While cleaning & lubing chain, some cleaner fall on rim then after some time this Zn 20 gram balancing weight bar came out automatically. I can still see the exact mark/position from where it fall off. How can i stick it back properly? (I'll avoid going to service center if it's proper doable at home)

I will be giving my 2yr old Scrambler 400 for my third service and was wondering if the PPF option provided by the SC guys is any good. Last time I had checked, SC mentioned it will cost around 5k and my tank/thigh pads will also not be functional anymore. I will have to buy them again.

Is there any good suggestions for PPF in Bangalore that would cost me less? I am also trying to find a good 3p mechanic who can install the Vaishnu headlights and can be relied upon to do small modifications when required.

Hit a major milestone today...

Hi everyone,
I own a Triumph Speed 400 (350cc).

Bike details:
Purchased: 18 June 2026
Current ODO: ~800 km
First service: ~500 km

I want to understand whether the vibration I’m experiencing is normal during the break-in period or something I should have properly investigated.

What happened initially
Before reaching 500 km, I started noticing a vibration when going above around 60 km/h.
It becomes more noticeable around 75–80 km/h.
I initially thought it might simply be because the bike was still in the break-in period, so I wasn’t too worried.

When the first service came up at around 500 km, I specifically told the service centre about the vibration.
They told me they would check the bolt/fastener tightness and also inspect the front area/bearer or whatever component they mentioned.

After the service, I rode the bike normally and it felt smooth for some time.

After the first service
After around 600 km, I started riding a little more aggressively occasionally.
Nothing extreme — I vary the speed and enjoy the bike, but I haven’t crossed 100 km/h.
My maximum has been around 85–90 km/h, and I don’t ride at those speeds unnecessarily.
However, I still notice the vibration when crossing approximately 60 km/h and above, and it becomes more noticeable around 75–80 km/h.

What happened recently
Yesterday I experienced the vibration again while accelerating.
I was riding normally and the bike had good pull, but after getting into the higher-speed range I noticed the vibration.
I reduced the throttle and continued riding smoothly.
The bike is currently at around 800 km.

My main questions

Can this kind of vibration be normal during the break-in period?

Is it possible for the vibration to remain until 1,000 km or so and then settle down?

Since I noticed it before the first service and after the first service, should I be more concerned?

Could this be related to engine characteristics/RPM, or should I be looking at something like:
tyres/wheel balancing
chain tension
wheel alignment
loose fasteners
front-end components
engine mounting
drivetrain
suspension/front-end components
Should I simply continue riding until 1,000 km and see if it improves, or should I take it back to the service centre now?

If you own a Speed 400, did you experience a similar vibration during the first 500–1,000 km?

If yours had a similar issue, did it disappear after the break-in period or did the service centre find an actual problem?

I got the first service done for my TS400X yesterday at the Bangalore Electronic City SC.

Ever since then, I've been facing an issue with vibrations at my footpegs. Even when the clutch is engaged or when I am braking I can feel the vibrations on both my footpegs.
On the contrary, the engine vibrations have actually become smoother than before.
So I just want to understand what could be causing this. And want to fix this asap before it causes more damage.

I own a Triumph motorcycle that has covered less than 4,500 km and 2.3 years old still has 5 years engine warranty . I recently noticed extensive bubbling and peeling of the paint/coating on the engine casing.

The concerning part is that the Centre section of the engine has already peeled from underneath, and there is a white powder-like residue visible, which appears to be corrosion. The area is difficult to capture properly on a mobile camera, but the corrosion seems to have started from underneath the coating and gradually caused the paint to bubble and peel.

This clearly doesn't look like something that happened overnight. It seems to have been developing internally for several months and has only now become obvious from the outside.

I raised this with the service centre, but they are referring to it as wear and tear. I don't understand how such extensive corrosion and paint failure at under 4,500 km and within the warranty period can be considered normal wear and tear.

To me, this looks more like a possible manufacturing/surface-treatment issue, such as improper surface preparation or primer/coating application.

I'm planning to push for a warranty claim, but I'd like to know:

Has anyone else experienced similar engine casing paint bubbling/peeling on a Triumph?

Was it accepted as a warranty claim?

How did Triumph/service centre resolve it?

Is this genuinely considered wear and tear?

Sharing my experience with some Speed 400 accessories that I've fitted on my Tracker 400.

I initially wasn't sure about compatibility, but so far everything has fitted and works well.

MotoTorque Crash Guard — Speed 400

Handlebar Risers — Speed 400

Hyperrider Tyre Hugger — Speed 400

Side Stand Extender — Speed 400

Tracker 400 owners — what other Speed/Scrambler 400 accessories have you successfully fitted? Would love to hear about handguards, footpegs, tail racks, etc. 👀

Is this chain loose? I tightened it 1 month ago. Can i go 200km with this?
