Overview
The Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS is a naked motorcycle produced from 2021 to 2024. For 2024, its naturally aspirated 1,160 cm³ in-line three-cylinder engine makes 177 hp (132 kW) at 10,750 rpm and 124.8 Nm of torque at 9,000 rpm; wet weight is 198 kg.
Peak power arrives at high rpm, while peak torque comes at 9,000 rpm, so the engine rewards revving. The 830 mm seat and 198 kg wet weight can make slow-speed maneuvering more demanding for some riders. Its 15.5 L tank gives a calculated range of about 242 km. Adjustable Öhlins suspension at both ends lets riders tune preload and damping, and the slipper clutch helps calm the rear wheel during hard downshifts.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Adjustable Öhlins suspension
Preload, rebound, and compression damping adjustments are available at both ends, giving riders scope to tune the suspension.
Slipper clutch
The slipper function helps stabilize the rear wheel during aggressive downshifts.
ABS Brembo brakes
ABS-equipped Brembo brakes use twin 320 mm front discs for strong braking capability.
Things to consider
Limited tank range
The calculated range of about 242 km means fuel stops come sooner on longer rides.
Tall seat
At 830 mm, the seat may make it harder for shorter riders to plant both feet at a stop.
Chain final drive
The chain needs periodic cleaning, lubrication, and adjustment.
