As a man in his sixties and the owner of 31 bikes over the years three bikes stood out for me as personal favourites, the 1980 Yamaha 350LC, the first R1 (1998) and the 2014 GSX-R750 but since getting my Street Triple RS six weeks it's my new number one, that IMO is how good it is, it has raised the bar for middleweight nakeds.

Great looker! Got to get a ride on one!👍🏻

New sub here, love the no BS "average Joe" perspective you present to the audience. This bike is on my radar and your videos on it are very much solidifying my decision. Thanks for the content and ride safe brother!

Just realized you went over 1,000 subscribers! CONGRATS!!

Great review as always!! The license plate and blinker upgrades look great, and can't wait to see how the exhaust comes out.

Enjoyed talking to you yesterday down at the reservoir! Great video Ken!

Great video my friend. Appreciate all the input.

I just got a Monster. Love the naked bike look. Your bike looks almost as good as my Ducati. lol

Awesome! Love the 24s. I have a ‘22 RS. The only thing I wish it had was cruise control. I’m 47 and have had many bikes, street and road. This is my favorite one. The street triple is the best middleweight naked. And perhaps one of the best all around naked bikes. It’s great for general use motorcycling, loves curvy roads, it’s smooth and refined, the quick shifter is awesome. And it’s also great for track days. I do some light touring on mine. I can ride it all day no problem. But it’s obviously not an ADV or bagger. For a guy like me that does a few hundred miles of backroad riding every week as a hobby it’s as good as it gets.

Ayyy, fellow NC rider with a Cosmic Yellow! I just got my striple in yellow a month ago from the Motorcycles of Charlotte Triumph dealer!

G'Day Ken. Glad you are really into the Trumpy 765RSbrother. I'm sure it wil most definitly scratch that "hooligan" itch for a while to come. Going to love to hear the sound when the exhaust is done mate. Speaking of new bikes brother,I had to make the dreaded decision about whether or not to keep the fjr1300. After a couple of scary "Oh sh*t!!" moments of late, I had no real choice but to let the girl go. My medical situation has finally dictated that I get something lighter and smaller which will allow me to keep on riding even though the distances travelled are somewhat reduced. "Say hello to my little friend" as Al Pacino once said. Goodbye fjr1300, hello Royal Enfield 650 Interceptor. No laughing please!! LOL. Great bike, old style, 154.5 lbs lighter than the fjr and i didn't have to use a single penny of my own money to buy it!! In fact, the will pay ME to have it. Great trade in price which also allowed me to accessorize the bike to the max, including an aftermarket full exhaust system. Sounds so deep and throaty compared to the stock system. Hell, I even get to put a few grand into the bank as a bonus! The money into the bank was the reason my beloved wife didn't hit me around the ears with a rolling pin when I told her about it. 🤕🤣 Getting the "Baker Express" colour code, so I have to wait a couple of weeks for it to get to the dealer,. So there you have it brother, I'm finally broken enough to warrant going from the "big boys bikes", to the more sedate, but still fun "half pint" bike. Life goes on. Had to laugh when you started speaking in the 3rd person context, but hey, your bloody lucky mate. Nine of the ten voices in MY head tell me I'm a nutjob, whereas the last one just f**king hums!! Go figure!😜🤣🤣. Anyway brother,enjoy the hell out of your new Trumpy and I appreciate the ride and the conversation as usual. Ride fast, ride safe.

The new exhaust sounds amazing bro 😎 nice 👍🏾

I’d say this is a really nice color and high visible for those blind puppy eyes cagers🤣🤣🤣🤣 It sure looks great there Ken!! Maybe if you put the second receiver in the rear of the bike we would get some awesome sound even with the stick exhaust😉 I know I would hehe. It’s a quality bike for sure. Thanks again for sharing this Ken now gotta go sell the Road King and buy me one🤣🤣

That scenery😍

Brilliant review brah , I didn’t even test my Speed Triple when I bought it . I just loved the way it sounded on KZfaq so I went to the dealership sat on it and said “ yup I’ll buy it “ 😂 I came back a week later and bought it and for the first few days I loved the bike but after a year I kinda realised that 180 hp is just too much , I don’t have the skills to actually use it , I use about 6000 rpm and that’s it So now I’m seriously considering getting the Street Triple 😂🤘🏾

Love it

Cosmic Yellow 💛

making you feel good on the bike…very important! i’m a 53yr old guy on a 2022 ktm 890 duke. naked all the way😊

Hi mate. Great video!! Picking up my silver RS next week and can’t wait. Could you let me know what phone case and mount you used for this please 🙏. Thanks

Nice bike. I picked one up in silver and love it. Question for you, how'd you get the side panels off to swap out the turn signals?

I just tried to install my Leo Vince yesterday on my 2024 (with 2021 headers) and i found a couple things. 1, the stock radiator bracket hits the 2021 headers, so i just drilled a hold above the one thats already there on the radiator mount and it worked flawlessly. Also, they do not include a specific exhaust hanger on the 2024s so the exhaust NEEDS to bolt to the rear sets. Leo's do not work because of this, But i think the Yoshi bolts to the rear set so you should be all good there! The headers are super easy to install!

Hey Ken, great video,that yellow sure is growing on me lol,are you planning on doing a first service video when its time?

Brilliant review. What’s the low to mid range torque like? That’s where I would send most of my time on it.

Do you get any vibes in the bars at 70ish cruising? How are the rpm's? Does it feel revd out? Nice cruise and subd.

Hello from Arizona! Nice review and beautiful bike. Can you ride all year in your part on NC?

Hey man, did you try 3rd gen mt09? I have mt09 2021 and I am thinking about switching to RS. Weekend rides in the twisties 90% of the time is what I do

the stock tail really isn't hideous..actually one of the best stock ones out there

Hi Ken! Nice video! I’m a new owner of Street Triple RS silver ice color from Italy, Turin. It’s a great bike, although I still have to learn to ride it (my previous bikes: Ducati Multistrada and Yamaha Tracer 900…so different!). I didn’t understand everything about you video: where is the lake?

Liking your vids. Just got a ‘24 Striple R myself. What signals did you end up going with? Also I notice you’re in NC. I’m in Raleigh. Hit me up if you’re close and you wanna ride sometime.

I wonder if you could put a side saddle hard bag on the side like the tourer bikes have

Hi Ken, where did you get the tail tidy and signal lights?

They apparently did change the exhaust to increase flow, and that may of been in the headers. So changing it to a previous models version **may impact performance.

Sounds like triumph just haven’t disabled the TPMS for stock. Coz you can add sensors from the accessories catalogue.

Can you install yoshimura at2 slip on directly or do you need some mods for it? I checked their website but they didn’t say it supports current year version.

Do you feel you could do a 400 mile day on that bike and be comfortable?

what is the tail pack you have, the offical one?

Which place is this you are riding through?

You keep talking about ergonomics, how tall are you/what inseam?

Great bike, great review. A few thoughts. It’s not a ‘young man’s bike’, it’s a bike. Why harp on age so much? I’m probably around your age, and I don’t consider myself old. We have a few things in common: I owned a 2017 FZ09, I own a red 2024 STR 765 RS, and I’m 58-years-old. I love this bike, as well, much better than the FZ. Ride safe (or dangerous if you prefer). 😈

Im 53 and thinking about this, how is it on your knees

Struggling between this Street Triple (in silver ice) and the Yamaha MT-09 SP -- because of the higher torque and the much better MPG (around 50 mpg plus). I used to ride liter bikes. Any suggestions?

Thoughts about trading a r6 for this exact bike ?

Hi, you are not running in your bike, are you?

Seems im watching someone in the future as its still 2023 for me

Mt 10 more comfy?

An amazing bike that you can't get out of 3rd gear because anything above 70 mph and you are being hammered by the wind. The bike would be so much better with a full fairing.

There is no auto for me for "on-bike" footage (from 5:07 to the. end)
