NEW DELHI :

Iconic British premium motorcycle brand, Triumph motorcycles launched the all-new Speed Triple 1200 RS in India at INR 16.95 lac today. The Speed Triple RS is the British marquee’s latest addition to its Roadster line-up taking the India Roadster portfolio to three models – Street Triple RS, Street Triple R and the Speed Triple RS.

The Speed Triple 1200 RS will be available in limited units in India with the first batch consisting of only 30 motorcycles, which will be delivered via bookings on a first-come-first-served basis; deliveries will begin March end. Post the first batch the bookings will be serviced with a delivery timeline of July / Aug 2021.

Speaking on the announcement, Mr. Shoeb Farooq, Business Head - Triumph Motorcycles India said: “The urban roadster segment is one of the larger segments in the premium motorcycle industry in India and a growing one. It is also one of our focus segments where we currently enjoy a very competitive position with our Street Triple R and RS offerings in the mid-engine capacity segment. With the launch of the new Speed Triple 1200 RS, we are extending our Roadster line-up in the liter class category; and with the upcoming Trident launch in the next couple of months, we will further strengthen and complete Triumph’s roadster line up for India.

There has been a consistent demand from our customers to bring this legendary bike back to India and given that the new Speed Triple 1200 RS is going to be a new benchmark in this segment, we decided to do just that. The Speed Triple 1200 RS is definitely a revolution with its technology and ergonomics that impart the motorcycle a character, oscillating seamlessly between an urban roadster and a performance track machine.”
