Royal Enfield will release its new Scram 411 to Australian showrooms in late June, priced from $8240 rideaway in base colourways.
The Royal Enfield Scram 411 comes in $150 less expensive than the Himalayan adventure bike, upon which it is based, with the new model billed as a more approachable, and more road-oriented adventure offering.
Critically, the Scram 411 swaps the Himalayan’s 21-inch front wheel for a 19-inch hoop, and revised suspension lowers ground clearance, seat height and suspension travel compared to the more dirt-focussed adventure bike. Dual-purpose adventure tyres will be fitted as standard.
Suspension travel is rated at 190mm and 180mm, front-to-rear, translating to a 10mm drop at both ends, while ground clearance is rated at 200mm (-20mm) and seat height 795mm (-5mm).
The Scram 411 retains a familiar 18kW/32Nm 411cc single-cylinder engine that is matched with a conventional five-speed gearbox.
Unique to the Royal Enfield Scram 411 is new tuck-and-roll seat, a new headlight cowl, revised front and rear guards with a new pillion grab handle, and lower handlebars better suited to road riding.
The bike also debuts new graphics and colours, with seven colourways to be offered at launch: the base Graphite Yellow, Graphite Red and Graphite Blue, mid-spec Skyline Blue and Blazing Black, and top-end White Flame and Silver Spirit.
Mid-spec colourways add $100 to the bike’s rideaway price, while top-spec jobs command a $200 premium to $8440.
Royal Enfield’s ‘Tripper’ turn-by-turn navigation dial can be fitted as an option.
