Triumph Street Triple review, test ride

Given its compact looking profile, the Street Triple feels surprisingly accommodating for taller riders, still low enough for a shorter person. Its riding position is neither too aggressive nor out of place for a quick bike such as this. The Street Triple seat feels comfortable, and everything falls in place well, the handlebar controls taking no time to get comfortable with and rear brake pedal being placed in exactly the right position. Ride quality is good on the Street Triple, a touch on the firm, sporty side helping the Triumph feel sure footed, light and agile at all times. The Street Triple comes with excellent brakes, offering just the right feel, with strong bite and a flawlessly functioning ABS system. Pirelli Corsa tyres work to impart excellent grip, making the Street Triple a planted motorcycle to cleave through corners on, whether fast or tight.

We’re left impressed after this early, brief ride astride the Street Triple. Here’s a stylish and top quality motorcycle with just the right amount of performance, delivered with such a nice and character rich nature. Never overly intimidating to pilot in India, the Street Triple is a segment topping bike sure to win Triumph many an Indian biker’s vote.
