Royal Enfield Scram 411

Is it still on sale?

No. In October 2026, the Scram 411 no longer appears in the range on Royal Enfield France’s website, although its old page, with prices and colours, can still be reached by its address. Royal Enfield France only offers a Euro 5 owner’s manual for it, whereas every model in the current range has a Euro 5+ edition, the standard required to register a new motorcycle since 1 January 2025, barring end-of-series exemptions. It has also disappeared from the ranges of other European countries and the United States.

Royal Enfield does not name a model year: this page uses 2024, the year of the last owner’s manual published in Europe (in the UK, in June 2024), still Euro 5 homologated. Its replacement, the Scram 440, launched in India in January 2025, is only sold in India and Nepal: it is not marketed in France or anywhere else in Europe.

Which versions and at what price?

A single mechanical version was offered, at two price levels depending on colour (last recommended retail price listed by Royal Enfield France):

• Graphite Blue, Graphite Red and Graphite Yellow: €5,390;
• White Flame, Silver Spirit and Blazing Black: €5,490.

In the United States, Cycle News quoted the 2023 model year at $5,099.

Where does it come from?

Launched on 15 March 2022 and arriving in Europe the same year, the Scram 411 is the “ADV crossover” version of the Himalayan 411, sharing its LS410 engine and the frame developed with Harris Performance. It differs in having a 19-inch front wheel instead of 21, a fork with 190 mm of travel instead of 200, a one-piece seat and a stripped-back front end without a screen.

How good is the engine?

The 411 cc LS410 single (78 × 86 mm), with a single overhead camshaft and 2 valves, is air-cooled with an oil cooler and fuel-injected. It makes 24.3 hp (17.88 kW) at 6,500 rpm and 32 Nm at 4,250 rpm, making it A2-compliant as standard, without restriction. The gearbox has 5 speeds and Royal Enfield UK quotes a top speed of 125 km/h.

MOTORRAD describes a torquey, vocal single that prefers pulling to revving, Bennetts BikeSocial an engine well suited to town riding. Several reviews point out its limits on fast roads: 1000PS feels it running out of breath around 110 km/h, BikeSocial advises avoiding motorways and MOTORRAD finds its 24 hp too little to overtake a lorry.

How does it ride?

The chassis pairs a non-adjustable 41 mm telescopic fork (190 mm of travel) with a preload-adjustable linkage monoshock (180 mm). The 19- and 17-inch spoked wheels carry dual-purpose tyres with inner tubes. Braking relies on a 300 mm disc with a twin-piston floating caliper at the front and a 240 mm disc at the rear, with two-channel ABS that cannot be switched off. With a 1,455 mm wheelbase, 200 mm of ground clearance and 194 kg kerb weight, it remains compact.

MCN finds it sharper in corners than the Himalayan and BikeSocial rates it nimble and stable. The front brake is the most frequently cited flaw: “terrible” for MCN, weak for 1000PS. MCN finds the suspension out of its depth when the pace rises, Visordown good but not great, BikeSocial harsh on bad surfaces.

What equipment?

The equipment is simple: no riding modes, no traction control, no cruise control. The offset analogue speedometer is complemented by an LCD screen (compass, fuel gauge, service reminder) and the Tripper turn-by-turn navigation pod, standard in Europe according to MCN and 1000PS. The headlamp is halogen, the tail light LED. The 2024 UK manual adds a USB socket, absent from the 2022 French manual.

Who is it for?

BikeSocial sees it as a first big bike you keep longer than planned, Cycle News as a bike for beginners and experienced riders alike. 1000PS’s 2024 comparison rates it the most at ease of the trio on dirt tracks, against the Triumph Scrambler 400 X and the TVS Ronin.

Fuel consumption, maintenance and recalls

Royal Enfield quotes 3.18 L/100 km and 73.4 g/km of CO2, giving a theoretical range of about 470 km from the 15-litre tank. 1000PS recorded 3.2 L/100 km, MCN 65 mpg (about 4.3 L/100 km). The 2022 French manual calls for an oil change every 10,000 km or 12 months and a valve clearance check every 5,000 km; the 2024 UK manual sets both at 7,500 km. The warranty is 3 years. No recall affects the Scram 411 (NHTSA, RappelConso, EU Safety Gate).

What replaced it?

The Scram 440 follows the same recipe with a 443 cc LS 440 engine (25.4 hp, 34 Nm), a 6-speed gearbox, an LED headlamp, switchable rear ABS and, on the Force version, tubeless alloy wheels. Royal Enfield only sells it in India and Nepal.
