This is a One Year Ownership Review of my 2020 Street Triple 765 RS

[@renebecker462]

I am also close to a 1 year ownership of my street triple RS MY 2020. I got the bike without the windscreen and bought this after about 6 months. I can answer to your followers: it makes a noticable difference, especially in between 40-80 mph. Above 80mph (German Highway) you still getting a lot of wind on your chest. It makes the difference in between actively noticing the Wind and not minding to much. Great Video!

[@BikesofRye]

Your comment is pinned thanks

[@Fee.1]

How do you both feel about the ergos? It’s identical to a Daytona, just with bars to make you more upright and less bent right? So how bad is it for longer rides?

[@renebecker462]

@@Fee.1 I cannot really compare it to a daytona as I never owned one. I am 1.85m. My body is in upright Position, only slightly bended forward. Footrest is high up so your legs might be tired after a few hours. I am just back from the "grande tour des Alpes". 3500km within 10 days was possible but I was pushing my own Limits. I would say 4 hours is comfortable, after 7 hours a day my knees Hurt.

[@bella_testastretta]

is German highway at 80mph supposed to be more windy than American highway at 80mph?

[@fynn8252]

I think there's a reason the street triple is so well-received by many. It's a proven platform that has existed for many years and it just keeps getting refined. Despite the release of the 890 Duke, I still believe the Triumph is on a league of its own and provides an excellent all-around riding experience. Thanks for posting the review!

[@BikesofRye]

Once there is an 890 demo I will be booking on to compare it

[@darrenhyde7742]

Just coming up to a year ownership of my RS and totally agree with you about the bike. Dose it all for me, can easily plod to work on it, then take the long way home and have fun on it. Went out and did a 6 hr ride on it this week with no problems at all...very comfortable and capable bike imo, never fails to make me smile when I’m out. 👍🏍

[@BikesofRye]

That's exactly it you can go so slow on it yet when you want to it opens up into a bit of a riot but in a controlled manner

It's always a pleasure to ride 😊 appreciate your opinion 👍🏼

[@tigerick7291]

You've got to love a Street Triple. I had a 675 R, the most fun bike I've ever owned. I'm quite tempted to get an RS one day.

[@gamekeeper687]

I loved my RS (previous gen), stuck clip ons on it for track days and the accessory fly screen was just enough to get the airflow over the top of my helmet when tucked in on the tank. 22K miles In a year and did everything on it, only sold for my Daytona because I wanted something more track dedicated, would love to to have it back for a road bike 👌

[@BikesofRye]

The guy that tuned my bike races a 765RS you can get after market fairings for them too... he builds them for customers also so it seems to be the thing to do

[@gamekeeper687]

@@BikesofRye I considered it after I built one at my old work with road fairings it was in MCN/fast bike mag etc, but it was just well out of my budget range to do it on mine.

[@ianh9871]

Testament to your bike is its predecessor the 675, on which Gary Johnson won the 2014 IOM TT. Thats how good these Triumphs are.

[@chriswest2290]

My fav bike. I had the street R previous gen and it was great. If I still loved in the UK I would get the RS in a heart beat. Road conditions are not good enough where I love now for such a nice bike.

[@BikesofRye]

Where are you living now? Good to know you would buy again I think that's the most defining factor for a motorcycle review

[@sjaisie]

Awesome summary, very accurate. One place I get a different experience from you is the "attention" the bike receives. I came to this bike from a 2011 Speed Triple which was red, and I think looked awesome. Now that bike grabbed lots of attention and always had a crowd around it, looking and pointing/judging. However, my 2020 765 RS doesn't really get the same attention. People seem to look at it and are like, meh! For me the most important thing is how the bike makes me feel and I am not concerned whatsoever what others think. I would also be interested in hearing how you get on with the media mod. I use a GoPro hero 9 with windslayer foam and it does a good job, but the media mod should definitely be an improvement. Keep up the good work!

[@BikesofRye]

To be fair the colour isn't the loudest option but the belief I get is that it just appeals to the masses. Mine also sounds louder than normal 🤣 As for the media mod it still isn't perfect as you can tell in the video there is 'clipping'

[@PetroHead]

The media mod is shody.. once the weather gets warm, it overheats and sound doesn’t record. Instead, buy the old school mic adapter along with an artman (Amazon US) housing.. thank me later 😉

I was stuck between 765RS and the new tunono 660 and I'm now swaying more towards the 765RS great video mate 👍

[@BikesofRye]

Well if you consider the price of the Tuono... it just demonstrates how very well priced the 765rs is

[@rudolphcarr]

Tuono is too down on power. I would look at the 765 RS and 890 R. The KTM definitely would have been in the running for me if they were available at the time.

[@TheRealChetManley]

Nice video! Thought I’d share a few tips. I’m 90 kilos and I went with stiffer springs in the big piston forks. Makes a massive difference. Best is to find a suspension tuner in your area. For the fly screen visor, I’m 5-10 and experienced worse buffeting with it, so I took mine off. Lastly, I can’t tell if you have tank pads but I have the tech-spec and love them. Feel way more connected to the bike.

[@BikesofRye]

Thanks for the feedback I do plan on having the bike set up for my weight cheers

[@brianperry]

I came from a CB650 to a Street Triple 675R ....The Striple is in a league of its own as far as I'm concerned. Its light, incredibly nimble, smooth, even 'poodling' along in higher gears, as you say it doesn't 'chug' ...Sounds great....(Like the growl on your 765)....whats not to like. I have to agree with one of your other contributors though about one aspect...The colour scheme is a bit uninspiring..understated perhaps!...My Bike is Black 'n' Red which is far superior.

[@LDrift]

Hi Brian, how do you find the ergonomics and comfort of your Street Triple in comparison to the CB650? I’m looking for something a bit more powerful at the moment but don’t want to sacrifice to much comfort on the longer trips. Cheers mate.

[@brianperry]

@@LDrift I owned the earlier incarnation the CB650F I found the transmission sounded and felt very harsh but ergonomically it was fine so I cant really comment on the new version However, I prefer my Striple. Both have the 'sit up and beg' stance, and adjustment of the handlebars/controls can make a big difference. Comfort wise on the 'bum' is okay. If you watch any review about the 675 or the later 765 you will see the Street Triple has a unmatched reputation in power, comfort and being a very nimble motorcycle in its class.... buy one, you won't be disappointed..Ride safe.. greetings from España

[@LDrift]

I also own a 2020 765 Street triple. I have to disagree with you on the mid range power. There is more than enough mid range power. I would not recommend this bike to a newer rider. It will get you in trouble! It will easily power wheelie in first and second gear no problem. There are plenty of videos on KZbin of people test, riding this motorcycle and gushing on the mid range power. Other than that, well, the video, I was nice to see another 765er!

[@emc_andy6729]

The 765RS is a full on track bike. I have a Moto2 765 for the road. [I had thought of using the Moto 2 as a track bike but that is too nice and 'expensive' to drop/crash.] The street triple to 765RS track bike took me about 2 months to build.

My previous bike was an mt-10, i sold it because it started to feel a bit much on the streets of a crowded city.

Does street triple has any issues about the reasons i listed because i want to get one as my next bike and i mainly ride in the city.

[@BikesofRye]

Ok so the 765RS is very capable but doesn't feel too much in the city as it is very docile at low speeds. Fuel consumption for me is 50mpg. No heat build up from engine to be honest either. I would say the bar end mirrors could be tricky with filtering but you need to be aware of them and adapt

I have the same model, year and colour and have owned the bike since September 2020 from new. I have just recently put it through its first service at 600 miles. My question is how do you find the quickshifter? I feel mine could be a bit smoother than is it. Does it get smoother the more miles you put on? Or maybe I need to rev higher when changing gear? Would like to know how yours is or anyone else's as I have heard different reports, cheers

[@BikesofRye]

I've actually commented on a video about the quick shifter it is very good but not perfect... sometimes in higher gears there will be a noticeable pause which is rev range dependant. Also don't use the down blipper at slow speeds and low rpm

Emissions are not tested on motorcycle and test is carried out after three year old. Its highly unlikely it will be an issue with regards to noise level but if so you can always pop the standard exhaust back on it is so very easy to change can take you 10minutes

@@BikesofRye so when the throttle is in its neutral position, there’s about a 5mm gap in the throttle tube housing that allows the throttle itself to rotate forwards (shouldn’t have said backwards before) into this gap.
