The smooth-shifting 6-speed manual transmission provides precise control and excellent gear spacing, giving riders confidence across varied riding conditions. With fuel consumption hovering around 3.8 L/100 km, the Scrambler 400 X offers impressive range from its 13-liter tank, while its lightweight chassis contributes to spirited acceleration, hitting 0-100 km/h in just under 6 seconds.
