Is the Royal Enfield Scrambler 450 just a Himalayan 450 in a new suit?

I can tell you as a Himalayan owner that the Scrambler feels like a whole different beast. The small changes really do add up.

It's more of a lifestyle than that. If you want to look like you've got some off road capability, but don't want the actual off road capability, the Scrambler is for you.
With the new features and engine, is the Scram 440 still a true scrambler, or is it inching closer and closer to being a standard motorcycle?

I'd say it's still at heart a scrambler. New features make it more usable day to day, but the core design elements are there. It’s not abandoning its roots, but evolving with the times.

Honestly, RE is trying to have its cake and eat it too. The Scram 440 is no longer really a scrambler, but is becoming more of a standard bike with scrambler styling.

I ride on and off road so I appreciate the updates. These changes make the scrambler more versatile, and should be capable in different scenarios.

We're just too hung up on labels, I believe. It is what it is, the Scram 440, a fun, capable bike that can do a little bit of everything. It doesn't have to fit neatly into the "scrambler" box, who cares?

I’m a little disappointed with the purist in me. The original Scram was raw and simple and I loved it. It seems that this is more about the urban hipster than true enthusiasts.

Let’s be real, these days most scramblers are more style than substance. At least with the Scram 440, they’re at least adding things that make it more enjoyable to ride.

This, to me, is a modern take on the scrambler idea. It recognizes that riders' needs have changed since the 60s and 70s but it keeps the spirit alive.
How does the Scram 440’s value proposition fare against the likes of Yezdi Scrambler and upcoming Hero Mavrick 440?
13 January 2025 09:02
I have ridden the Scram and the Yezdi and I would say the Scram 440 feels more refined. If you’re going to keep the bike, the build quality is noticeably better.

13 January 2025 09:02
Pure performance wise you get a lot more bang for your buck with the Yezdi. The Scram has that classic RE charm that’s hard to quantify, though.
How does the Scram 440’s value proposition fare against the likes of Yezdi Scrambler and upcoming Hero Mavrick 440?
13 January 2025 09:02
I'm really wondering what the Mavrick 440 is like. If it can do so at a competitive price, it could be a game changer. It might be tough for the Scram to compete.

13 January 2025 09:02
But let’s not forget that RE has a massive service network. That alone gives a lot of value, especially if you plan to travel a long time or live outside of major cities.

I believe the Scram 440 is in the sweet spot of features to price. It is not trying to be the most powerful or the most cheap, but it does provide a well rounded package.
How does the Scram 440’s value proposition fare against the likes of Yezdi Scrambler and upcoming Hero Mavrick 440?
13 January 2025 09:02
I have owned multiple REs and resale value is a big factor. The Scram 440 should retain its value better than its competitors.

13 January 2025 09:02
Powerful, the Yezdi is, but power is not everything. I think the Scram 440 is smoother, and has better ergonomics, making it more fun to use on a day to day basis.

13 January 2025 09:02
The Scram 440 just feels like a more mature product and I'm leaning towards it. I think, first of all, the Yezdi and Mavrick are first gen models, and RE has been refining this platform for years.
The Scram 440 is it just a Scram 411 with beef, or does it bring something new to the table?
13 January 2025 09:02
It honestly feels like more than a beefed up 411. Where the engine is noticed if anything is the extra oomph even in the mid range. Also, you get a 6 speed gearbox that makes highway rides a game changer.

13 January 2025 09:02
I'd say it's a half step forward. Everything is an upgrade, but it's still very much in the same vein as the 411. What I was hoping for was something radical, like traction control or riding modes.

I'm actually pretty excited about the 440 as a Scram 411 owner. The alloy wheel option alone makes it that much more practical for daily use, and those LED lights are a great addition for night riding.
