The triumph Street triple and Street triple r are famed for their incredible performance, unmistakable appearance and an attitude all of their own. Only a perfectionist would try and improve the famous all-rounder. But that’s exactly what we’ve done. In fact, it’s a whole new bike – rediscovered and redesigned for the most exhilarating, exciting riding experience.

The all-new triumph Street triple and Street triple r will take your ride from the ordinary to the extraordinary. The new chassis is more dynamic, giving you agility and precision while keeping you planted, and better weight distribution and geometry give you an athletic, responsive ride whether on the street or on the track. And with hard-edged street looks, an exposed engine, it’s a pure riders bike.

The new exhaust silencer is positioned lower on the chassis, which improves handling and response by giving the bike a lower centre of gravity. Its light weight and optimized mass centralization makes movement fluid, even more controlled, even more exciting. Nothing is too challenging; think it, and the bike responds.

The heart of the Street triple and Street triple r is the throbbing triumph three-cylinder engine. the torque and sound of the liquid-cooled 12-valve triple, combined with a close ratio six speed gearbox deliver the drive you need to punch out of corners.

And the muscular and linear torque curve gives effortless performance in any gear.

DYNAMIC CHASSIS: Defining the new Street triple and Street triple r’s aggressive new look is the all-new frame. Incorporating a high-pressure die-cast rear subframe for increased rigidity. Not only is the chassis robust and hard-edged, it’s also advanced. Designed to optimize dynamism, agility and rider enjoyment, the light-weight design and lower center of gravity gives you the stability and confidence for an incredible riding experience. And with the addition of adjustable front forks, an rSU with both pre-load and damping adjustment and Nissin radial 4-piston brakes, the Street triple r has even more of an edge.

LOW MOUNTED EXHAUST: Street triple and Street triple r feature a low-mounted stainless steel 3 into 1 exhaust system with a low single-sided silencer. This new design reduces the centre of gravity for an exceptionally agile and exhilarating riding experience.

SWITCHABLE ABS: Brake with confidence and you can cope with the unexpected. the Street triple and Street triple r are available with optional state-of-the-art Anti-Lock Brakes that can cope with even the hardest braking. And because the ABS system is switchable, it can be easily deactivated whenever necessary via the instrument panel – it will then automatically re-activate when the bike is re-started.

675 TRIPLE ENGINE: the throbbing heart of the triumph Street triple and Street triple r is the 675cc liquid-cooled triple. Revving to 12,650rpm, the engine delivers excellent performance and the unmistakable unique sound of a triumph triple. Combining the benefits of low down torque and high rev performance, the triple engine truly defines its athletic spirit.

STYLING: with hard-edged street looks, exposed engine, unmistakable twin headlamps and low mounted silencer this is a pure rider’s bike. A striking new wheel design reduces un-sprung mass which improves dynamics and agility. The all-new Street triple is available in Phantom Black, Crystal white, and Caribbean Blue. And for an even sportier edge, the Street triple r comes in Phantom Black, Crystal white, and Matte Graphite and is enhanced with a red rear sub frame, red side radiator cowls, and red pin stripe detailing to the wheels.

FLY SCREEN: the injection moulded Fly Screen offers enhanced wind protection without adding any unnecessary bulk to the Street triple and Street triple r’s pared down street style. It’s finished in all 2013 color options to complement the Street triple’s aggressive lines.

CNC MACHINED BRAKE RESERVOIRS: Machined from 6061 t6 aluminum, these anodized black brake reservoirs are the finishing touch to the Street triple and Street triple r. Featuring laser-etched branding and knurled lid, they replace the standard plastic items and compliment the CNC machined brake and clutch levers and other machined triumph components.

BLACK ALUMINUM PADDOCK STAND BOBBINS: Look the part on race and track days with black-finished triumph-branded Paddock Stand Bobbins. Precision machined from acetal for durability, they also feature turned aluminum compression limiters.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS): riding is all the more exhilarating when you know that your tyre pressure is optimized. optional tyre pressure sensors for Street triple and Street triple r display current front and rear tyre pressures via the instrument panel. Automatic warning alerts let the rider know immediately if tyres are below optimum levels.

TRIUMPH FRAME PROTECTORS: the Street triple and Street triple r don’t just have a tough image, they also have the option of robust Moulded Nylon Frame Protectors to minimize structural damage in the event of a drop. the Street triple is the first model in the triumph range designed from concept to accept this type of frame protection. tested to ensure the highest quality, there is no substitute for original triumph engineering. engine casing and front spindle protection also available.
