RIDE REVIEW I 2023 ROYAL ENFIELD P88 When stopped, the 31.3-inch seat height makes flat-footing with both feet firmly on the ground a cinch for all but the shortest of riders. Speaking of the seat, that's also been replaced with a single- seat design that's a little more comfortable than its Himalayan two-piece counterpart. We rode the Scram from the Royal Enfield North American headquarters in Milwaukee ap- proximately 180 miles west to an overnight destination near S&S Cycle, where we toured the well- known performance shop's facili- ties and got a look at what they are doing to support Royal Enfield customers. Remember, I men- tioned that a potential buyer could get more from the little single. It doesn't get much simpler than this. 2023 ROYAL ENFIELD SCRAM 411 ($5099) ENGINE TYPE Single cylinder, 4-stroke DISPLACEMENT 411cc VALVETRAIN SOHC, 2-valve BORE X STROKE 78 x 86mm COMPRESSION RATIO 9.5:1 COOLING SYSTEM Air-/oil-cooled MAX POWER (CLAIMED) 24.3 bhp @ 6500 rpm MAX TORQUE (CLAIMED) 32 Nm @ 4000-4500 rpm IGNITION Digital electronic ignition CLUTCH Wet, multi-plate GEARBOX 5-speed constant mesh LUBRICATION Forced lubrication, wet sump FUELING Electronic fuel injection STARTING Electric FRAME Half-duplex split cradle frame FRONT SUSPENSION Telescopic, 41mm forks REAR SUSPENSION Monoshock with linkage FRONT-WHEEL TRAVEL 7.5 in.
