The Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RR is essentially a Speed Triple 1200 RS with a fairing. The British manufacturer unveiled the motorcycle towards the end of 2021, and It sits at the top of the ‘Roadsters and Supersports’ range in the 2022 Triumph lineup.

As mentioned above, the most significant difference between the Speed Triple 1200 RR and its street-naked counterpart is the addition of a semi-fairing. The semi fairing draws inspiration from those on cafe-racers from back in the day, but there are some neo-retro design elements like the round LED headlight. Compared to the Speed Triple RS, other changes include a clip-on handlebar and a different footpeg position that puts the rider in a slightly more committed riding triangle. The bike also features Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 electronically adjustable semi-active suspension.

The rest of the motorcycle is largely similar to the RS. Powering the bike is the same 1,160cc inline-triple with peak output figures of 177.5 hp and 92 lb-ft of torque. The engine is paired to a 6-speed gearbox that you can bang through with a bi-directional down quick-shifter that comes as standard equipment.

Triumph Motorcycles has also equipped the Speed Triple 1200 RR with the same electronic suite on the RS. This includes the 6-axis IMU-assisted traction control and ABS, five ride modes — Rain, Road, Sport, Track, and a Rider-customizable mode — and the 5-inch TFT display.

The 2022 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RR starts at $20,950 USD / $23,250 CAD.

2022 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RR Features

The Speed Triple 1200 RS took the world by storm in January 2021 with its responsive and powerful 177HP, 1160cc, three-cylinder, low-inertia engine. Now, the same compact and lightweight unit powers the Speed Triple 1200 RR giving an even more thrilling Speed Triple riding experience, thanks to its more focused ergonomics and specification upgrades. A brushed stainless-steel exhaust with black end-cap delivers the soundtrack resulting in a perfect pitch.

Engineered with exquisite attention to detail, the RR is the most focused Speed Triple ever, featuring clip-on handlebars and a beautiful new crafted fairing, giving it a nose-down, aggressive riding position that is pure and sophisticated.

Fitted with the latest Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 electronically adjustable, semi-active forks and rear monoshock, the Speed Triple 1200 RR boasts the most advanced production Öhlins suspension available. Race-developed Brembo brakes include a span and ratio adjustable lever, radially-mounted Stylema® monobloc calipers and lightweight 320mm discs. Plus new high-performance Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP V3 tires, a lightweight cast aluminum chassis and an optimized center of gravity deliver the new benchmark in Speed Triple precision handling and agility.

Constant development has transformed rider-aid technology, and the Speed Triple 1200 RR provides the perfect showcase.

The Optimized Cornering ABS and Optimized Cornering Traction Control bring a state-of-the-art safety system for riding in all conditions. And the assistance is never intrusive or restrictive, the tipping point between performance and safety is always perfectly balanced.

The standard-fit Triumph Shift Assist up and down quickshifter works superbly at any engine speed and load, optimizing gear shifts while maintaining throttle position, and helping to increase focus on the racetrack or the road. The latest generation front wheel lift control uses advanced algorithms to allow a non-intrusive smooth ride with constant, positive throttle.

In addition to the advanced electronic rider aids that enhance performance and safety, the Speed Triple 1200 RR features a number of thoughtful ride-enhancing touches.

The 5” TFT display has a strong focus on speed, gear and tach, that can be configured to suit the rider’s preference — the information you need to ride on the road is often different to the information you want in your eyeline on the racetrack.

The My Triumph Connectivity System comes as standard, with an integrated Bluetooth module, making phone calls and music to your in-helmet system effortless, along with turn-by-turn navigation and GoPro control. Accessed via easy-to-use handlebar-mounted switch cubes controlling menu systems that are intuitive and user-friendly, all the ride information you need is at your fingertips.

The five riding modes (Rain, Road, Sport, Track and Rider Configurable) can be easily selected on the move, via a dedicated button on the left handlebar. These different modes have been developed through intensive testing to give the perfect throttle response, Traction control and ABS settings to suit a broad range of weather and road conditions. Of course, we all have our own preferences as riders, so the Rider Configurable option allows fine-tuning of each parameter to suit your style.

The new RR takes all the muscular attitude and signature Speed Triple style of the new generation RS and raises it to a whole new level with a host of beautiful features and touches. The Speed Triple’s nose-down muscular broad-shouldered poise and attitude is amplified further by the stunning new crafted cockpit fairing with beautiful single headlight that echoes Triumph’s signature design DNA. Add to that the RR’s exquisite attention to detail, premium carbon fiber detailing and stunning candy paint schemes with Red Hopper and Crystal White options, and you have the pinnacle in Speed Triple attitude and style.
