Precisa, potente e rápida! A Triumph é muito divertida nos desfiladeiros alpinos. No entanto, só se pode perdoar o chassis apertado se se for um piloto desportivo. Mas o motor é de louvar. Não importa se está a passear ou a aquecer - a potência está sempre disponível de forma bem doseada.
Triumph Speed Triple S 2016

A Speed Triple mantém-se fiel à sua linha na última geração - uma moto naked maravilhosamente afiada que caracteriza o estilo streetfighter como quase nenhum outro modelo. O motor de três cilindros com 140 cv é muito divertido e o Fafhrwerk não mostra grandes fraquezas, mas existe uma Speed Triple R com elementos de suspensão Öhlins que naturalmente se sente mais à vontade na pista de corridas. Em suma, a Speed Triple S é uma excelente lutadora de estrada rural que também tem muito a oferecer em termos de aparência.
