How reliable are triumphs typically? I’ve always wanted to get a street triple but I’m so hysterically cheap that I’m too afraid to buy anything other than Japanese bikes lol
Triumph simp here, you will love the bike the speed and street triple handle beautifully for a nakedbike/ streetfighter. The bikes are really flickable until 60 mph and get really planted above 60 to handle fast and long corners💪🏼
As a fellow 08 Speed Triple owner, the headlights make the bike. Regardless of whether or not you keep or flip it, enjoy riding it. I've put almost 40k miles on mine and am thinking about buying another
I got two IVs in rn at the emergency room. Got a infection from a long term battle im fighting. Your content and others keeps me fighting and alive, it’s hard to sit here and think I’m gonna be here for this long. But with the vids times flying by 😁
man they all are sick. i was looking at streetys before my 07 1050 but i rode the 1050 and was like nah ill take the old dog. but regardless 1050's, 675's and 765's are all just badass motors
I have had an R6, Superduke, a Panigale V2 that I still have, and a Vitpilen 401 I still have. My speed triple 1200 RR I ride is the best bike I have ever had by far!
Headlights are the best part of it. It's iconic look like 911 Porsche. With any other headlight it looks like any other crashed and fairing removed bike. The twin light look is actually a style they did to diy streetfigters in england during 90's.
I have the last year of the lights! 2010 John Bloor edition. It will never leave my stable. Did powder-coat them black. Took all the chrome and silver off! Love it!
Sweet bike! I considered that bike at one point. I was looking at putting a V-Rod headlight on it and clip ons. Can’t beat the price and quality for what you got into it.
This bike is awesome. I had like 20 bikes s1000rr, ducati v4, rsv4, etc etc. For some reason the speed 1050 is always my “most fun to the dollar” bike to go to. I had 3 already, building my fourth now lol
Fantastic bikes. I have had 3 speed triples. On a 2022 1200rs. The headlights are controversial. I never understood people talking about the headlights while riding a Yamaha MT.
Myself I took a break for about 14 years. I decided about 14 years ago to get another bike, I bought a triple 955i what a bike that was. Now I've got a triple what I bought from new in 17, A 1050s unbelievable that bike is. I love triumph always have done past and present.
Hv a 2012 Speed Triple. It’s an addictive brand. The torque from the 3-cylinder engine is SWEET! Near perfect on the street. U might end up keeping it.
I got an 02 triumph speed four and at first I saw the speed triples and hated the look of the headlight but then I got my speed four and I fell in love with triumph and the dual headlight. It’s an absolute dream to ride! And I now think the dual headlights are bad ass
For as hard as your simping on my bike, Im a lil bummed that you can’t appreciate the classic bug eyed head lights. My 06 has two big LED array replacements that look stock until I hit the brights then they blind oncoming semis w the brightest beams you can imagine. Seriously Ive never driven a cage w brighter headlights. Its super confidence inspiring when riding at night. I might buy other bikes in my life but Ill never sell my Speedy.
Oh man. Great choice. I feel like the speed triple isn’t on anyone’s radar until they ride one. I have a 2013 Speed Triple R and it’s the best handling bike I’ve ever owned. I did ditch the headlight for the motodemic single headlight unit and it’s a fantastic bit of kit.
Yeeeeaaaahh Boooooii!! I’m stoked cuz I have an SLR Tuned Street Triple R with an SC Project S1 slip on. She’s a howling beast in the East TN twisties. I watch your channel and want to upgrade to an Aprilia but I just can’t justify getting rid of my ST3. Reliable and so much fun.
Super nice bike! I was looking at this bike but an 08 four weeks back, test rode and everything, but settled in on buying an Ducati streetfighter 848 instead.
Listen. Glad you’ve discovered the Speedie and how wonderful it is. We’re not letting u in the fan club tho until u drop all that hate on the gorgeous headlights
I bought a 06 speed triple low miles for 4G. It has the Arrow lowboy, sergeant seat, racetech suspension, aftermarket stator, and aftermarket handle bar. I don’t know of any other bike that you can get so much bang for your buck. Not a single scratch on the thing and rides like a dream. My friends all love riding it and there bikes cost 2 -3 times as much. There’s something special about the 1050.
I personally don't like triumph but I feel I'm allowed to because I'm british and these are everywhere over here. For me its italian or german, austrian bikes all the way. Just my opinion tho - dont mean to hate - ride what you want and enjoy it!👍
Recently looking for one of these from 09 or 10? I actually think it’s the same bike I was looking at on line. 😅. The bug lights are its greatest feature IMO!!
Got a 2006 17k miles black gold, w shorty fire shooter. I love it, tho I love 200mph bike cause cruise 100 commute is a must this is the only naked I love.
*removes db killer before starting the bike for the first time* me: This dude has to had owned a GSX-R at some point in his life, no way he missed on that. 5 min later he says he has owned a many GSX-Rs as well as other bikes me: *grin*
I can’t understand why people don’t like it. Especially up close. It’s a freaking hunk of metal classic bullet/teardrop shape etc. beats the transformer look
@@Fee.1've always wanted one they look awesome. I don't know why people hate on that twin headlight.. I had a Yamaha TRX 850 with them headlights looked awesome.
Bro. Question How the rear break do you have strong rear break? let me know because my 2009 speed triple has not really gives me a good rear break even I already replaced new break pads. thanks let me know so I have idea that there is something wrong with my rear break. Thanks.
My dad had a 2006 speed. He sold it within a few months tho. He and I much prefer the benelli tornado triple over these. I don't think you guys have them over there in the states but I think they are the best looking sports bikes ever made!
This is like saying that the round headlights on older Porsche 911s are "ugly"... I have a Speed Triple 2011 Special Edition and they are the highlight of the bike!
Everything you said about the handling of this bike, literally everybody has said (this isn't me being rude) my point is that the handling of the triumph is it's unique selling point. Any time someone says triumph the next few words are nimble and handles soo well. And your mini review further extends this for 3 reasons. 1 you bought it with your own money and it's not brand new. And 2 you've never been the one to blow smoke up manufacturers butt's. And 3rd You're from the U.S soo you're not being patriotic. (im aware that this bike isn't mostly manufactured in the UK. I believe it's done in Thailand and Brazil also. So thanks Adobo
@@lycanitmy tail light kit is kinda similar. But much smaller. In retrospect it’s useless most likely. I always wonder how anyone is expected to see it. Makes me wonder why there’s so much hate for the stock units
I have got a 07 speed triple and it is incredible machine. Please dont mess with the headlights. get your self a visor or shades for it and it will look even better
I know, it makes no sense arguing about what is pretty. But man, do I love this bike with the sound, the frame and those ugly ass lights?! For me it's a full package! 😁😎 Enjoy it, drive safe!
Triumph riders unite! I’ve got a 08 Street Triple and I absolutely love it! (Yeah the headlights aren’t that great haha) hope you enjoy it!
Daytona 675 🙋🤝
😊
2012 Daytona 675 here 😁
How reliable are triumphs typically? I’ve always wanted to get a street triple but I’m so hysterically cheap that I’m too afraid to buy anything other than Japanese bikes lol
Triumph is very hard to hate. One of my dream bikes is a Thruxton 🤤🤤🤤

Before i bought my 05 i wanted to change the headlights to a single one.. but now i absolutely love them and wouldnt change them for anything.
I totally agree!!! Those headlights are one of a kind 🙏
Yep....change the lights...etc....kill the character.....make it like every boring Japanese bike......get a life......
I put eagle lights on mine. They look way cooler than the dull yellowish stock ones.
I got two IVs in rn at the emergency room. Got a infection from a long term battle im fighting. Your content and others keeps me fighting and alive, it’s hard to sit here and think I’m gonna be here for this long. But with the vids times flying by 😁
Absolutely love the headlights, for me it's a reason to buy 😅 I own a 765 RS so I'm fairly biased though.
This guy knows the truth
man they all are sick. i was looking at streetys before my 07 1050 but i rode the 1050 and was like nah ill take the old dog. but regardless 1050's, 675's and 765's are all just badass motors
Love the round headlights
I own a speed triple and love it. It's quick and fun. Always liked the naked bikes and café racer style.
i hated those headlights too when i first saw them, but they have somehow since grown on me and now i genuinly quite like them
they really do grow on you
I have had an R6, Superduke, a Panigale V2 that I still have, and a Vitpilen 401 I still have. My speed triple 1200 RR I ride is the best bike I have ever had by far!
Its about time you got a good bike
Headlights are the best part of it. It's iconic look like 911 Porsche. With any other headlight it looks like any other crashed and fairing removed bike. The twin light look is actually a style they did to diy streetfigters in england during 90's.
That beast is a keeper your love will triple once u track it
2005 1050 is being delivered on the 3rd of June...can not wait 🎉...awesome video......keep up the good work fella! ✌🏻
I have the last year of the lights! 2010 John Bloor edition. It will never leave my stable. Did powder-coat them black. Took all the chrome and silver off! Love it!

Heck ya man! I’ve got a Triumph Speed Four and I absolutely love it. I’m a big fan of the dual headlights!
2022 speed triple guy here! Excited for the content
This is a gorgeous bike. Don’t destroyed it.
Love the headlights, love them. I have a black and gold 2012 STR. Best bike I’ve ever owned. Triumph rocks.
This bike is awesome. I had like 20 bikes s1000rr, ducati v4, rsv4, etc etc. For some reason the speed 1050 is always my “most fun to the dollar” bike to go to. I had 3 already, building my fourth now lol
Love the rounds. Almost a vintage look.
Fantastic bikes. I have had 3 speed triples. On a 2022 1200rs.
The headlights are controversial. I never understood people talking about the headlights while riding a Yamaha MT.
I’ve been wanting to pull the trigger on a 23 1200RS but I’ve heard nightmares on electrical issues. How has yours been?
Love the sound of this tripple.
I had a 2011 Triple 1050. That was the first year of the chassis package. Loved that bike.
Nice genuine review, thanks. I'm looking at a 2009 Striple as a 2nd bike. Your a trusting dude- lucky buddy didn't ride off with your bike!
I just sold my 2017 Tuono for the 2009 Speed Triple. Best decision ever!
Myself I took a break for about 14 years. I decided about 14 years ago to get another bike, I bought a triple 955i what a bike that was. Now I've got a triple what I bought from new in 17, A
1050s unbelievable that bike is. I love triumph always have done past and present.
I really love watching your videos .. especially on facebook also .. God bless you sir
I was in high school when the MI2 movie came out.... Since then I've always loved those headlights.
As the owner of a moto with a triple in the NW. Welcome... It's a blast.
If I ever hear this cat say "Bro" or "Dewd" again I'm gonna hurl. And that giggle. Why not just not talk and let us listen to the bike. Sheesh.....
Nah those headlights are beautiful
Welcome to the Triumph club , have a sprint 1050 , same bike just fully faired , love it
Cant believe my tiktok comment made you buy a new bike xD Glad you picked one up! I have a 23 so Im interested to watch the video! Hope u like it haha
Hv a 2012 Speed Triple. It’s an addictive brand. The torque from the 3-cylinder engine is SWEET! Near perfect on the street. U might end up keeping it.
Good morning my pinoy brother. Lights look awesome. I have the exact same setup on my 2018 R6 here in Dagupan City.
Enjoy your bike.
I got an 02 triumph speed four and at first I saw the speed triples and hated the look of the headlight but then I got my speed four and I fell in love with triumph and the dual headlight. It’s an absolute dream to ride! And I now think the dual headlights are bad ass
Sweet, i love triumph bikes. I have a 2012 speed triple with a dnk flash. The bike was great but with the flash.......she a beast now.
Watchin from Ph. I love this bike i like the 2 round headlights.
1050s fuck i love mine. it was sick buying a used bike that old and pristine. old heads took care of them
Daily an '06 around Chicago with 70k miles. Thing still rips.
i love these headlights
For as hard as your simping on my bike, Im a lil bummed that you can’t appreciate the classic bug eyed head lights.

Love the lights
Yesss get a 660! I Approve I just got mine a couple months ago I love mine
Oh man. Great choice. I feel like the speed triple isn’t on anyone’s radar until they ride one. I have a 2013 Speed Triple R and it’s the best handling bike I’ve ever owned. I did ditch the headlight for the motodemic single headlight unit and it’s a fantastic bit of kit.

@Sendmessage-2, get the hell outta here with your spam BS.
Super nice bike!
I was looking at this bike but an 08 four weeks back, test rode and everything, but settled in on buying an Ducati streetfighter 848 instead.
I love the speed triples! I would like to get the 1200rr!
Agreed but I'd have to swap the clip-ons for a handlebar😂😂😂
The lighrs were one of the best features on the early speed triples i love them its the og street fighter
Love the looks. I'm in between the superduke 990 and this one... but looks wise, this is the one. Old school look, I mean
Still one of the best handling bikes I've owned! Sticky rubber a few tweaks and take it to the track great fun dude
When i read your youtube channel name i subscribed right away, I studied in Davao, Philippines bro. Love from India ✌
I've got a '16 Thruxton R. Love it!
beautiful bike, love it.
have a 675 myself, love it to death
Welcome to the club.
22 street triple rs
12 daytona 675r
I've got the 2009 JB addition. The lights are the best 🙂
2011 speed tripple is one of my dream bikes
That bike and the Thruxton RS are two bike I would love to own.
Listen. Glad you’ve discovered the Speedie and how wonderful it is. We’re not letting u in the fan club tho until u drop all that hate on the gorgeous headlights
What headlights are you thinking of getting? I just bought one and thinking of going with some sweet LEDs.
I bought a 06 speed triple low miles for 4G. It has the Arrow lowboy, sergeant seat, racetech suspension, aftermarket stator, and aftermarket handle bar. I don’t know of any other bike that you can get so much bang for your buck. Not a single scratch on the thing and rides like a dream.

I started Diggin em when I rode t595/Daytona!
Got a 2006 17k miles black gold, w shorty fire shooter. I love it, tho I love 200mph bike cause cruise 100 commute is a must this is the only naked I love.
The headlights make the front look like gonzo 😂
They looked hella good on the xb12s
*removes db killer before starting the bike for the first time*
me: This dude has to had owned a GSX-R at some point in his life, no way he missed on that.
5 min later he says he has owned a many GSX-Rs as well as other bikes
me: *grin*
Always wanted one of those
Agreed, a uniboob headlight would look a lot better 😂
Craaazy good deal on the bike, can't wait to see more content with it
I can’t understand why people don’t like it. Especially up close. It’s a freaking hunk of metal classic bullet/teardrop shape etc. beats the transformer look
@@Fee.1've always wanted one they look awesome.

Another thing I look for is, if they have a stock fender on their bike, good chances they follow traffic laws and probably never beat the bike up.
So what’s your thoughts on the latest generation of Street/Speed Triples?!
My dad had a 2006 speed. He sold it within a few months tho. He and I much prefer the benelli tornado triple over these. I don't think you guys have them over there in the states but I think they are the best looking sports bikes ever made!
We used to get a few bigger Benelli's in the USA. The importer always seemed to have issues.
Your a brave dude, I let a guy take a pic on my bike once but it was not turned on. He could’ve through that thing in first & been gone…Lmao
Just for fun go and try the new speed triple 1200 rs!
Jeezus what are those large gauges out of the roads you're riding on (5:00)? We have potholes here in New Zealand but those look downright dangerous.
Googly eyes 👀
You ever have any of the z series, basically what u got rn but kawasaki
I haven’t watched the video but take it back now!!!
Had a 2012 speed triple....they're a fckng great bike...take one for a spin
This is like saying that the round headlights on older Porsche 911s are "ugly"... I have a Speed Triple 2011 Special Edition and they are the highlight of the bike!

(im aware that this bike isn't mostly manufactured in the UK.
I believe it's done in Thailand and Brazil also.
So thanks Adobo
Welcome to the club. Try a flyscreen and coat them black. It will transform the look.
What rear spring and fork spring is it resprung with ?
I'm curious what you would feel about the 1200 speed triple?
Does Triumph not make a single headlight assembly?
Could you swap it out?
That tail light looks dangerous
I’m guessing it’s not legal.
@@lycanitmy tail light kit is kinda similar. But much smaller. In retrospect it’s useless most likely. I always wonder how anyone is expected to see it.
Makes me wonder why there’s so much hate for the stock units
I love your videos. I learned a lot of things from you but, sandals with socks? Come on... Don't do it!😂
Nice! Finally you get a real bike
@Sendmessage-2 great! Send it to my house
I have got a 07 speed triple and it is incredible machine. Please dont mess with the headlights. get your self a visor or shades for it and it will look even better
I've got a 22 Speed Tripple RR
And a 22 Tiger Sport 660
Triumphs are top tier
I know, it makes no sense arguing about what is pretty. But man, do I love this bike with the sound, the frame and those ugly ass lights?! For me it's a full package! 😁😎
Enjoy it, drive safe!
Motodemic has your single light conversion for your speed triple.
15:10 look at this no parking at anytime sign lol
I love the twin headlights on mine. Some people just have bad taste
Just needs the headlight cowl/wind screen then it some what makes it look tough lol👍🏽
Well, latest gen looks so fucking good
triumph simp here , i got street triple rs 2021. nothing to envy to japanese bikes
I've stopped caring about my tank 😂
