If Triumph Made A Speed Twin R...

[@GooogleGoglee]

Triumph should absolutely put this model on series production!!

[@vacqi]

It already has: the fabulous thruxton R!

[@barkindustry8150]

As much as I love the Thruxton RS, this Speed Twin is a gorgeous, simplistic animal. 17k seems a bit ouchies for some forks/caliper and rear shocks in my opinion. Great video none the less. Thanks for sharing :)

[@infovet2679]

just take thruxton R and put a speedtwin hand bar on it ))) much more cheaper

[@brookcampbell2940]

They are giving away the Matte Black and Silver RS models for 2-3,000 less then MSRP. You can get Free Spirits Fat Bar or Tracker kit for $700 and a Speed Twin tank for -$1,000 in Black, and all of that less then 17,000. The RS motor is very noticebly more powerful (rode both at the dealer yesterday). Unfortunately I still cant decide which one to buy. I'm leaning Thruxton RS

[@obliviondio]

@@infovet2679 Thruxton has a different seat and wheels. Gets very pricey

[@SandrossAlim]

@@brookcampbell2940 I'm in the same predicament.. and they took off 3k on the RS at my local dealership, i might just pull the trigger..

@@SandrossAlim I purchased the Jet Black 2021 Thruxton RS. GET IT! Its awesome! Was in the fence with the Kawi z900rs, but just purchase a 2003 Kawi ZRX1200R Beast to quench my semi-vintage I-4 sound. I'm super happy now and done, until Harley releases the 1250 Rev Max Cafe Racer (if/when).

Fantastic bike with awesome upgrades. Hopefully Triumph release a Speed Twin RS.

[@roberthall1437]

Great video Bob, it went by so fast. What a great looking bike. With the extra goodies on it, F& R suspension, super radial brakes, gold painted wheels and a muffler that's not too loud. I would've liked some gold pin striping on the fuel tank and lo and behold a JPS motorcycle, would sell like hot cakes. Well done Bob.

[@jerryandnancywertzbaugher7778]

I'd like to see a T120 R. So much of a bike speaks to the aesthetic and the T120 just has what it takes; full wrap mud guard, pea-shooter exhaust, nice touring riding position. One can of course easily up-grade their own T120 with Fox Shocks and MeerKat X-pipe, but upgrading the wheels, brakes and fork are a more difficult DIY; so it would be nice if the Triumph factory or dealers would offer a T120 package with Thruxton-grade brakes and suspension.

[@davelawrence594]

Triumph should really make this bike I certainty would be tempted to buy one especially if triumph throw in a decent choice of colours like all manufacturers not enough colour Scheme's to choose from!! 🙄🥺 Great comparison video Fella keep up the great reviews!! 👌🏻👍🏻

[@motojc]

exactly what I wish would have done to the ST (minus the gold). But at that price, I wonder if it is easier and even cheaper to get a Thruxton and change the gas tank and seat and fender to that of the ST...

[@fernandoadami5919]

And also the footpegs to mqtch ST riding position

[@LucasSi919]

yes! this thing is beautiful. i definitely think there will be a speed twin R or RS its just a matter of time. Another amazing review MOTOBOB. thank you for the amazing work you put in into these videos

[@lynsmith1096]

Good review and the Speed Twin R does look and sound a lot better.

[@RichardRaueiser]

I got a speed twin, upgraded with öhlins shocks and fork inserts, a bigger rear sprocket, a pair of Vance & Hines, a washable air filter, and a pair of Pirelli MT60 RS. Super happy with it.

[@niceviewoverthere4463]

The Speed Twin is a great thing as standard. In its defence, at first I thought the suspension was harsh and bumpy but 6,000Km have mellowed it amazingly. I've had six Triumphs now and all of them have improved up to 8,000Km then stayed consistent up to 60,000Km - the longest I've kept one before being lured back in...

[@Jambome]

Jack Lilley blew it right out of the ball park with this. Hinckley(or is it Thailand), take note!

[@eastbaymauiboy]

I LOVE it!!, it's gorgeous!!. Gonna have to wait til 2022 when the dealerships need to get rid of em and sell em for around $12,000, like they are the 'older' Thruxton R's , then maybe I'll finance one. It needs to be in the garage next to it's brother (or cousin?), the 13 Speedie R. I do super wish it had a 180 or 190 rear tho!

[@Dirkadew]

This exactly what I’m doing to my speed twin. Can probably make a video if anyone is interested

[@Dirkadew]

Hey sorry about failing to make a video. My gopro died and I only recorded swapping out the rear shocks. I was doing this in a parking structure too so I didn’t want to leave all my tools and parts laying around while the GoPro charged. Anyways here’s a picture of the front end off and how it looks completed. Fairly easy to do honestly. Couple generic front end swap videos on KZbin and I’m sure you can follow along with the service manual. imgur.com/a/Lvr7qkR

[@ianbendall3116]

I seen it on google images a week or so ago and instantly said I love it. Having had time to reflect, I think the rear suspension is ok as far as bling goes but the wheels and fork legs are a bit too much gold for me, I’d rather they were black, It also needs a decat x-pipe for a bit more growl. £17K is too steep for me but I do love it.

[@jjnewman65]

Agreed. I have recently bought a 2019 model and are making my own much cheaper modifications.

[@enosmn]

Holy moly. Beautiful. Not a fan of the gold wheels but honestly, props to the builders. Very nice

[@SoulofMachine]

Beauty job there, Bob! Good to see your content ever improving. I really hate the gold colour on the parts, but that bike looks and sounds wonderful.

[@oliviervidal4051]

Triumph doit produire cette machine en serie, elle est absolument exceptionnelle ! Ce serait bien.

[@Ryzen_56X]

I'm pretty sure that for the costs of the customization of the Speed R you can get the Thruxton R instead, I'm sure they both match the similar price.

[@fastj1962]

While the gold isn’t me, I can’t help but really like this. A real b-road weapon. Brilliant as usual.

Well said ,I also don’t like the gold either but it’s something I would probably put up with if there was a large performance Difference the extra money compared to the stock is a little bit of a pinch too. 👍

[@ANONYMOUSBIKERUSA]

Very cool bike ! Certainly a fun one to rip around on!

[@fredericrousseau7643]

This Speed Twin is pretty close the one I envisioned building myself (before eventually buying a Thruxton R last year). Only difference is the front suspension: I would have preferred a right side up Ohlins fork, for the vintage look. Imagine topping that with the new Thruxton RS engine... Sold my Thruxton R in the meanwhile, ready for something like this one. It's up to Triumph now :)

That is one pretty bike. I've always loved the Speed Twin and it's one of my 'potentials' for may re-entering of the bike market. My only question is: reliability and support. Not thrilled with my local Triumph dealer and the less I would have to visit them, the better. I've heard some negative things from someone I respect. But that's one person....

[@TheGreatestBeyonder]

ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! Well done Jack Lilly! 👍🏻 Actually tempted to chop in my T120 but done too much to it recently to justify it. An x-pipe would free up the engine a bit and certainly give you a few more unnecessary bhp/mph, but with the sc project’s exhausts it would be obnoxiously loud, so I think they probably made the right decision! Great review, thanks.

[@bradh74]

I think it looks cool and if it handles better that's awesome! But is it worth 6k more? Sometimes that stuff get out of hand. Maybe if it was factory they could do it for a lot less. Triumph definitely makes some really cool bikes.

[@steveottavaino3804]

Waiting triumph... Riding a 2020 Bonnie Diamond Edition and looking to add a Speed Twin to the garage, won’t move on one for fear of an “R” version being released, that would be upsetting for sure. I’m not getting any younger Triumph, hope you’re listening to your fans. Cheers.

Right. Same here. I bought my 17 T100 and immediately felt obsolete when the Speed Twin came out 😭

Nice upgrades,but a black finish on the suspension and wheels instead of the gold would be a big improvement IMO. A De-cat also a must.....

[@marcgumbold7420]

Thanks for the vid. To be honest, I would have appreciated some more engaged riding though, sharp bends, etc. - which could have provided some clearer judgement on the higher-end suspension, instead of some soft rolling on more or less straight urban roads... 6 grand difference is too much for somewhat different sound and arguably better looks only.

[@motobob]

That's fair - I didn't have time on this day but I'll try to in future

[@Supercruze]

Beautiful motorcycle. Great upgrade.

[@JohnCunningham-sy5ug]

I think I may look at this bike next season. Have a thruxton with uprated suspension and exhaust . Sounds great the cat would have to go on this bike.

[@ele-k-trick8071]

Is wish the production Speed Twin had double round headlights like test mules that were seen on spyshots. Imagine this puppy with Rocket 3's headlights! It has very similar geometry with the street triple anyway, double round headlights would be a great nod

[@shyan5886]

What model of Ohlins Fork for this modification were use?

[@motobob]

It's taken from the Thruxton TFC, so according to the Triumph website "Ohlins, ∅43mm, USD, fully adjustable, NIX 30"

[@vincentsmith3701]

Sweet ride and fantastic equipment conversation..do you have a link for Ace Classics? Love the older bikes as well

[@thecappy]

17k! Nope, bought my Speedy for 10k put about 2k in suspension (nitron forks, ohlins rear) decat and pipes. Much better than stock. Problem with the thruxton rear is they are to high for the speedy.

[@dan-sc7fm]

Yes, I agree. I did the same. except opted for andreani fork cartridges, more accessible here in the states. The ohlins black rear shocks look better in my opinion too that are available. However, they are thruxton specific, Ohlins doesn't yet make front or rear specific shocks for Speed Twin, and will raise you aprox. 5mm higher on back which isn't noticible. The setup is noticeably better. And of course d- cat the bike and put whatever slip ons you desire. Hell of a lot cheaper than $6,000.

[@thecappy]

@@dan-sc7fm ohlins specific rear are the 923. I'm in the states too. Fast bike industries in NC will get you the nitron forks as will a company in cali.

[@KiwiMoto72]

Ditto - Nitron front and rear on my 2019 Speedy. Runs great. And not a fan of loud pipes..

[@dan-sc7fm]

@@thecappy Sorry, you are correct . The 923 ohlins are speed twin specific. I meant the blackline ohlins are a bit longer 7mm. I like the look of the blackline. I think they have a plus or minus 5mm, adjust. So it's negligible. I agree the Nitrons are better front. But I didn't like the fact that they had to be sent in to fastbike to be assembled then sent back to be installed (special tools required). And also the fact that I had a bad experience waiting forever for Nitrons.

[@bikerwilli9130]

If I want to convert the Thruxton RS on this high handlebar, is this fork bridge a triumph? it should fit?? is the rear original of the speed twin? thank you from austria

[@hawkeyefire6208]

Looks great, but I’m sure if you bought the parts and fitted yourself, if you have the skills it would not cost £17,000. The bike should have always had radial brakes I thought from the factory and better forks. But still a nice bike. With the engine it has it should have always had these parts on. Should of taken it for a better blast. Great vid, I enjoyed it.

It looks very good. Yes Triumph should make an official version. Although I would baulk at the extra £6k price tag of this one. The exhausts do look good, I always thought Triumph put the slightly naff looking production pipes on so they could sell the Vance and Hines. Not sure what I would pick, these pipes or the Vance and Hines. Is there much difference between them?

[@johnfarrand5574]

i need a parts list. thinking about this mod on a 2020 twin that took a hit and bent the front forks

I own a Z900RS right now, but would buy a Speed Twin RS in a heartbeat. Maybe something is coming, Triumph recently announced all 2021 models but the Speed Twin hasn't been updated (yet?).

[@robbikebob]

Yeah, it looks really good. But so is the standard one. I think I'd still go standard, but would definitely buy those pipes! I appreciate the suspension upgrade, but, unless your after ultimate performance, and if you are why are you buying a speed twin, then it's hard to justify the extra money.

[@stevesteve1965]

I added ohlins to my ST and sprayed the wheels gold just to have a little less black . Front end is ok will sort it one day but it's good enough. But a booster plug and suspension upgrade is a good place to start with the ST. Cracking bikes.

[@dan-sc7fm]

There is an ecu map available through tuneworks. Much better than a booster plug if you're so inclined.

[@stevesteve1965]

@@dan-sc7fm yeah, I'd never re-map an ecu, so many stories and comments of forums from guys who've done this and then have starting issues, running issues, drop In peek performance, loss of pick up.. The bikes plenty fast enough and torque is spot on with a DeCat.. These bikes only need better fueling which euro 4-5 doesn't allow.

[@fastj1962]

As usual, great video. When I first saw it I thought, why would someone build a bike with the gold suspension everyone can't wait to get off their TTRs but I realize they just took what was available probably. Having bought my TTR mostly for the looks because there are lots of bikes that out perform both the speed twin and the TTR, this bike still is sub par in the looks department. That's probably why Triumph doesn't make a HP version of it. Its a faster street twin and that's it. :) (a speed twin is the "r" version of the street twin lol) Thanks for your perspective, always appreciated.

[@djgomaz1]

Fantastic video and will vist the store when Boris Johnson let’s us out again, really liked the upgraded version on the speed twin but not so much the price I will probably stick with stock for now when I buy one 😎 thanks again for your review 👍

[@bikersoncall]

Love the dual exhaust on both bikes, dig the exhaust screens on the Flagship of this series.

[@Agwings1960]

There were several reasons why the European bike builders like Triumph and Norton couldn't compete with the Japanese motorcycle building machine during the 70's and 80's. But I maintain that while triumph was still building twin cylinder machines, the Japanese were building three and four cylinder motorcycles, once you've heard the sound of a Z1 at 10,000 RPM, you're probably not going back to a twin cylinder motorcycle, unless it's a V twin. If Triumph had offered a fairly large cc three cylinder machine back in the day, they would have been more able to compete. Imho, but they're building some real snappy looking machines right now.

[@chiasexe1603]

just look amazing, thank you!

[@Heavywall70]

If Tri made this model I’d park it in my toy box IMMEDIATELY I’ve read many reviews that the stock suspension isn’t really ample for larger riders 136kg and 180cm (had to do the math on measures) because the forks aren’t fully adjustable. But seriously Triumph is really doing a lot of things correctly in today’s motorcycle market and making THIS bike would just be another correct thing they do. Ultimately price doesn’t matter because there is someone, or many someones, that want this bike. TFC maybe? Edit: the price would probably not be this high if the factory were producing them in bunches.

I’d understand if you where coming of a T120 maybe but this is two steps above. It’s not meant to knock your socks off from one ride. Your not going from a pewee 50 to a Ducati v4.

Very well done, but for the love of “classic” aesthetics, get rid of the cheap looking exposed pinch-weld on that otherwise well sculptured fuel tank.

[@nightster6378]

I don't mean to be negative - yes I do, so for £6k added onto an already over-expensive bike you get a noisier, better looking, comfy couch with an R in its title. I didn't see it being ridden on country roads where handling could be taken into consideration though even if much better would doubt worth £6k. I will agree it's not always about the £££ if you have them. About 15 years ago maybe more at the Edinburgh Bike show, I had a friendly discussion with a young man I think his name was Jamie? and a junior designer in the R&D department. He asked my opinion on the Bonneville range which if I recall there was about 7, so I gave it. My 69 T120 was the R1 of the day and yes over time (well you know the history) I told him I think they should produce a traditional sports, Bonnie, i.e. semi cafe racer style with a reasonably HIGH performance and tuned 270° crank motor (Phil Irving) with the Thruxton name. His reply there isn't a market for a high-performance twin-cylinder motorcycle. My reply was "have you heard of Ducati. Since then we got the cafe racer styling but still without (in my opinion) the performance.
