Adventure<br />
found a couple of guys from Germany/Italy<br />
who in 2014 made a 20,000km trek from<br />
China to home in the Alps - and yes one<br />
of them was riding a 400 Trail (badged a<br />
Shineray X5 as it was a home market<br />
example). It crushed some wheel bearings<br />
along the way, but was still in fine health<br />
after 127 days of non-stop adventuring.<br />
That sounds well-tested to us.<br />
Of course this was a ‘first ride’ type test.<br />
But we rode the kind of roads that suit this<br />
kind of bike and the right kind of trails too.<br />
No, it won’t do enduro the way an XR or<br />
DRZ can, but then it was never designed to.<br />
As a travel bike, though, it’s quite possibly<br />
the best attempt we’ve seen from any<br />
manufacturer to date. A clever bit of kit.<br />
Not flawless obviously but at under £4000<br />
brand new with 24 months warranty, pretty<br />
impressive. This Shineray team - they<br />
clearly know a thing or two...<br />
THANKS<br />
Big thanks to Henry Mablethorpe and the<br />
guys at WK Bikes for getting us the test bike<br />
just as soon as they’d broken it out of the<br />
container. And thanks too, to our mate Andy<br />
Dukes for coming along on his own Honda<br />
CRF250L to afford us a great comparison<br />
and good company. And thanks to the Great<br />
British countryside - it’s an awesome place...
