First Impression Ride of the 2019 Triumph Street Triple R!

[@yammienoob]

I'm not kidding, I'm giving this bike away along with a KTM Duke 390 and a Yamaha XSR700. GO HERE: yammienoob.co

[@rontrose]

Yammie Noob look forward to what you think. Best giveaway yet!! Love the channel. I have the 2018 Street Triple R. I love it. Best all round street bike I’ve ever had!! It’s my 6th Triumph and my 2nd Triple. I have a 2002 Sprint RS as well but the chassis/motor in this bike is just sublime!! I dialed my suspension back a bit. It’s just a blast of a bike. It’s overkill for sure but that’s the point!! Nice work Papa (says the 52 year old).

[@GGKazmenkov]

This is exactly my beginner bike, papa Yam - I feel super happy after a year riding it, so don’t be afraid giving it up to a beginner.

Is there something wrong with the link? I can’t seem to pull it up, says error?! I want that triple street!

[@skykur]

I own this bike, 2018 model. Never getting rid of it, it’s the perfect bike. Just added a sc-project sc1r exhaust. Gives it a deep throaty sound that perfectly compliments the triple engine. Whoever wins this is a lucky dude

[@moabushahba4687]

Is it a slip on?

[@flip_moto]

I bought my '16 triple because of yammie's love for the 3-cylinder motor in the Daytona. Best decision ever. I was dead set on a Ducati Monster, until I tried the triple and fell in love with the throttle response, flickability and mid torque grunt.

[@sandeshjadhav8804]

which monster did you try, i like the street triple, but oh my gawd the looks and grunt on the monster

[@flip_moto]

@@sandeshjadhav8804 while cross shopping I test rode a 797 and 821. rode my friends older sr4 with way too many miles. I just recently rode an older '13 796 which was way better than the 797 and 821. Now I want one of those but a little harder to come by.

I have the 2019 RS and it's 100% the best road bike I've ever had.

[@InTransit8911]

Hell I've got a 2016 Street Triple R and it's the best road bike I've ever had. I cross shopped against and FZ-07 and an FZ-09 and I'm so glad I went with the Triumph.

[@EthanEW]

@@InTransit8911 I did the exact same! I was originally going to go with an R6 but I wasn't happy with the banding of it. Sat on an MT-07 and MT-09 and just felt it was missing something. Sat on the RS and that torque had me nearly ripped off and I loved it, dealers sealed the deal by slapping a full system arrow on it too.

[@EthanEW]

@mirlin235 I’ve got the quick up on mine, fine by me because I enjoy blipping down, took it on track not too long ago, fucking amazing out there - definitely had some practice from some not so suitable road riding too 😂 Because the arrow can I’ve got is made stock it had to meet emissions & noise standards etc so I’m thinking of getting a new slip on.

[@CyclesandThings]

I do mid-range pulls all the time on mine, with stock exhaust it sounds very beefy for a 765 but a nice slip-on would sound just fine. If you hammer hard on the brakes, they’re excellent, especially with ABS and dependent on which rider mode you have. Definitely not a beginner’s bike, but this bike is probably the most fun I’ve had in a long time. I like to refer to this bike as “Business in the front, party in the back.”

[@Myself6M]

It is my first proper bike Yams! I absolutely love it to the point of obsession! It is a bit mad on track mode indeed, but on street mode it is absolutely fine (not too scary) as long as you have some throttle control (if you don't the front end can go a bit out of control). I am in Europe. I took my A licence test (for open class bikes) in June past summer and I bought it a moth after. Never scared me too much and, I wouldn't say that I ride like it a grandpa either! It is a very well behaved bike and it will do what you ask it to, as long as you are sensible and you ask it to do reasonable things that reflect your skill level!

i know this is an older video, but you helped me choose my bike, i bought that exact one a week ago. Its a BLAST and an amazing ride.

[@josescheuren901]

I own a Street Triple, this exact model in particular, and it's the best city bike by miles In a 1000 or more it's too much for the road and often way too stiff Street Triple R is light and nimble, not too many mods to kill yourself doing either. I installed a Two Brothers to lose 15lbs and not pay 700+ on what would be mild performance increases. Install a small visor at he front, lose the tag holder for something attached to the tail, new slip on, and keep the Rosso 3's

[@A-FrameWedge]

I had a new 2014 street triple r 675. Didn’t like the high gearing in first gear, improved after adding teeth to rear sprocket and removing a couple of teeth to front sprocket. Handled so good and sounded great with a ScProject full exhaust. But ultimately went back to FZ-09 because I loved the engine so much.

[@asidlab5410]

My dad went out and bought a STR because of this video , he loves it to pieces

[@Ledfndr]

dbw throttle feel, at least in the auto racing world, can be tuned by changing return spring firmness. The delay most people assume modern dbw has is non-existent; the real issue is the throttle hand/foot feel, and effort, associated with a throttle's movement resistance through its travel range. Most people have been "trained" on more firmly sprung cable throttles than what most oem dbw's use, as the springs are no longer needed to help close the butterfly in addition to returning the grip/pedal. The best feeling oem dbw sensors are external units, mounted away from the grip or pedal, and driven via cable. These external ones are also more able to be modded for a heavier spring. The weakest soggiest ones are where the sensor and spring are housed within the pedal or grip.

[@guyedwards6696]

Great review Yam, this is my bike. I agree with your review and to confirm the ABS is great and saved me once, and used it a couple of other times. Though brakes not as sharp or as planted when stopping as the Speed triple. It's a whole lotta fun riding it daily.

[@crossplanetriple]

If you are the lucky person to win the Triumph Street Triple, please for the love of god, don't sell it. KEEP IT.

[@DouglasKnudsen]

I've got the RS version 2018. For the little bit more $, so worth it. Better breaks...better tires...extra mode... better suspension. Oh, and no dorkie mirrors. I don't really see anything lacking in around town driving.

[@ryanoliver9131]

The rs is a great bike. I went with the r only because it felt perfect to me in the lrh variant. Plus I’m nowhere near even able to take full advantage of the r model.

[@dappodan1dappodan12]

I have the 2019 rs I was about to pull the trigger on a KTM 790 after having obsessed over it for ages, then a colleague who had previously sold his 675 Street triple but hadn't really got over it, said at least test ride the street triple, I rode the bike within 300 metres from the dealership I knew it was the one. It's still easily outside of my riding capabilities (first big bike) but every day I'm learning and enjoying it even more

[@jaxongerace9664]

You know the triumphs are god tier, mine caught my eye as I was perusing hayabusa's, but yammie you sold me on it n I gotta thank you. It might be a lil too fast for me but I've genuinley had the best time of my life on it.

From first feel out of 5bikes at the Honda day and Kawa z750 for a long ride this was the best. Judging from 5min with one. First stoppie was an accident second wasn't. Every thing comes together perfect except rear brake, Id need to adjust it a bit. Just not if you are over 1.86or so. My 194cm cousin barely fits

[@RutgerMulder]

The Street Triple is a perfect beginner bike for countries where you don't get your license as easy as in the US.

[@ryanoliver9131]

But if you have to start on 150cc the street triple wouldn’t be a beginner bike would it. I mean you would have other bikes before it. Let’s not act like other countries don’t have bike accidents they might have fewer but it still happens. Nothing wrong with smaller bikes but some don’t want to have to keep buying new bikes to upgrade. Most aren’t going to keep even a 400 for more than a year.

Just control yourself. People can start on any bike as long as they ride at their skill level. It is good to start on a smaller bike because it will help mask mistakes with throttle etc but I got rid of my 250 after about 2 months. Get the bike that you want. Anyway ride safe

[@danielferreirapt]

Marik , after test-riding both I say STriple hands down. Both great bikes and fun to ride, but due to the KTM’s riding position you don’t feel in full control of the bike as you do on the STriple, also the throttle response is so much better on the Triumph... Test them both

[@JCook-dx5pf]

If it has rider modes, what's to keep a beginner from running it in Rain Mode to max out the assistance and detuned the power curve until they're comfortable? Also: if the Brembos on the S3-R are anything like the brakes on the Jags and Land Rovers that I fix for a living, then 1. They'll improve noticeably after about 60 miles, after they've completed a few heat cycles as a bedding-in process. And 2. They'll need a good warm-up to really show their action.
