The new Street Triple RS brings a major step up in performance from an improved 765cc triple engine, incorporating performance updates developed as part of Triumph’s Moto2™ engine program from the same team of engineers that developed the race engine.

And in the case of the RS engine, delivers even more peak torque than the previous generation. There’s also improved responsiveness delivered through a 7% reduction in rotational inertia for faster revs, a noticeable improvement in torque throughout the mid-range, and a crisper, purer and more refined triple sound.

3. POWER-TO-WEIGHT RATIO

Not only the most powerful bike in its class, the new generation Street Triple RS is still the lightest bike in its class as well, meaning the power-to-weight ratio is incredible and central to its agile handling, intuitive dynamic feel and outstanding capability.
