Triumph and Indian motorcycle manufacturer Bajaj announced a partnership in 2017, when the two declared that they would work together to develop new models for the entry-level segment.
After six years of research and development, the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X were born.
These two bikes represent the most affordable and accessible models to bear the Triumph name. So it’s no surprise that they have been very well received by the global public. Nor is it surprising that aftermarket specialists are launching accessories and upgrades left and right.
For example, French accessory specialist Top Block Racing has just launched a new protection kit for the Speed 400. The subject of protection accessories tends to be a challenge for some people, especially those looking to get the most protection with the most subtle look possible. As such, frame sliders are usually an option among enthusiasts of sports bikes, naked bikes and neo-retro bikes.
That’s why Top Block Racing’s frame sliders for the Triumph Speed 400 aim not only to keep the bike intact in the event of a crash, but also to retain its elegant, retro-inspired look.
Remember that the Speed 400 is marketed as a bike for novice riders. Therefore, fitting some protective accessories will certainly be a great help to a new rider who is just learning to ride on two wheels.
Now, it’s worth mentioning that Top Block Racing hasn’t limited itself to frame protection sliders when it comes to accessories for Triumph’s little roadster. The brand has also launched a rear mudguard delete kit for those who want to give their bikes a sportier, more athletic stance. The kit is made from laser-cut aluminum and includes a license plate holder and blinker mounts.
Both the frame sliding kit and the mudguard elimination kit are available on the Top Block Racing website. The price is 247 euros and 138 euros respectively.
