What's the best naked on track? | Fast Bikes Magazine 

Thank you for this comparison on track. I bought the latest 765 RS last year. In the better colour though! Having ridden sports-bikes on track-days in the past, I bought this more to have fun and improve myself on track (I don’t get to do many each year), instead of concentrating too much on the bike. I’ve tested the 890R and 790 Duke before that, the MT09 last year and a lot of the 1000+ naked bikes in the past, including the Triumph 1200 RS back to back with the previous ‘22 model of the 765. I have no brand loyalty. This 765 may not be the most powerful or fastest bike in a straight line, but I just preferred the whole chassis and the engine character of the 765 for track riding. This is comfortable (for me) and most importantly is the most accurate/precise bike for improving yourself I think. It is also pretty much track ready straight out of the box, tyres and all (add a brake lever guard). I’ve uploaded some of my track sessions on my 765 previously, including Cadwell Park. These are just unedited sessions of an experienced (old?!) amateur still trying to improve; ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9c6l7eyGc38.htmlsi=9QBDHu7nQuubjoSZ

Love my 765RS. Now it’s got a full system and custom tune, it’s up to 130bhp at the wheel, it’s next level. it’s an awesome package to get the most out of and so much fun to ride.

Love my 24’ Cosmic Yellow 765 RS and can’t wait for a full exhaust and tune!

Just did a 8143km Euro trip on the Bridgestone S23 on my KTM Duke 890R. Rode from Finland to Brno. Some track time at Brno followed by 8 days of Cannonball Bike Run 2024. And then a ride home from Sunny Beach Bulgaria. The tyre out performed my expectations and still has some rubber left after all that abuse. ❤

Nice Saturday morning coffee stuff! Good job people

The Ducati Monster SP would’ve been more suitable than the V2, but probably would’ve still lost lol. You’re gonna have to redo this next year including that and the new MT09SP.

I wasn't expecting the Street triple to win because it's the least expensive (I think), and probably the least powerful too, but i bought one last year and I love it. I find when you're going slower around turns it feels so agile and sharp, but when you get up to speed it stables out and holds a straight line. Great video!

I also appreciate my gen 1 765 RS! Comfort all day long touring, and delivers on track as well! I switched to Michelin Power GP tires. Just as good as SuperCorsa on track, but way better in cold condition and in the rain touring. Awesome tires on this excellent 765 RS!!

On board footage is on point and gives great context. I.e our skills are vastly different, our view isn’t. Great test, thanks. I wish they did these bikes in comfortable faired designs. GSX8R is barking up the right tree, Ducati Supersport also, 120-130bhp is Goldilocks for the road.

My dream bike! Triumph 765 RS

What tyre is on the rear of the Ducati? They have been selling the midclass Ducati's on 180/60 tyres for ages but I don't believe Bridgestone even make the S23 in 180/60 yet. Atleast the don't advertise it on their website. So what is on then? A S22 180/60 or a S23 180/55. I have had a load of 180/55 S22's on my bike, it has a really flat profile that gives stabilty but it does not have the much more agressive steap sides of the Pirelli's that Ducati's are sold on. If it is a 180/55 S23 on the Ducati, it would be completely logical if it was slow steering.

MT-09 and KTM Duke battling to try and make the UGLIEST front end on a motorcycle ever Please sort it out

Nice video. I bought some Bridgestone S22 last year on sale looking at all these videos using Bridgestone tires in the UK. Great tires on my 2019 STT RS. And the grip is consistent as they get old. Needs more promotion here in Canada to build the brand as they are very underrated here, surprisingly. I run 28psi at the front and 26 at the rear on a sunny track day here in Canada (where it can get really hot 30C). Surprised of seeing the Bridgestone rep (sorry cant remember his name), giving much higher value. Maybe track temp difference between England and here ? Quick question if someone has the time to answer. Switching this bike to a trackday bike (no more road riding). Is it worth it to go with an racing street RS11 then ? I dont want to use warmers.

Got the 24 model love it, QS is very smooth no probs. I love kTm😁.

Interesting the tyre pressures he recommends 32 F 30R cold. On the predecessor S22 Bridgestone quote 30F 26R cold....

Theres some really good middleweight options bang for buck.... MT09sp, duke 890r, 765rs etc....my question is who on earth goes and buys an MV??😂

Brilliant video always really enjoy your stuff look forward to watching many more 👍🏻

This test shows once again that riding impressions on motorcycles are extremely subjective and ultimately you can never avoid a test ride. I had a Yamaha MT-09 SP for 3 years, which is considered hyper-agile, and I had so much more fun on the twisty country roads on my test ride with the Ducati Streetfighter V2 than I ever had with the Yamaha. The Ducati can simply do everything better, which is why I ordered one straight away, which will be delivered in two weeks. If I had known that motorcycles could ride like the Streetfighter does, I would have bought it much sooner. Greetings from Germany

Tuono ?

No MT09 SP?

Not surprised it was the triumph

Why is the bmw and Yamaha not here ?

765 maybe next for me. Had a terrible time with a Moto2. More in the dealership than on the road (electronic issues).

Where's the Z900 at? Too heavy?

Yamaha press fleet rep is on line 1, please pick up

Would have been nice to have seen the Ducati Monster SP and the Aprilia Tuono 660.

Really Triumph I’m really surprise !!! And impressed 😜

When you do an ad spot it's common courtesy to mark it.

Tuono would b my 1st choice on reputation/other reviews

Super!

I’ll never call the Tuono a naked bike. Still has the fixed front fairings and a windshield Unpopular opinion I know

C'était une super vidéo les gars, i enjoyed it ! 👍 Waiting for the next one 🙂

I absolutely love the super duke and that ktm has stuck with the v twin.. BUT.. The first thing I would do if I bought a new super Duke is by an old headlight for it lol..that new headlight is absolutely hideous

The Tuono has won every year across multiple publications, why is it not on the test?

the best naked on track and elsewhere will be allways be a TUONO V4 !

Thought this was a great review…but you know why there wasn’t a single smile, chuckle, or legit emotion shared by either of them? …there wasn’t an MT-10 in the lineup 🎉🎉

Ducati fastest and best looking✊🔥

I still like road bikes but there's so many look at me Nancy's that got no idea of how to ride. So motocross is my flavour and definitely sorts the men from the boys.

It’s a shame that only Ducati, MV Agusta, Triumph, and KTM are the only manufacturers with sub-liter naked bikes…😢!

Uk test rides always give Triumph great reviews🤣Triumph to blend, I take Duke 990 or Streetfighter V2 any days✊🔥

Doesn’t Joe work for Triumph? 🤔

Where is the Aprilia tuono. 😢😢

Sooo where was the aprillia tuono? Or the M1000R?

bit unfair on the mv,truimph as lower engine size the only nice looking bike was the mv,ducati

Where’s the ZH2?!

Where is M1000R? 😢😢

Where are the MT09 riders with superior machines to Street Triple :D

S1000R ¿?

MT-10, Tuono? Bit of a crap test

Sorry guys, the best naked is still the Aprilia V4 1100 Tuono Factory

MT09SP is nowhere to be found. Why?

There are loads of tyres you can buy for the road and take to the track, nothing new.

Ofcourse the fucking ducati was quick. Its got about 30hp more than the other bikes ffs😑

Mt09 No mt10? Didn't bother watching soon as a seen that lol

Mt 09Sp???

Not a real test without the MT09 or BMW n Aprilia Should have waited till you could have got them.

How can you tell if UK children have speech impediments or just speak like thier parents?

cough mt10 cough

bmw m1000r

Triumph is too revvy.. not very good on the road, you really notice the lack of torque! Constantly dropping down gears to get the thing going it only seems useful on track but you might aswell buy a sports bike if its track specific..

that guy sounds like tyson fury . in any comparison tyson fury would come last , too outdated , too big , not sophisticated , made out of cheap materials , does not deliver as promised . i give it 2/5 , would not recomend

WTF…why no MT10?

Why is it necessary to blaspheme? Leave GOD out of your limited vocabulary!!
