2015 Triumph Street Triple RX

[Fowlersrs]

Don't know if anyone's seen this yet but triumph have been having a play around with the street and daytona and come up with this for 2015:

Triumphs Street Triple has got to go down as one of the Hinckley firm’s biggest success stories since John Bloor re-launched the brand – so you can’t really blame them for milking it.

And while there’s a whiff of money-for-old-rope about the new ‘RX’ special edition version – basically a Street Triple R with a few Daytona 675 bits and some other accessories thrown at it – the result is still an appealing prospect.

What’s new? Most obvious is the Daytona 675 rear subframe and tail bodywork, which means that buyers who take pillions might prefer to stick with the normal Street Triple instead. On top of that, there’s a quickshifter as standard, along with a bellypan and front cowl. The red and silver paintwork is also unique to the RX.

The specs are otherwise identical to the ‘R’ model, with 106PS and 68Nm of torque from the 675cc triple, Nissin radial calipers at the front and fully-adjustable KYB suspension at both ends.

Looks nice, but the headlights and windshield.... not digging it.

If it ain't broke then why fix it, just make it look better and chuck in some extras. Looks bloody fantastic. If this was out when I bought my 899 it would have made me think twice.

It will be interesting to see what happens when they give the engin a proper overhaul, but that's probably years away.

Like all but the exhaust. Not such a fan of the side mounted ones, though maybe it'd look good with a more sleek side mounted one?

I could live with anything from the rear up to the fork legs.. but the very front is horrid.

I have to admit the headlights are the only reason I do not like STR

Wish they'd bring back the old round headlights. The new ones just look like every other bike out there.

I'm a bit torn on the headlights on mine, they look a bit odd still but they work so much better than the round ones on the previous version, I do ride at night so I will be keeping them.

Lights and windshield let it down for me.

I think it looks mighty purdy. Interested to see what price it will be as opposed to a Street Triple R.

Am I the only person that likes the headlights?

So do I.

Nice looking bike. Shame the didn't take the opportunity to tune up the engine.

I do quite like it, with the exception of the exhaust. Unfortunately though, more and more manufacturers are going this way so I think we're stuck with this style.
