2016 Triumph Street Triple RX ABS

Street life doesn’t get more stimulating than this. The Street Triple Rx combines aggressive style and devilish good looks to create an extreme, eye-catching machine, borrowing inspiration from its supersports sibling, the Daytona 675R.

The highest-spec variant of our Street Triple R, its unique visual features include a razor-sharp profile and supersports bodywork, with flyscreen and belly pan as standard. The Street Triple Rx is finished with Diablo Red and Matt Aluminium Silver paint work, striking red wheels and fitted with a quickshifter to deliver a ride that lives up to the looks.

Nimble, punchy and brimming with three-cylinder character, the Triumph Street Triple’s sense of fun and adventure makes every ride, whether it’s on narrow city streets or wide open country roads, feel like the best you’ve ever had. Which is why a Street Triple means you never need an excuse to go for a ride.

Fun, simplicity and usability are the core principles of the Triumph Street Triple. From the punchy performance of the award-winning and widely acclaimed 675cc inline three-cylinder engine to the sublime agility of a lightweight, Daytona sportsbike chassis, the Street Triple is built from the ground up with a passion based on the sheer pleasure of riding.

For a more dynamic and sporting ride, the Street Triple R and RX adds high performance fully adjustable KYB suspension, radial Nissin brakes, styling enhancements and an extra level of agility and steering response.

• Power and Performance

The Street Triple’s soulful, potent in-line three cylinder motor delivers thumping midrange torque of 68Nm and a howling 106PS peak power, for hard-charging acceleration all the way up to the screaming 12,500rpm redline, so you can get your kicks anytime, anywhere.

• Technology

It may be small and powerful, but it’s perfectly formed. The 675cc inline triple, already naturally balanced for smooth power, runs an additional balancer for vibration-free riding. Advanced fuel injection and engine management gives precise throttle control and supreme ease-of-use.

• Exhaust

Located beneath the engine, the under-slung exhaust focuses weight close to the centre of gravity and adds to the Street Triple’s agility. The three-cylinder engine also generates evenly spaced exhaust pulses that harmonise combustion for maximum efficiency.

The Street Triple tunes you into every ride. Its steering geometry, handling balance and suspension ensures effortless agility, road-holding and ease-of-use, with thrills for every type of rider. For the ultimate in performance, the Street Triple R has uprated suspension, brakes and geometry to enhance sporty road and track riding.

Brakes aren’t just about outright power; control is vital too. The Triumph Street Triple’s four-piston Nissin calipers grip 310mm discs on lightweight, cast aluminium italic wheels, and are engineered to work in harmony with suspension and the overall motorcycle chassis balance. The sportier Street Triple R and RX use radially mounted four-piston Nissin callipers to integrate with enhanced suspension and chassis geometry.

With heritage from the Triumph Daytona 675 sports bike and echoing the ground-breaking 1995 T595 Daytona superbike, the Street Triple’s twin spar aluminium frame uses cutting-edge design to route incoming air through the headstock for maximum efficiency, as well as providing the perfect blend of rigidity and feel. The Street Triple R and RX feature a steeper head angle for extra steering response on sporty track and road riding. The Street Triple, Street Triple R and Street Triple RX feature an aluminium subframe, colour coded red on the Street Triple R and RX.
