Triumph Motorcycles has launched the updated 2025 Speed Triple 1200 RS in the Indian market, and it’s ready to redefine performance in the naked roadster segment. Priced at ₹20.39 lakh (ex-showroom), this latest iteration brings subtle yet significant improvements in power, handling, and electronic precision — all aimed at enhancing its razor-sharp performance credentials.
More Power with Free-Flow Exhaust
At the heart of the new Speed Triple 1200 RS is the familiar 1,160cc inline 3-cylinder engine, but for 2025, Triumph has given it a bit more breathing room with a new free-flow exhaust system. The result? A slight yet meaningful power bump — the engine now produces 183 BHP and 128 Nm of torque, making it one of the most potent machines in its class. The motor continues to be mated to a slick 6-speed gearbox, with a quickshifter ensuring lightning-fast gear changes.
Electronically Tuned Ride with Öhlins EC 3.0 Suspension
For 2025, Triumph has taken handling and ride precision to the next level with the inclusion of Öhlins EC 3.0 electronically adjustable suspension. This high-end setup continuously adapts to road conditions and riding style, giving the rider supreme confidence whether on twisty roads or track days. Complementing the new suspension is a steering damper, ensuring greater front-end stability at high speeds.
The bike rides on lightweight 17-inch alloy wheels, now even lighter than before, and wrapped in Pirelli Supercorsa V3 tyres — tyres known for their excellent grip and track-bred performance.
Updated Electronics with More Rider Control
The Speed Triple 1200 RS was already loaded with advanced electronics, but Triumph has fine-tuned the package further. In a noteworthy update, wheelie control can now be adjusted independently from the traction control system — offering riders more nuanced control, especially during aggressive riding.
The suite continues to include multiple riding modes, cornering ABS, lean-sensitive traction control, cruise control, and a full-colour TFT display.
Final Thoughts
The 2025 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS doesn’t reinvent the formula — it refines it. With slightly more power, lighter wheels, upgraded suspension, and smarter electronics, it pushes the boundaries of what a hyper-naked streetfighter can be.
At ₹20.39 lakh (ex-showroom), it remains a premium offering, but for riders who demand track-level performance with everyday usability and aggressive styling, the Speed Triple 1200 RS continues to be a top-tier contender.
