In terms of design, the motorcycle continues to stay the same and the specifications and equipment stay the same as well. There is a slip-assist clutch as standard fitment along with riding modes such as road and rain. The motorcycle also gets ride-by-wire throttle along with ABS and traction control.

Triumph has done well to keep the pricing exactly the same as the BS4 model. Although, we believe that this is likely to be introductory pricing the company could revise the prices in a couple of months or so. In India, the Triumph Street Twin goes up against the Ducati Scrambler Icon and the Harley-Davidson Street Rod.
