Exclusive interview as Michael Mann asks Triumph's Chief Engineer, Stuart Wood, about the heavily updated 2021 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS. The entire bike is new from engine capacity to gearbox ratios, chassis, riding position, and most importantly the power-to-weight increase of 26% over the previous generation (2018). 177bhp vs. 198kg (wet). You can even hear the 3-cylinder motor in action too!
