Thanks to Holeshot motorcycles for letting me test the Street Triple RS out.
My opinion, it’s one of, if not the best middle wait naked sports bikes you can get.

I traded in my 2020 RS for the new model and still find it hard to believe how much Triumph improved what was already a great bike, the handling is sharper but still planted and the shorter gearing has really pepped up low to mid range acceleration, plus the stylemas have moved the breaking to as good as it gets, a superb bike that's raised the bar for naked middleweights.

Lmao, the gearing is so tall. The first few gears aren’t usable, you have to short shift because I’m hitting the rev limiter. They nailed it regarding the geometry, but the bike is slow!!!

Hi, I own the 1290 SAS as well and just ordered the yellow RS on top of it. I had exactly the same impressions on my test ride and could not resist to buy one 👍🏻It is so smoooooth and rides so easy. If you have the chance to own both bikes… do it !!! Cheers

Good review - i agree not a huge fan of the yellow myself - which actually seems very popular with most folks. The CRUISE control is an extra you can get on the RS but NOT the R- heated grips are an extra - needs a radiator protector - and a longer hugger and tail tidy and you have one VERY nice bike. I plan on getting one and doing all of the above :) Enjoyed the review - relaxed style.

Nice to hear someone say that they like the 765 RS more than the MT-09. I got to test ride a new Street Triple recently and I too, was completely blown away on how silky smooth the engine was. I was gonna get the MT-09 before that but I changed my mind. Everything about the Triumph is better, except the displacement of the engine and the mpg (unfortunately... 😕).

I've owned 3 Street Triple 765's over the last 4 years. 2 of them were the RS and the first one was the R. In-between those three I had the 2016 Tuono Factory (not even comparable to the 765) and also a 2017 Daytona 657r. Currently have a S1000XR but hey point is, I've gone back to the Street Triple 765 again and again because its a fkn amazing bike. Smooth, sounds amazing, has all the tech, yoshi-alpha-t slip on sounds bad ass, and everything!

This is encouraging, because after just two days of ownership, mine has an oil leak. I have the company big-wig involved. Unfortunately, I purchased it from a bottom feeder, who couldn’t give two shits…I was really on the fence with this bike. It was between this and the z900 SE. I currently own, and am not trading gen5 zx10r SE. I love the Japanese reliability and low cost of ownership. I track my zx10, and she’s fast, reliable, and can really drift coming hard out of an apex. I just hope this new Triumph isn’t an albatross.

@@RynoDineroactually had them exchange for a different bike. Same model, different color. Some will leak, some won’t. But apparently it’s assembly lube, and the break-in process. I’ve purchased several new Japanese bikes, never an issue. In hindsight, I should have bought the Kawasaki Z900 SE. This triumph is SLOW!!! Handles great, but the gearing is shit. 48t rear sprocket!!! WTF! It always seems like I’m looking for another gear, AND I’M IN 6TH!!! Hopefully a chain and sprocket 520 conversion with -2 in the rear will lower rpm’s. Now I have to invest in a piggyback fueler because I installed a full exhaust system. All in all, Triumph will NEVER compete to the japs or even new italian bikes. Tooling on my bike reveled all the low hanging fruit regarding poor craftsmanship. The parts I want to replace; i.e. rearsets, are heavy. Everything on this bike is heavy. It’s not going to be difficult to get this bike under 400lbs wet. The full exhaust and lithium battery alone was good for at least 15 pounds of unsprung weight. That’s the goal, light weight, decent suspension and handling should make this a handling beast, A real mountain carver.

The bikes you guys get are just as lean running as EU bikes ? There's so much gain in a good map even with the stock exhaust, making it richer in it's own solves part of the problem but it definitely creates space for some ignition timing changes. This engine is beast when derestricted. Still have a 2020 myself, both the new and my bike are euro 5 restricted with us, same rules so same issues are probably there to be solved by ecu magicians 👊

@photographerjonathan Жыл бұрын

I think the 2023 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS is the perfect bike, I love everything about it except for the lack of Wind protection. I don't know why companies don't seem to realize that people are buying naked bikes because of the ergonomics. not because they want to get hammered by the wind at anything above sixty mph. I test road the Yamaha Mt09 a couple of years ago and the XSR 900 just a couple of months ago, and I like the new XSR better than the MT09. but I like the Triumph more than either of them. and I haven't even tried the 2023 yet. the sound is so sweet. what a beautiful tone it has. I would never even consider changing the pipes. I could listen to that engine purring when I'm lying in bed getting ready to sleep. it's so sweet. but I just bought a bike that I am in love with which is a 2017 DUCATI Supersport that had only 2159 km on it. and the only other bike I would really love to own is this new Triumph. and if I get my own house with a garage I will probably buy one as soon as I see a second hand one come up for sale in like new condition. which might be a year from now. and a third consideration would be either the Z900RS. or maybe the BMW S1000R. and if I had all three I would have a V Twin, a triple and an inline 4. which would make me smile every time I entered my garage.

The S1000R is a fantastic bike but it’s a bit soulless, boring 🥱 BUT it’s because it does everything so perfectly, kinda in a robotic way ( if that makes sense 😂) The Triumph will make you smile and feel alive 🙌🏼☺️.. I’ve had both so that’s my opinion 👍🏾

Own a 2022 RS and had been on a XSR900 and it doesn’t compare - the RS is more upmarket and it shows in the initial price tag. The XSR900 is cheaper because it is build cheaper - it feels cheaply put together and you have to drop money to upgrade little parts here and there to make it feel right, the RS otoh is like fully done out of factory you don’t really need to do anything to it.

@@captain_midlife 100%. Ducati has a long way to go to catch up to the ride that the RS offers. The V2 was far too wrist'y, lacked the turning agility of the RS, had no fuel gauge, was hot and I caught my leg on all the wiring for the rear brake. It's just not made very well and seems they really cut some corners for profit, even the gauge cluster under acceleration vibrated wildly where I couldn't even see the dash. $AUD 25k was just too much and on top of that there's the unique Ducati servicing costs, then they asked 9k just for the exhaust. The Triumph maybe down on power but the RS made me think "dam, what a bike" when I got off it making it an easy choice. So... have you purchased yourself a new RS? 😆
