Triumph Street Triple R

What to know about the Street Triple R

This record is the Street Triple R as Triumph Motorcycles India specified it at launch on 11 August 2020, and the figures come from the table in that release, which states that specifications are as per the ARAI certificate. It is a 765cc liquid-cooled in-line three with 118 PS at 12,000 rpm and 79 Nm at 9,350 rpm in a six-speed gearbox fitted with Triumph Shift Assist — an up-and-down quickshifter — as standard equipment.

The specification is written around the front end. Showa 41 mm upside-down separate-function big-piston forks and a Showa piggyback reservoir monoshock are listed, both adjustable for preload, compression and rebound, and the braking hardware is twin 310 mm floating discs with Brembo M4.32 four-piston radial monobloc calipers at the front and a 220 mm disc with a Brembo single-piston caliper behind. The frame is an aluminium beam twin-spar front end with a two-piece high-pressure die-cast rear section, driving the rear wheel through a twin-sided cast aluminium swingarm.

What the launch document does not state, this record does not claim. There is no kerb weight and no top speed, because Triumph publishes a dry weight of 168 kg and no maximum-speed figure for this model year; the 19.6 kmpl mileage row is the manufacturer’s 5.1 l/100 km ARAI figure converted, not a measured or reported number. Instruments are the LCD units named in the release, riding modes are Road, Rain and Sport, and the seat height on this listing is 825 mm. The colour names are absent because the India document lists none.
