Many have come and gone since the first Speed Triple created the class in 1994, but the latest incarnation of Triumph’s naked sport still rules the roost.
At 130, the Speed Triple has the most powerful version of the 1050cc three-cylinder engine snarling beneath the rider. Stripped for action from its iconic twin headlamps to the stubby rear end, the high-specification of the Speed Triple shines through. Make no mistake, this is no dumbed down sportsbike with the fairing off. This is the real deal.
From the adjustable 43mm upside down forks to the four-piston Brembo brakes and tapered aluminium Magura handlebars, the Speed Triple boasts quality components from head to toe. Premium details like the single-sided swingarm and multi-spoke alloy wheels complete the unmistakable Speed Triple look, with the stubby dual exhausts delivering the unique three-cylinder soundtrack in booming stereo.
