The 2013 motorcycle had standard features, such as a twin headlight system, a small fly screen, a one-piece dual seat, a new exhaust system mounted under the engine, and lightweight five-spoke aluminum alloy wheels.
The bike's suspension system comprised a 41 mm upside-down Kayaba telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable Kayaba shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling.
As for the braking performance, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 310 mm discs squeezed by four-piston calipers on the front and a 250 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear, offering excellent stopping power.
In the performance department, the 2013 Triumph Street Triple R had installed underneath its fuel tank a 675cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 107 hp at 11,700 rpm and 69 Nm (51 lb-ft) torque at 9,100 rpm.
