Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Speed Triple R 2012

The R rides as precisely and calmly as never before. It is guaranteed to keep its nerve even when the rider may have long since thrown it away. The disadvantage of the compact powerhouse is that the radii have to be a little wider and the course a little faster so that the true Queen of England can also play the 4 aces up her sleeve.

Flawless racing chassis

very precise

relatively stable

inspiring looks

great engine

stable brakes

Requires wide radii

Somewhat complicated to ride in turns

Weaknesses in comfort
