Fresh Upgrades for the 2025 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS
Triumph’s flagship streetfighter just got sharper. The 2025 Speed Triple 1200 RS has landed in India at ₹20.39 lakh (ex-showroom), with more power, smarter suspension and better handling.
Despite the ₹2.44 lakh hike from the last version, it remains one of the most accessible options among premium European supernakeds, staying more affordable than rivals like the Ducati Streetfighter V4 and KTM Super Duke R.
Engine and Performance: More Power, More Noise
At its heart is the same 1160cc inline-three engine, but Triumph has turned up the heat.
- Now 183 bhp at 10,750 rpm
- 128 Nm of torque at 8,750 rpm
- Gains from a freer-flowing exhaust system
This means quicker throttle response, stronger mid-range pull and an even more menacing growl when you twist the wrist.
Suspension and Handling: Smart Gets Smarter
The biggest upgrade? The new Öhlins SmartEC3 suspension setup.
- Electronically adjustable on the fly
- Front: 43mm USD forks
- Rear: Fully adjustable monoshock
This adapts instantly to road conditions, giving you precise control whether you’re carving corners or cruising city streets.
Also new is the steering damper, which helps boost confidence at higher speeds and during aggressive riding.
Rider Aids and Tyres: Track-Ready Confidence
Triumph didn’t stop at hardware – rider tech has also levelled up:
- Independently adjustable wheelie control
- Optimised cornering ABS
- Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP V3 tyres for better grip
- Lightweight alloy wheels for better agility
- Brembo Stylema brakes with twin 320mm discs up front
These are for serious riders who want race-ready performance in a road-legal package.
Design Tweaks and Practicality Touches
The overall shape is still mean and muscular, but new colourways give it a fresh face:
- Sleek all-black
- Sporty grey and red
- Eye-popping grey with yellow accents
It still has the bright and crisp 5-inch TFT display, five riding modes, cornering traction control and Triumph Shift Assist as standard.Weight? 199 kg, just 1 kg more than before.
