2020 Triumph Street Triple RS First Ride Review: Image Gallery

The Triumph Street Triple RS is a motorcycle that is fun and easy to ride, may it be the road or at a track. The motorcycle feels planted and encourages the rider to push further, thus making the experience much more enjoyable. Now, Triumph has brought in a more improved version of the motorcycle in the form of its 2020 edition which we recently rode in Spain. The motorcycle is due for its India launch in January and is expected to receive a slight hike in price. That being said, here’s a detailed photo gallery of the sweet-looking naked from Triumph to ogle at!

Compared to the current generation Street Triple RS, the new one receives subtle design updates, that makes it look much sharper and meaner despite the softer edges. There's a new fly screen and new mirrors too for better visibility of what’s happening behind.

The bug-eyed twin-pod headlamp now features prominent LED DRLs that are accompanied by the new reflectors for the headlamps.

As for the motor, it is the same 765cc inline-triple that still churns out the same amount of power. However, Triumph has updated the power and torque graph for a stronger mid-range to make the riding experience more spirited.

The instrumentation remains the same in the form of a full-colour TFT screen that now gets updated layouts. It continues to feature a swivel mechanism allowing the rider to adjust the tilt as required.

The most noticeable change in terms of design is present on the side and tail panels, which are now new. It is now sleeker and has better contours making the motorcycle more appealing when seen from behind. Furthermore, it also gets a redesigned rear seat cowl and a new belly pan.

While the current Street Triple RS is already a sweet-handling motorcycle, Triumph has opted to not touch the chassis and cycle parts. But it comes with new lighter wheels that are wrapped around with upgraded Pirelli Diablo Corsa SP V3 tyres.

The new 2020 Street Triple RS continues to be equipped with fully adjustable Showa USDs up front and Ohlins monoshock at the rear. Meanwhile, the braking hardware is taken care of by Brembo units with top-spec M50 calipers.

On a racetrack, the RS is such a well-balanced motorcycle that it manages to mask one's mistakes, shortcomings, and even a poor judgment of speed so well, that one can’t help but fall in love with it.

Triumph has managed to do this by completely reworking the exhaust system including a change in the exhaust cam. It has also changed the intake duct design. And, there’s the optimisation of parts like the balancer, the crank and the clutch to reduce the inertia.

When out riding on the road, the Street Triple RS quickly reminds of the comfy seating ergonomics. The handlebars are wide, the seat isn’t too hard or high, and even though the footpegs are rearset, they aren’t extremely so.
