Long live the sport
The Triumph Street Triple RS is a sharp sports motorcycle. Therefore, the initially questioned saying of the racing machine fits for the road. It sets the right accents for the sports driver with the foolproof Öhlins suspension, the appropriate knee closure and knee angle as well as this motor, which is always called to higher. But you have to be able to afford it. This is not even due to the entry price of 11,850 euros, where a Kawasaki Z 900 comparable in the data is available at the dealership with less than 10,000.
No, if you want to have the Triumph Street Triple RS and drive all year round, if you want to take a passenger further than to the dredging lake without listening to the suffering after the end of the journey – you will not be able to avoid the purchase of a second motorcycle. And this, despite the fact that it is actually present and suitable for everyday use.
