Indian automaker, Royal Enfield has witnessed a delay in the deliveries of its 440cc scrambler namely the Scram 440.

As per several media reports, the bookings and sales of the Royal Enfield Scram 440 have been halted temporarily owing to a faulty component called the ‘Woodruff Key’ which is fitted within the magnetic coil, placed in the engine.

The faulty component results in the bike not restarting again. While the bike would not stall when it is running, but it may not restart once the ignition has been switched off once it comes to a stop.

“We are currently experiencing a delay in the deliveries of the Scram 440. Our teams are actively working to resolve the situation and expect to resume deliveries soon," an official spokesperson of Royal Enfield, stated.

The issue resides in only two percent of the Royal Enfield Scram 440 that have been sold, as reports suggest. However, the Eicher-owned entity has stopped the bookings and sales of the 440cc motorcycle, keeping in mind customer safety and riding experience.
