The Street Triple R – The Street Triple with an even higher spec.
Suceeding on from the phenomenally successful Street Triple, the ‘R’ version takes the standard bike and adds race track technology. Fully-adjustable 41mm upside down forks and a top-spec rear monoshock unit with piggy back reservoir deliver elevated handling, while radially-mounted four piston calipers grab the twin 308mm brake discs and ensure the Street Triple R stops as well as it goes.
The Street Triple R engine is the same 675cc triple cylinder engine that powers the Triumph Street Triple, so there’s masses of power available from low revs through to the redline. Max power is a healthy 108PS at 11,700rpm, peak torque of 69Nm is delivered at 9,100rpm.
Fully adjustable sports suspension and four-piston radial brakes are derived from the award-winning Daytona 675 and the Street Triple R rivals traditional supersport machines with its superlative handling and stunning stopping power, while offering the comfort and attitude of a streetfighter. The sporty feel is completed with wide, tapered, handlebars and a 5mm taller seat that puts the Street Triple R rider in the perfect position.
The Street Triple R also benefits from the same refinements for 2010 as the Street Triple: lighter rear wheel and rear sprocket, revised EFI calibration for smoother throttle response at low speeds and new instruments for easier operation.
Completing the Street Triple R’s look are three distinctive colour options – Matt Graphite, Matt Orange and gloss Phantom Black with gold wheels
