More powerful than ever before, Triumph’s 1160cc triple engine delivers relentless acceleration and performance with 183PS at 10,750 rpm and 128Nm at 8,750 rpm.
Thrilling and utterly addictive, the three-cylinder engine delivers the ultimate blend of low-end drive and top-end punch, giving cutting-edge performance on the road and on the track, coupling instant throttle response with an effortlessly smooth power delivery. This is further enhanced by a revised dynamic crankshaft balancing strategy, for a significant improvement in engine refinement.
With more than 25 Genuine Triumph Accessories available, owners can make the Speed Triple their own.
Featuring Öhlins latest-generation SmartEC3 semi-active suspension, precision-focused dynamics, and a signature roadster riding position deliver razor-sharp handling, agility and control in every turn. Brembo Stylema® calipers and a Brembo MCS span and ratio adjustable lever offer serious stopping power and a customisable feel, even during the most demanding riding. Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP V3 tyres deliver racetrack performance in a fully street legal tyre.
Carefully engineered to be just 199kg ready to ride, the Speed Triple also sports slightly wider, higher bars and features a bold, aggressive design with purposeful details. Its sporty, upright stance conveys power and presence while ensuring the perfect balance of agility and control. Combined with a narrow seat profile, the rider can feel an intuitive and effortless connection with the bike, delivering precise handling and real-world comfort.
The new Speed Triple’s rider-focused package of equipment and technology puts the rider in control, offering exceptional levels of adjustment. This includes the cutting-edge Öhlins Objective Based Tuning Interface (OBTi), which allows riders to easily adjust the suspension’s dynamic damping characteristics in different riding scenarios.
With 183PS at 10,750rpm, the new engine delivers 3PS more than the previous generation of Speed Triple. Torque is improved too, with 128Nm at 8,750rpm, which is not only 3Nm more than the outgoing model but is delivered slightly lower in the rev range.
Incorporating learnings and expertise gathered during Triumph's Moto2™ engine development, the Speed Triple 1200 RS engine has been engineered to be more powerful and durable, as well as being compact and lightweight.
A new, free-flowing exhaust system and compact, lightweight silencer streamline gas flow and centralise mass to improve performance, while maintaining the Speed Triple's signature triple bark.
In addition, the must-have accessory for the new Speed Triple will be the new Akrapovič silencer, which features a titanium outer wrap and mounting bracket, finished with a carbon fibre endcap and laser etched Akrapovič logo.
Featuring innovative 'spool valve' technology for even faster adjustment and improved comfort, state-of-the-art Öhlins® SmartEC3 semi-active technology delivers perfectly tailored, precise and dynamic handling.
This includes the Öhlins Objective Based Tuning Interface (OBTi), which continuously monitors and adjusts the suspension damping characteristics. So, whether riding in a straight line, braking for a corner, balancing the bike mid corner, or accelerating out of a corner, it adjusts the damping characteristics to give the desired performance in each scenario. Riders can now customise this performance using an intuitive menu system on the TFT instruments, so the bike continuously monitors and adapts the damping in real time to deliver the optimum performance for the conditions.
For the next level of precision and control, the Speed Triple 1200 RS also features an adjustable steering damper, delivering smooth and predictable handling in every situation, as well as a pair of Brembo Stylema calipers with an MCS lever, delivering impeccable stopping performance and a customisable brake feel. Completing the set-up, the Speed Triple 1200 RS has Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP V3’s fitted as standard, which have a bi-compound design for optimised grip, stability and durability.
Giving the perfect balance of agility and control, the bike is compact, with bars that are slightly wider and higher than the outgoing model, creating a sporty, upright roadster stance that delivers effortlessly precise handling, real-world comfort.
Where the yokes have been updated to accommodate the wider bars and the addition of the steering damper, the finish of these components has been updated to a sophisticated and understated black tone, creating a contrast with the gold Öhlins forks.
