Royal Enfield Scram 440 has been launched. The engine has been increased from 411cc to 443. Despite the higher cubic capacity, these numbers are still on par with the Hero Xpulse 210. Power and torque have been increased from 24.3hp at 6,500rpm and 32Nm at 4,250rpm to 25.4hp at 6,250rpm and 34Nm at 4,000rpm. Another major change is that the motorcycle now comes with a 6-speed gearbox, which Royal Enfield says will reduce clutch work. Other changes include an improved SOHC valvetrain, which RE says will reduce noise.
As for the chassis, there are few changes, although the company says that the chassis has been strengthened in some areas so that the bike can carry a top box. Ground clearance is at 200mm, and suspension travel remains unchanged – 190mm at the front and 180mm at the rear.
The seat height remains the same at 795mm. The company claims that the braking performance has been improved by changing the front brake calipers to larger pistons. The weight has increased by 2 kg, to 196 kg and the fuel tank has increased by 15 litres.
The bike comes with a 19-inch/17-inch wheel setup, but this time, Royal Enfield has introduced a number of features based on customer feedback. For starters, there is a choice of tubeless tyres and alloy wheels, although spoked wheels are still not available. The company has also introduced ABS, which was not available on the old Scram. Visually, there’s not much difference other than the new colour scheme and new headlights borrowed from the rest of the RE range. The display is the same as the previous analogue-digital unit, and a navigation kit is available as an optional extra. Unlike the rotating switches found in most of the RE series, these switches are permanent.
2025 Royal Enfield Scram 440 will be available in five colours across two variants – Trail and Force. Trail Blue and Trail Green will come fitted with the tubed spoke wheels along with tube tyres, while the Force Blue, Force Grey and Force Teal will get the tubeless alloy wheels.
