The much-awaited 2023 Triumph Street Triple 765 will finally be launched on June 16. The motorcycle was all set to go on sale in March, although an internal reshuffle in the company caused the launch date to be pushed to June, as carandbike had reported in May. We expect the Street-Triple R to be priced at around Rs 10 lakh while the RS variant could be priced at around Rs 11.5 lakh to Rs 12 lakh (ex-showroom).

The 765 cc engine gets a new combustion chamber and pistons, increasing the compression ratio
The new Street Triple’s 765 cc engine now offers an output of 128.2 bhp @ 12,000 rpm and 80 Nm of peak torque @ 9,500 rpm in the RS variant, along with 118.4 bhp @ 11,500 rpm and the same torque output in the R variant. The increased power comes as a result of the brand’s learnings from supplying engines in Moto2. Triumph has also added a new combustion chamber and pistons, increasing the compression ratio. Globally, Triumph also previously offered a limited-edition Moto2 variant of the bike, which as of now has been fully sold out.
The Street Triple’s rivals in the Indian market upon its launch will be the Ducati Monster, BMW F 900 R and the Kawasaki Z900.
