Triumph Street Twin 2016

Triumph Street Twin 2016

The Triumph Street Twin is a pleasure bike par excellence, whose 55 hp engine impressively proves what really matters, namely torque. And exactly where you need it, in the middle of the rev range. 80 Nm push the 217 kg motorbike forward with pleasant pressure and never tempt the rider to overtax the engine, i.e. to rev it. In terms of design, Triumph remained authentic as usual and offers countless possibilities for customisation with over 450 accessories and the three "Inspiration Packs". A lesson in modern classics.

Honda calls the model series "Neo Sports Cafe", and the CB 1000 R lives up to the fresh name. The style is new, different and not only visually but also haptically very successful. The "sport" is not neglected in the new model either. The engine has a wonderful torque curve and accelerates the machine with fine control and vehemence at the same time. All this comes in the "+" version with good equipment and technical precision made in Japan in the form of a great riding machine in the showrooms. A great motorbike!

Fabulous response in every engine situation

Feels very comfortable both slowly but also sportily

Precise and smooth transmission

Precise lines possible due to immaculate drive unit paired with good chassis

High-quality details.

Display not perfectly readable in direct sunlight

tall pilots may have space problems with their knees at the tank => try it out
