TRIUMPH Street Triple

Triumph Street Triple: Overview

The Triumph Street Triple 765 continues its position as a benchmark in the middleweight streetfighter segment. The 2023 model year brought notable updates in styling, hardware, and electronics, making the R and RS variants sharper and more performance-focused than before. With a Moto2-derived engine and upgraded chassis components, the Street Triple range is aimed at riders seeking a blend of track-capable performance and everyday usability. While the global lineup also includes the limited-run Moto2 Edition, Triumph India offers only the R and RS variants.

Triumph Street Triple: Price

In India, the Triumph Street Triple R is priced at ₹10.17 lakh, while the higher-spec Street Triple RS carries a price tag of ₹12.07 lakh, both ex-showroom.

Triumph will be launching the latest Street Triple 1200 RS soon although a launch timeline has not officially been communicated yet.

The RS also gets additional body-coloured parts, including a belly pan and pillion seat cowl.
