Triumph launched the Speed T4 as a more affordable derivative of the Speed 400 or essentially a watered down version of the latter. However, Triumph claims this to be a more accessible motorcycle in terms of pricing as well as performance.
Yes, it is Triumph’s entry-level model in its entire lineup but the intention of the British brand is to get as close as possible to the 350cc range of Royal Enfield– the segment leader in modern classic motorcycles. So, how does the new Triumph Speed T4 fare against the entry-level model from Royal Enfield— the Hunter 350— not just on paper but in the real world.

Both motorcycles adhere to the modern classic styling with some sporty neo-retro highlights such as a round headlamp, a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, short front and rear fenders, single-piece saddle, 17-inch alloy wheels, and minimal body panels. That said, the T4 is slightly more on the sportier side whereas the Hunter leans more towards the classic retro styling.

This fact even transpires with the choice of snazzy and modern colour schemes and liveries used by Triumph as compared to Enfield which has more subdued shades to offer.The Speed T4 looks slightly larger than the Hunter 350 because it is. Dimensionally, the Hunter 350 is smaller in every respect to its rival from the British icon which lends the T4 a slightly better road presence that the Hunter.

There is no doubt that the current-gen Enfield 350s are far superior over their predecessors in terms of built quality. However, the Speed T4 is just a tad bit better when it comes to overall fit and finish.
