Just bought a 2019 New Speed Triple S . Absolutely in love with it. And honeslty if you're just doing mostly street riding go for the S. Way more than what you need. This is by far the best motorcycle ever had and I've been riding for 16 years and owned 8 motorcycles.
Great review ... bought my 2018 RS as ex-demo with heated grips and quickshifter fitted .... it’s as brilliant bimbling around town to work and home as it was blasting to Assen for the BSB in September .... enough poke to be great fun , cruise control for the long straight bits, comfy all day 👍🏻 love it !
Great job Chopsie. Thanks for getting round to doing a test ride on her. I agree with you on the decals. I've got the 2018 RS in White and it's a much classier finish. Loved the way you got the Arrows singing. I had a funny feeling you were gonna enjoy it. Best purchase I've ever made. Cheers from Melbourne 👍
Great channel ! After trying the Z H2, KTM SDR, Streetfighter V4S, Monster 1200S, Tuono and S1000R. I yesterday bought a Speed Triple RS 2020 ! Absolutly LOVED IT ! Ok, it dosen’t have the speed as some of the others, dosen’t have the exotic feel of the V4S. But none of that changed my mind. The speed Triple is just so f#cking good !!
I own a 2016 triple R with arrows and quick shifter, I’ve been waiting for you to test one to hear your thoughts, I’m pleased you were impressed Chops , as I love mine , great all rounder 👌
That color scheme is just right and that shifter sounds like it worked perfect with all the great bikes out there it is very hard to choose one I guess that's why you make these videos very nice bike
I love my black 2017 Speed Triple S. I couldn’t imagine trading it in for any other bike right now. I’m thankful it doesn’t have yellow on it though lol.
This review clinches it. I was going to go get a leftover Aprilia Tuono 1100RR to replace my crashed Street Triple 765R (RIP) but I'm getting the Speed RS instead. That exhaust is awesome. Great review!
You aint heard many bikes. My 20 year old aprilia v twin sounds better than this. This is fuck all fot alot of money. A hyabusa or zzr 1400 wouldbpiss all over this and they are old this is supposed to be brand new. Looks plastic and cheap.
Thanks for the review Chop’s, glad you like it. Pretty great all rounder. Shame roads were wet and you didn’t get to warm them Sp’s up. Chassis is so well sorted with the bling 👌
Such an awesome machine. My first bike was a 2013 Speed Triple that I enjoyed thoroughly. My next bike most likely will be the new Street Triple, but the Speedie will always hold a special place in my heart.
Absolutely love the sound of the speed triple.. It sounds amazing with the Arrow cans! I've been looking at the Suzuki gsx1000r and Honda cb1000r, but they don't really excite me as much as this bike does..
Love my GSA but this is the dream other bike in the garage. Had a base model for a day, what a fun bike and the triple sound is addictive. The closest I got was a Sprint 1050 in 2007, lovely triple engine too but different style.
No I have the 2018 triumph speed triple RS, it first came out in 2018, the current addition. The price of fitting QS was $120 AU dollars which wont mean anything to you if your not in OZ. You seam a bit touchy 🙄
Excellent video again Chops. It's a Triumph mate, wonderful machines. I've got its little brother the Street Triple, i'm having a ball. Keep 'em coming Chops.
Last S3 i'd consider is the last of the longer wheelbase, less flighty, 955 type framed 1050's, round headlights, heavier crank, no electronics, etc, the 2008-2010 models. Best S3 made.
Finally a review on the '20 Speed that I wanted to see. I see what you mean on the matte; like it or leave it and the yellow/green. I love both, might have to check on one. Just keep hearing rumors on a 1160.....
Ordered one of these today, after losing my Tuono in a no fault accident. Was after something a touch more practical and not so focused on track performance. The speed has that in spades, was exactly what I was after after a few years on the tuono.
Got one in 2018, quickshifter is a must, got heated grips as well. Just love the tone out of those pipes and the engine is just as happy doddling about in town as it is ripping it up. Regret getting the matt black it’s a pain. Also ditched the tyres right away for michelin road 5’s which transformed it into a all year round bike. Brilliant tyres...
@@jeffreymees7112 I am actually in the process of trading in maybe for the Streetfighter V4S or the 2022 Superduke. I find the suspension brutal and I have honestly got fed up of it. Its 3 years old now and the matt is still looking great. You just need to take care of it a little more.
@@newkurosawa Right, that's interesting to know, did you try and have the suspension tweaked or anything? You also looking for a bit more oomph? Since you're looking at the top two hyper nakeds. Also don't happen to live in Australia do ya? :P
Great review as always Mr LCR. I owned two Speed Triples 2009 and 2013 and really enjoyed the smoothness of the throttle response and the grunt although the newer one is just amazing with the gizmos and that fabulous sound. Should I get another one? The wife just said NO...oh well.
I believe the M40s and some other things were kept because this speed triple is just filling a gap between old speed triple and the new one, which might be out soon, with the new bored out engine..
I've watched this video about a 100 times not even kidding. I love this bike it will be mine someday. but Bill's responsibilities and children make thi gs a little more difficult lol. But I'm definitely saving
I’m thinking this bike does ride amazing and it’s all top notch stuff on there but I like the looks of the Street much more than the looks of the Speed. Nice review, Chops! 👑 All gold ‘stuff’ these days is much like all things that said TURBO in the 90’s 😁👍 It must be good 💰 Let’s hope Triumph doesn’t become too expensive ‘cause GB has left the EU...
Finally ! pulled the trigger on this one ...gagging to ride.... ex pat(paddy) in Vegas ! proper mileage to come. Cali to left ! Arizona to the right. Grand canyon/zion above! planned pikes peak, Sierras, and weather! Track days local! grrrrr! git it ye aul geezer.
Being the owner of a Ducati V4s and Triumph speed triple RS, I can say that both bikes are a lot of fun and have a purpose. I will also say, if one takes the 1200 RS out to a track or just drives it daily without a full titanium exhaust and k&n air filter, they are robbing themselves. The 1200 RS gains so much low end power and torque with addition of the lighter, freer flowing exhaust, and the freer breathing air filter. I’m an American boy and so I don’t have to deal with all the euro5 bullshit but I lived in Berlin for long enough to know there are exhaust systems that can be run over there. I run the full header to muffler tip racefit titanium system and it saves so much weight, gains a ton of torque and hp. The air filter was the uppercut to system. For less than a $1k US dollars for the exhaust, air filter,and ecu flash I managed to totally remake the low end, mid, and high. Are you suddenly going to have a v4s under the hood? Uh, no! But that 1200 will run like a raped ape.
This model is way overdue for a refresh. It's engine won't cut it for euro 5 emissions in 2021 so they will have to come with an update for next year. They are just selling the current version to get rid of the inventory they still got. Also explains why they didn't update the M40 brakes, no led headlight update like on the street etc. In essence the speed has not changed much in 10 years (engine/chassis), so a big update must be coming. Bennetts bike had an article that Triumph was working on a 1160cc Speed Triple. Will be interesting to see what they will come with.
Entertainment with substance, thanks 007. From Shakespeare’s philosophers to modern day satirists, the clown has always been used to deliver wise commentary with humour, requiring the greatest of skill. You sir, are the bike riding, wheelie throwing clown of motorcycle vloggers.
i had the 2016 and it was flawless. i just hope they stop reducing dimension. the best thing this bike had going for itself in the late 90's was, it LOOKED like a beast. keep the esthetics modifications to a minimum triumph.
Took a demo bikr speed triple rs out at the NEC show last year, conditions were shocking and was kinda regretting choosing it when I seen it has supercorsas in it, the roads were brown with salt, temprature was about 2 degrees, then I rode it, tottaly confidence inspiring in the worst weather was a nice surprise, felt super polished, quickshifter and blipper was beautifully smooth, this bike was the bike I wish the previous model was when I was ready to buy one, previous model was just missing a bit of thrill, the new one stressed this, ended up buying an mt10, only thing that puts me off is the small tank, think they missed a trick there, especially when the smaller street triple has a bigger tank, won't annoy everyone but is one of the only reasons would put me off buying one
@@Miata822 🤣😂🤣 she said something about turning the garage into a summer house so only 2 bikes would fit 😁😁 sounds like the triumph's a go But only the 2 bikes 😂🤣😂
Yet another great review, How would you say the GSXS1000 2022 comparison to the 2020 Triumph...very interest to know your thoughts, as I am getting or could be getting the Gsxs depending on your thoughts lol
Excellent review, LCR! I test rode the 2020 Street RS and loved it. With TTC on, it still popped the front in 3rd with a clutch up. I wasn't game to disengage it. I ride a '16 Tiger Sport and like it a lot (apart from its obvious top heavy centre mass). Loads of power and torque. Would very much like to throw a leg over the Speed. The engine is the same, though the Speed has higher figures all round (engine), and is lower and lighter, and with the RS it has a better suspension and brakes package. Wish my TS sounded like that Speedie! I think it's time to trade in the Tiger for something a little more hooligan-ised!
I really do think the Speed Triple is possibly one of the best road bikes available, I'd have one in a snap had I not heard a rumour regarding the Euro 5 version. Them Ultimate Addons phone cases are really neat. You had any issues? My pet peeve with Triumph though is the IMO awful nasty fluro decals... and I am utterly over matt paint having had a matt black V7.... but fluro stickers are tacky.... as bad as fake carbon. Bring back the amazing paint that was available back in the noughties! Come on Triumph, stop giving us stickers, give us paint options like we get with cars, it was your USP over all the other manufacturers back in the day! :-)
always nice to see a new bike chops but i just am not a fan of the digital dashes at all. if its a hybrid, sure! but not a full digital dash... also, rain is still ride worthy at least but not no foot of snow lol! but i think we both know if you want to be covered for most riding seasons then you are going to have to fork over the cash for those bells and whistles. Sounds great and plenty of get up and giggle juice.
How have you mounted the 360 camera? I've tried tank mounting my GoPro with extension arms but it wobbles a lot and falls off and the plastic extension arms break. And as a professional reviewer who speeds and does wheelies have you ever been caught by the police? I got caught doing a wheelie a while back and threatened with fines, points ect ect which took a lot of the fun out of riding for me. Anyway, back to the bike, I'd love one of these but even with all the extra features it's hard to justify £13,600 over the £3500 second hand MT-07 I currently have.
Great review as I’ve got the first generation 1050 and obviously the bike is massively improved from mine but I just can’t get my head around the looks.
Lovely bike & great review as usual Mr. Chops. Personally I absolutely adore the Speed Triple's matte black / yellow livery, it just looks so awesome. Any plans on getting hold of the 390 Adventure mate? I'm curious to know what you make of it.
Best make the most of these splendid machines, being as Boris has just brought forward their demise by 5 years I can't see many manufacturers spending much on developing new models with the market being killed off in 15 years.
Shame you didn’t get he dry roads, still great review. So Would you have an MT10 Or Speed Triple ? Also are you waiting for the back to back before deciding on Street Vs Speed ? Thanks
I am still riding an "antique" 2001 955i Speed Triple. No traction control (I have to actually know how to ride)120hp on a 416lb bike. I paid Race Tech to upgrade the forks with HD springs and their magic gold valves which give you the feel of upside down forks. Put a 18" single can under the seat (remapped her via ECU for smooth acceleration from dead start). I am starting to shop for a 2012-13 with ABS and those special PVM mag wheels. I hate anti-wheelie, why have it? Traction control yes. Brembo, yes. Ohlins, sure.
I’m really curious why every bike made nowadays doesn’t have across-the-board LED headlights?? I want all the visibility I can get, but so many bikes are still going half halogen and half LED.
The Triumph 1050 Triple, the kind of engine you can love and hate at the same time. Gets the job superbly done BUT it's a DAMN DINOSAUR (NO, I don't care what Triumph calls it or what they changed, that DOES NOT makes it new).
id love a tuono after my 3 street triples and 1 daytona but i fell like my license would go bye bye so this is really looking like the next step soon enough
Great bike , love the speed triple but like you said the colours this year are very poor , what happened to all the crazy greens and pink (nuclear red) and yellow of speeds past !
Just bought a 2019 New Speed Triple S . Absolutely in love with it. And honeslty if you're just doing mostly street riding go for the S. Way more than what you need. This is by far the best motorcycle ever had and I've been riding for 16 years and owned 8 motorcycles.

When that Triple comes on Cam, God's Nob switches as he looks down and says "Yeesss"
Brilliant review. I bought mine off the back of this video and I absolutely love it. Turns heads wherever it goes.
That color scheme is just right and that shifter sounds like it worked perfect with all the great bikes out there it is very hard to choose one I guess that's why you make these videos very nice bike
I love my black 2017 Speed Triple S. I couldn’t imagine trading it in for any other bike right now. I’m thankful it doesn’t have yellow on it though lol.
The best,most underrated, motor Triumph has made !! Love the sound !!
Underrated?
It’s on my lift at Triumph Cleveland in the States.
When the mechanic buys the bike…
Thanks from the states.

Great job at conveying the sound. Sounds amazing.
Hell yeah, did order my brand new speedy 1050 RS four days ago. Love it and it is a just amazing bike. 👍
Thanks for the review Chop’s, glad you like it. Pretty great all rounder. Shame roads were wet and you didn’t get to warm them Sp’s up. Chassis is so well sorted with the bling 👌
I love my 2019 street triple r but this thing seems even better
Same here, first big bike is a 15 triple R and I love it.... So the only thing I'd change it for is a speed....
It's raining, the road is wet, turns the traction control off and does wheelies 😂👍
I've owned 2 Speed Triples 2014 and a 15, this is defiantly the next bike I buy, those cans and that motor sound so so sweet!!!!
Such an awesome machine. My first bike was a 2013 Speed Triple that I enjoyed thoroughly. My next bike most likely will be the new Street Triple, but the Speedie will always hold a special place in my heart.

Awesome choice. I'm looking at the baby brother (Street Triple RS) to replace my SV 650
Not ridden the street but I’m sure it would be an awesome ride, Have owned an sv650s back in 2004, I’m sure you won’t be disappointed, go for it 👍🏻
U mean u have the R model with gold forks ?!! This with black forks looks crap
How much is the quick shifter !!?to get fitted ??

Great review. Must agree about the graphics they cheapen the whole thing. The first rs in white was the best colour / graphic combo imo.
Love my 2020 speed got the dealer to throw in a quickshifter as like you say it should be on it already. Great video and that sound awesome 👏👍

I got caught doing a wheelie a while back and threatened with fines, points ect ect which took a lot of the fun out of riding for me. Anyway, back to the bike, I'd love one of these but even with all the extra features it's hard to justify £13,600 over the £3500 second hand MT-07 I currently have.
Great review as I’ve got the first generation 1050 and obviously the bike is massively improved from mine but I just can’t get my head around the looks.
Lovely bike & great review as usual Mr. Chops.
Personally I absolutely adore the Speed Triple's matte black / yellow livery, it just looks so awesome.
Any plans on getting hold of the 390 Adventure mate? I'm curious to know what you make of it.
Great video fantastic bike 🇬🇧👍
I might have to investigate this option.
Best make the most of these splendid machines, being as Boris has just brought forward their demise by 5 years I can't see many manufacturers spending much on developing new models with the market being killed off in 15 years.
bikes are not included for now
13:12 nice and quick weely
Shame you didn’t get he dry roads, still great review. So Would you have an MT10 Or Speed Triple ?
Also are you waiting for the back to back before deciding on Street Vs Speed ?
Thanks
Think I would go Speed RS for the nicer finish and super smooth engine. Yes Street & Speed comparison to follow when it is dry haha 👍👍
Wheelie good video Chops...... ;) I still need to get my cheeks on one of these things.
Great video
In two years I've bought 2 new bikes..... but now I fancy a go on this, what ever triumph pay you it's not enough chops lol.
I am still riding an "antique" 2001 955i Speed Triple. No traction control (I have to actually know how to ride)120hp on a 416lb bike. I paid Race Tech to upgrade the forks with HD springs and their magic gold valves which give you the feel of upside down forks. Put a 18" single can under the seat (remapped her via ECU for smooth acceleration from dead start). I am starting to shop for a 2012-13 with ABS and those special PVM mag wheels. I hate anti-wheelie, why have it? Traction control yes. Brembo, yes. Ohlins, sure.
I’m really curious why every bike made nowadays doesn’t have across-the-board LED headlights?? I want all the visibility I can get, but so many bikes are still going half halogen and half LED.
Brilliant chops 👌 love it . is it better than my mt10 thanks from Danny
The Triumph 1050 Triple, the kind of engine you can love and hate at the same time.
Gets the job superbly done BUT it's a DAMN DINOSAUR (NO, I don't care what Triumph calls it or what they changed, that DOES NOT makes it new).
id love a tuono after my 3 street triples and 1 daytona but i fell like my license would go bye bye so this is really looking like the next step soon enough
great video!!!
Great bike , love the speed triple but like you said the colours this year are very poor , what happened to all the crazy greens and pink (nuclear red) and yellow of speeds past !
I have a plain black 2016 model much nicer than the naff yellow bits of this model
I want one, NOW!
