I got my 2018 street triple RS new and it was the best experience, the dealer knows me by name even 2 years later and it's just a awesome feeling. Thanks for the video 👍
Also when you return to change the bike and you have that relationship with the dealer you are likely to get more off your next bike/parts
I always buy new. Everyone told me not to when I got my licence. I got an MT07 fresh from the showroom. Watching it roll off the delivery van outside my house was exciting. I had fun with that for 4 years. 6 months ago I had the pleasure of watching a new Striple get delivered. Awesome 👌
Very good and no doubt when you sold the MT07 you got a fair amount back for it too - that is a popular bike!
Couldn't agree more. Fantastic to KNOW the whole history. Depreciation is next to nothing if you keep it a few years. I also bought Street RS new, but will keep it. Regret selling literally all but one of my previous bikes! Keep safe..
Yep the trade off on depreciation vs what you get out of it I think it is obvious. I would love to keep this bike forever but who knows lets see
Thanks for a great video mate. Really enjoyed it. Definitely agree - new bike is best.
Pretty jealous of you out on your Striple in the lovely English countryside while mine is stuck in the garage for months in this current Sydney lockdown. Will just have to continue to dream of the day when I again experience the freedom of riding my bike that you so rightly treasure. Thanks again for brightening up my day 👍🙂
Glad you enjoyed it!
I bought my 2014 street Triple in 2016 from a triumph dealer here in España. it had 4000 kilometres on it. It looked like new ...50,000 kilometres later it still does. The bike had a few 'goodie' already fitted, flysreen, belly pad, crash bars etc ... I fitted a quick shifter, black anodised brake reservoirs and triumph adjustable brake levers..which personalised it to me...Just love the Street Triple 675
Wow and how is reliability?
@@BikesofRye bike serviced by dealer in Alicante. Timing chain adjust , valves etc, Change engine oil, fork oil and coolant myself. Also changed out the air filter to a K&N oil type..that’s about it. Starts every time and runs perfectly.
You make some very good points for buying new, to date I have always bought used as since passing my full licence 10 years ago wanted to try many different bikes to find out what I like and suits me, many bikes later I now know exactly my kind of bikes, so maybe any future purchases will be new as now confident that will be long term bike that suits me. Cheers mate.
You have buying a new bike to look forward to! It is a great experience
Keep up the good work, really enjoy your channel. From Portland Oregon US
Thank you Adam appreciate the kind words
Brilliant upload! A single piece of PPF wrapped around the Ohlins will protect it, and will keep it looking pristine. (I use 3M Vvivid film on my RS). Keep doing what you do!
I just bought a brand new 2022 Street Triple RS 6 days ago as my second bike. Completely agree going new gives you piece of mind that can't be duplicated. St. Louis Missouri area. I also keep things for a really long time so I don't care about resale values. I bought it to keep it
I bought a brand new striple RS on a 69 plate just traded it for brand new Speed 1050 RS, one of the last in the country. Wow it is better than the Street, which I loved. It's bigger, looks better & the ride is fantastic. Ohlins all round, up & down quickshifter, more torque, cruise control, it's quality.
sounds good to me glad you are enjoying it - the 1050 would have come down I suspect with the release of the 1200 so no doubt you got a great deal too
Yeah I did get a good deal 👍🍻🏍️. Ride safe & look forward to maybe your new bike???
@@robg9379 I'm looking forward to it too 😁
Things I thought in order as watching vid...
Thats a lot of money spent on kit you dont/wont use much. Sell it even second hand people buy it.
Ofc you're filling up the street RS is so thirsty 😂 bcos you cant help but rev it high. Took for a test ride day out from sanderstead to boxhill to white ways and back again had to fill the bike to full twice!
"Little toy" its a pretty big toy, any motorbike is. A little toy is a Lego set.
There is more to cost than just the bike. The higher the value the more the insurance is, loan interest, which are things you cant get back from selling the bike. Thats additional yearly cost on top of the bike. And how about what you get for that cost; the more preciously you treat it. Dont want to get it stolen, scratched, dirty, ragged, rained - you'll get more fun and less stress out of a beater that you use up than a show bike that you preserve.
8.5k for a 2020 street triple is shockingly bad depreciation.
I bought a speed triple 2020 brand new full extras. Pulled cover off. Ran in the engine. Hated it. Gave it back. Love my 2016 speed way more.
Its never too late to put sock/guard covers on if they stay on forever you dont see the scratches underneath
Some great points thanks for sharing
I have the mud guard extension and love it. When I first got the bike, I had mud spray all up my back and the rear half of the bike (steady on ;-) ). Also got chips in the springs coating. With the guard on I get none of that nonsense.
I do agree to a large extent. Some bikes drop a huge amount of value from new (eg my 2017 FireBlade), so used was a far better option. Great video.
I have been looking at some ducatis recently and yes some of them are significantly cheaper than they were new however again they do plateau
I've also always bought new. I think the only time I would consider a used bike is if it where from someone I knew and how the bike was treated. Before I got the 2011 Speed Triple I had a 2009 Suzuki SFV650 "Gladius". Sold it two years later in 2011. The bike was perfect had Rizoma parts on. I had nicknamed it the "Stinger" 😄 Anyway, sold it to a friend for what I had owed on it at the time. Which was cheap money. She crashed it two years later. She's ok. Broke her heart to tell me. New unless you know the bike!
Love to hear all your little stories thanks for sharing
My first bike is an 09 gladius sfv650. I bought it used with 10k miles in summer of 2019 at a Houston TX dealer. It’s got got a little over 20k miles on it and still running strong. I’ve been looking for my second bike which will be either a triumph speed or street triple, tiger 900gt pro or speed twin. I also thought about Yamaha mt09 or tracer 9gt for the reliability and cheaper price but triumph feels like a more premium bike. Too many decisions these days but I guess that’s a good thing.
Yeah buying new is always nice for sure :-) As for that little round key, you may want to look down the bottom of that cavity where the seat hump is, as I found mine down the bottom there. Now taped it on the seat hump.
Good idea to tape it!! I will have a look for it and if I find it I will sell it for a lot of money I suspect haha. Like finding gold
Bikes in the USA hold their value similarly. This exact bike at a dealer by me is $8k with 20,000 miles!, you can get them new for a little over $10k with maybe an extra $1k in fees.
You're allowed to lane filter using the opposite lane in the UK?
Ha Ha 😂 I bought a new Speed Triple earlier this year; and can relate to everything that you said. As my wife would concur 🥴
Great looking bike BTW. Much better finish, than the later matt colours 😉
Nice is it the 1200RS?
The money i save on buying new is what i can use for track days, tires, gear and fuel... First bike was new, which was great to learn what the difference is between perfect and something sounding/feeling funny.. But after that i just go used. Even with crash damage which most won't touch but if the frame is fine and the engine is low miles i'm interesten.
Also i like to spend my spare time in getting it back in order. And having paid not too much, it doesn't hold you back to go full ham. If i crash the financial loss is acceptabele.
It is a very fair point - though re-sale time on a bike with accident damage is difficult to sell and you sell cheap.
Though I get why you would enjoy the journey of repairing a bike to its former glory
I actually am keen on buying a real old school bike and likely will do in the near future especially something 2-stroke!!
@@BikesofRye cr500? Or nsr 500?
I'd agree that buying new is ideal, but you can't beat a used 2022 R with 2500 miles for $8k US from a Triumph dealer. I just couldn't resist!
I bought my bike as a dealer pre-Reg and right now could sell it for what I bought it for having done 2000 miles… that’s a winner
Ah yes I have almost done this in the past - great time to buy a bike is when bike sales are down too usually during the winter
@@BikesofRye or just before the new Reg as lots of people hold off, if you don’t care about the Reg (which I don’t) then you get amazing deals. I’m a serial buyer though 5 new bikes in the last 5 years - I’m constantly running in 😂
Haha I aspire to be just like you! 😁
@@BikesofRye your bank account probably doesn’t…. 😂😂
My bank account says no I say yes
I want one for sure I think it will be a huge upgrade from my street triple 2014 660
Ordered mine last week! Getting it in November, cant wait :DD
Great choice which colour did you spec? I've ordered another bike also waiting until November for mine. Would like it sooner though!!
@@BikesofRye so I ordered one in silver, not a fan of the black Matt finish tbh...
Any hints you can give us on your new bike? 😝
@@acd7655 yes agree not keen on the matte black either. erm new bike is white and red... 😁
I have the ST-R and am bothered by the same problem of rocks and mud being thrown up underneath the bike. Since I don't have the Ohlins in the rear (just a piggy back unit) it doesn't get knackered like yours does. What I have done is put some paint protective film on the underneath of the bike to protect it from stones and muck. Will send you a photo on IG. Thanks for the video and keep them coming!
Got the message on IG thanks for sending that over - the bike is very good and collecting anything on the road and throwing it all over the bike. PPF is the way forward for sure
@@BikesofRye Yes, that’s my IG account. 🙃 Can’t wait for the announcement of the new bike! ☺️
I’m 6 foot and want plenty of room on bike, not cramped up and knees bent too much.
Is stripple big enough??
Totally with you on the buy new, especially if it's a sought after or very popular bike as they don't depreciate much. 10k new or 8.5k for a year old is a no brainer when you see how some people treat their bikes.
That is it exactly - keep in mind that there is a good chance you will get money off the bike new anyhow
I used clear Teckwrap on the shock cylinder and front forks, also I’ve got a R&G shock sock. Worth every Penney
Absolutely - I won't make the same mistakes on future bikes
Completely agree. I feel like a bit of a tart, but brand new vehicles are just special.
Saved over a grand and bought the r. I get the new bike thing as many people are brutal to new engines which, as an engineer, makes me cringe. I raced and did countless track days on the same bike for 3 years on semi synthetic oil with no loss of compression or wear. Just changed the oil and filter regularly.
I’m in the states and I agree 100%
Agree with buying new for Bikes if you can ofcourse, i bought an used r1 once and it was fine the first month then problem after problem thousands spent trying to get it fixed to no avail, ended up just getting rid of it at a loss. I would of saved money if i had bought a new one 🙃
I've had many bikes and cars and love both but I have never bought a new car. I always get a really low mileage secondhand car and save thousands. However nearly all my bikes have been new as I want to know everything that's happened to the bike and you're right they don't lose much money. I currently have 2 bikes. My newest is a 2 year old z1000sx I paid £9000 for and now its worth at least £8000. Btw I'm looking at changing my other bike for a street triple but not sure if I should get the R or RS🤔 BTW good tips at the end.
Yes best to buy a car that's about 2 or 3 year old with 30k on the clock! I'd never buy a car new unless I was really flush with money
Just got my bike from a dealership yesterday. The adjustment key was not there and i showed them this video and they ment this bike don’t get delivered with this key. Didn’t bother to argue more about it. This was in Norway btw.
Great vid, funnily enough I’m pick mine up on Friday. We’re is the screen from?
Congratulations dude 👍🏻
Nice!! You picking up the new colour combo? Fly Screen is a Triumph accessory
I've a bit of riding experience.. can RS be a good one for me?
I would love to be able to buy new but bikes in Australia. A bike depreciates pretty quickly. I can buy a 17 rs for under 13k but new they are 23k. I'll eventually buy a new bike but the 2nd hand market is pretty hard to pass up
Where did you get the fork adjuster from? I've never even seen mine so have no idea what it looks like. It's such a pain to change the fork settings. When I asked my local dealer they said that it doesn't actually exist...
The fork adjuster comes as standard. I was given one by the guy that tuned my bike as that was when I discovered it was missing. Apparently hard to source the key if you lose it
Planning to get one at the end of the year when the dealer gets them in stock. going for the R not the RS, but looking forward to trading my 2014 STR for the new model. What exhaust do you have on your ST ?
It is the full SC project system with S1 straight link slip on
I've got an R in stock if you're interested.
@@wedrick_dc16 it probably depends on where you are located?
@@redm3red OC Costa Mesa we can arrange for shipping to you as well.
@@wedrick_dc16 I appreciate the offer but I have already put my name on the list at the dealer for the new model.
Well it really depends on the depreciation in the local market I suppose, here in India these premium bikes lose 30% off the showroom floor!
I guess it depends on the mileage and the track record of servicing, I bought mine with 14k km and all the service done in the triumph dealer
I believe you can always tell when you go to see a bike second hand and obviously due diligence on checking service history. Most of us really care for our bikes.
I put a deposit on a MT-09 SP August 3rd. The dealer already has some on order...I'm still waiting for it to show up...oh well!
It's like waiting for Christmas day as a little boy
How tall are you would someone 6ft3 be comfy
nice sound
Thanks - full sc project exhaust
Bought a 2020 with 2500km on it for 10 500$ CAD instead of 16 000$ (tax in) with a full year left on the warranty last summer. I got really lucky so fuck buying new in this case 😂
Wow yes very lucky to be honest. I have to ask though what condition was the bike for it to sell so cheap?
Fuel additives are not any better in premium. The manual states regular petrol it will even run on E15
I’m on my 3rd new bike over the last decade, I’m fortunate enough to be able to do that, I completely agree with everything you said and I act the exact same way 🤣🤦♂️
nice what you riding now?
@@BikesofRye Husqvarna Vitpilen 401 mate, lmfao when I think of it because my last bike was a 2015 Ninja 636 and all my mates where scratching there heads when I sold it 4 years later and got what’s technically a Duke 390 , will probably change the Husky next spring but am also contemplating holding onto it because it’s a stunning looking thing IMO and that little KTM motor is a surprise mate I’m not joking,it’s love it or hate it though opinion wise on the looks, I’ll definitely get another bike next spring just have no clue what to get, I do change my mind every fu€king week at the moment.
I thought I lost my fork screw adjuster but I found it lodged near the battery and fuse box you may find your one is there somewhere 🤞
I did hunt around for it but no luck there but thanks for sharing - someone else may read this, check and be lucky
@@BikesofRye Take the seat & cowl off then look forwards through the hole where the cowl sits with a good (small) LED torch. it'll be right up near the tank on the left, betcha. Took three goes to find mine. Hook it out with a wire coat hanger.
The plastic tray keeps all the water spray out, so it must keep any small bits & pieces in.
Nothing like that new bike feeling bro 👌🏻
Did you say you treat your bike better than your girlfriend 😱😱
erm yes I did haha... It's ok I am sure she knows I am joking, sorta.
@@BikesofRye 😂😂😂 missing mine like mad mate. Obviously not rode since we hooked up and can pretty much say this season is over for me now 😭. Saying around October 13th estimated return. Definitely wanna hook up again next year mate 👍🏻
@@adamstratford6740 to be honest I think we have had a poor summer for weather.. I mean the rest of September is cloudy or rain! Sometimes we are lucky and get the odd warm sunny day before the winter really kicks in so even October you might get lucky! But for sure yes will head your way next for a ride even if next year it will come around quickly
@@BikesofRye definitely agree with the weather mate it’s not been the best of years. And 💯 look forward to hooking up again next year we’ll show you some of our roads mate be a blast 👍🏻👍🏻
I've just traded my street triple for the 890 R ow my god it handles like nothing else, the showroom gave me a k off the bike to, its my first new bike hope it works out
Mate I'm struggling to chose between a triple and the 890, what made you switch?? Any regrets? I found the quick shift on the triple smoother than the ktm
@@vireshh1059 I pic the 890 up in 10 days, I doubt I'll regret it, I've owned the triple for a year now, yep the shifter is sweet and so is the engine but the 890 handles better for me, you need to know if you want more of a sports bike naked or supermoto naked that's the way I'd say sums the two bikes up.
For me the agility of the 890 was so noticeable over the triple, if you ride very fast roads and not many tight bends the triple may be for you
Hope my ramblings help
I test rode the 890 R and yes the handling and suspension are incredible for the road. I would say the 890 does handle better however there are so many other things the street does so well that it comes down to the looks and reliability of the two. Also to be honest I wasn't keen on the 890's engine over the Triple
@@BikesofRye I seen your vid, im guessing your new bike isn't a 890 then 🤔
@@thejudge3040 my new bike will be a second bike and nope not an 890 😁
2022 Duke 890r?
I do have an observation: I'd buy the 1st gen 765 for 2 reasons over this gen: the dash (more readable in 1st gen) and flexibility with gearing (you can only go up 2 teeth in the rear before the ecu throws codes). And man, this engine with shorter gearing is just a RIOT
Nothing wrong with the 2017 model over the 2020
What pillion ride like thanks
To be honest it isn't great but you could tolerate it. If it's a regular occurance then you will need to change the rear spring
Wish my R had the digital dash lol
It does look pretty but the rev gauge is awful
@@BikesofRye which part?
@@bella_testastretta it's hard to read the rev counter and it just looks awkward on the screen.
So how many kms do you have on it now?
7000kms
Oh OK, then I agree with you :). I have 9k now on mine which I bought late May. Will likely have around 35k at the end of the next season. So for us with a higher mileage.. Well the amortization is much faster unfortunately.
I don't like the headlight, it looks like a bug, like in the movie "the fly". Hehehe
Bruh its only 10G for the bike here in Indonesia it cost 25Gs 😭😭
Bought my Speed Triple 6 years ago £9000 just traded and got £6000. That’s £500 per year.😉
Well you can do that if you are not broke...
Letchworth?
Might be
Hello Sir 😃
Yes 😎
