Triumph SPEED 400 AND SCRAMBLER 400 X break ground

[Gone in 60]

the ktm had 43, and it was strung the f out.

Just sorta curious, since that's how I had to ride my CB300R... what RPM are you turning at, say, 65 MPH?

Ah, no prob.

Looking at the exaggerated slant of the gas tank makes me wonder where the fuel pump pickup is. If it's at the back, lots of fuel will be unreachable down in front. If at the front, which side of the tanks saddle? Either left or right would leave the other unreachable.

My Tiger 1200 had a bit of an odd shaped tank but there was a balancing pipe between the two halves to make sure it was evened out, maybe these do too?

after a bit of digging, its just a rebadged RE scram. lol

The Scram is an air-cooled engine, this is water-cooled engine?

The ol' 1986+ Yamaha Viragos (750/1000/1100 cc) had the teardrop tank drain into a smaller box-like tank below the saddle and the fuel pump took out of that. There was never a fuel access problem with that design.
