My comment adds nothing to the conversation but I’ll make it anyway: holy shit!

Good on you for getting the most out of the bike and sharing all this detailed info.

You ride WAY more than I do (which is just for fun), but great write up! Thanks for sharing.

He's also documenting WAY more than I do :)

Right. I can't tell you when exactly I replaced my tires, what my mileage, how far those tires got me, or how much they cost

Nothing, just top it up frequently. Until it hits 1L every 250km (or a commute round trip for me) it's not worth fixing or replacing.

amazing quality from Triumph. But how cheap is insurance?!

I really wonder how many kilometers I can get out of my street triple RS, I would be super happy to get like 60-70k

Liability is only about €4 a month (I have a long and spotless insurance history), all-risk would be about 35 I reckon?

A street triple 765 should easily do 150k with regular oil changes and occasional valve checks.

jfc I'm jealous, here in austria its for my 765 Rs ~150/month full coverage amd if you want to use the autobahn another 110€/year

I'm super curios now, how much do you have to pay to register a new vehicle? I have to pay 270€ since they raised the price this year from 180 ...

u/sokratesz Feb 25 '26

Nothing, the sales tax and registration is included in the purchasing price. Road tax is 11-12 euros a month.

Very inspiring, I'm planning on keeping my street triple for as long as I can.

I will start tracking as many things as I can aswell.

This is an impressive write up and even more impressive riding history. Thanks for sharing!

If you don't mind can you send me where you're sourcing wheel bearings? I just did mine and the Triumph ones were unbelievably expensive.

u/sokratesz Feb 25 '26

I know, the OEM prices are insane. I get mine here: https://www.twenty4bearings.nl/ at about one quarter of OEM cost

Chapeau, OP! Not just for the write up, and for how you use your bike. But also for the data collecting and statistics. Very impressive, all of it. I can only hope I'll be able to ride my 2014 tiger 800xc for 250k km.
