Pros Cons of Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS

Pros

  • Brutal acceleration
  • Excellent handling
  • Sharply styled

Cons

  • Feels a bit dedicated to the track
  • Clutch can be a bit finicky
  • Can run hot at city speeds

Verdict

The 2021 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS is an all new model ground-up and it is positioned above the Street Triple RS as the company's flagship performance naked motorcycle. The new Speed Triple 1200 RS features an all-new 1,160 cc triple-cylinder engine which is 7 kg lighter than before. It makes 178 bhp at 10,750 rpm along with 125 Nm of peak torque coming in at 9,000 rpm. The new Speed Triple looks sharper, leaner and meaner than ever before! Boasting of an aggressive stance, the motorcycle now gets differently designed twin headlights along with embedded LED daytime running lights. Now, the motorcycle is expensive and doesn’t have much practical use, but if you do end up buying one, it will be a worthwhile investment.
