Triumph Speed Triple RX: New Bike News!

Only 1,200 available globally, this exclusive edition features Semi-active Öhlins suspension and a race-inspired riding position. Get ready for explosive power and razor-sharp handling.

Today, 13th May Triumph Motorcycles have unveiled the new limited edition Triumph Speed Triple RX – a limited edition motorcycle derived from their iconic Speed Triple range.

From the precision-focused Speed Triple 1200 RS, to the track-ready, limited-edition Speed Triple 1200 RX, this is a family of performance roadsters engineered for serious riders.

Each model shares the same core DNA — a 1160cc triple-cylinder engine, lightweight chassis, advanced rider tech, and premium components — but each one delivers its own distinct riding experience. Let’s check out some of the features:

ÖHLINS Mechatronic Steering Damper (RX Exclusive)

• The ÖHLINS SD EC steering damper, seamlessly integrated with the Smart EC3 system, enhances precision, control, and high-speed stability.

Akrapovič Silencer (RX standard fit)

• Titanium race exhaust reduces weight, sharpens throttle response and amplifies the triple soundtrack.

Supercorsa SP V3 Tyres

• Pirelli’s premium track-capable road tyres deliver unrivalled grip and confidence in the corners.

Front Wheel Lift Control

• Advanced electronics manage front-wheel lift during aggressive acceleration, keeping the RX stable and fully in control — on road or track.

Carbon Fibre Front Mudguard (RX Exclusive)

• Lightweight construction and premium finish that looks as fast as it performs.

Triumph Motorcycles have cemented their mark in the world of motorsport over the last few years. Kickstarting the rebirth of their presence in 2018 in Moto2, continuing into various world class championships – notably their success in WorldSSP. With athletes in BSB and beyond flying the Triumph flag for the Hinckley based factory.

The release of the latest member of the triple family, the Triumph Speed Triple RX is limited to just 1,200 units worldwide priced at £18,995.00.
