Hi Chris, as an ex Australian Superbike racer, I absolutely love listening to your no nonsense, humble reviews and honest impressions. Simply Awesome! Keep up the great work you do. 👍😎🇦🇺

Chris's reviews are still the best. I just wish the suspension on the RR was also on the RS and that Triumph had given us an affordable R base version of the Speed Triple.

I’m really enjoying Chris’ reviews at the moment, he strikes that wonderful balance of clearly being a master of his craft with appropriate knowledge of the bikes you would expect of somebody who’s talking about something they are passionate about, and a big kid that makes him relatable. Great job sir and the rest of the team. An enjoyable 12 mins of my life.

Really like Chris' reviewing style -- nice mix of the specs and the subjective. Very sensible, with no cliches or silly hype. Clearly an excellent rider too.

I just bought the bike in April 2024, new with 0 km on it and love it! Had the SFV4 before as well as the Panigale V2 before it and must say it trumps them both in fun, suspension and motor as well as looks. What a bike! Next stop, Sepang! ❤

Chris always give a honest review on his tests. It’s makes an entertaining review to watch, there are other platforms vlogs that do reviews but they struggle to match this level. Good up the amazing work guys 👏.

I'm autistic and only watch motorcycle reviews on YT... Chris is absolutely the GOAT bike reviewer. I went out and bought the speed triple 1200 RS after watching y'alls video on it about a hundred times.

Stunning! Triumph is chaining in a series of great looking bikes. I'll want a used one in 10 years, when this nomoney period hopefully has passed? Perhaps? Gotta believe in it. Yes?

Great review 👍🏻👍🏻 Although this would not be a bike I’d buy for £17k+ I’m sure it’s a great bike but there are so many great choices in that price bracket.

Such a great speaker, love listening to your insights. Keep up the great work

I don’t even see myself owning one of these, even if I had the money 😅 (the RS is still tasty though) but I watched it because I really enjoy knowing your thoughts on bikes. Pure class, Chris 👌

That's gorgeous 😍 Just bought a new Speed Twin - if I was younger I'd have bought this instead, but after 10 years on a Thruxton my bones needed more comfort 😅 This will sell like hot cakes, not too expensive, good performance and looks the business !! Love this, really good review thank you 👍👍

It has a very "modern-retro" look about the front fairing. I love it.

Great description and review, been teetering on buying one and I think you just sold one. Thank you Chris.

Great review, thanks 👍🏻 and I must say, far more in depth than the other channels for what is really a new model.

Love your reviews, simple and straight

The bikini fairing kind of reminds me of the Ducati 900ss cr, I really dig it!

Delighted to have watched this video! Thanks for quality reviews, guys!!!

Awesome vid, guys! Loved it.

Such a brilliant review...as always!

A joy to watch this guy. Nuff said

not a first ride, but its the first comment. still a win😊

Finally been waiting over a decade

The more knowledge i receive on all bikes after riding alot of different types is the appreciation for an all around great machine when it comes to anything off of the track iv figured out u can be fast on almost anything im able to run away from 80% of the sport bikes i ride with on my gf's rebel 500 on tight twisty's and flat disappear on my concourse 14 across the board and i have to put forth some effort on my 636 to stay with my buddy on his tuned Indian Scout dragging the kick stand its unbelievable what a motorcycle cycle is capable of with a good rider but love these vids and bikes and Chris ur simply a badass on everything 2 wheeled much respect and i need to see u with the @44Teeth boys more often Cheers.

Cracking review as always

Looks stunning!!

thank you! great review, great comments ,greats vid and pics like always, seems like a wonderful machine to go have fun with on the twisties, take care! Greetings from Still Bay, South Africa

For me it’s looks useful on the road and on the track for who is going to , and it’s also looks really nice , well done

Truly a "gentlemans sportbike", I'd love to own one.

I like it. With things like the busa out there, having a touch of 'beast mode' in a lineup is a good idea - hope they sell well. Seems to me the 1100/1200 area works well for those who want decent power but probably don't find the track. This one should be a great canyon carver. Good move by Triumph to skip past the one liter mark.

Yes please.

Excellent review, content, perspective

Thank you for this review. Very helpful.

Gorgeous bike! Great riding.

Looks great!

That's a very cool package - well done, Triumph!

Chris mate. Another clear, concise, pragmatic review.

Been waiting for Chris's review!

Another awesome BW review - keep it going guys and gals.

I sat on one of these in earlier this year in France. I has a 2006 Daytona 675 and I loved that bike. If may get this 1200 one day. Triple

As always, a great review. 👍

Great job as always. I never knew that our favorite bike Journalist at MCN was so fast on track. He looked really comfortable following you there on track, and we all know you are no slouch when it comes to track riding.

Chris you are my favorite bike reviewer out there! Man this bike looks so perfect for me but here in the states it starts at over $20k! With the amount of work I've already done to my MT-10 to be a better track bike I just cannot justify spending that much money on a new bike :(

fantastic review chris! love the fairness as some other slam it for all the things it’s saying it isn’t supposed to be.

What a machine!

Great review!

Best motorcycle reviewer on youtube!

In the flesh it is one beautiful machine.

You've really got to see this bike in person to appreciate the new look.

Well done triumph. Keep at it Norton you’ll get there too

I think this is going to be an absolute belter. My biggest complaint of superbikes over the last 20 years is how track focussed they have become. They make massive compromises on the road for a tenth here and there on track in stock trim but if you're doing regular track days or racing it you're goign to change a lot of the bits that make it extreme anyway. Remember the early Fireblade? It was pretty much as fast as anything on a track but it still had a boot, a comfy seat and riding position and was tractable, geared properly and made a brilliant fast road bike. I also seem to remember it being the best selling bike for a while. This makes me think of those. A nice, large, mostly flat torque curve from a relatively oversized engine in a chassis thats track able but road focussed. I'm even ok with the price. Yes its high but its also got some quality kit on it to justify that price and compared to some its knocking on £5k cheaper. So you could get this and a cheap track bike with the savings. I would like to see a slightly more stripped down version without the electronics and other bits it really doesn't need at a lower price but for now this is fine.

Awesome review man. That bike seems equally excellent. I think striking the perfect balance is a master-stroke from Triumph. 😊 I'm not a fan of super-nakeds and at over 50 getting a bit over superbikes. This is definitely an answer.

As always, I really enjoy Chris’s ability to clearly and concisely communicate his analysis of a new bike, in a way that both helps potential customers decide where the bike fits into their list of bikes to consider and also speaks directly to more experienced riders who are mentally comparing its characteristics to bikes they are familiar with. I think one type of customer for this bike would be someone who owns full-on sports bikes and loves riding them on track and who is looking for something similar with tamed down ergonomics and performance around town and on the road. I think the styling looks great, evidenced by some of the footage of the biked leaned away from the camera on track. Another thing: You always notice, hanging out trackside between sessions, that Triumph triples with good exhaust systems have a unique, fantastic sound, just as you can tell when an RSV4 or R1, or a Ducati L-Twin or V4, fly by.

Beautiful! Wish I could afford one.

What a tester love him

There are so many awesome bikes out there today and this is definitely one of them. It truly is a golden age of motorcycling. BTW Chris, I would love to see you review the new Kawasaki KLX300SM.

Great video! Nice looking bike for sure!

This is definitely in my top picks for a 2022 bike - it's just going to be down to seat time for me. I had a 2007 675 as my track bike and it was simply the best thing I've ever ridden - even after trying other purpose built track bikes. I've never had a Triumph as a "daily rider" and I don't have any experience with the dealer network or warranty claims, so it's something to consider.

The bike design giving me mv agusta vibes. An absolute beauty none the less

Insane riding 👏👏

What a review!

Nicely done!

Great review I just had my Tiggr8 out last night. But PLEASE let's hear more of the BIKE.

Its alright being a skilled rider like Chris but the real talent is being able to communicate his opinions to us mere mortals who arnt track experts etc. & just enjoy the whole experience of owing & riding in all weathers & conditions in the real world. TOP MAN TOP REVIEW

This my dreams motorcyler! 🤲🤲🤲

Great review! I reckon Triumph is onto a winner here - I'd have one!

I love the look of this bike, the spec is near perfect, but the price is $1,500 higher than a Tuono V4 Factory in the US. I could not resist the Italian.

Excellent, mature review. Biking needs more journalism like this. I'll be pulling the trigger on an RS in spring, but wish Triumph would announce they are fitting electronic suspension to RS in the meantime.

Love it

Great review. On twisty road the 200hp sportsbikes are like having a 2 foot willy, you can kid yourself, but you're only using a bit of it....can I say that ?!

Why does anyone want a litre triumph sports bike? Is there not enough great bikes on the market? It’s not like it’s going to be cheaper or better than them. This rr is a great road bike and wish we had more choices like this.

MV style Triumph, love those standard engine sound

Sounds like it’s the perfect “sport” bike. They killed it with the scrambler 1200xe. Triumph makes super unique bikes that are exactly what we want.

Good review 👍

Gorgeous bike. The styling appeals to me more than any other Hinckley to date. If the advertised weight is accurate -- and the tested curb weights I've seen for the RS suggest marketing honesty on that count -- it's impressive that the fairing and electronic suspension only add 1lb.

They really need to make a new proper +1000cc Daytona IMHO! If they do I'll buy one!

Have had the last gen speed triple rs which was too stiff for anything but smooth roads it would make more sense to me to fit semi active suspension to the new RS and standard on this.

I just love everything about the bike the only thing I would like is a darker color choice but that’s just my preference and nothing more. Both RS and RR speed triple’s are amazing I love them both I want them both. Soon !!!

Good looking bike

It reminds me of a time, where half faired sport nakeds was a thing. It's like good old Suzuki SV1000 S or Honda VTR 1000F (I have one at home). It's acceptable for longer rides (I rode a 500km day and got a bit sore wrists and knees, but nothing catastrophical) and much more at home while thrashing it. A really like the concept.

Great review! I’m an R1 guy since early 2000’s, now, with 50 years on my butt, she seems to be the perfect match. Nice approach from Triumph.

Chris 👍👍👍

Great review Chris! Would love to hear your opinion on the norden 901!

This or V2 Panigale? Leaning towards V2.

Does the fairing do anything? Does it provide any meaningful wind protection?

Would be cool to see also a Trident 660 with similiar styling for those of us who live across the pond in Tax Hell (35k GBP equiv. for the 1200 RR).

I havent seen it in the flesh but I think it looks stunning. I think I prefer the white though.

I feel like this fits Triumph more than a full on SS would overall and will probably sell better for them as well. I like the looks and riding position of it over the RS.

I think Triumph have got a winner, here.

Best Truimph since the 675. 👌

Nice one as usual Christopher! Gotta ask, who was the guy following you on track? He seemed pretty familiar with the bike and track 😉

Cris and fagan best bike reviewers out there

I like the reviewer, I subscribed

Chris i just hoped that ypu will introduce us all the eicma motocycle whereas now i realize you are not belong to fair we like you to ride crazy bikes on crazy roads and track. Hope you will make more review, we missed your reviews… Greetings from turkey

Cracking bike But realistically 15K tops

Nice

Some guy's ripped up the N'ring with one of these machines. It goes as good as it looks.

Nice, honest review as always. BTW who is the guy behind you at the track footage? He is so relaxed at that speed...

great review. i would never buy this bike, but this RR treatment applied to the #triumph #streettriple 765 would be right up my alley.

I like the yamaha mt10sp . With an after market wind screen .
