Speed Triple 1200 RX features exclusive graphics

The RX gets a carbon-fibre, titanium-made Akrapovic exhaust

The RX variant of the Speed Triple was unveiled earlier this year. It’s largely based on the Speed Triple 1200 RS but gets a few notable upgrades over it. For starters, it has a sportier rider’s triangle, with the clip-ons set lower and farther from the rider. Additionally, the foot pegs are more rear-set and positioned slightly higher. It also sports an exclusive neon yellow-black colour scheme with RX graphics.

Braking duties are handled via a twin-disc setup paired to Brembo Stylema calipers with a Brembo MCS radial master cylinder. In this application, too, the Speed Triple retains the Ohlins Smart EC 3.0 active suspension, accompanied by an Ohlins SD EC steering damper.

Powering the RX is the same 1,163cc inline-3 liquid-cooled engine, producing 183hp at 10,750rpm and 128Nm at 8,750rpm, mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The RX also features a special Akrapovic end can. Although this exhaust is made of carbon fibre and titanium, it hasn’t resulted in any weight savings. At 199kg (kerb), the Speed Triple 1200 RX remains one of the lightest litre-class streetfighters.

Priced at Rs 23.07 lakh, the RX costs Rs 1.31 lakh more than the ‘Standard’ Speed Triple 1200 RS, which retails at Rs 21.76 lakh. The RX is limited to 1,200 units worldwide, and Triumph hasn’t disclosed the total number of bikes allocated for India.
