Triumph Street Triple 765 R 2020

The Street Triple R is well equipped for the occasional track day and delivers good performance. This is where the lively three-cylinder engine really comes into its own. But the agile Triumph is also great fun on country roads, as long as you keep it revved up. All in all, the clear price-performance winner of the Street Triple range.

Low and high seat options available
