In 2010, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Speed Triple, a naked machine that debuted in 1994. When first released, the 1994 Hinckley Triumph was one of the first motorcycles with a streetfighter style without an aerodynamic plastic fairing.
Over the years, the Triumph Speed Triple underwent several technical, visual, and performance modifications, enhancing its overall capabilities and delivering an aggressive appearance.
In the visual department, the 2010 machine packed standard features, such as a twin headlight unit, a one-piece dual seat, a high-mounted exhaust system, a single-sided swingarm, and multi-spoke lightweight wheels.
The bike's aluminum beam twin-spar frame was fitted with a 43 mm fully adjustable Showa telescopic fork on the front and a fully adjustable Showa shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent handling.
In the braking department, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 320 mm floating discs tied to four-piston Brembo calipers on the front and a 255 mm disc with a dual-piston Nissin caliper on the rear, providing excellent stopping power.
As for performance, the 2010 Triumph Speed Triple had installed underneath its fuel tank a 1,050cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine managed by an electronically controlled fuel injection system, boasting 133 hp with maximum strength at 9,400 rpm and 111 Nm (82 b-ft) torque at 7,750 rpm.
The power produced by the engine was sent to the rear wheel through a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch and a final X-ring chain drive.
