The updated and upgraded Triumph Street Triple 765 hits a sweet spot in the sporty motorcycle market. It’s comfortable enough for commuting and light-duty touring, cool enough to hold its head high at bike nights, and fast enough for scorching trackdays. With prices starting at $9,995, it offers undeniable value for a sporting naked streetbike.  

The Street Triple has been one of our favorite sports roadsters since its 2007 inception as an offshoot of the 675cc Daytona. Surprisingly lively and always playful, it was like a more exotic and more stimulating Suzuki SV650, another longtime fave that punches above its weight.

The Street Triple R (left) retails for $9,995, while the RS version (right) demands a $2,600 premium.

The Street Triple 765 arrived in 2017 with a power-to-weight ratio that would humble the original 885cc Speed Triple, the Street’s older brother and one of the godfathers of the naked sportbike genre.

The revised Street Triple was a bigger, more capable machine that came in three variants: S, R, and RS, with outputs ranging from 111 hp to 121 hp.

Triumph launched its first Street Triple 765 in southern Spain, so it was fitting that we were invited back to Spain to sample the new version on Andalusian roads and the famous Jerez racetrack.  

Triumph Street Triple 765 Revamped 

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS
The Street Triple remained entirely composed at the racetrack thanks to class-leading electronics and an excellent chassis.

Categorized in the U.S. as a 2024 model, the Street Triple gets an extensive overhaul this year. It enjoys many welcome upgrades and is available in three versions.  

Along with the R and RS we tested, Triumph is offering a special Moto2 Edition to celebrate its involvement as the engine supplier in MotoGP’s junior category since 2019. It’s basically an RS but with clip-on handlebars, carbon bodywork, and an Öhlins fork, and it’s limited to 765 units for each of its two colorways. Retailing for $15,395, as of press time it’s sold out in most global markets but is still available in America.

Triumph reps boasted about how they took lessons learned in the Moto2 program and applied them to the streetbike. The bore and stroke of the inline-Triple remain unchanged, but most internals have been changed, including pistons, con-rods, camshafts, and valves. The piston crowns and combustion chamber are now fully machined for optimal flow and combustion, combining for a higher 13.25:1 compression ratio. The intake uses trumpets that are 20mm shorter for a stronger pull up top, and the exhaust now has just one catalyzer instead of two.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS
The Street Triple proved to be a willing accomplice on unfamiliar Spanish backroads.

The result, according to Triumph, is an increase in power from the midrange on up. The R version claims 118 hp that arrives at 11,500 rpm, 500 revs earlier than the previous motor’s 116 ponies. The higher-spec RS variant delivers 128 hp at 12,000 rpm, a jump of 7 hp from the previous model. Torque on all models is bumped by 4% to a creditable 59 lb-ft.  

New to the Street Triple is the addition of an IMU that enables precise traction-control modulation and cornering ABS. Also coming standard and cued to the IMU is one of the most seamless up/down quickshifters we’ve sampled, which uses a pressure-sensitive actuator rather than a basic switch.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS
The RS includes bar-end mirrors instead of the R’s more traditional mirrors atop the handlebar.

Styling remains similar but freshened, with a new, sharply creased fuel tank with integrated side panels and a stubby new stainless-steel muffler tucked in next to the gullwing aluminum swingarm. The distinctive dual headlights with LED eyebrows are topped with a mini wind deflector that’s more integrated than on previous models. Scrolling LED turnsignals are a nice upmarket touch.  

The chassis remains the same but tweaks to ride heights have modestly sharpened the steering geometry to aid agility. A shuffling of transmission and final-drive ratios has slightly shortened up the overall gearing for snappier engine responses.

Is R Enough? 

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R
Tall mirrors identify this Street Triple as an R version.

The R version of the Street Triple makes a good case for saving money over its pricier RS brother. It very well could be the most appealing sub-$10,000 sporty bike on the market.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R
The Street Triple’s new exhaust is more plainly visible without the chin fairing of the RS.

It would be unfair to cast the R as a “budget bike,” as it includes a plethora of desirable features. An aluminum frame helps keep weight to a tidy 417 lb wet, fully adjustable Showa suspension can be dialed in to personal preferences, and a Brembo brake package with radial-mount monoblock calipers provides secure speed bleeding through braided steel lines. Tire valves directed to the sides are another pleasing accoutrement. 

Ergonomics are pleasantly familiar, placing a rider in a modestly leaned-over forward cant and now with a half-inch wider handlebar to aid agility. Long-legged riders may feel a bit cramped because of the high footpeg position that supplies a generous amount of lean angle before they begin dragging. The seat is reasonably comfortable and roomy, but short riders will whine about the 32.5-inch seat height. A lower accessory seat reduces height by 1 inch.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R
The Street Triple R, priced at $10K, is an undeniable value. Note the mirror positioning compared to the RS.

GEAR UP

While the RS gets a vivid 5-inch TFT instrument panel, the R gets a more basic LCD screen augmented by a diminutive TFT panel. It’s perfectly adequate if not visually brilliant. Both can be connected to phones via Bluetooth.  

The star of the Street Triple show is its compact three-cylinder engine that emits some of the most pleasing sounds ever trumpeted by a motorcycle – a mix of inline-Four scream tempered by a hint of twin-cylinder thrum. In addition to being delightfully sonorous and pleasingly smooth, it’s blessed with a wide swell of power that can easily carry a higher gear than typically optimum yet lunges for horizons with a howling top-end climax. Torque peaks at 5,500 rpm, which is below the halfway point of its rev range.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R
The Street Triple R has everything you need for an entertaining streetbike – except wind protection.

New throttle maps for the three ride modes (Rain, Road, and Sport) are finely tuned to deliver precise and user-friendly throttle responses. Traction and wheelie control settings are tied into each ride mode. The “Rider” mode can be tailored to personal preferences. A slip-assist clutch eases lever effort and sloppy downshifts.

Handling is another Street Triple strong point, now with minimally less rake and trail. It quickly bends into corners and provides confidence-inspiring feedback. The suspensions of the bikes on our street ride were set up to be compliant on the damp and occasionally bumpy Spanish backroads, but preload and damping (both compression and rebound) can be dialed up to suit rider weights and inclinations.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R
The Street Triple R is classy, thrilling, and capable.

The RS version has higher-end brake components, but there’s nothing wrong with the R’s for street usage. Brembo M4.32 calipers bite on 310mm rotors up front and provide strong power and the security of cornering ABS. The brake lever next to the Nissin axial master cylinder has a wide adjustment range to suit hands of all sizes. Application of the front brake subtly engages the rear brake to help settle the chassis during corner entries, but it’s entirely seamless and can be disabled in Rider mode settings.

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS On the Track 

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS
The Street Triple demonstrated its sporting prowess at the Circuito de Jerez MotoGP track.

The RS version of the Street Triple includes everything good about the R and dials it up to a more premium and slightly faster experience. Stylewise, you’ll notice the addition of a chin fairing, a cowl on the passenger seat, and a stitched seat. The RS also includes a deflector in front of the rear sprocket to prevent errant items or digits from entering, an item unappreciated until it’s needed. Ask me how I know.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS
New engine internals help bring output to a claimed 128 hp on the Street Triple RS. Also new the muffler, now with a single catalyzer instead of a pair of them.

The RS’s cockpit is graced by TFT instrumentation that includes a lap-timer function, along with more comprehensive switch cubes. Unlike the R, the RS can be fitted with cruise control as an option. Heated grips are another option, which were gratefully fitted to the bikes on our chilly street ride. Bar-end mirrors replace the ones mounted atop the handlebar on the R. 

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS
Knee down but not dragging footpegs demonstrates the cornering clearance of the Street Triple.

While engine internals are unchanged from the R, different ECU settings endow it with 10 extra ponies at its top end, to 128 hp at 12,000 rpm. A higher-end Showa fork damps bumps up front, while an Öhlins shock does duty out back. Sticky Pirelli SuperCorsas replace the R’s ContiRoad rubber.  

Riding a naked sportbike on a MotoGP racetrack seemed incongruous before I arrived at Circuito de Jerez, but that proved not to be the case. The Street Triple RS was fully capable of cutting quick laps, suffering only a lack of wind protection while traveling at speeds reaching 140 mph at the end of the back straightaway.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS
Following the tire tracks of MotoGP riders at Circuito de Jerez was a rare treat on a streetbike.

The RS adds a Track setting to the R’s ride modes, which disables the linked brakes and cornering ABS for a purer riding experience. Track mode also ups the limits of traction control, wheelie control, and ABS interventions. Kudos to Triumph for enabling high limits for the electronic nannies on track. Unlike some systems that intervene too early when riding aggressively, I wasn’t tempted to disable any of the RS’s safety nets. The TC indicator lamp frequently flashed on the TFT, but intervention was so smooth that I mostly wouldn’t have otherwise noticed it.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS
The Street Triple proves you don’t need a faired sportbike to cut quick laps on track.

The bike’s handling prowess is enhanced by sharper steering geometry due to a slightly taller rear ride height, tightening the rake angle to 23.2 degrees from the R’s 23.7 with a marginal decrease in trail. The bike proves to be agile but without any hint of instability, even when the front tire is dancing just above the tarmac during acceleration events out of lower-speed corners. It’s notable that no steering damper is fitted and isn’t needed.

GEAR UP

Although I have no complaints about the R’s brakes for street use, I was happy to have the RS’s higher-spec units at the racetrack. The front brakes begin with a radial-style Brembo master cylinder that includes an adjustable lever ratio as well as an adjustable span feeding Brembo’s class-leading Stylema monoblock calipers. They are nothing short of stellar. Oddly, the lovely black Brembo MCS lever’s adjustment range doesn’t bring it as close to the grip as the plain-looking silver lever on the R.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R RS
The hills are alive with the sound of music from the Street Triple’s sonorous three-cylinder engine.

The RS proved to be far more worthy of racetrack exploration than I had imagined. Its versatile and punchy motor allowed a choice of gears in corners, so it could be tractored out smartly or revved out until it screamed. Throttle modulation is excellent, and its quickshifter is a wonderful aid on track. Cornering clearance is bountiful, so you’ll need to be a bit of a track hero to drag its pegs.

What’s Not to Like About the Triumph Street Triple 765? 

A sign of motorcycle excellence is when a reviewer must search for things to complain about, and that’s the case here. Really tall or really short riders might complain about the rider triangle layout, but it fit me well – I’d be comfortable enough to use it for light-duty touring and tolerate the wind blast or find a fashionable windscreen.  

We know it’s a superb bike when my biggest complaint is that I couldn’t clearly see the shift lights while revving the bike out at the track. Unless you’re cutting hot laps at a racetrack, this is a complete non-issue. A larger fuel tank would be nice, but a 150-mile range isn’t a deal-breaker.  

See all of Rider‘s Triumph Motorcycle coverage here.

The combination of a sonorous and thrilling motor, low weight, admirable electronics, and a playful character places the Street Triple near the top of my most desirable streetbikes. It’s more debonair than the 3-cylinder Yamahas (MT-09, XSR900) and will blow away a KTM 790 Duke. Just as thrilling and likely a bit more agile is the 890 Duke R, but the KTM retails up at $12,949 and lacks the Triumph’s soul-stirring soundtrack.  

Which brings me back to the Street Triple R. It’s astonishing that a semi-exotic and highly refined motorcycle with such outsized performance capabilities can be had for less than $10K. At a $2,600 saving over the admittedly cooler RS, I’d say it’s one of the best values in motorcycling.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS
Along with the chin fairing, the RS version of the Street Triple includes a seat cowl for a sportier appearance.

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 Range | First Look Review

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 range
L-R: 2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 Moto2 Edition, Street Triple 765 RS, and Street Triple R

Triumph Motorcycles has announced the new 2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 range, featuring a significantly updated Street Triple R, a new Street Triple RS, and an exclusive limited-run Street Triple 765 Moto2 Edition, which Triumph says is “the closest you can get to a Moto2 race bike for the road.” Only 765 of the Moto2 Edition bikes will be made.

At the Oct. 18 virtual press conference unveiling the new bikes, Triumph’s head of brand management, Miles Perkins, said the Street Triple, which was originally developed from the company’s race-winning Daytona 675, has had distinctive character ever since its introduction in 2007.

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS
2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS

“From the start, the bike played a part in redefining what a middleweight sports bike should be about,” Perkins said. “Over the years, there have been a number of significant updates from Triumph, all of which have been about making the bike better, faster, more powerful, and lighter. And I think I wouldn’t be too demonstrative to say there are not many bikes in the world of motorcycling that have gotten better, lighter, more powerful – particularly names as well-regarded as the Street Triple.”

All three models in the new 2024 Street Triple 765 range will still feature a liquid-cooled 765cc inline-Triple, which was bumped up from 675cc with the 2017 Street Triple lineup, but Triumph says engine upgrades derived directly from the Moto2 race engine program have resulted in a significant step up in performance on the range.

Related Story: 2017 Triumph Street Triple RS | First Ride Review

Triumph’s most powerful Street Triple range to date, the 2024 Street Triple R engine makes a claimed 118 hp (up from 116 hp) and 59 lb-ft of torque at 9,500 rpm (up from 57 lb-ft at 9,400 rpm). The Street Triple RS and Moto2 take it up another notch, making 128 hp.

Other lessons from the Moto2 race engine program that have been applied to the 2024 Street Triple range include a compression ratio that has been raised from 12.65:1 to 13.25:1 – an increase of 4.7%. Additionally, new pistons, con-rods and gudgeon pins are matched to new, optimized combustion chambers for an increased cylinder pressure limit and ultimately, more power, and the new valves and camshafts are said to give increased valve lift for improved intake, combustion, and exhaust efficiency. The gearbox has also been revised to include shorter gear ratios for faster acceleration.

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 Range: ‘The Perfect Performance Naked Bike Set-up’

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS

In the media statement announcing the new Street Triple range, Triumph said that new technology and high-specification components, combined with an updated chassis, make the range “the best handling ever and the perfect performance naked bike set-up.”

At the press conference, Triumph’s global product marketing manager, James Wood, said the specifications of the chassis and suspension have “always been about agility, precision, and having a bike that you really connect with intuitively … and give the best possible ride for each of these three models, with the R being more road focused, the RS adding even more advanced performance and track-focused capability, and the Moto2 Edition, which has the most track-focused capability ever for a Street Triple.”

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765

The 2024 Street Triple 765 R and RS both benefit from the new generation’s more focused and commanding riding position, the result of a new handlebar that is 0.47 inch wider. The race-inspired Moto2 Edition goes one step further with clip-on handlebars that are 3.15 inches lower and 1.97 inches farther forward than the R and RS. This change, combined with the bike’s unique high-specification Öhlins fork, is said to deliver even more race bike poise and front end feel. Both the RS and the Moto2 Edition also feature revised geometry with a steeper rake and a raised back end for nimble, faster turning.

Seat height is 32.52 inches on the Street Triple R, 32.91 inches on the Street Triple RS, and 33.03 inches for the Moto2 Edition, and a new accessory low seat option with 3D net technology for enhanced comfort can be fitted to further reduce the height by 1.1 inches on all models. For the Street Triple RS and Moto2 Edition, Triumph dealers can additionally lower the seat by 0.39 inch if required through the implementation of a dedicated rear suspension linkage adaption, which when delivered in combination with the accessory low seat provides a very accessible height of 31.42 inches on the RS and 31.54 inches on the Moto2 Edition.

Braking is linked on the new Street Triples, with the Street Triple R featuring Brembo M4.32 4-piston radial monoblock calipers at the front and a Brembo single piston sliding caliper at the rear. The Street Triple 765 RS and Moto2 Edition are fitted with Brembo Stylema 4-piston radial monobloc front calipers with twin 310mm floating discs. A matching Brembo MCS span and ratio adjustable lever reportedly gives even more control and finesse, and a Brembo single piston sliding caliper keeps things in check at the rear.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS

As far as suspension, components from Showa and Öhlins are fully adjustable for preload, compression, and rebound.

The Street Triple 765 R comes fitted with a Showa 41mm inverted, separate-function Big Piston fork and a Showa piggyback reservoir rear monoshock. The Street Triple RS is equipped with a Showa 41mm inverted Big Piston fork and an Öhlins piggyback reservoir rear shock, and the Moto2 Edition reflects its track-ready capability with a 43mm inverted Öhlins front fork and an Öhlins piggyback reservoir rear shock. Front wheel travel on all models is 4.53 inches, with 5.17-in rear wheel travel on the RS and Moto2 Edition, and 5.26 inches on the Street Triple R.

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765

The Street Triple R is shod with Continental ContiRoad tires, and the RS and Moto2 Edition get Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP V3 tires.

Triumph said the Street Triple’s gullwing swingarm has been developed for “excellent torsional stiffness with lateral flexibility, maximizing stability at higher speeds for enhanced rider confidence while the pivot position provides natural resistance to compressing the rear shock absorber under hard acceleration.”

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R
2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 R

The company said this translates into tight corner exits and precise, predictable chassis behavior, and results in class-defining performance when combined with the bike’s lightweight chassis and incredible power-to-weight ratio.

The Street Triple R has a wet weight of 417 lb, with the RS and Moto2 Edition coming in at 414 lb. Wood said the power-to-weight ratio has “always been key.”

“The attributes that make this such a great, precise bike for the track also make it an easy and intuitive bike to ride on the road, for any rider and any skill level.”

The new Street Triple 765 range features the latest generation of optimized cornering ABS on all three new models. The system features a new ABS modulator with an integrated IMU for more refined ABS control. Tailored settings integrated into each of the riding modes alter the level of ABS intervention, while a track-focused tune is also present for riders seeking minimal ABS intervention.

Optimized cornering traction control supported by an IMU that continuously calculates the lean angle to ensure the optimum slip rate and torque control is also now standard on all three Street Triple 765 models. Four independently adjustable levels of intervention can be selected to suit riding styles and road conditions, including a track-focused tune with minimal intervention as well as the ability to turn it off altogether for experienced riders in high-grip racetrack situations.

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765

The new Street Triple 765 R features four ride modes – Road, Rain, Sport and Rider-configurable – while the RS and Moto2 Edition have an additional Track mode designed to be as unintrusive as possible while still providing the reassurance that the electronic systems are there to help in unexpected situations.

The Road, Sport, and Track modes have new, more dynamic throttle maps that Triumph says provide an even more responsive feel. Rain mode restricts the engine power to 98.6 hp while increasing the level of ABS and traction control intervention for better feel and control in wet conditions. 

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS

The new Street Triple 756 RS and Moto2 Edition feature 5-inch full-color TFT instrumentation with ergonomically optimized switch cubes and a five-way joystick. The MyTriumph connectivity system is pre-enabled and provides turn-by-turn navigation, phone control, and music operation via the accessory-fit Bluetooth module and free My Triumph app. A lap timer is included on the RS and Moto2 Edition for track use.

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS

The 2024 Street Triple 765 range also features the latest generation of Triumph Shift Assist. Upshifts can be made without closing the throttle, and downshifts can be made without the use of the clutch or the need to blip the throttle to match the gear and engine speeds. A slip/assist clutch and front wheel lift control are also standard on all three models.

The 2024 Street Triple generation features new racing-derived ‘765’ sporty graphics and all new bodywork.

The new 3.96-gal. fuel tank has integrated side panels with an angular design that aligns with the sharper radiator cowls, further complemented by a new headlight finisher that also incorporates the air intake. Additionally, there’s a new color-coded belly pan for the RS, which is available as an accessory option for the R.

The rear end of the new Street Triple has a sporty, upswept design lending to a focused, nose-down attitude. The RS features a color-coded seat cowl with an interchangeable passenger seat. The new silencer shape adds to the Street Triple’s aggressive stance.  

2024 Triumph Street Triple 765 RS

The Moto2 Edition features lightweight carbon fiber bodywork, including the front fender, side panels, headlight finisher, and belly pan, and each of these limited-edition motorcycles has a machined top yoke with its number etched onto it.
