TRIUMPH Street Triple R (2014-2015) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2014, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Street Triple R, a higher-spec motorcycle than the standard model. The bike debuted in 2008 and packed several differences over the standard model.

In the visual department, the bike packed standard features, such as a twin headlight system with the instrument panel mounted on top, a one-piece dual seat, a new exhaust system mounted under the engine, and five-spoke lightweight aluminum alloy wheels.

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

In the braking performance, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 310 mm discs coupled to four-piston calipers on the front and a 250 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear, delivering excellent stopping power.

As for the power figures, the 2014 Triumph Street Triple R had its soul brought to life by a 675cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a fuel injection system in charge, delivering 107 hp at 11,700 rpm and 69 Nm (51 lb-ft) torque at 9,100 rpm.

The bike's power was handled by a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch and a final O-ring chain drive, pushing the motorcycle to a top speed of 227 kph (141 mph).
