      Eugene Gallagher . Took the Speed triple rs out today and it was a revelation. Handling wise , for my body weight , ( 15st) it's firm but not to the point of being uncomfortable. As speeds increase it really starts to come into its own and I think maybe beats the Superduke for agility and composure. Quickshifter is super slick and the brakes are superb. Only complaint is to wheelie it the t.c needs to be off . What were they thinking. It comes up a treat in 3rd. Overall it's a great bike ,just sort the anti wheelie and give us some racy paint jobs Triumph

      Rode both bike back to back last week. No doubt the Triumph has a great engine and a brilliant finish (no visible cables/ hoses or any cheap looking surfaces) but the Tuono is by far the much better ride. Drivetrain with a perfect powerdelivery and flawless transmission/ blipper, best in class suspension, great stability, far better electronics/ assist package, great dash, proper ergonomics which suits the avaliable power - not talking about the V4 sound. The only lowlight is the looks of some plastic covers and switches - just my cents.

    After owning and riding 8 years on the Street Triple R (2009/2014 models) I bought the Black Speed RS, to me the more substantial feel, power, build quality, ergonomics and the fact that it now rides more like a Street made it a no-brainer :) I have no complaints about the Speed suspension setup in normal (90kg 1.87m rider) since my Street was setup for the track. Only niggles I found sofar in the Speed: Neutral is sometimes hard to find, buzzing/droning in the handlebars above 6k revs which I'm hoping will be less with some bar-end weights, otherwise a perfect bike! Nice review! keep them coming. Cheers from the Netherlands

    Thanks guys I'm loving this format. I'm a Speedy owner and have loved it. The new Speed will be amazing but I'm ready for a change and think the Tuono or SDR might be it, I'll be interested to see the comparison of the Speedy and SDR. I was hoping the Tuono would be a clear favourite to help me make my mind up, so creds to Triumph on making this new bike so epic. My biggest issue with Triumph and the Speedy is the choice of colour, the Tuono just looks so much better. Come on Triumph, you made a fantastic new bike but the paint options are as dull as dish water.

    I just received my 2022 Speed Triple 1200RS and have a couple takes of gas through it. Love it. To make it a much better street bike, back the too firm Ohlins settings to 20 Compression and 20 Rebound on both fork and shock. Makes a massive difference. Still well dampened and control but some much more forgiving and much better contract with the road for 180lbs rider. I love the range of adjustments on the new Ohlins.

So far for me the Speed is in the lead with the MT10 coming a close second. The Tuono is on my to do list. I've surprised myself how fussy i am with bikes, it has to feel right. My Tiger 900 GT Pro is great. Although it doesn't have the performance of these bikes it's no slouch and a great practical ride. I'll keep this bike for commuting and hopefully get a second.

    1000 out of 1000 I'll take the Aprilia. No question. That fiery Italian engine , passion and quality is superior. I agree with Michael Neeves that the Tuono runs likely the greatest engine on any motorcycle ever produced. I like the Super Duke 1290 R and this over the Triumph. I rode the Triumph and I like it however I would grow tired of it.

    I test rode the RS12 today. Was very impressed with it. Its not quite there but very good effort from triumph. Found the handling awesome, made my Tuono Factory feel heavy in comparison 😳
    As you say the torque is far more noticeable on the Tuono. Once wound up the RS is just as fast. I did find the RS had intrusive vibes on the pegs and bars tho.
    I was unable to get it into track mode or turn the wheelie control off so that was a concern.
    Other point of note was the DRLs are not bright enough. I found people pulling out and just not seeing me while on the RS1200.
    I think if they sort out the vibes, more torque and segregated traction and wheelie control this will be fighting for the top spot.

    So glad I stumbled on this video, you know I have said it before but this intro makes me smile, the song, you replied in the past it was a CZcams standard thing, I have found it. It is from quincas, wicked things. Now on with watching the vid since I’m here! Loved that your hypermotard started !

    Great review guys excellent Job, for me its still the Tuono but I am biased I have a 2019, must admit I got the impression from the start you were both going for the Triumph. I wonder is there a bit of GB bias :-), no harm if there was, its normal.

    Great video guys. As I own a 19 Tuono factory and rode the RS yesterday was very interested in your views. Totally agree that the engine in the RS isn’t a patch on the Tuono. However the fit and finish of the Triumph and the smoothness makes it a great bike. The one reason I wouldn’t have one you didn’t mention. After an hour of riding it my legs were extremely sore and cramped, where as the Tuono has never done that to me. Be interested if you had the same experience. Cheers guys.

    Is the Tuono a naked bike though ? No its not is it ,it's still got a bikini on , Triumph has its jugs out and no pants . Triumph used to paint these bikes in mad colours , now all you get is grey and black . love the 2 man comparison chit chat , great review

    I owned a 2016 Triple R and loved it. It wasn't the fastest bike in the world, but it's tonnes of fun and very flickable. I've not ridden the 2021 (wife won't let me...) but I'm really sad to see they've started painting on the Triumph logo. I loved the raised lettering on mine; it was a classic touch.

    Enjoyed the video. The Tuono is about as naked as a winter sheep. You repeated my son's words when he sold his; 'It is too much for the road', and he went on; 'I can't afford to lose my licence'.

  • @richeeffingerbattle
    @richeeffingerbattle Před rokem

    Great video mates! I agree with your points. I think the ease of use of the Triumph’s power especially above 6k gets you moving quicker than you realize. I own one with a few mods like Air Filter, Decat Race Exhaust and a Unrestricted ECU Tune and let me tell you… It’s a rocket. I’ve found that I can launch harder by standing on traction/wheelie control. WOT from a stop, or exiting a corner and you can just lean on it and it keeps you sorted. I love it!

    Fantastic review Mr Chops, much appreciated! If only the Speed triples colours weren't inspired by John Major. I would love if somebody inside Triumph would explain their thinking behind the drab colours. Something more vibrant would swing the balance of trading up from my 2016 model

Thanks again for the great video and breakdowns…. and throwing a few little doubts into mind on the Tuono (which still hasn’t landed here)…. Still craving your detailed comparison of the Tuono and S1000R!!!😜😜 cheers mate!! 🍺🍺

  • @brunocarmona4958
    @brunocarmona4958 Před 3 lety +4

    As always a great review in this channel. I have been expecting this comparison eagerly. I own a 2011 Speed triple 1050, a 2013 Tuono V4R and a 2015 Street Triple Rx. I rode the Speed Triple 1200RS and the new Tuono V4 last week (and also the new S1000R). I agree with everything said except for me the 1160 triple engine is stronger (at least feels) in the mid range than the V4 from Aprilia. If I had to pick one of the two it would be the Triumph. The Tuono now feels a generation older which it is. The Aprilia still edges in sound and engine feeling but in everything else the Triumph is better. And with the new 1200RS I "don't need" to own a Speed Triple and a Street Triple because the 1200RS really is a Street Triple with a bonkers engine!

  • @mattnicholas9842
    @mattnicholas9842 Před 3 lety +1

    Great review as always, great bikes, i owned a Tuono V4 Factory for 8 months, and have done a few miles on the new speed triple, if you lived somewhere with great roads, virtually no traffic and no speed limits they’d be superb but in reality as an everyday bikes the whole current crop are largely useless, not very comfortable, loads of power you can’t use, snatchy and only really good above the national limit, and the fuel light will be on in a minute, the old speed was was a better road bike, the Tuono’s finish suffers quickly in the wet/ salt and it takes hours to clean… what are they for ?

    @yonniboy1 Před 3 lety

    I agree about the quickshifter/blipper on the Tuono, below 4/5,000 it needs a real shove which just feels like you're inflicting unecessary damage on the gearbox, I rode the new BMW S1000R the day before the Tuono and it was butter smooth (even changing down from 4th gear coming to a junction at virtually zero rpm) you felt total confidence in the shifter with not the slightest glitch. the Tuono's a great bike, sort out the shifter ,lose 15kg and it's back to the top of the tree.

  • @calloverpete1318
    @calloverpete1318 Před 3 lety +1

    It’s all very well but no reviewers ever ask what the design life of engines or, say, LCD dashboards or electric suspension is. That adds to real time ownership cost & depreciation.
    I was ready buy this latest Tuono but for a month the Forums and my local dealer have confirmed a “software” issue with this Euro 5 Factory where dashboard warning lights get thrown up that even the dealer can’t extinguish. Who’s gonna buy one knowingly? I think that’s why there’s already nearly new ones on EBay and auto trader from disappointed early adopters.
    The size of Triumph and the simplicity of conventional Ohlins may mean it wins long term for some rider paying his own maintenance costs.
