The sturdy good looks of the Triumph Street triple R may come as a warning to what lies below the tank.

The sturdy good looks of the Triumph Street triple R may come as a warning to what lies below the tank.

Triumph have created the ultimate in finely honed, thrilling supersport performance packaged in a stunning streetfighter style, with their Street Triple R.

To start with, there was no better bike than their Street Triple to base it on. It already had the advantage with a class leading engine and awesome, focused looks. 

For the Street Triple R we've added high-end adjustable suspension and radially-mounted four-piston brakes, sharpened the geometry and given it a few visual tweaks that tell you this bike is different.

Nothing else comes close to the Street Triple R. Today's three cylinder is smoother, revvier and more powerful than a twin but has the individuality and soundtrack that no four can come close to.

As always, the torque curve on the Street Triple R is exhilarating from low revs to high. Triumph made the gearbox in the Street Triple R with a taller first gear than before so you can make more of the engine's depth of torque for smoother urban riding.

Why not visit East Coast Motorcycles and see what they have done with their Street Triple, the bespoke accessories and other kit is very tantalizing to say the least. Take the Street Triple for a test ride and see for yourself what they really mean.

Call East Coast Motorcycles on 031 566 3024 or just pop into their showroom at 10 Meridian Drive, Umhlanga Ridge and ride out smiling.
