Triumph Speed Triple 1050 S - 1050 RS - 1200 RS How do they compare?
I'm the owner of a 2016 Triumph Speed Triple 1050 S and I’ve become a big fan of the Speed and Street Triple range.
When I heard Triumph were producing a new redesigned Speed Triple for 2021, I was pretty excited to see what they would come up with, and of course, I couldn’t wait to take the new Speed Triple 1200 RS out for a test ride
But since I bought my bike I've wondered how different is the 2020 model Speed Triple 1050 RS to ride compared to my 1050 S.
Thanks to my friends at Triumph Essex, I’ve been able to ride all three bikes and tell you how these bikes compare to each other.
In Part One I look at the history of the Triumph Speed Triple since its launch in 1994 and show you around my 2016 Speed Triple 1050 S as well a look at my riding buddy's Elyske's Street Triple 675 R.
Thanks to Triumph UK for use of their images and to Triumph Essex for allowing me to test ride the 2020 Speed Triple 1050 RS and 2021 Speed Triple1200 RS

I've got a speedy S on a 67 plate. I'm pleased with it. This is my third triple since I came back to riding bikes again. My last triple you had to adjust the throttle cable but now it's good triumph upgraded to a ride by wire system. As long as you ride your S it will always put a smile on your face everytime you ride it. Enjoy and safe riding.

Great video Phil. I’ve got the 1050 S on a 2018 so final model of 1050. Be very interested to see if you can notice any difference in the suspension on the 1050 RS on the road for your next video. Reason I bought the S was largely down to colour scheme - I just love the jet black on the S and dislike the mat finish and stripes on the RS although accept its the better bike in theory from the specifications on suspension and lean sensitive TC. I also only ride on the road. Your bike looks amazing. Where did you get the Union Jack emblem/ sticker as looks fantastic.

@TheAdventuresofPhilJones 3 года назад

Thanks for the kind comments and sharing your thoughts on your bike. I will definitely be comparing suspicion and ride in my next video. You’re not the only one who isn’t totally impressed with Triumph’s limited options on colour schemes. The bike actually had the Union Jack fitted on the bike when I bought it. Although I went over the bike removing stickers, I really liked this one and it had to stay! I’ll see what I can find and let you know! 😁👍

Beautiful choice and bike. I also want to get one and very likely will buy one. Would you say it’s on the expensive side for maintenance?

@TheAdventuresofPhilJones 2 года назад

Thanks! Good luck with your search for a bike and hopefully a Speed Triple. Good question 🤔 There are certain maintenance services like the 12,000 miles service which isn’t cheap, I’m not sure exactly but I believe it’s around £700 from a main dealer. From what I’ve heard most manufacturers, ie. Yamaha, Suzuki etc. would charge a similar amount. I and my ridding buddy who has a Street Triple have used a mechanic who works from home but he did used to work for Triumph and knows what he’s doing. Maybe phone around and ask on social media if anyone can recommend a mechanic in your area, that’s what I did. Perhaps I’ll make a video about my 12k service? Good luck and let me know what you get! 😁👊

I've got a 2010 Street Triple 675 and im wondering about moving up to a Speed 1050. The turning circle on my bike is also pants. I was quite shocked but I just got used to it. What made you go for the S over the R? I'm guessing the Showa suspension on your bike is fully adjustable?

@TheAdventuresofPhilJones Год назад

Have you seen my video about my besties 2011 Street Triple? What year Speed Triple are you thinking about? Yes the Showa suspension is adjustable, I made sure mine was back to the factory default which is set up for road and it works great for me.

Thanks for that. After have been testing almost every option here in Brazil, except the 2016/17 1050R wich is rare here, while planning my next upgrade, I've found out that, for me, instantaneous torque and agility it's more important. And as you said, the 765RS lacks it in low and middle revs, compared with my 2012 F800R and its 8,8 Kgfm, most of it available like almost always, except in higher revs, where its 87 cv limits the fun - just a bit, in fact, cause I'm getting older, smarter and slower, that S.O.S. stuff. It's like the opposite thing of the 765RS! So, I'm prone now to get a 2016/17 for my next bike, unfortunately the last Speed Triples wich came for Brazil. I guess it will check all the few boxes to update my ride; just not sure about the agility, cause the 1050R is heavier than the F800R and the 765RS, wich have similar weights. Just have to find out if this weight difference will really be so punish for the 1050R. Thanks for the video, and best regards.

@S1000xrhp 3 года назад

I share your passion for the Speed triple and your S polishes up very nicely just like my Diablo Red version. I'm OK with the reflectors but agree with everything else except to say the weight saving and handling benefits of a low exhaust outweigh the poorer aesthetics when compared to the better looking under seat cannons. But maybe the weight saving you've made over the stock underseat pipes is the happy medium. My GPR pipe crackles and pops like a mad thing, which is something to play with and an aural treat for those as I pass 🤣
