TRIUMPHSpeed Triple R 2014 - 2015

　　In 2014, the British motorcycle maker released the Triumph Speed Triple R, a more sports-oriented machine than the standard model, packing race-derived Ohlins suspension and Pirelli Supercorsa SP tires.

　　The 2014 R model packed the same 1,050cc engine as the standard model but with more power and torque. In addition, the bike was easily distinguishable from the base model by the red-finished rear subframe.

　　In the aesthetic department, the R model had standard features, such as a color-matched fly screen, a twin headlight system, a one-piece dual seat, a dual exhaust system mounted under the seat, a single-sided swingarm, and 10-spoke lightweight wheels.

　　As for the power figures, the 2014 Triumph Speed Triple R had its soul brought to life by a 1,050cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine managed by a fuel injection system, delivering 136 hp at 9,400 rpm and 111 Nm (82 lb-ft) torque at 7,750 rpm.

　　The bike was built around a lightweight aluminum beam twin-spar frame with a 43 mm upside-down adjustable Ohlins fork on the front and an adjustable Ohlins shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent handling capabilities.

　　In the braking department, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 320 mm floating discs coupled to four-piston calipers on the front and a 255 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear, offering excellent stopping power.
