Featured 2018 Speed Triple Rs – Ownership Thread

Should be picked up/delivered (depending on weather) this afternoon. They were just waiting for the rain to stop long enough to do the PDI ride.....

 

Out here in SA we are still waiting for prices to be released and stock to arrive. What I was told is that we will not be getting the S model for now but only the RS. I usually sell my bikes on consignment thereby insuring that I get maximum back as appose to trade in value which normally is a low ball at best.

Very nice looking bike, would prefer the low boy exhaust but that's personal preference, might get a test ride on one when I take mine for service.

 

SC were quick to get an exhaust out for the Street 765 when it came out so you would imagine that you won't have to wait long.
It's great having a new model out as it always pulls a crowd in the early days, the flip side of that is having to wait for the after market goodies to catch up.
Must admit I would like the auto blipper for down shifts on my Street, no doubt that will come on the 2019 model to give them an excuse to bump the price up another grand!

 

You could get a exhaust company to make you a little link pipe for the low boy, shouldn’t be too difficult

 

Low boy end can and link pipe, rather than full system?

 

Haven’t heard the sound tbh, desperately need to take one out soon for a test ride, anyway of getting through to those little Allen’s to remove the baffles? Or is it drill out rivets job!

 

Best way!

Hello. Can you tell us if the new triple has the that "Burble" sound some of the older models have when you let off the gas?
