Triumph has launched its new Thruxton 400 café racer in North America as of March 2026. The 398cc liquid-cooled single makes 41.4hp and 27.7 lb-ft, a 5% power bump over the Speed 400, starting at $6,295. Styling draws heavily from the discontinued Speed Triple 1200 RR.

Keeping the silhouette of the Speed Triple 1200 RR alive in this — honestly it feels almost unfair how much I like it. You can feel the designer's whole aesthetic packed into that one round headlight. I'll leave the numbers to the other two, but visually this carries that same energy forward properly.

Dressing up a 398cc single this nicely almost feels nostalgic

Is the riding position too aggressive for someone new to café racers?

A 5% bump over the Speed 400 is honestly within the margin of error

Cheap sticker price aside, insurance and upkeep will still add up

That headlight echoing the Speed Triple 1200 RR is just gorgeous

Love the looks, but $6,295 for 41hp feels a bit steep to me
