The Triumph Street Triple R is the mid-spec variant of the Triumph Street Triple family offered internationally. In India though, Triumph has discontinued the base Street Triple S, and now offers the top-spec Street Triple RS and the Street Triple R on sale. In fact, before the current Street Triple with the 765 cc engine was introduced in 2016, Triumph had the last generation Street Triple on offer in India, with the 675 cc engine, but even then, the higher R variant was given the miss for India. The top-spec RS variant was only introduced with the 765 cc engine. Here's a look at the top 5 highlights of the Triumph Street Triple R.
