      2020 Triumph Street Twin BS6 launch price Rs 7.45 lakh

      by

      The 2020MY Triumph Street Twin BS6 is powered by a 900cc parallel-twin engine making 65bhp and 80Nm of torque
      Triumph Motorcycles India has launched the entry-level Street Twin modern classic in 2020MY BS6 format. Ex-showroom prices start at Rs 7.45 lakh and increase by about Rs 13,000 depending on colour. There are three colour choices: Jet Black (no extra cost), Matte Ironstone and Korosi Red.

      It was only recently that the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the 2020MY BS6-compliant Street Triple R inline-3 naked sports motorcycle with a price tag of Rs 8.84 lakh ex-showroom. The company has already updated its other premium Bonneville modern classic models such as the T100, T120 and Speedmaster to BS6 specifications, alongside a few improvements in terms of aesthetics, equipment and performance.
      The Triumph Street Twin is one of the most affordable ‘premium’ twin-cylinder street bikes on the Indian market. Harley-Davidson’s Street 750, a popular alternative to the Street Twin, currently comes at an ex-showroom starting price of Rs 5.34 lakh. However, this could see a major hike since the American motorcycle maker plans to wind up local production at its Bawal (Haryana) manufacturing facility.

      Notable features
      Key highlights of the new Street Twin include 4-piston Brembo front brake (310mm single disc; 220mm Nissin 2-piston disc at the back), torque-assist clutch, single-pod semi-digital instrument console, riding modes (Road & Rain), TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System), dual-channel ABS, switchable TCS (Traction Control System), etc. When it comes to styling, the motorcycle gives complete justice to its ‘modern classic’ tag.
      Triumph Motorcycles’ entry-level choice rides on 100/90R18 (F) and 150/70R17 (R) tyres shod on cast aluminium alloy wheels. The motorcycle is built on a tubular steel cradle chassis, supported by 41mm forks at the front and twin shock absorbers at the rear. Both offer 120mm of suspension travel.

      It weighs 198kg dry and packs a 12-litre fuel tank. At a seat height of 760mm, the Street Twin is one of the best accessible premium middleweights for beginners.
      Engine & specs
      Powering the 2020MY Indian-spec Triumph Street Twin is a 900cc liquid-cooled SOHC parallel-twin engine. It churns out 65bhp @ 7,500rpm and 80Nm @ 3,700 while mated to a 5-speed transmission. Compared to the previous version, the brushed dual exhaust system has undergone some modifications to meet BS6 emission norms.

      At present, Triumph Motorcycles has eight products in its Indian portfolio. The range starts from Street Twin BS6 and goes up to the longitudinal inline-3 sports cruiser, Rocket III (costs Rs 18 lakh ex-showroom). More

      2020 Triumph Street Triple R BS6 India-launch price Rs 8.84 lakh

      by

      The new Triumph Street Triple R is more responsive with excellent low- and mid-range torque characteristics
      Triumph Motorcycles India has launched the all-new 2020MY Street Triple R BS6 at a starting price of Rs 8.84 lakh ex-showroom. The British marque has already launched the higher BS6-compliant Triumph Street Triple RS in the country, at a starting price of Rs 11.13 lakh ex-showroom. The ‘R’ is essentially a mid-spec ‘RS’. Triumph Motorcycles India claims that its latest offering is much “more accessible and affordable than before”.

      Shoeb Farooq, Business Head of Triumph Motorcycles India, states that the Indian motorcycle market’s ‘premium middleweight segment’ is growing at a rapid pace and is becoming increasingly competitive. He believes that the new Street Triple R would be a strong contestant in this genre as well as a perfect option for riders wanting an agile sportsbike with “racing DNA”. Its power plant is derived from the proven Triumph Moto2 portfolio. Primary rivals include the KTM 790 Duke, Kawasaki Z900, Yamaha MT-09 and BMW F 900 R.
      Changes & improvements
      For its 2020 model year, the Indian-spec Triumph Street Triple R features a refreshed bodywork complete with new flyscreen, full-LED twin headlamps, mirrors, air intake, exhaust and tail section. The middleweight is offered in two colours: Sapphire Black and Matt Silver Ice. Diablo Red + Aluminium Silver decals, alongside red accents, stay common. It weighs about 168kg (dry) and has a fuel tank capacity of 17.4 litres.

      Braking duties are carried out by Brembo four-piston radial monobloc callipers (twin 310mm discs) at the front and a single-piston sliding unit (single 220mm disc) at the rear, which is supported by a gullwing swingarm. The motorcycle rides on Showa 41mm USD forks and a piggyback reservoir monoshock. Both suspension systems feature fully adjustable preload, compression and rebound.
      The 17-inch cast aluminium alloy wheels are shod with 120/70R17- and 180/55R17-section Diablo Rosso III tyres at the front and rear, respectively. Other notable equipment include three riding modes (Road, Rain and Sport), bidirectional quickshifter, slip & assist clutch, semi-digital instrument console, ride-by-wire, dual-channel ABS, traction control, etc.
      Furthermore, riders can choose from over 60+ OEM accessories for better styling, comfort and safety. A performance-focused Arrow exhaust system is also included on the list.
      Engine & specs
      Powering the 2020MY Triumph Street Triple R is a BS6-compliant 765cc liquid-cooled inline-three engine churning out 116bhp @ 12,000rpm and 79Nm @ 9,350rpm. The engine is relatively more responsive and better on low- and mid-end torque thanks to 7 per cent lower rotational inertia. The 6-speed transmission has shorter first and second gear ratios. More
