The Triumph Street Triple R was a naked motorcycle with a streetfighter style made by Triumph Motorcycles Ltd in 2008. Compared to the base model, the R version featured a fully adjustable suspension package, better brakes, and a unique visual appearance that set it apart from other Triple models.

In 2017, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Street Triple R, a machine loaded with state-of-the-art technology, like a ride-by-wire system with five riding modes, a new full-color TFT instrument, a quick-sifter, and a lap timer.

The visual aspect was characterized by a twin headlight unit, a small fly screen, a two-piece dual seat, a red-finished subframe, and five-spoke wheels with a red pinstripe on the edge of the rim.

The bike was built on an aluminum beam twin-spar frame with a 41 mm upside-down fully adjustable Showa fork on the front and a fully adjustable Showa shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling.

The braking performance was handled by two 310 mm floating discs coupled to four-piston Brembo calipers on the front and a 220 mm disc with a single-piston Brembo caliper on the rear, offering excellent stopping power.

As for the power figures, the 2017 Triumph Street Triple R had installed underneath its fuel tank a 765cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, delivering 116 hp at 12,000 rpm and 77 Nm (57 lb-ft) torque at 9,400 rpm.
