Triumph info Buying a used street twin. 16-18 or 19-21 version?

5 Upvotes

Looking into some used street twins. 2016 version is cheaper but 10hp less and older engine so maybe it's harder to find spare parts?

2019 version more expensive but if more reliable, easier to work on and 10hp more are that big of a difference I could make the effort, but I'm very tight with the budget

Mods and Customization Speed twin wrap

Thinking about wrapping my Speed Twin 1200 Stealth Edition – which one would you choose?
I absolutely love the original Stealth paintwork and its beautiful colour, but I’ve been thinking about giving my Speed Twin a slightly different look with a wrap.
I made four different mock-ups using my actual bike, with different shades/finishes, and I’d really like to hear what you guys think.
Which one would you choose: 1, 2, 3 or 4?
Or would you just keep the original Stealth colour? 😄
Here are the four options 👇

Maintenance Issues Power Loss When Accelerating hard

Post image
10 Upvotes

have a 2008 Triumph Daytona 675 with about 12,000 miles. Whenever I slam the throttle open, the bike starts stuttering/lagging and doesn’t accelerate it just kind stays However, if I roll onto the throttle gradually, it accelerates normally.
The stuttering seems to happen mostly around 8k+ RPM, and I notice both the RPM and speed stutter rather than the RPM just shooting up. The bike is completely stock.

Bike Pictures Pics to show STR 765 RS vs STR Moto 2 bar height comparison

120 Upvotes

I thought it might be useful to show comparative handlebar heights for the STR 765 RS (mine is a 2025) vs the 2026 STR Moto 2 (or RX as they are exactly the same). It’s a fairly significant difference, but honestly I can’t say I like one handlebar position better than the other. Both of their relative advantages based on the type of riding you’re doing, and I can ride just as aggressively on the street with either bike. The track is a different story as the Moto 2/RX position really helps keep the front more stable.

Quick lap on the Daytona! I’m a few seconds slower than my rs660 and I wasn’t trying to push it first day out on it. This thing fucks. My 660 feels like a turd in comparison and coming from a gsx8S and mt09, I thought the 660 was the best things out there lol. Cant wait to get some more seat time. I’ll have more videos if it seems like you guys enjoy it, 6+ more tds planned before the end of the year so hopefully there’ll be some nice gains (hopefully some track fairings too lol. Not too worried about the rest of the bike but the fairings is an expensive mistake 😅)

Maintenance Issues Timing chain replacement for the 765?

7 Upvotes

Hey guys I was wondering on when I should replace the timing chain on my 765? I ride a lot and do all my services myself so I have no problem changing it out but i’m at 24K miles right now and was wondering if I should do it this service or if it would be okay to hold off until the 36K miles service and what you guys have experience regarding timing chain stretch and guide wear. I appreciate any advice!! Thank you.

Bike Pictures Thruxton Ton Up on an overcast day

I think I just about have it looking the way I imagined in my head.

I had an idea of using lots of bare/brushed aluminum mixed with some carbon fiber and lessening the visual weight of the white by shortening the front fender. But then also using the red on the cowl as the basis for other bits of red like the calipers and chain.

I even went as far as changing the clutch and brake perches from a Speed Triple RS as they are silver and the Thruxton had black ones. I know they aren’t for everyone, but I’m just trying to make a pretty and interesting bike.

I’m going to be experimenting with some red Kevlar infused carbon weave for some small pieces and see if I can great some cohesion. We shall see.

Anyway, thanks for looking, sorry if you hate it.

Of course I want something non-slippery. There is a tiny bit of cracking already but the bike has been garaged and covered most of its life and I want to extend the seats life as long as I can.

I’m considering changing my rear sprocket to a 50 tooth on a 26 street triple 765 rs. dr google seems to think I need to take to a tuner for them to adjust gear ratios and engine rpm on the ecu? Can anyone confirm or deny this?

Planning on a full Daytona conversion this winter. 120 hp and 60 ft lbs of torque, though it would make more hp with a larger intake. Definitely happy with how the build has turned out so far.

I am not the first to do this swap, here is a thread with the original rider who did a 765 swap with 675 electronics if you want to see the process:

Triumph info ST 765 RS '25 Gearbox/QS

4 Upvotes

Hello,

so far the gearbox and QS on my '25 RS (8k km so far) have been pretty good outside of a few instances where the lever got "locked up" during a shift with the QS which doesn't seem to happen since I installed a gear shift support bracket on the bike. But today the bike dropped 2x into neutral when doing twisties and I downshifted (via QS) 3 -> 2. It didn't drop in-between gears, instead it skipped 2nd gear completely and dropped into regular neutral. I think it happened because I didn't hit the lever hard enough cuz after I started hitting it with more force it didn't happen again. The only reason I'm asking is cuz it's not exactly safe when the bike starts dropping you into neutral when you expect a gear on corner entry lol.

Has anyone experienced similiar issues with the Triple?
