Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Triumph Street Triple 765 RS 2023

The Triumph Street Triple 765 RS is a great motorbike, a very sporty naked bike, which can inspire above all sporty, precise motorcyclists. Extremely well-balanced, finely tuned and with strong feedback, the lightweight Englishwoman presents herself. A motorbike where the buyer can do absolutely nothing wrong. No wonder it is almost sold out!

The Yamaha MT-09 did not need to be reinvented for the coming season - it already was extremely well done almost four years ago. Instead, the Japanese focus on fine-tuning and adding practical, contemporary gimmicks such as traction control and automatic shifting. Due to the Euro4 standard, however, the engine management has been changed once again and offers an emphatically powerful but well controllable power delivery in standard mode; the power explosion of the first generation is now no longer offered even by the sharper A mode. The biggest change, recognisable at first glance, is the, in my opinion, extremely successful design with the more aggressive front and the newly designed rear. All in all, an even snazzier naked bike that was clearly built for the fun of motorcycling.
