Great to meet you too buddy, great chatting to you 👍

The Street triple is the best road bike I have ever ridden. I own a 2015 675Rx and the newer I rode was the 2021 765RS. All are brilliant. I'm avoiding trying the 2023 RS because it can turn to be expensive 😂

[@brandonjoseph3422]

Yep. I’d take it a bit far. $ for $ it’s the best road bike that anyone can buy.

Lovely bike - would have one in a heartbeat, having owned the 18 and 19 models before. It's a shame to see they've gone a bit cheap on the RS' exhaust though - the 19 one had a nice carbon fibre tip with a Trumpet badge. And yes, the dash is pants - at least with the 18 you could have an old style rev counter (or 3) on it

Returned from the IOM on Thursday, and traded in my MT10 for a brand new 765rs in Cosmic yellow as wanted to down size, need to wait till September for delivery. Its an amazing bike and definitely a massive improvement on the 2018 model I previously owned. Fantastic review as always thanks Choppsy.

[@michaelwyke]

Sharply focussed review as ever. I may have missed some stats but it be handy to know the seat ht with the extra 20mm (cheery fact - inside leg gets shorter as you get older) One point no-one mentions - suspensions are generally described as ‘adjustable’ or not. But what is the RANGE of adjustment like? I’m sure Triumph’s is great but some have a fairly ‘token’ effect on ride ht, bump-absorption etc Thanks for the vid quality👍

[@chrisrader8547]

Hello from the States. Just traded my ‘17 Thruxton R for a ‘24 Street Triple RS in Cosmic Yellow. They had literally just uncrated it and I swooped in and grabbed it. It’s so new, I’ve barely put any miles on it since it’s only been a couple days. Agree on the lack of legible tach, but everything else on that machine is sublime. What a handling platform. Goodness! Best handling bike I have ever owned.

[@spktylr]

I was between an RS and an 890R last year while watching one of your reviews where you called it a "baby Tuono". Coming off an RSV4 that was all I needed to hear to make my decision lol. Love my Striple, aside from the dash.

They used to do the 1050 sport but dropped it be nice to see the 1200 or 765 engine in the sport frame as the 660 is a bit placid

[@alan36753]

Smaller fuel tank because of the slap dash way bike weights are listed, wet weight is crazy. All weights should be with oils but no fuel. That would give accurate comparisons without deterring large fuel tanks

[@tubejorrit]

smaller tank because the new tank is made from plastic with a cover over it. Its also narrower.

Awesome bike with loads of character. I love it 😍

[@trevorphillips3055]

I picked up my cosmic yellow one at the end of April and loving it, done 900 miles so far. I agree on the display, however you can have a tachometer displayed which gives a clearer indication of revs. What I think is worse is the small font on some of the other things like time and fuel range which is difficult to read if like me you wear reading glasses.

[@RichDunn]

Absolutely, that's what I've said about it in my reviews Trevor.

Hi Chops great vid’s as always, watched this with great interest as I’ve got the R version & and I like your take on things. On another note a chap on ‘The Triumph Forum’ is selling his Moto 2, he’s not rode it yet, he wants £13,750. Just in case you we’re interested:)

[@phantomrider22]

I tried to get one during a demo event, but couldn't even get near it. Too many people wanted to try it. Lol

[@BrianMcCann421]

I have had a Street triple 765 RS for the last 3 years. I test rode all the new street triples (2023) and was left a little flat by them. It was just more of the same, yes the RS was much taller and a tad sharper, but still the same sound and feel. I then test rode a KTM 890 Duke GP and fell in love with it. It is sharper, Louder, more focused with no compromises. I have now bought the KTM. With regards to power, the Suzuki GSXR 750 produced near 150 bhp (actually 148) with a smaller engine than the 765 !!

[@LambChopRides]

Yes very true on the power, but straight fours have more revs available so easier to extract the power 👍

[@BrianMcCann421]

Yes very true John, I wasn’t comparing apples with apples

[@andrewprice1189]

Greetings from Australia. Lucky me 2 weeks in to owning the last moto2 edition for sale here. What a bike, makes everything before seems slow steering. Only complaint is the dash is pants in all 4 screens. If only it had the same dash as my streetfighter V4 it really would be perfect. Triumph listen to customers so hopefully they will stop trying to reinvent the wheel dash wise with each new model & just make something simple with a round tacho & the important info on one screen

[@s4m130]

I hope one day I can do a day trip with chopsy for a cornish pasty. Hi from Australia!

[@LambChopRides]

Hehe sounds great! 😜

[@unclemearl]

Mixed thoughts on this. Had one and being roughly same size as you i sold it 3 months later. I felt like an ape on a pit bike with it. Having said that though it was comfy and no issues doing 6 hour+ rides. Was going to upgrade to the 1200rs but there really wasnt much in it size/ frame wise. Decided on an s1000r in the end and i believe it was best thing i did. Amazing bike but i do feel larger riders can look "odd" on them. Also 100%, ageee the rev/ dash is a nightmare to read !

[@motomc6962]

Who cares what you look like 😂 if it’s comfortable it’s comfortable, I’d never sell a good bike to suit the opinion of other people

[@love4boost]

I went and sat on the R yesterday. I expected it to feel similar to my MT-09 in position. It wasn’t my thing. My legs and arms felt more forward. It was my 2nd least favorite position with the S1kR being 1st. I was surprised to see they had a Moto2 RS there also. I didn’t sit on it because clip-ons aren’t my thing. But it was cool to see one. They said they received 2 and sold 1

[@tubejorrit]

the mt09 is like a touring bike or supermoto, the street triple is more racy and you get more feel from the front because of the forward seating position.

[@PeterOlexa_]

Cant wait for the comparison with the 890 R 😍

[@ragerider6283]

Nice review of a great bike. Will be interested to see your comparison & maybe you can test the winner against the Ducati Monster SP as those 3 are the standout premium performance middleweights imo. Cost aside the MV Brutale is in the mix too. Although for me I think the Triumph is something quite special, particularly when you consider the price.

The looks put me off. I prefer the xsr900, with a seat cowl and tail tidy. There's several used RS's advertised. I put a deposit down first in early March and got a delivery of September! Called around and got a cancelled order, luckily just before I called the guy had cancelled. So got mine at the end of April.

[@photographerjonathan]

I think the 765 RS would be the perfect bike if it had a full fairing for wind protection. and I might still buy one the way it is, but what good is all the power if you can't use it without being hammered by the wind. there are big open stretches of highway in some places where it would be great to just cruise at 110. and occasionally go up to higher speeds. but who would want to do that on a naked. these bikes are great for winding roads like in this video. but in a straight line for anything over five or ten minutes, I don't think so. have you seen that beautiful full fairing that someone made for the XSR 900 ? I wish he would make one for the Street Triple RS. I look forward to your comparison with the 890.

[@pedrowarior]

This is something that has been in my mind alot too, have a xj 600n and love the sport-ish feeling position but on longer rides the wind really does give a beating. Went for a test ride on a Norden 901 and rode my fathers s1000xr and the wind protection felt amazing, but I end up also missing the sporty naked riding position on the twistys so a fairing on a naked would be awesome

[@johnharvey5338]

If they make the tank smaller 2 litres less make the wet weight lighter, so you can say it’s a lighter bike.

[@Ukmongoose3]

I sat on one of these recently. Would I be correct in thinking that the bike felt top heavy? I seem to remember from the 2004/5 era that mostly bikes seemed to carry their weight a bit lower. Does this feeling melt away when on the move?

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again : the 2020 model does NOT have a 17 liter tank. I can’t get more than 11,4 liters in it when it’s empty, which gives me (close to) 180km range at 6,5 liters/100km.

Agree. The RS looks great but I found myself much more at home on the 890 R and also the MT09 SP. The Yamaha would be my choice, so comfortable and smooth yet a really quick and nimble bike when you want.

[@stevecade857]

You really ought to chuck in an MT-09 for that comparison test. All great bikes with slightly different focus trying to be top dog naked middleweights. How we have 900cc middleweights I don't really know. I guess the big boys have moved up with 1200/1300cc engines.

[@xpantz]

The Streetie will have to go to 865 or 965 if it has to keep being compared with 900cc machines as a middle weight.

[@paulhope3401]

​@@xpantz I see both bikes as direct compeitors. Despite it lacking the MT09's larger displacement, the ST RS's performance is arguably better for it to be a moot point. The MT09 SP is not so far off in terms of price point for some those of us on a budget. The Duke 890R is another that should be included in what would be a very tasty middleweight naked group test.

[@xpantz]

@@paulhope3401 yeah, I guess the ST should just take it as a compliment ;-)

[@xpantz]

@@paulhope3401 What about the Streetfighter V2... it's kinda in the feisty middle weight naked category. I just bought a new ST but the SF was the other one "on my list."

How come you never rode duke 890 r....seen 1290 and you loved it....just curious as you rode street triple, mt09, monster, etc?

Not sure how much difference 1cm of seat heigh makes when you chuck 20stone of chopsy on 😀

Hi Mr Chop - Can I ask what ultimate add on mount you were using?

[@beetleything1864]

it's all in his links below the video - hit MORE and everything he uses is there.

@@beetleything1864 Hi - I can see its one of the the ultimate addon's but wanted to know the actual mount to the bar clamp - I can only see strap mounts for push bikes and wondered which one.

[@LambChopRides]

Yes it's one of the strap mounts as that's easy when I'm riding different bikes. If I were to buy a permanent mount for this bike one of the top clamp mounts would be best. The one where you remove one of the bar bolts 👍

@@LambChopRides Thanks

Great bike. Only downside is that Triumph will bring out an upgrade or new version in a few months. Been bitten twice before by Triumph on this one. 😂
