TRIUMPH Speed Triple (2013-2014) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2013, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Speed Triple, a naked machine that benefited from earlier technical, visual, and performance modifications, enhancing its overall capabilities.

The Triumph Speed Triple was first released in 1994, with the Hinckley Triumph being one of the first motorcycles in a streetfighter style without an aerodynamic plastic fairing. Over its production years, the bike underwent many modifications, evolving into an aggressive-looking, well-handling, and powerful machine.

The 2013 bike packed standard features, such as a twin headlight system, a fly screen, a one-piece dual seat, a dual exhaust system mounted high under the seat, a single-sided swingarm, and 10-spoke lightweight wheels.

The machine was built around a lightweight aluminum twin-spar frame with a 43 mm upside-down Showa telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable Showa shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent handling.

The bike's wheels were fitted with two 320 mm discs tied to four-piston calipers on the front and a 255 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering excellent stopping power.

As for the power figures, the 2013 Triumph Speed Triple had installed underneath its fuel tank a 1,050cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine managed by an electronically controlled fuel injection system, delivering 136 hp at 9,400 rpm and 111 Nm (82 lb-ft) torque at 7,750 rpm.
