I picked up a 2024 Triumph Scrambler 400X last month for light trails and fun. I wanted a lighter bike but not necessarily a dedicated offroad moto. For now, it seems to fit the bill for me. I had to pick it up in LA on my way to Moab after t he transport truck broke down. But it did give me 50+ miles of offroading in the Maze district in Canyonlands. Trial by fire as I am not a very experienced rider but looking forward to more miles. Being around 400lbs, I can put it on a hitch mount and tackle the long miles in the truck and then get riding when we hit dirt. It is well balanced and a good height for me at 6ft 1in. It has enough power for me as I am not looking to go fast. I have done 75+ on the freeway and the wind drag is pretty bad since it doesnt have a windscreen. I was debating between Royal Enfield Himalayan 411 or 450, KTM 390 Adventure and the 400X. Overall, Im pretty happy with my choice.
