"Is the RS model worth the extra $2600 versus the R model?" Yes! Despite the higher price point, it's actually the counter-intuitive 'value' buy. The part content fully justifies it. The more important question is: will you utilize and 'get' what the RS up-charge buys you? I went with the 'R' ...a conscious (yet tough) choice, especially since I previously had the '20 'RS.'

One of the best all rounder bikes I've ridden. Are there better track bikes? Yes. Are there better street bikes? Of course. But the Street Triple is great in both environments. It is plush and easy to ride on the street, and extremely planted and controlled on the track. I have a Panigale V2, a ZX4RR, Street Triple RS right now. If I only have to keep one bike, it's going to be the Street Triple. It is that good to me.
@robertgagne93553 ай бұрын
IMO the RS is worth the cost, it has better suspension, a bit more power, nicer display... What is needs is both head lights on for hi and low beams, a way to flash the hi beams, some grab handles for the rear, cornering head lights and legible information on the display. I have a 22 and love the bike, but it seems that some of the cost was for track related features, maybe there should be a Street Triple RR for those looking to do track, and then the RS, for street use.

This is my first time watching your videos and this was a very good overview/review. I think you highlighted another key point when riding the rough section of road that wasn't considered in the recommendation of the R over the RS for most people and that's the quality of roads they will be riding. I live in an area with some pretty poorly maintained roads, even the "nice" roads can be a little rough, so the upgraded suspension components on the RS would not only make for a more comfortable/compliant ride but contribute to additional safety when riding as well. That coupled with the other upgrades, and the optional cruise control add-on, make the RS a no-brainer for the extra money. Which in Canada, where I live, is also only $2600 or a much better value than American buyers get. As for competitors, I was deciding between ST RS and new MT-09 SP but in Canada the MT-09 is $17k, without add-ons, vs $13k for the Street Triple RS. Even after adding cruise control, the Bluetooth module, heated grips, TPMS, all the protective options, bar end mirrors and colour matched flyscreen the Triumph still comes out nearly $1800 less than the Yamaha. To me, the Street Triple RS is easily the bike to beat. Which is why my order is being placed with my nearest Triumph dealer.

The strange thing about the suspension is most reviews I have seen say that the R is better for the road with bad road surfaces etc…. This was due to the plushness of the ride, the handling stability presumably due to the 10mm lower ride height of the rear where as the RS is firmer, quicker to drop in to a corner and therefore better suited to the track. I’m not sure if that contradicts your thoughts or not and let’s face it both bikes have fully adjustable suspension and different tyres for a start

Good job of making the crucial point that it is important to buy the bike that suits your actual needs, rather than simply the one which provides the best "numbers". All too often, riders are wooed by marketing and hype into buying something they don't really need, simply because the experts say one is better performing. Everything is relative. Sometimes, the less exotic choice is actually the best one.

I have a 2022 RS and I put 7000 miles on it, 60% urban 40% canyon/highways. It came with standard damper settings ("road"), and it felt a bit stiff to me because the pavement here is appalling. Then I set the dampers to "comfort" settings (less bump/rebound up front, less rebound at the rear), in the same pavement I got a significant improvement, I´d say it became tolerable for frequent commuting.

I own this exact bike right now in this cosmic yellow, I would say if you care about the sitting position, go for the mt9sp would be more up right, the street triple is just a tiny touch more leaned forward. One thing I would say about the mt9 is that the breaks are not the finest, the street triple is definitely better at that part, but you could upgrade the brakes on the mt9 and it’s probably cheaper overall. I was debating between the two but I just can’t get over the looks of the mt9. I would say the street triple is definitely better on track, the mt9 engine is more fun on the road.

I slightly beg to differ. An aftermarket exhaust frees up a lot of unsprung weight.

Triumph’s always seem to me like they’re designed my committees, some of which don’t have anyone who actually rides I them. You get this mix of well thought-out features next to terrible ones that were definitely designed by someone who doesn’t ride. They never really nail it for me.

If you know how to calculate hp and torque you know its the same engine as the R. Of course you have more hp if you move the red line further up the rev range. How many bikes haven't been sold at higher prices just because the hp is said to be more just because the calculation is at higher revs. For sure the mapping can make the bikes feel different but it doesn't change the maxes the engine can do.

What are you talking about? Just because a bike revs higher doesn’t mean it has increased HP. Where did you learn that from?

Mechanical Engineering. Power = torque x revs

@@dirkhuman760 Oh, okay. But there are many bikes with more horsepower than this bike, that don’t rev as high. Please explain? I thought bore and stroke were also factors in HP.

I was referring to the engines of the r and rs Triumphs with exactly the same mechanicals and not other bikes with different mechanicals. It is important to not try change the subject.

I believe Big Rock Moto misspoke concerning the optional cruise control on this bike. It is available on the R model but NOT on this RS. The Triumph configurator states that cruise is "Suitable for non-DRL bikes only." The RS comes standard with DRL and the R has no DRL. I had an RS on order earlier this year and canceled when my dealer confirmed that cruise was not available.

sorry but you're wrong the Rs can have the optional cruise control but not the R.
@gordongraham430711 ай бұрын
The Rs have DRLs. Currently own a 2022 R, and DRLs are stock.

I would love to be wrong about this, but my dealer told me no cruise on the RS after checking with Triumph. Please, someone show me a picture or video of a RS with cruise.

@@mtbiker64 well, your dealer suck sorry. In this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/rHraqJenoJuXoc0si=fv348pc_KXPAcbXG You can see him fitting the switch with cruise control, then he goes to his Triumph dealer who activate the feature (free of charge). What you can't have in the US is having the light switch, to switch off the low beam and only run the DRL like we can in the EU. Even if you buy a EU switch and fit it to your bike it will not work. I think your dealer is confusing this and the cruise control
