Triumph Speed Twin 1200 RS 2025

Triumph Speed Twin 1200 RS 2025

With the new Speed Twin 1200 models, Triumph offers two exceptional machines that combine retro looks and modern technology in an appealing way. The powerful 1200cc parallel twin now meets state-of-the-art electronics and spoils you with a marvellous sound. The elegantly equipped RS feels most at home on winding roads. The sporty ergonomics with an active riding position, the precisely tuned firm suspension, the quickshifter and the marvellous Brembo brakes make it the perfect choice for ambitious riders. Despite the sporty design, the ride comfort remains surprisingly good.
