Speed Triple R review

‘IT’S not that powerful’ I found myself saying to a mate before getting on a flight to Barcelona for the launch of the new Triumph Speed Triple. ‘Only about 140hp.’

‘That is a lot of power,’ said my friend, who’s also a motorcyclist. I realised he was of course right and that I, like the supernaked class, had gone mad.

You wouldn’t have to go far back to arrive at a time when the best litre sports bikes made less power than today’s supernakeds.
