Triumph Street Triple 765 R 2017

The golden mean of the three Street Triple Schwesetern S, R and RS inspires with balanced riding performance - not too comfortable but far enough away from the top model RS. The engine characteristics aim for a bulbous middle in the rev range and exude a lot of charisma - among other things because of the unique sound. In terms of handling, there is hardly anything better; the Street Triple is the lightest in its class. For smaller riders, there is a version with a low seat height, and for A2 licence holders, there is a variant with 95 hp that can easily be throttled down to 48 hp.

The XSR900 in no way wants to hide the fact that it uses the MT-09 as its basis. With a full electronics package, powerful three-cylinder and sporty chassis components, you can be incredibly sporty on this retro bike. Hopefully you'll just find a more comfortable seat in the accessories soon - because it's going to take a lot of stops on the standard seat.
