Speed 400 Color Choice

How should I decide between black and white Triumph Speed 400?

I decided to go with the white Triumph Speed 400 because I value its standout, premium look and am comfortable with the extra maintenance it requires.

  • Color affects long-term satisfaction more than initial excitement
  • Maintenance effort varies significantly between black and white bikes
  • Usage pattern (daily vs weekend) influences the better color choice
  • Black bikes hide dust and minor scratches better, requiring less frequent cleaning
  • White bikes stand out visually and look premium when clean but show dirt quickly
  • After weighing usage and maintenance trade-offs, I personally prefer the visual appeal and distinctiveness of the white Speed 400.
  • How much the owner values standing out versus convenience
  • Parking conditions and exposure to sun over long term
