With a seat height of 795mm and ground clearance of 200mm, the Scram 440 offers a rider-friendly setup for both off-road and urban environments. It also includes a 10kg load capacity for the overhead bins, making it practical for touring.

Upgraded 443 cc engine

At its heart, the Scram 440 is powered by a 443cc, air- and oil-cooled single-cylinder engine, generating 25.4 PS of power at 6,250 rpm and 34 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. The engine is paired to a 6-speed gearbox, which is a huge improvement over the 5-speed unit of the Scram 411. This new setup ensures better performance, improved NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) levels, and a smoother highway ride.

Enhanced braking and suspension

Braking duties are handled by a 300mm front disc with larger piston calipers for improved response and a 240mm rear disc, complemented by switchable ABS. The suspension, borrowed from the Scram 411, features telescopic front shocks with a travel of 190 mm and a monoshock at the rear with a travel of 180 mm.
