Triumph Speed Triple 1050 2013

Triumph Speed Triple 1050 2013

More power, more kilos, more rubber . It is certainly not the most manageable, which makes climbing the Tyrolean mountains over hundreds of hairpin bends exhausting at times. But it is more mature than the Street Triple, knows how to glide along the valley smoothly and without getting on your nerves, and for some reason feels more trustworthy and secure.

Powerful three-cylinder engine

sporty driving feel

upright seating

stable frame.

Showa suspension elements slightly uncomfortable

stubborn handling.

The Kawa convinces with its good handling and uncompromising reliability. A strong motorbike, but definitely not a bargain.

Sharpened geometry

seating position okay

good handling

uncompromising reliability.

High purchase price.
