Sporting the proven 675cc powerplant, like the rest of the models from the Street Triple family, this Special Edition from the Hinckley firm addresses riders who want their bike to perform better, but also scream out in a crowd. Devilish good-looks come as standard in the Triumph Street Triple RX, thanks to visual upgrades such as red rear subframe styling enhancements, courtesy of the award-winning Daytona 675R, Diablo Red wheels, and special RX decals.

Performance-wise, the two-wheeler comes standard with a race-inspired quickshifter, a redesigned frame, for more stability and precision through the bends, a different, under-slung 3-in-1 exhaust, for a lower center of gravity and fully adjustable KYB suspensions.

Mix all these ingredients, and you get the most aggressive, powerful, and fiendishly good-looking roadster the Brits from Triumph have ever launched.
