TRIUMPHStreet Triple R 2008 - 2009

　　The Triumph Street Triple was a naked machine manufactured by Triumph from 2007 to replace the 600 Speed Four. The bike was similar to the Speed Triple 1050 and packed a retuned 675cc engine borrowed from the Daytona 675 sports bike.

　　In 2008, alongside the standard model, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Street Triple 675 R, the same machine as the standard model, packing the same engine but fully adjustable front and rear suspension, like the Daytona model.

　　Instead of the regular suspension of the standard model, the fully adjustable units resulted in a higher seat height and a sharper rake angle. Also, the braking system was shared with the Daytona model, featuring a Nissin master cylinder and calipers.

　　In addition to the fully adjustable suspension system and Nissin brakes, the R model packed other minor differences over the standard model, including a handlebar, seat, and different colors like Matte Orange and Matte Grey.

　　The 2008 Triumph Street Triple R had its soul brought to life by a 675cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fed by an electronically controlled fuel injection system, delivering 108 hp at 11,700 rpm and 52 Nm (38 lb-ft) torque at 9,100 rpm.

　　The bike's power was handled by a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch and a final chain drive, pushing the machine to a top speed of 227 kph (141 mph).
