Italian custom builder South Garage has created the Dune 400, a desert-spec special built on the Triumph Scrambler 400 XC. According to InSella, the machine was built for a Triumph event. It elevates the entry-level scrambler into a custom built for tearing across the desert.
I like South Garage's sense in turning the entry-level Scrambler 400 into a desert build. A builder's skill shows more in what they can do with an affordable base than with expensive materials. The Dune 400 has a clear picture of kicking sand while riding. Building one bike for an event, that on-the-ground passion, is the core of custom culture.

Event bikes like this often end up as display-only, so I'd like to see actual riding footage.
If it's actually built to handle dirt, it's a custom with real function to back up the looks.
Since it's a one-off built for the event, it seems unlikely the parts will ever be sold commercially.
Still, I think there's a chance at least some of the parts could show up in the aftermarket.
Building out an entry-level model this thoroughly also proves how good the base bike's underlying quality is.
Since it was built for an official Triumph event, this must be a manufacturer-sanctioned custom.
A manufacturer officially hiring a custom builder is a smart move for brand-image strategy.
