The 2027 Triumph Tracker 400 introduces a new addition to Triumph’s small-displacement Modern Classic family, adding a model with flat-track-inspired character. Positioned as an accessible, stylish and comfortable gateway in Triumph’s 400-class lineup, the Tracker 400 combines classic styling cues with modern engineering and electronics. Priced at $5995, it is expected to arrive in dealerships in March.

1. A new flat-track-inspired twist comes to the Modern Classic fold. Flat track is a deeply American from of two-wheeled racing, so, we’ll doff our cap and give the boys at Triumph a hearty ello guv’nah for that one. It’s a street bike, first and foremost, but before we discuss rubber meeting the road, we need to talk about aesthetics. Unique to the Tracker 400 is an angular fuel tank, number plate side covers, seat cowl, and flyscreen, all of which lean into the street tracker motif. If this looks similar to other 400-series machines, that’s because there are quite a few shared components between the Speed 400, Thruxton 400, Scrambler 400 X, and Scrambler 400 XC.

2. Power is delivered by a robust TR-series 398cc single-cylinder engine shared with the Thruxton 400. At the heart of the Tracker 400 is a liquid-cooled, SOHC single-cylinder engine with dual overhead camshafts and four valves. It produces 41 horsepower at 9000 rpm and 28 lb-ft of torque at 7500 rpm, which is about five percent more horsepower than the standard configuration, thanks to updated camshaft profiles and tuning. This engine architecture is common across Triumph’s 400 lineup, with peak torque available from as low as 3000 rpm, enhancing tractable low-speed performance. A six-speed gearbox with a slip-and-assist clutch ensuring smooth downshifts and reduced lever effort.

3. A simple electronic package goes a long way. New riders will have adjustable traction control and ABS to watch over their shoulders while they develop their riding skills. Once they get things going, it’s good that TC can be disabled — especially if you want to blast up a dirt road. Modern EFI is paired with a ride-by-wire throttle. Things are kept simple with an hybrid analog/LCD dash.

4. A few flat-track-focused changes are imparted on the chassis. The hybrid spine/perimeter tubular steel frame paired with a bolt-on rear subframe and a twin-sided cast aluminum swingarm chassis is essentially the same across all Triumph 400-series models. Differences come into the picture when examining the Tracker 400’s 17-inch cast aluminum wheels, laced with Pirelli MT 60 RS tires in 110/70 front and 150/60 rear.

5. Suspension tuning supports mixed-surface usability and everyday comfort. A non-adjustable 43mm inverted fork works in conjunction with a spring-preload adjustable monoshock. For those getting into motorcycling, suspension is kept to the basics when discussing newbie-friendly rides.

6. A radially mounted four-piston caliper brings stopping power to the Tracker 400. The ByBre 4-piston caliper clamps onto a 300mm disc while the rear single-piston caliper works with a 230mm disc. You don’t need much more stopping power for a bike in this sub 400-pound class and, while it’ll do the ton (go 100 mph), that isn’t something we expect owners to do religiously.

7. Distinct tire choice further differentiates the Tracker’s intended character. Unlike the Thruxton 400’s sport-oriented Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tires, the Tracker 400 wears Pirelli MT 60 RS retro-style dirt-track tires. This selection favors flat-track styling cues and mixed-condition grip, emphasizing versatility over pure road performance.

8. Ergonomics emphasizes an aggressive racing-style rider position. The Tracker’s wide flat-track handlebars are almost an inch wider and more than five inches lower than those on the Speed 400. Footpegs are positioned 3.4 inches rearward and 1.1 inches higher, pivoting the entire rider triangle forward. Seat height measures 31.7 inches, supporting traffic-friendly handling and rider confidence. So, that means we’re dealing with a bike that has a riding position between the café racing Thruxton 400 and the city-friendly Speed 400.

9. Dimensions and mass underline a lightweight and manageable package. With a claimed wet weight of 381 pounds, the Tracker 400 gets the svelte size and sporty geometry used across all 400-series bikes. This speaks to a machine that could potentially be quite eager to maneuver. We’ll have to wait and see on that.

10. We closed with this observation in our Thruxton 400 First Look, so we’ll recycle the sentiment here. Triumph’s entry-level 400 Modern Classics have something for everyone. Of course, they share the TR-series engine, hybrid steel frame, and rider aids. Service intervals are also respectable. Let’s focus on the most recently announced bikes for the sake of this conversation, but, if you want an aggressive, haughty upright hooligan-adjacent bike, then the Tracker 400 might fit the bill. Meanwhile, the classic café racer can be had in the Thruxton 400. And, don’t worry, the Speed 400 and two Scrambler 400s are in the mix.
