Triumph’s Top-Shelf Triple: The 2021 Triumph Speed Triple RS​

Contents​


The Triumph Speed Triple RS is the top of the range naked roadster from Triumph Motorcycles. Thanks to a number of impressive tweaks from Triumph, the Speed Triple RS claims to be the most powerful, responsive, and best sounding triple ever! If you want to unleash your inner hooligan, this is the best model in the 2021 Triumph line-up for the job.

The 2021 Triumph Speed Triple RS draws power from a British-made 1,050cc Liquid-cooled, 12 valve, DOHC, inline 3-cylinder engine that produces a potent 148 horsepower and 86 lb-ft of peak torque. It’s a powerful ride, but the real secret to the Speed Triple RS’s success isn’t the engine, but the comprehensive electronics package that complements it.

Boasting five riding modes (Road, Rain, Sport, Track, and Rider-configurable), optimized cornering ABS, traction control, cruise control, and Triumph’s own all-new shift assist quick-shifter, the Speed Triple RS is a powerful and advanced motorcycle, with plenty of bells and whistles. What’s more, it also has fully adjustable Ohlins suspension, high-spec Brembo brakes, a keyless ignition, LED DRLs, and a full-color TFT display too. And that’s only a snapshot of what is on offer.

For 2021, the Speed Triple RS is available in two color options: Matt Black or Crystal White.

The 2021 Triumph Speed Triple RS starts from $16,500 USD / $18,300 CAD.

Ergonomically optimized stylish new backlit switch cubes for fast intuitive access to bike functions, including 5-way joystick to navigate TFT instrument screen, riding modes button and new cruise control switch.

FOUR RIDING MODES​

NEW CRUISE CONTROL​

Fitted as standard for the first time on the Speed Triple, cruise control can reduce rider fatigue on long distance journeys and is quickly enabled and disabled via the left hand switch cube for additional convenience.

DRL HEADLIGHTS​

Daytime Running Lights are an impressive way of increasing your visibility with a distinctive light profile. These are incorporated into the headlamps, which are set characteristically low to reflect the Speed Triple’s nose-down focused attitude.

MAJOR ENGINE UPDATE AND IMPROVED GEARBOX​

The latest Speed Triple is lighter, with an updated 1050cc engine, more responsive throttle, and improved gearbox to deliver even more power and the most agile, sharp and focused ride you’ve ever had on this explosive bike.

GRADED SLIP-ASSIST CLUTCH​

Improving the clutch ‘feel’ by reducing lever effort, bringing a lighter touch than you’d expect; perfect for long journeys or stop-start urban commutes.

Triumph Shift Assist​

All-new Triumph designed system that enables smooth up/down gear changes without the use of the clutch, reducing rider fatigue.

NEW RESTYLED SILENCERS​

Contemporary new black, race-style, freer flowing twin upswept silencers, with a larger bore and a more slender stainless steel end cap and aluminum heat shield.

NEW WHEELS WITH HIGH SPECIFICATION BRAKES AND TIRES​
