Royal Enfield launched the new Scram 440 yesterday after unveiling it at the MotoSoul 2024 in November. The Scram 440 is a significant upgrade over the outgoing Scram 411 since it continues to be based on the older Himalayan 411. Here’s a look at what all has changed from Scram 411 to make the Scram 440.
Royal Enfield Scram 440 vs Scram 411: Larger engine
The biggest difference between the older Scram and the new Scram is the engine. The power mill on the Scram, although based on the same engine block as the Scram 411, has been bored out to enlarge the cylinder displacement. As a result, peak power and torque outputs have increased. Also, Royal Enfield has replaced the old 5-speed gearbox with a more advanced 6-speed unit that gets a slip and assist clutch.
| Specifications | Scram 440 | Scram 411 |
| Engine | 443 cc | 411 cc |
| Power | 25.4 bhp | 24.3 bhp |
| Torque | 34 Nm | 32 Nm |
| Gearbox | 6-speed | 5-speed |
Royal Enfield Scram 440 vs Scram 411: Hardware & Dimensions
Although based on the same underpinnings as its predecessor, Enfield has re-enforced the chassis which has resulted in multiple changes including the growth in dimensions. The new Scram is now longer, taller, and heavier than the old Scram. Further, a stronger chassis means the new Scram 440 can incorporate a top box which the older Scram couldn’t. Other hardware configurations like the suspension setup, brake and wheels remain unchanged. That said, the top-spec Force trim gets tubeless tyres wrapped around alloy wheels.
| Dimensions | Scram 440 | Scram 411 |
| Wheelbase | 1460 mm | 1455 mm |
| Ground Clearance | 200 mm | 200 mm |
| Length | 2165 mm | 2160 mm |
| Width | 840 mm | 840 mm |
| Height | 1170 mm | 1165 mm |

| Dry Weight | 187 kg | 185 kg |
Royal Enfield Scram 440 vs Scram 411: Colour schemes
While Royal Enfield has retained the same design as the outgoing model, the Scram 440 gains some new colour schemes to give it a fresh appeal. The Scram 440 can be had in five colour schemes in total – Force Blue, Force Grey, Force Teal, Trail Green, and Trail Blue.
Royal Enfield Scram 440 vs Scram 411: Features
The Chennai-based bikemaker has also enhanced the equipment on the new Scram. This includes a Tripper Pod for turn-by-turn navigation and an LED headlight. Other features include a USB charging port and a semi-digital instrument cluster.
Royal Enfield Scram 440 vs Scram 411: Price
Despite all the changes, the difference in prices between the Scram 440 and the Scram 411 are minimal. Both bikes are very closely priced but the Scram 411 is on its way out.
