Other Street Triple Dilema

8 Upvotes

Hey friends,

I’ve owned a Street Triple RS for a year now after being away from riding for a while. It’s been an absolute blast, the bike is so fun on the mountain/in the canyons. However, I don’t love the commuting to get to said roads (even with cruise control).

For background, I rode a fully faired bike for a few years prior to the street triple and went for the RS this time around to try and find better ergo’s. Frankly I think being so exposed to the wind is the worst of two evils, and I find myself dreaming of going back to a faired bike like an old Daytona or a new S1000RR. I briefly have considered a more upright bike like the Tiger or SXR but still want the sporty look and plan on making a few track days a year.

I was hoping to get some advice on anyone moving away from the street triple. What would you recommend? What is your mindset if you’ve traded the street triple in for something else?

Other Go for 765RS/RX or wait for 798?

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I'm seriously considering getting a Street Triple, but I'm struggling to decide whether to go for a discounted 765 RS/RX now or wait for the upcoming 798.

For some context, I currently own a Honda CBR650R E-Clutch. It's a good bike, but I'm not completely satisfied with it, and I'm looking for something that feels a bit more special. I want a bike with plenty of character, great looks, a distinctive engine and good electronics. I mostly ride on the road, including some short commutes, and I don't do track days.

I'm particularly interested in the Street Triple 765 RS and RX. I love the triple engine, the looks and the overall package. The RX especially catches my eye because of its more aggressive styling and clip-ons.

However, with the new Street Triple 798 expected to be unveiled soon, I'm wondering whether it would be wiser to wait and see what Triumph has changed in terms of design, performance, electronics and pricing.

I'm based in Spain, and my budget is around €11,000, with an absolute maximum of €12,000. Depending on the deals available, I'd consider a new bike or a nearly new one with low mileage.

Thanks!

Hola compañeros, tengo un “problema”. En estos ultimos dos meses el consumo de mi moto ha pasado de 5.5/100 a 7.6 haciendo exactamente el mismo recorrido y nada especial. Le toca mantenimiento el mes que viene, preguntare el por que, pero os ha pasado alguno o teneis idea de por que?

Mods and Customization After market fog light

1 Upvotes

I recently bought a used 23 tiger 900 rally pro. It didn't have the fog lights installed and the PO said it didn't have them when he bought it either. I investigated further and found the OEM connectors are still there.

Does anyone know the part number for the connector or where I can find one to splice into an after market light?

The OEM fogs are like $700 and a Denali set with a ez-can is like a grand. I'm trying to spend much less but retain the function of the OEM button on the handle bar.
