It is available in two variants—Trail and Force—and five colour options —Force Blue, Force Grey, Force Teal, Trail Green, and Trail Blue. The Scram 440 directly competes with the Triumph Scrambler 400X and the Yezdi Scrambler, but we're choosing to compare it with the Guerrilla 450, a roadster based on the Himalayan platform. Let’s explore how these two bikes from the same brand compare across multiple parameters.
