STREET TRIPLE
Triumph's Street Triple has been one of the success stories of
recent years collecting numerous accolades along the way and being
recognised for delivering class leading dynamics alongside an
unforgettable riding experience. Fusing the style and attitude of
the Speed Triple with the agility of the Daytona 675, and
delivering it all for a very competitive price, it wowed the
industry when it arrived in 2007.
For 2013, the all new Street Triple has been completely
redesigned to offer an even more exhilarating ride. Heralding the
change is an all new chassis. A brand new aluminium beam twin spar
frame meets a new two piece high pressure die cast rear subframe.
Not only is the chassis robust and hard edged, it's also advanced.
Engineered to optimise dynamism, agility and rider enjoyment, the
design is lighter thanks to fewer pieces and fewer welds in the
frame.
Pride of place in the new lightweight chassis is the new low boy
stainless steel exhaust. Not only does this provide a sharp new
look but it offers a significant contribution to redistributing the
centre of gravity and the weight of the exhaust. Its clever design
and optimised mass centralisation has also afforded Triumph's
engineers the opportunity to tweak the geometry, reducing the rake
to 24.1º and increasing the trail by 0.5mm to 99.6m. As a
package, it adds up to razor sharp dynamic handling in a confidence
inspiring package weighing just 183kg, fully fuelled and ready to
ride. A substantial 6kg saving over the outgoing
model.
The fantastic handling of the Street Triple is complimented by
KYB suspension via 41mm upside down forks. Stopping power is
provided by a confidence inspiring dual 310mm floating disc front
brake set up, with Nissin two-piston sliding callipers.
The heart of the Street Triple remains the liquid-cooled,
12-valve, 675cc three-cylinder engine. Combined with the close
ratio six speed gearbox, the 106PS at 11,850rpm unit delivers all
the drive you need whilst delivering a peak 68Nm across its linear
torque curve. The power plant has been tuned for incredibly strong
low-to-mid range performance and delivers an exhilarating ride that
can be enjoyed by riders of all ages and experience.
Despite its entry level positioning in the Triumph roadster
range, the new Street Triple comes with a high level of equipment
as standard. Included is an engine immobiliser whilst further
security can be added via an accessory Triumph D lock which can be
stored under the seat. Comprehensive LCD digital instrumentation
includes a built in lap timer, programmable gear change lights,
fuel gauge, clock and gear indicator, as well as a large tachometer
and digital speedo. The unit is also able to display front and rear
tyre pressures when the optional Triumph Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System is fitted.
Three metallic colour options are available for the New Street
Triple in 2013: Phantom Black, Crystal White and striking Caribbean Blue.
STREET TRIPLE R
Highly regarded for its light and intuitive handling, the 2013
Street Triple R takes things to a whole new level. Its 41mm
inverted front forks are fully adjustable for preload, rebound and
compression damping to give the expert rider freedom to set the
motorcycle up for their specific needs. The rear monoshock is an
equally high quality item, adjustable for preload and rebound
damping. Twin 310mm floating front discs and powerful four-piston
Nissin radial callipers take care of the braking department.
Altogether the package offers a setup that can be easily
configured to suit track or road riding, whilst at the time
providing the security of incredible stopping power. A revised
geometry of 23.4º / 95.0mm completes the picture.
Visually, the R model adds a red rear subframe, red pinstripe
details to the wheels and a red detailed radiator shroud featuring
a dominant R logo.
Three colour options are available for the new Street Triple R
in 2013: Phantom Black, Crystal White and Matt Graphite.
