        I’ve been riding the Triumph Speed 400 for 1.5 years, and I can confidently say it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From the moment I got it, everything about the bike has felt premium.

        The Triumph Speed 400 is a good bike with a strong and sporty performance. My experience has been nice overall. However, there are a few compromises in build quality, and reaching the service center can be a bit inconvenient. Still, for those who love a blend of retro styling with a powerful engine, this bike is a great choice.

        Overall, the bike is perfect for daily use. However, there’s a slight issue with mud splashing during the rainy season, and it could really use a brighter LED headlight for better visibility at night. As for Triumph it's an absolute beast when it comes to power.

        It's a nice bike with a nice fit and finish, best for city commutes and long runs. I love my bike very much. No problem yet; I've done about 1400 miles. 900 km in single stretch no heating or anything else, just for fuel break
