2023 Triumph Street Triple RS | IT'S THE BEST!

The brand new and updated 2023 Triumph Street Triple RS, a premium middle weight sports bike for the road with track potential. For 2023 Triumph have made some updates for the Street Triple RS, and they have made a brilliant difference!
With changes to the engine and chassis geometry the new Street Triple RS, is in my opinion better than ever and is the best sports bike money can buy for the road. Beating its competition, this Street Triple is a blast to ride and wins the top spot for me.

Totally agree that this bike rides beautifully. Took others out, MT09SP, MT10, StreetFighter V2 and nothing compared to the RS. Ended up buying the yellow. 👍

[@redangrevival]

🤙 a great choice! I think it is absolutely stunning, and the yellow model just looks awesome 😁 Enjoy

[@Diwash1]

What was the mt10 like ? Vs this?

[@reddpill]

@@Diwash1 Good bike but I found it alot heavier and had a difficult throttle at low speeds. Brakes are better on the RS also.

[@photographerjonathan]

Should've tried the XSR 900. it feels a little more planted than the MT09. in my opinion. because it has a longer swing arm. but if I didn't find my beautiful 2nd hand Ducati 939 Supersport. I probably would've looked for a 765 RS. even though I would like it more if it had wind protection. at least an upper fairing. or a full wind screen.

But yeah like I said every time i ride mine I just keep thinking to myself it’s just a waste of a bike 180 bhp cos in second gear it’s already at the speed limit which is about 10% of its potential, I kinda wish I’d just waited for the Street triple 😂😂😂

[@briansteele2723]

It seems to be worth trying the R first as it is probably enough for most people. I'm on a Trident and that is enough for my narrow French roads and my ability level for now and has less divisive looks

[@redangrevival]

Yes the R is a great option if you don't want all the tech etc... 👍

[@stefaandeswert377]

The dash on the R model looks bad on it though. It looks too small in comparison to the deadlights.

[@TK-cl1jm]

The R is lacking too many of the extras that the RS has. The RS looks so much better!

[@alexmorgan3435]

Nice one. I rode a new Street Triple RS back in 2017 and felt it quite manic in that you had to rev it to get it to go, above 8-9k revs it flew but you are doing license and life losing speeds at this point. I think it red lines around 13-13.5k revs. Screaming the engine in 2nd or 3rd gears is of no interest to me. I prefer low down torque to shove you along. I also felt it was quite flighty. Found it quite tiring to ride. I had it for nearly a whole day. Didn't really gel with it. But maybe since 2017 Triumph have done a lot of work on it. I preferred the Speed Triple 1050 RS as you know Angus. I tried the 1200 Speed Triple RS and you are dead right it is too fast for the road. The handling was sublime so easy to turn, but the ride was a little too hard. Maybe this could be softened as I am not the heaviest. You also had to rev it like the smaller Street Triple RS to get the engine to come alive which meant you were well into license and life losing territory on the roads. What's the price? I know I can look on Triumph's website. Some Triumph dealers are doing the 1200 Speed Triple RS for around £13.5k which is a massive discount off the price when Triumph launched them. I guess they haven't been selling well. I must admit I am not keen on the recent display options on Triumph's TFTs. Too gimmicky. I just want simple dial format of speed and rev counter, gear indicator, fuel level, fuel range, all the basic info clearly visible without thinking where the hell is it? That extra second you spend searching on the TFT screen could be critical. Nevertheless will check one out in a nearby dealer and maybe get a ride. Definitely a rival for the KTM 790 Duke. Rode that bike 2 years ago. Awesome. That pheasant had a death wish. Maybe it was a spy sent by Aprilia or KTM to derail your rest ride? LoL. Thanks for your review. ;@).

[@redangrevival]

£11,295 Yes I think Triumph have done quite a lot of work on it since 2017! It feels very agile but planted now, not flighty at all 👍 Also they have shortened the gears so you can actually rev it out and not be breaking the sound barrier! Really works well on road. I would usually opt for the torquier bike, however this Street Triple has won me over. Just dreamy! Haha yes perhaps the pheasant was working undercover 😂 Cheers

[@Chuubs]

Haha that pheasant had a death wish. Love the sound of that but I'm not sure I would get along with it, once I get over to Devon way I'll still need to come over to Kent at least once a month so am heavily leaning towards either a 1250RS or the GS, I prefer to have the torque lower down rather than screaming, can't deny its a stunner though. Hope you're doing good bud

[@redangrevival]

haha yup it really wanted it! I should have granted his wish. Yes not the ideal bike for long distance commuting. For a second bike, I would have it in a flash. Just stunning.

[@yonniboy1]

I traded in my 2020 RS for the 2023 model in cosmic yellow and have been amazed that Triumph could improve what was already a great bike by such a margin, the handling's sharper but still planted and the low to mid range acceleration is really pepped up by the shorter gearing, the ride is also plusher, the only slight gripe I have is the TFT which I find too cluttered and IMO the one on the R (also on the Trident and Tiger 660) although simpler does everything that's required but overall it's a superb machine and I agree with Bike magazine who called it "the best bike Triumph have ever built".

[@redangrevival]

It is such an amazing bike 😁 Just all those small changes really do make a big difference, almost perfection! Love the yellow as well great choice. Cheers

[@kristiannorman]

Great vid, thanks for the info.I also watched your duke 890 video. You said that was the best allrounder. Has the 765 RS changed your mind? I'm thinking of upgrading my 790 duke. It would be between 890R and the 765RS. I only use it for weekend fun. Which would say would be more suited? Thanks in advance.

[@redangrevival]

Thanks glad you enjoyed the video 👍 I would say the KTM might be a bit more fun, however I would personally buy the Triumph for its riding quality. Just every thing about it is pure class.

[@rodikaya5692]

It's even better on the road/tarmac !

[@photographerjonathan]

I test road a yellow RS yesterday. I really love the bike except for a couple of things. the display could be better. and most of all I wish it had a full fairing. I was wearing a 3/4 helmet and I had the strap a little to loose. and when I got up around 140 kilometer. which is around 86mph the helmet literally lifted off of my head and was only held on by the strap around my throat. so you have a bike that is capable of doing 150 mph. but even at 86 mph you are being hammered by the wind. so any high speed riding would have to be in little spurts. but if it had a full fairing you could actually really enjoy that top end. the breaks on the bike are top notch. and the combination of it feeling composed most of the time but also feeling super light is really nice. in really slow traffic you can idle the bike in first gear and the engine does fine. no gagging or buckling or whatever you call it. I own a 2017 Ducati 939 Supersport and I love everything about the bike. it has similar ergonomics to the RS but with a fairing. but the 939 does not like being at 2000 rpm and doesn't want to idle along in any gear at those rpm's the twin engine wants to get above 3000 rpm. but the bike has more low end and midrange punch then the RS. but I think the RS is overall a faster bike if you are just flying through the gears with the quick shifter at high rpm's. but to me the biggest advantage to the RS is how great of a city bike it would be because it feels like you are maneuvering a small light bike like a Ninja 400 when you are going between cars at low speeds. its an amazing combination of light weight but still stable. but not quite as stable as my 939. I will be keeping my eyes out for a 2nd hand yellow one which I might start to see maybe a year from now. I also tested a Trident. Speed Twin 1200, and the 900 Tiger I think it's called. and inside the dealership they had one of the top model 765's with the clip on bars. but it said sold on it. where I live the Triumph Street Triple RS is a $14.000 dollar bike. that is why I will be keeping my eye out for a second hand one. because I wouldn't mind owning one for a second nice bike. and I love different engine styles. so I would eventually like to own a triple to go along with my V twin. and also an inline four would be cool. if I can get a house with a garage there are probably five bikes I would like to eventually own.

[@redangrevival]

Great review. As a sports bike for the road, which would you go for between this and the new Hornet. I don't doubt this is probably the better bike, but when you take the price difference into consideration, its a closer call.

[@redangrevival]

To be honest I would really try to stretch my budget to get this bike 😁 It is another level of quality to the Hornet. However that is just me, I am not very good at going for the bargain option 🥴

[@nismospec2649]

I agree with revival. Sit on a Triumph, then sit on a Honda. The two can't be compared in quality of materials. Triumph is just a classy, sophisticated step up.

[@garethtemple6242]

Just been revisiting the video, as I'm seriously thinking about one of these. My big question would be, if you don't do track days and just want a road bike, is the RS worth spending the extra £1700 on over the R model. At the moment, I'm thinking I could get the R with a few factory accessories and still have quite a bit of change. The colours are much better on the RS, but I'm not sure I want to spend all that extra money just for that, and I'm not sure I'm a good enough rider to notice the other improvements. What with your view be?

[@TK-cl1jm]

​@garethtemple6242 RS all the way! I'm not a track rider, but went with the RS in Carnival Red. Simply fell in love with the looks, and really wanted cruise control.

[@nigelfisher3756]

Thanks for the review. Sounds like a great bike, dynamically, but the issue for me would be the front-end looks and insufficient torque for occasional lazy, relaxed riding days. I need to buy with both head & heart and whilst it’s a very good road bike (and great track bike) I’m not sure if I could live with the looks, torque deficiency and Triumph’s slightly worrying reliability and service costs. Also, why is everyone obsessed with quickshifters? Again, great for a track day for that extra half second, but on UK roads too many speed cameras and potholes to warrant one ( unless, as I say, you use the track). The roads looked very wet & greasy but was still surprised by the amount of crud over the rear suspension given it had a hugger fitted. Overall, a lovely bike, great handling, super soundtrack and well made but not without a few flaws. Would be good see this against a Hornet 750.

[@redangrevival]

It is my pleasure 👍 I am the same, I would usually opt for the torquier bike. However this new Street Triple has won me over, an absolute peach! The shorter gearing helps a lot. The QS is so much fun and I would always have one given the option. I don't care about the extra speed, it is just so nice to use 😁 Personally I think this bike would blitz the new Hornet (not considering price). Cheers

[@wl660]

Yes, the Hornet is in competition with the Trident / Tiger Sport, not the R/S or even R Street Triple.

[@nigelfisher3756]

I’d wager that it is. Similar engine size and electronic trickery and not far off each other performance wise. And the Hornet is a steal, albeit not as classy as the Trumpet.

[@TK-cl1jm]

PLENTY of torque for the road. QS is SO nice, and you don't have to be riding like a maniac to enjoy it. Very civilized and smooth throttle at leisurely pace. Looks are stunning! I quickly got used to, then really appreciated, the front end.

I agree it’s the best middleweight track bike but disagree with it being the best road bike. It’s too high revving to get the best out of it for the road. Great bike though and if I done allot of track days I would definitely pick the Street RS every day over its rivals

[@reddpill]

Not after the changes they've made to the gearing, with the increase in HP. Goes very well.

[@Steve-motorcycles]

@@reddpill they have shortened the gearing in the first few gears

[@redangrevival]

Fair enough, it does lack some lower down torque compared to its competition. However I actually found that I could rev it out and use the power on the road. I think the shorter gearing helps.

You liked it then…

[@redangrevival]

Haha just a bit!

[@jmlupoludowicy1239]

It seems to have it all, quality components, some clever geometry, a torquey, zippy engine with a Moto2 soundtrack to boot and it made you cream your undies again… but sorry mate… I just can’t get past the looks! 🙈😂 Cheers, Lupo

[@redangrevival]

haha it is an absolute beauty! I am having to be carful just thinking of it again 😂 Fair enough the looks are different. Cheers

[@greensandbeansgaming1358]

The mirrors look horrible. I prefer the stock ones.

[@motos-passion42]

Whohh, the Street as never been an off road bike ..... your roads are so bumpy 😟🥵 what a pity

[@redangrevival]

haha yup there where some sketchy roads, however must say it handled them very well and was a blast to ride!

[@HOXoxygene]

@@redangrevival sorry, but i prefer the street on our French mountain roads, here 😉 : kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJqbhGuLmceUa80

[@elfspicer]

Great bike, shit rev counter. My only complaint.

[@redangrevival]

Yea I agree the TFT screen can be a bit too "busy" at times!

[@BarnettSpeedSuzukiThou]

The bar end mirrors the headers and the headlight ruin it, imho.

[@reddpill]

I thought the same and have always hated the headlights until I went in and saw the new one. They've def. fixed it up and not made it as bad.

[@gazza7064]

Just seen the new MT09 now that is ugly at the front end and all black plastic 🫣

[@Jebemtiljeljak]

Been stuck between this and the new Streetfighter V2...........

[@redangrevival]

Oooo that is a tough choice! However I would go with the Triumph 👍
