Triumph Street Triple R

Exterior Details

As said above, the Street Triple R looks more or less identical to its RS derivative. Like the RS, it, too, comes with the signature twin headlamps, packed with LEDs. The only visual difference with both the versions is the omission of the belly pan for the more affordable R variant.

Regardless, the Street Triple R still wears the aggressive and intimidating look, which makes it just as special as its sibling. Moreover, it, too, features a sleek tail section and wide rubber, both front and back.

Engine & Transmission

Powering the Street Triple R is the same 765cc inline three-cylinder engine from the RS version. In the R version, however, power is slightly lower at 116bhp, while the torque output remains the same at 79Nm. Here too, the engine comes mated to a six-speed manual transmission. Lastly, the Street Triple R mileage is expected to be around 23km/l.

Handling

In the handling department, the Street Triple R features Showa 41mm upside-down forks at the front and a monoshock at the back. Furthermore, it is built around an aluminium beam twin spar chassis, and it gets a 120/70 ZR17 and a 180/55 ZR17 tyre at the front and rear, respectively. The stopping power comes from dual 310mm discs at the front and a 220mm disc at the rear.

In comparison to the RS version, the Triumph Street Triple R new model does miss out on a few goodies.
