Triumph Street Triple

Triumph Street Triple is a motorcycle with a starting price of Rs 10.17 Lakh. It is available in India in 5 variants and 4 colours with high end variant price starting from Rs 12.07 Lakh. Street Triple is powered by a 765 ccbs6-2.0 engine which develops a power of 130 PS and a torque of 80 Nm. It has Double Disc front brakes and Disc rear brakes. The weight of Triumph Street Triple is 188 kg and comes with a fuel tank capacity of 15 L.

Triumph has shown off its updated Street Triple range, which makes more power and gets fancier electronics, along with a special Moto2 edition now. More details on the three trims in this story.

While the silhouette of the Street Triple remains more or less intact, subtle styling tweaks make the motorcycle look a bit more fierce. The revised headlight cowl, fascia integrated air intake, edgier radiator shrouds, new belly pan and a sharper tail evoke this striking feeling. The Moto2 edition also gets special carbon fibre bits as well as Moto2 branding.

Triumph has put its Moto2 learnings to good use, providing a whole host of updates to its 765cc triple motor. On the Moto2 edition and RS, the engine is tuned to pump out 130PS and 80Nm, while the R now makes 120PS and 80Nm. That’s a sizeable gain in performance. To put down this kind of performance in a neat manner, the Street Triple gets IMU-aided electronic aids like lean-sensitive traction control and cornering ABS. Each riding mode has been optimised with improved throttle maps. 

Another notable update on the RS, also seen on the Moto2, is the presence of Brembo Stylema front brake calipers. Sadly, the R still has to make do with older-spec Brembo M4.32 monoblocs. 

Triumph is expected to launch the updated Street Triples by May 2023. We figure there will be a price hike of around Rs 50,000-Rs 75,000 for the updates. Despite the price hike, the Triumphs will continue to provide phenomenal value-for-money over its competition like the Kawasaki Z900, Ducati Monster, and BMW F 900 R.
