Triumph Speed Triple 1050 2011

Even a Super Duke is in a tight spot when the bends are not too sharp and the KTM can make full use of its radical handling and its unrivalled ability to correct the radius on naked bikes. The Speed Triple is more harmonious, patient and predictable. The Duke has to be beaten, the Triple can also be stroked.

Controlled chassis

hard sound

stable.

Rough gearing sometimes disturbs the idyll between man and machine.

Triumph Street Triple 765 RS 2020

Triumph Street Triple 765 RS 2020

As before, the RS top model is indeed the most desirable of the Street Triples. In addition to the usual playful handling, the super-direct Brembo brakes and the lively character of the three-cylinder engine, there is now a more bulbous mid-range, upgraded electronics as well as a Brembo M50 brake and the once again sharpened appearance. Thanks to the very sporty Pirelli Supercorsa SP V3 tyres, trackdays are indeed a serious issue, and the now standard shift assistant with blipper function greatly increases the incentive to switch to the new model. A wonderful fun machine for both country road and track!
