two-wheeler manufacturer has put bookings on hold to resolve an issue related to the motorcycle's engine. We have come to know that the issue appears to affect select units (number unspecified), where the engine fails to restart after being turned off. The issue stems from a malfunction linked to a component called the 'Woodruff key' (connecting rotating parts shafts ) located within the magneto assembly.
Royal Enfield is likely to reopen bookings for Scram 440 from next month.
The Scram 440 shares its underpinnings with the older Himalayan 411 platform. The updated motorcycle has a larger displacement engine, a six-speed gearbox, and several mechanical updates. The revised engine churns out 25.4 bhp and 34 Nm.
The motorcycle, which debuted at the 2024 Motoverse event and was the brand's first launch of 2025, had gone on sale in January at a starting price of Rs 2.08 lakh (ex-showroom)
