Overview
Triumph Speed Triple RS
Triumph has unveiled its new Speed Triple S and RS variants, both adding more
to the already great balance, power and handling offered by the base model.
The biggest improvements were done to the engine. The new generation Speed
Triple S and RS are powered by an overhauled inline-three engine, comprising of 105 new components to develop more power and torque.
The first change is the extra 10hp, with the Speed Triple RS now claiming 148hp at the crank, with 86 lbs-ft of peak torque. This power is modulated by five riding modes (four riding modes for the S model, which is sans Track mode), and a safety net is created by an IMU-powered traction control system. That IMU also powers the cornering ABS, which means that the new Speed Triple is finally in line with its rival machines, in terms of computer brain power. The new engine also breathes better thanks to free flowing exhaust system, which incorporates a larger catalytic converter and redesigned headers. Triumph also say that the new design helps unlock more of the classic triple roar. Opting for the RS model bags you the Arrow cans and a few more decibels of excitement. Theres also an improved gearbox and slip assist clutch for smoother gear changes.
The full-color dash is where you
see all the electronic settings, such as rider modes and throttle settings. The
dash is controlled by the new switchcubes on the handlebars, which are backlit
obviously. No modern bike is complete without cruise control, so both models get
the feature as standard as well as other comforts such as Daytime Running Lights
and a USB charging point. As youd expect on a bike of this power,
Triumph have
worked with Continental to develop a new IMU that they say delivers optimized
cornering ABS and traction control. Once again opting for the RS model bags you
some extras including a new keyless steering lock and ignition system,
electronically activated by the lock button on the bars, with an option to
disable the keyless function for even greater security.
Both new models retain the same frame and single-sided swingarm as the
previous models but there are changes in the fit out. The S model gets fully
adjustable 43mm Showa USD forks and a Showa monoshock but the RS model gets the
all singing Öhlins NIX30 USD forks and TTX36 twin tube monoshock (again fully
adjustable). Both the S and the RS receive Brembo M4.34 radial monobloc calipers
(although only the RS gets the reach and span adjustable lever) and both get new
ten-spoke wheels shod with Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa tires. Because of the
changes, that all adds up to a 3kg weight saving on the RS model.
Difference between S & RS
Weve mentioned it throughout but there are two Speed Triple models available
in the new range: the standard S model and the full fat RS model. As well as the
features mentioned above, the RS model gets a higher spec finish including fancy
details such a carbon fibre front mudguard and bodypanels. It also comes with a
color-coded belly pad, releasable pillion seat cowl and a new matt aluminum
sub frame (rather than the classic red). Both models are available in two color
scheme as follows:
- Speed Triple S Jet Black or Crystal White, both with a titanium rear
subframe, graphite wheel pinstripes, silver seat stitching and graphite decals
- Speed Triple RS Crystal White or Matt Jet Black, both with a matt
aluminum rear subframe, red wheel pinstripes, red seat stitching, and more
premium RS decals.
