Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Street Triple 765 RS 2020

As before, the RS top model is indeed the most desirable of the Street Triples. In addition to the usual playful handling, the super-direct Brembo brakes and the lively character of the three-cylinder engine, there is now a more bulbous mid-range, upgraded electronics as well as a Brembo M50 brake and the once again sharpened appearance. Thanks to the very sporty Pirelli Supercorsa SP V3 tyres, trackdays are indeed a serious issue, and the now standard shift assistant with blipper function greatly increases the incentive to switch to the new model. A wonderful fun machine for both country road and track!

Fantastically lively engine

high quality standard

quickshifter with blipper as standard

roaring sound

excellent Brembo M50 brake system

ABS and traction control as standard

sporty look

low weight.

somewhat complicated menu navigation

connectivity system bugged

adjustment screws on the fork poorly accessible

Triumph Scrambler 1200 X 2024

The Triumph Scrambler 1200 X is an emotional and powerful bike that feels just as comfortable on long touring tours as it does on challenging winding roads. With its charismatic engine and stable geometry, it conveys a powerful riding experience and attracts attention with its striking design. But it also impresses in practical terms, particularly with its versatility and suitability for everyday use. However, there are weaknesses in the features and handling, which should not go unmentioned for a bike in this price range.

magnificent engine

beautiful appearance

full electronics package

large scrambler (also) for small people

pleasingly low fuel consumption and emissions

sound as bassy as ever

good everyday suitability for lengthy tours

reliable, lean angle-dependent traction control.

Limited lean angle freedom

Exhaust heat still noticeable

Suspension not adjustable except for rear suspension preload

ABS too defensive on slippery tarmac

Noticeable vibrations at high speeds

Lack of cruise control
