World press review
Meta-score

Press ratings
Evolution rather than revolution; the R is more compliant than the RS but loses chassis control as the pace rises; the R's instruments are more legible.
Effortless to ride fast or slow, on road or track; the R's shock is less composed over bumps, unconvincing original tyres.
Unbeatable price/equipment/fun ratio, strong engine, stable and agile chassis, perfect quickshifter; small tank, vibration around 8,000 rpm, harsher suspension on the R.
Rigorous, precise and easy; the R is sound and effective but less precise than the RS, with a shock too loose at a brisk pace.
Press synthesis
What the world’s press says
The current Street Triple 765 R scores 5/5 from MCN, which tested it on its own. BikeSocial (5/5), Motorcycle.com (89/100) and Moto.it (8.5/10) rated the R and RS together. RevZilla, Visordown, Moto-Net and Le Repaire des Motards tested it without a numeric score. All these tests date from the 2023 launch; the bike has not changed since.
What reviewers like: a strong, lively and sonorous triple, a precise and easy chassis, the standard quickshifter, comprehensive cornering electronics and fun-per-euro that Moto-Net calls unbeatable.
What they criticise: a shock and brakes a notch below the RS’s, unconvincing original-fit tyres, a small 15-litre tank and some vibration around 8,000 rpm.
Key quotes
"It offers all the thrills of the racier RS at road speeds, but for a useful £1700 less."
"Objectively speaking, if you're not going to ride on track then you're better off with the R version, and you'll save yourself nearly two grand in the process."
"It's still the definitive bike for those looking for pure performance on the road and track, and it's going to take some serious work from the competition to change that."
"The fearsome little Brit proves once again that it does its job superbly. It's fun, it's fast and, despite high-quality equipment, it doesn't cost a fortune."
"Rigorous, precise and remarkably easy, the Triumph Street Triple R and RS can be ridden on instinct."

Our review
Which Street Triple 765 R is on sale today?
The current generation was unveiled by Triumph in November 2022, as the 2023 model year in Europe and 2024 in the United States. It has not changed technically since: the 2025 and 2026 model years only brought new colours (Pure White and Matt Baja Orange, then Phantom Black). The owner’s manual is the same for all these years. In September 2024, Triumph added a 95 hp R A2 version that can be restricted to 35 kW.
It is also the end of the line for the 765: the R is no longer in the UK range, and on 17 November 2026 Triumph will unveil an all-new Street Triple 798, powered by the engine developed for the 2027 Moto2 championship.
How much does it cost?
Triumph France lists the Street Triple 765 R at €10,795 in Phantom Black or Pure White, and €11,095 in Matt Baja Orange. The R A2 costs €10,495 and the better-equipped RS €13,095. Triumph offers a €765 customer discount on bikes ordered and delivered in October 2026. In the United States, the R costs $10,595.
How good is the engine?
The 2023 overhaul raised the 765 cc triple’s compression ratio from 12.65:1 to 13.25:1, with new pistons, con-rods, valves and camshafts. It makes 120 hp at 11,500 rpm and 80 Nm at 9,500 rpm. Triumph also shortened the gear ratios.
Every test praises it: strong and sonorous for MCN, livelier than its figures suggest thanks to the shorter gearing for BikeSocial, full-bodied for Moto-Net. Moto-Net finds the standard up/down quickshifter perfect, but notes vibration around 8,000 rpm.
How does it ride?
Visordown finds it effortless to ride fast or slow, on road or track, and Le Repaire des Motards praises a rigorous, precise bike. MCN says it offers all the thrills of the RS at road speeds for much less money, and BikeSocial recommends the R to anyone who won’t ride on track.
Compared with the RS, the R has limits noted by several tests:
- a Showa shock that is less composed over bumps (Visordown) and too loose at a brisk pace (Le Repaire des Motards);
- a softer chassis that loses control as the pace rises (RevZilla);
- brakes lacking the RS’s immediacy (Motorcycle.com);
- unconvincing original-fit Continental tyres (Visordown, Motorcycle.com).
Fuel consumption and maintenance
Triumph quotes 5.4 L/100 km, giving a range of about 280 km from the 15-litre tank, which MCN and Moto-Net find small. Moto.it recorded 5.8 L/100 km on the trip computer during its test. The owner’s manual specifies an oil change every 10,000 km or every year and a valve clearance check every 20,000 km. Triumph France provides a 2-year unlimited-mileage warranty.
