== Overview ==
Triumph Speed Triple R














Following the success of the R models for the Street
Triple and Daytona 675, Triumph is introducing a premium version of its iconic
Speed Triple, the Speed Triple R.

Working in close collaboration with Swedish suspension brand Öhlins, the Speed
Triple R sports the latest specification NIX30 43mm forks at the front, with a
jewel-like TTX36 unit at the rear. To minimize unsprung weight as much as
possible, the lightweight five-spoke forged aluminum wheels from PVM are more
than 3.7 lbs. lighter than those on the standard machine to deliver even more
precise and agile handling. Stopping the Speed Triple R are top specification
four-piston radial monoblock callipers from Brembo, the leading brand in MotoGP
racing, with a switchable version of Triumphs electronic anti-lock system
available as an option. Together, the brakes and wheels offer a 5% increase in
braking performance over the standard Speed Triple.

The Speed Triple Rs choice of metallic Phantom Black and Crystal White color
options are complemented with red colored subframe and detailing, as well as the
iconic gold forks, to create a sportier and more exotic look that confirms its
status as Triumphs premier naked sports model.


Taking the Speed Triple to an even higher level.

Race-spec Öhlins suspension. Iconic 1050cc triple engine. New, smoother gearbox.
Brembo monobloc brakes and lightweight forged alloy wheels from PVM. Its the
real deal. The essence of the Speed Triple honed, sharpened and distilled to the
ultimate R grade. Razor sharp on road or track. An intravenous connection of man
and machine, tyre and tarmac.

Nothing comes close. From those iconic Öhlins NIX30 43mm front forks, developed
especially for the new Speed Triple R, to the track-developed Pirelli Supercorsa
SP rubber, its clear that this is no ordinary motorcycle. Looks a million
dollars. Looks as good as it rides. Beautifully engineered forged aluminium
wheels reduce unsprung weight by 2kg for scalpel like precision. Carbon fibre
radiator and tank covers. Black anodized tapered handlebars. Jewel-like Öhlins
TTX36 rear suspension for ultimate control and adjustability. Yours in black or
white, with telltale red subframe for those in the know. It looks brilliant
because it is brilliant. Triumphs ultimate factory streetfighter.
