Yes, that’s why I did.
Kawasaki
"Is the RS model worth the extra $2600 versus the R model?" Yes! Despite the higher price point, it's actually the counter-intuitive 'value' buy. The part content fully justifies it.
The more important question is: will you utilize and 'get' what the RS up-charge buys you?
I went with the 'R' ...a conscious (yet tough) choice, especially since I previously had the '20 'RS.'
That Cost is an Additional $900.00 more than the 2023 RS ….. REALLY ????
I’ll purchase the R and invest the almost $3k saved !!!!! Great Reviews on both these Models !!!! Merci 🎉
@@brianfeeney9493 you cannot get a lot of the added extras that the RS has added to the R.
One of the greatest powerplants ever put into a bike.
I couldn't say if the r is a better bike for the street than the rs. I have never ridden the r, but I do own the rs, and it's an absolutely lovely bike. If you are on the fence about getting one, just get it. It's truly amazing all around. From the sound to handling and comfort.
The RS has gorgeous paint options, super nice suspension and the option for cruise control makes the $2600 upcharge seem reasonable to me.
Watched many videos ; the rationale and understanding you’ve shared to help decide between R and RS is the best I’ found. Thanks !!
I was at the Triumph dealer yesterday. I’ve got to get on one of these one day.
Thanks for your efforts!
Have a great weekend! 🏍️💨
Thank you for such a detailed and practical focused review!
I love that color...
Had a 2018 RS and now have a Yamaha MT09Sp. The Triumph more supersport feel , stiffer but very precise. The Mt09sp more comfortable for sure, more agile. easier to ride , and more fun . Both great 👍
I discovered this channel recently. I like how Ian gives the information, describes the sensation, compares the tangibles, points out his own opinions and leaves the viewers to make their own conclusions. Good journalism!
Thanks
No. Triumph Hinckley UK is not even close to Yamaha Japan engineering, build, component and assembly quality. Triumph are approx at Aprilia level which is 6/10 at best. Yamaha Japan are the diamond 10/10 standard. There is no debate. Enjoy!@@BigRockMoto
Great review! Informative, concise and presented in a professional manner. Well done!
Thanks
Great to see a fully on road bike review btw. ❤
Very good review, I learned a lot and it was fun to watch
Hi, great trio of vlogs on these bikes very in-depth reviews. I’ve previously mentioned that my choice was the “R” model it’s more than enough for a 55 year old bloke who’s just got back on a bike after 30 yrs, the days of knee sliding for me are long gone but I still enjoying opening up the taps for a thrill :) overall very pleased with the street triple 👍🏻
Excellent review, enjoyed watching. What a bike...
Great video as always, beautiful bike
I really liked that sound check part
The yellow looks amazing. This actually looks like a Hornet, unlike the Honda Hornet 750
The engine sounds like a bee hive too
Great review Ian and an awesome looking bike that's for sure sounds Wild reformat the TFT and get those LED turn signals on there.
I love mine. I got a Carnival Red. I added TPMS, Frame sliders, cruise control and heated grips. It’s a really fun commuter bike and even tho I’m 40 the suspension isn’t harsh. I love to use the rider mode. Set my TCS to Sport, ABS to Road and Map to Track. Makes it really fun.
I agree! Carnival Red here too. I added the connectivity module, instead of the heated grips. My Rider setup is TCS/road, ABS/road, and Map/track.
I thought it was pronounced, cardinal, red? Anyway, 40? And you’re complaining. 🤦♂️
@@ridepastu1418 Cardinal red exists, however this bike is Carnival Red. 🤣
@@ridepastu1418 lol, thanks for the comment! Please reread what I wrote because I didn’t complain about anything. Safe riding, keep the tires tread side down. 🤙🏻
Seems like an amazing setup, awesome. I really miss cruise control on my 2022 RS, apart from that superb bike, love every minute riding it, urban or canyons. Took it to the dealer yesterday for servicing, already miss it 🥲
Your reviews are one the best in UA-cam ❤🎉😊
Thank you so much 😃
Love anything with a triple! 👍
The best bike I’ve ever owned
I love my street triple 765 such an easy to own easy to live with bike 😊
Did anyone else notice the ol' snowplow quad shooting shed room headlight at the RS? Can't blame the ol' guy, she is stunning! 😂❤️🏍️
11:00 I have this same exact bike, and have similar gripes about it the display.
Somehow the TFT on my 2018 765RS was better. You can make the text for the RMP larger btw...
Other than that, the bike is an absolute joy to ride. I use it to commute and hit up the canyons on the weekend. Absolutely love it.
The quick shifter on the 2024 is 100x better than the 2018 model
Great review! I have the same display on my Tiger 850, agree on the illegible tach. They have 4 different styles, they could have at least made one of them a traditional round tachometer!
The tach is probably my biggest of three minor issues I think this bike has.
@BigRockMoto ....Bar End Mirrors are standard on the RS. There is a 'machined' accessory available, but the ones on your bike were the standard version.
That reflector on the brake caliper looks amazing. Wonder how hot that caliper gets in heavy breaking?
Like the jacket. When it's time, I'll have to check out the Revit jackets. Been all Dianese and Alpinestars until now.
Awesome bike! Awesome review.
765 Rs was my first motorcycle. Really It is hard to choose next one ;)
I love the yellow RS but would likely never come lose to using all its available performance - that colour is gorgeous
Great bike, strange choice the TFT, there was the same on the previous version, that I owned. I think there was some technical issues preventing Triumph to upgrade it with this new iteration since everybody has been complained about that and they must have had some feedback. Thanks for the review ✌️
I have not made up my mind between the Street Triple RS, the MT 09 SP or the 890 Duke R. If I were Jay Leno I would own all three!. Another great review by a person that seems to like the bikes I like for the same reasons. Looks, quality components, awesome engine and comfort all combine to make the Street Triple a great bike that has received excellent reviews for years.
if i were to invest in a 3 cylinder its going to be the 765RS. yellow is gorgeous. 3 cylinder sound is just wow.
How do the riding dynamics of this compare to the most recent version of the Speed Twin 1200?
Awesome video.
Incredible content
How about seating position? Is the knee much more bent on the RS?
Also the rs seems to be more track oriented, the R is more road oriented, it is weird that they made cruise control available for the rs but not the R.
Good job of making the crucial point that it is important to buy the bike that suits your actual needs, rather than simply the one which provides the best "numbers". All too often, riders are wooed by marketing and hype into buying something they don't really need, simply because the experts say one is better performing. Everything is relative. Sometimes, the less exotic choice is actually the best one.
You're right about the TFT it's a real pain in the ass. I had to use the simple digital (numeral) rev counter on my bike, incidentally the bar end mirrors come as standard not as after market.
How do you find the bar end mirrors are they annoying ? Or not
I love the bar end mirrors, I even had the after market ones fitted to my street triple R@@stewnuts01
Considering that Mt09-SP is basically unobtainium these days, would you consider the Triple for sport touring purposes. Thank you.
Best by I’ve ever owned, and I’ve owned several (Ducati, Kawasaki, Yamaha, Honda).
The strange thing about the suspension is most reviews I have seen say that the R is better for the road with bad road surfaces etc….
This was due to the plushness of the ride, the handling stability presumably due to the 10mm lower ride height of the rear where as the RS is firmer, quicker to drop in to a corner and therefore better suited to the track.
I’m not sure if that contradicts your thoughts or not and let’s face it both bikes have fully adjustable suspension and different tyres for a start
Kip, I mean Ian, you mentioned the higher quality suspension on the RS. Can you comment on the relative stiffness of the springs and how that affects comfort for daily riding? I mentioned because other reviewers have said the RS suspension is noticeably more firm and might be less friendly to street riding. What are your thoughts?
Oh, and very good review!
I have a 2022 RS and I put 7000 miles on it, 60% urban 40% canyon/highways. It came with standard damper settings ("road"), and it felt a bit stiff to me because the pavement here is appalling. Then I set the dampers to "comfort" settings (less bump/rebound up front, less rebound at the rear), in the same pavement I got a significant improvement, I´d say it became tolerable for frequent commuting.
So you bought the MT09 SP instead of this. Can you tell us why? (I know you have a 660, is that it?)
Can you tour at all on either? I'm not seeing much/any aftermarket wind protection. Living in rural Oregon my Svartpilen 701 didn't like hwy miles much and wind was an issue for me so that's why I ask.
They lifted the dash UI straight from the Tiger 900 which has a much bigger screen size, hence the small text and numbers.
Even on the Tiger I don't like it much - no matter which view option it is always confusing.
Would you take this over the mt09sp?
Great video! Thanks!! The incandescent turn signals (5:57) are a US DOT regulation. Rest of the world (or at least most of the rest of the world) have LEDs all around on the Street Triple. The DOT needs to update its rules and bring it into the 21st century. 😊
Europe got LED :-)
Yeah I'd noticed that with US Spec Triumphs too. Everyone else gets the much better LEDs
...but UK gets those god awful billboard sized number plates. Poor bastards
RS for that yellow alone.
I set my front brake master ratio to 22 on the street and 19 for harder riding.
IMO the RS is worth the cost, it has better suspension, a bit more power, nicer display...
What is needs is both head lights on for hi and low beams, a way to flash the hi beams, some grab handles for the rear, cornering head lights and legible information on the display.
I have a 22 and love the bike, but it seems that some of the cost was for track related features, maybe there should be a Street Triple RR for those looking to do track, and then the RS, for street use.
a street bike review...yes!
I dont like that only one headlight is on. Can you adjust so that only the drl is on?
That's a winner winner chicken dinner
Excellent! Please one day ride a 890 Duke R. Owned both the 765 RS and the 890R. Duke wins for me, for fun factor. Thank you
I did not like the 890R... I've sold it 😞. The sound for me was a no no and no fun up in the rev's. By the time I was 60+ I was shifting till the 3rd almost. Yes it was fun down low but, too diesel type of feeling for me... Hope you enjoy your bike 😊
Thanks for the cool review! Is the tank really made out of plastic?
I believe that "tang" for the kickstand is known as a kickstand spur or stud.
Great review, thanks. Must be something with US laws that prevents Triumph from giving us the LED turn signals that Europe and the UK get. I believe their profile is too narrow. That really sucks. And don't forget, the much cheaper Trident DOES come with LED signals here. But they are not the same as UK. They are wider.
That's interesting. You guys in North America get older turn signal lights. I'm in Australia, our 2023/24 Street Triples get slimmer LED lights
RS Is definitely the extra money
Hello TRIUMPH 🎉
Wouldn’t It Make MORE Sense …..
To offer the Cruise Control on the “ R ? “
Additionally …… offer the “ R “ in the
Yellow please.
Merci
🤩🎊🥳👍🏻
And the moto2 version is back be right?
i gone trough the competitors. Z900 SE. but its lacking electronic package IMU, corner ABS.
I don't understand the manufacturers, Triumph included. Fuel injection is pretty much standard on all new model bikes. Cruise control should be included on all of them. What could it cost? $50? Who wouldn't want CC? Once you've ridden a bike w/CC, you never want to ride a bike w/out it.
Anyway,... solid review, as always, Love this bike. I'm sure it's a scream to ride. Even at 63, I think I'd enjoy this bike.
It's ride by wire, so it's just switchgear.
If the bike have a imu which most of them have, they can easily get a cruise control, but they just don’t give it to you to differ the segment, you want cruise, pay more, they want you to pay a few thousand dollars not few hundred.
even though i have a 180cc motorcycle, not that powerful, but i kind of giggle the same way when i put it in 3rd and accelerate the shit out of it,this triple is on a next level definitely
Strangely enough I’m debating getting this, the MT09-SP, or the 2024 390 duke for my next bike. I just want an upright bike with quality components suited for track riding, I’m tired of the awful brakes and suspension on my SV650.
I own this exact bike right now in this cosmic yellow, I would say if you care about the sitting position, go for the mt9sp would be more up right, the street triple is just a tiny touch more leaned forward. One thing I would say about the mt9 is that the breaks are not the finest, the street triple is definitely better at that part, but you could upgrade the brakes on the mt9 and it’s probably cheaper overall. I was debating between the two but I just can’t get over the looks of the mt9. I would say the street triple is definitely better on track, the mt9 engine is more fun on the road.
@@changliu7346I have this bike and owned the mtsp before this. I think the rs is better in every way except from being upright. On track or fast twisties this bike is king. I’m in the UK though so we have lots of twisty roads. In the USA I imagine straights are more important. The mt engine is powerful but agricultural compared to the triumph.
The Duke 390 is not in this category... not even close
@@truss6282 i know the 890 Duke is a better comparison I don’t really care about the engine size. Doesn’t matter much on the track. The ‘24 390 has qs up and down, steel braided lines, radial mounted calipers, fully adjustable suspension from the factory. Checks most of the boxes for me not wanting to upgrade it immediately, plus I won’t care as much if I toss it down the track.
Idk about the US but here the warranty is 4 years. And yes, I was also surprised by this
Im sure the R would have been a touch more comfortable over uneven pavement, but I wanted the yellow paint and the chin spoiler, so this dude will abide. Lol
I caught how you mentioned that the brake reservoir was a urine cup 😊
How is this bike with pillion?
Are they still the same price out the door on the road
So is this you regretting the MT09SP?
Def the RS..👍👍👍
Dash on the r looks like an old hornet 600 😂..I would like the old 2014 dash a big tach and blue lights😊
do you think its enough engine for bigger/longer rides? currently i ride a hayabusa, i hurt my back tho so i want to change for a naked bike and these 765 seem like the perfect bike for me, im just not sure about it for the few times i go touring, usually not more than 300 or 400km at a time
Engine absolutely, if anything the lack of windscreen would be the bigger issue, may want to look into aftermarket parts.
As far as the power and parts go, it can handle long commuting without a hitch. You should be able to get 170-200ish miles total too per tank
@@wlt3585 thanks! i might go look at one next week
@@wlt3585 170-200 miles on the updated one with 15L tank? I might get one this year, but the only letdown for me is the tank, many claim it gives a range of 150miles only.
@@kausarayub If you're ripping it alot of the time (which is completely understandable) than yeah 150ish will be what you get, but if you do a fair bit of chilled out riding than 170-180 should be pretty attainable. 200 would be like an unrealistic perfect tank to be honest.
@@wlt3585 makes sense, thanks for the info
The back of the TFT looks like a great place to collect bugs.
Who cares 🤷
You can get the nice OE fly screen.
@@vigilant.the bugs
Get the optional visor...
@@ragerider6283 as soon as you ride above 150kmh you can’t hold your head against the wind. I don’t know what they did there.
The rear tail light, license plate holder looks odd, so do the passenger pegs. Good solid review as usual 😎
2 words~Tail tidy
@@truss6282 right. One of my bikes is a KLX 300 and Tusk (I think) makes what they call a Tail Eliminator Kit. So many bikes have great features but they always seem to have one or two things that stand out in a bad way
I have an evotech tail tidy, euro LED indicators, rear seat delete cowl, and passenger foot peg deletes to make it a dedicated full time single seater and it turns the rear end into a gorgeous wasp stinger
It's just the stinger to complete the bumble bee look, just joking this must be a great bike to own.
I don't know the laws in the US when it comes to turn signals, but street triples in other countries have LED turn signals
Which do you prefer, this or a Monster SP?
Monster SP all day long.
I have a Trident and i look for that vibration at 5500 rpm. I guess im weird because i love how it feels. Almost angry 😆
+10mm spacer in the shocker.
The price premium over the R model is £1700 in the UK which equates to $2140 but they're charging $2600? The spec seems the same. Actually, it's worse because full LEDs come as standard in Europe whereas the US spec bike has crappy halogen bulb turn signals!
Darn it. I really want to not like this bike. Even with its Praying Mantis cranium headlights. But there is too much to like (except for the ridiculously-designed TFT). And at just over 400 pounds. Man. It itself is a moving traffic violation.
Another terrific review (both models), Ian. Thanks for sharing.
🍻
I'll put it this way, it wasn't even on my radar. I was looking at comparable bikes (MT09, Tuono 660 factory) and honestly felt I was going to bring the Yamaha home. I had a friend I trust tell me I was a Triumph guy and didn't even know it, and to at the very least test ride the street triple so I could decide from there. Long story short the STRS was the surprise winner I brought home, it actually is that good.
@@tyranid05 Crap. I didn’t need to hear this. LOL. 🍻
I had a Z H2 SE. I still miss that bike but it was too much. Terrific ride, slow and fast. But far too tempting. It made me a riding hooligan and hypocrite. Didn’t want to wear ear plugs because I always wanted to hear the chirp of the supercharger. But doing so instantly surpassed any posted speed limit and dropped fuel economy into the low twenties. Ouch. Sigh. Bonneville. Twin. Triple. I too think I’m a closeted Triumph guy. 🤣
@@Rebel_Canuck the selling feature for me was that the sum of the components exceeded that of the whole. The Ohlins and Showa forks are brilliant, the Brembo M50s on mine ('22) and the Stylemas on the version being reviewed can stop the earth, but for me the selling factor was if there was any bike that can be described as telepathic in its handling this is it. It does what I want, when I want it, with as much or as little throttle and lean angle as I'm willing to provide. The handling is without a doubt the best of any bike I have ever ridden and that right there is why it came home. The TFT is annoying, but having it in screen two with a 0000 style tach taking up the top half of the screen gets around the issues with the barely legible "wings". I mostly use those for a color indicating shift light lol
@@tyranid05 🍻
I'm sure it's a fun bike to ride but why did it get swallowed by a dragon fly. Nice review.
I've ridden this bike recently. Great chassis, very nice wheelie characteristic, good brakes, good suspension, if a little "throws you out of your seat" over larger bumps. Imo this craps all over the MT09 in any spec... But the engine is a little flat and weak on this. It's nice and revvy, and not slow, but lacks a bit of *je ne sais quoi*... Imo in this category the clear winner is the KTM Duke 890R, same price, much livelier, comfier, even better chassis, same amazing brakes, great suspension for real life roads, and suuupppeerr economic, the 765 is a bit of a chugger despite it's size and output...
KTM reliability ??
@@johnnyboy1586 completely fine
I didn't ride 890r, though judging by all reviews it's a great bike. But KTM and especially this one is horrendously unreliable. Literally all discussions on KTM forum are about how and what break on their bike :D
Some turns out completely fine, but a lot of bikes are constantly breaking down
ST 765rs is the clear winner
I'd get the rs model just for the extra 10 hp.
I slightly beg to differ. An aftermarket exhaust frees up a lot of unsprung weight.
I cannot get over the headlight. Very odd shape and placement. I think it could use a wee bit of fairing to blend in. Also don't care for the screen size, placement, design and the way the wiring harness is twisted. On the plus side, I do like the paint and the motor sound, performance. I think you probably need to be a huge fan boy to spend another 2600. Oh, I also agree with you about exhaust systems.
Agreed. At certain angles those headlights make it look like a big bug. Also agree the design of the TFT is pretty bad. All of that space but the font sizes are like 1 or 2, haha.
The headlight is beautiful, compared to most other bikes with the same boring headlight shape.
Like they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.@@ZabDevin
@@michaelskinner896 Agreed.
Time to test the Ducati Monster?
So how does it perform off-road? Just kidding, this bike looks like a fun way to go from zero to illegal really quick.
I really want this bike, it looks so good. But the TFT layout really feels like such a disappointment, especially considering they put in many modes. There's 0 reason not to put 1 mode with a more normal looking rpm gauge that's easy to read.
What about z900🤔
I can’t decide between this and the Honda CB650R for a non-parallel twin mid capacity bike; the fact that this is lighter and has more power than the Honda is tempting but the Honda has superior looks imo and that sweet inline 4
weird cross-shopping though, cb650r is like grandpa bike compared to this, and I'm not talking about power
GORGEOUS bike but you’d need a new jacket to not look color blind 😂
In this country they only sell the RS, so option.
12:00 lol. So she goes?
You kept referring to the "average" rider. If you ask almost any rider about their skill level they would say they believe they are above average. You should make a video on how to asses your riding level and/or skill, so someone has a method of measurement to honestly asses themselves.
I believe Big Rock Moto misspoke concerning the optional cruise control on this bike. It is available on the R model but NOT on this RS. The Triumph configurator states that cruise is "Suitable for non-DRL bikes only." The RS comes standard with DRL and the R has no DRL. I had an RS on order earlier this year and canceled when my dealer confirmed that cruise was not available.
sorry but you're wrong the Rs can have the optional cruise control but not the R.
The Rs have DRLs. Currently own a 2022 R, and DRLs are stock.
I would love to be wrong about this, but my dealer told me no cruise on the RS after checking with Triumph. Please, someone show me a picture or video of a RS with cruise.
@@mtbiker64 well, your dealer suck sorry. In this video ua-cam.com/video/vIwwdqk6dkk/v-deo.htmlsi=fv348pc_KXPAcbXG
You can see him fitting the switch with cruise control, then he goes to his Triumph dealer who activate the feature (free of charge).
What you can't have in the US is having the light switch, to switch off the low beam and only run the DRL like we can in the EU. Even if you buy a EU switch and fit it to your bike it will not work. I think your dealer is confusing this and the cruise control
