As you would expect, the special edition Speed Twin features different aesthetic and specification upgrades over the base model, including a new paint scheme.
The bike gets the beautiful Polychromatic Blue colour scheme, inspired by the blue Triumph Thunderbird 6T, immortalised by Marlon Brando’s Triumph in the iconic 1953 movie, The Wild One.
Triumph also added some nifty hardware, including a higher-spec Ohlins piggyback twin-shocks, billet machined aluminium clutch and alternator covers with a dark anodised finish.
Specific to the new model, the bike also features machined Breitling branding.
Sejak dilancarkan secara global pada September tahun lalu, Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RR sememangnya mencuri perhatian dengan rekaan dan gaya yang serba unik.
Menariknya, kurang enam bulan selepas diperkenalkan, motosikal dengan gaya ‘supersport’ itu telah pun mendarat di Malaysia menerusi Fast Bike Sdn Bdh.
Menurut pihak Fast Bike dalam satu kenyataan hari ini, Triumph Speed Tripler 1200 RR ini kini telah tiba di Malaysia dan ditawarkan pada harga RM119,900.
Dibangukan dengan platform Speed Triple 1200 RS, model baharu ini menawarkan ciri jauh berbeza dengan barisan model sedia ada.
Komponen paling mencuri perhatian adalah penggunaan suspension jenis separa-aktif, Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 boleh laras secara elektronik menggantikan fork inverted NIX30 dan monoshock TTX36 yang terdapat pada Speed Triple RS.
Sebagai jentera dengan rekaan lebih agresif ala sportsbike, Speed Triple 1200 RR ini juga datang dengan handlebar jenis ‘clip-on’ yang 5 inci lebih rendah dan 2 inci lebih kedepan berbanding RS.
Triumph turut mengolah semula ergonomik tempat duduk bagi menawarkan tunggangan lebih agresif.
Aspek rekaan juga mencuri tumpuan, terutamanya panel depan yang kini menempatkan lampu LED berbentuk bulat tunggal berbanding tetapan dua lampu yang biasanya diguna pakai pada model Triumph lain.
Bahagian fairing juga tampak menarik dengan pendekatan ala retro-klasik namun cukup garang sekaligus menjadikan Speed Triple RR ini sportsbike lain dari yang lain.
Bagaimanapun, model baharu ini masih mengekalkan enjin tiga-silinder 1,160cc DOHC dengan penyejukan cecair yang sama terdapat pada Speed Triple RS dan hasilnya menawarkan 177hp pada 10,750rpm dan 125Nm pada 9,000rpm.
Transmisi 6-kelajuan juga dipadankan dengan bantuan klac assist dan slipper yang membantu menyalurkan kuasa dengan lebih lancar bagi menanggung input agresif dari penunggang.
Antara ciri lai yang turut dikekalkan dari RS adalah lever Brembo MCS dan kaliper Brembo Stylema yang dipadankan bersama cakera brek 320mm depan dan 220mm belakang.
Ciri elektronik lain ditawarkan:
5 mod tunggangan
wheelie control
cornering ABS
traction control
quickshifter
cruise control
paparan TFT 5″ dengan fungsi My Triumph
Menariknya, pelanggan yang membuat tempahan awal sehingga 31 Mac ini akan menikmati pakej servis 2-tahun.
The highly-anticipated 2022 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RR finally arrived in Malaysia and is priced at RM119,900.
The official announcement was made by the brand official distributor in Malaysia, Fast Bike Sdn Bhd.
According to the statement, the introduction of the Speed Triple 1200 RR – including the Tiger 1200 and Tiger Sport 660 – will set a new benchmark in their respective segment in Malaysia.

The new Speed Triple RR is based around its naked cousin (the Speed Triple RS) but with additional electronic suspension and semi-front fairing.
While it may feature the same frame, subframe and fuel tank, the Speed Triple RR is an altogether new motorcycle.
The most notable change is the introduction of the semi-active Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 electronic suspension, replacing the NIX30 inverted fork and TTX36 twin-tube monoshock on the RS.
Other significant revisions include more aggressive ergonomics thanks to 5 inches lower and 2 inches forward clip-on handlebars and raised footpegs.
Moreover, the use of a single circular LED headlamp paired to a retro-ish front panel, and Red Hopper/Storm Grey colour scheme creates a striking image.
Nonetheless, underneath the elegant looking sports bike sits the same liquid-cooled, DOHC, 1,160cc triple-cylinder engine with 177hp and 125Nm that powers the Speed Triple RS, including a 6-speed gearbox with slip and assist function.
Other exciting features include:
Brembo MCS lever
Brembo Sytlema calliper

Harga rasmi tersebut sekaligus menyaksikan pihak Triumph Motorcycles Malaysia menunaikan janji memastikan model tersebut ditawarkan harga bawah RM50 ribu dan hanya lebih RM6 ribu berbanding model Trident 660.
Tiger Sport 660 dijangka bakal menarik ramai peminat sepertimana yang dipamerkan Trident 660, yang sentiasa kehabisan stok sebaik mendarat di pusat pameran Triumph Motorcycles Malaysia.
Dibangunkan dengan enjin tiga silinder 660cc sama yang terdapat pada Trident 660, Tiger Sport tampil dengan elemen motosikal ‘sport tourer’ sekaligus menawarkan ciri praktikal dan serba boleh.

Triumph Motorcycles has officially unveiled the TE-1 electric motorcycle prototype, marking the company first step into an electrifying future.
You are no longer looking at a mockup drawing; instead, the beast in the photo is a fully working and operational prototype of Triumph’s first electric motorcycle.
While Triumph might apply changes in the coming months, other major components, including the attractive single-sided swingarm and exposed frame, will remain.
The completion of the project also marks the end of the collaboration between Triumph, Williams Advanced Engineering, Integral Powertrain Ltd, and WMG at the University of Warwick, funded by the Office for Zero-Emission Vehicles.
The TE-1 combines the industry’s various innovations with Triumph leading the pack with:
frame and rear-subframe
panels and wheels
final drive system including transmission
Gates Carbon belt drive,
Ohlins USD cartridge forks,
Ohlins RSU,
Brembo M50 monobloc callipers
Triumph Motorcycle control software
Meanwhile, Integral Powertrain Ltd provides the final powertrain with a scalable integrated inverter and combined motor with silicon carbide switching technology and integrated cooling.
WMG, on the other hand, ensure the project is on course to deliver the intended performance and durability.
According to Triumph official statement, the test result also exceeded the benchmark set by the UK Automotive Council for 2025.
The main objective behind Triumph’s TE-1 project is to develop a competent electric motorcycle that will become the company’s pillar in electrifying the future and subsequently enhance the credibility of British industry and design.
Triumph expected the test to be fully complete in the summer.
Selepas sekian lama Triumph dan Bajaj menoktahkan perjanjian kerjasama, akhirnya motosikal sulung hasil kolaborasi dua jenama itu dikesan menjalani ujian jalan raya di United Kingdom.
Menariknya, gambar ‘spy shot’ itu mendedahkan beberapa perkara, pertamanya model sulung itu bukanlah motosikal yang diinspirasikan daripada Trident 660 seperti yang didakwa sebelum ini.
Sebaliknya, jentera ujian itu mirip model Triumph Scrambler 1200.
Keduanya, kerjasama dengan Bajaj jelas kelihatan pada model tersebut, terutamanya penggunaan enjin satu silinder serta beberapa komponen lain antaranya cakera brek jenis radial dua-pot dari ByBre, ciri sama terdapat pada Dominar 400 UG dan KTM 390 Duke.
Beberapa perkongsian atas talian juga mendapati motosikal tersebut mengguna pakai paparan TFT yang sama diambil dari KTM 390 namun komponen itu mungkin akan ditukar.
Setakat ini belum dapat dipastikan kapasiti enjin yang akan menggerakkan jentera tersebut namun hampir pasti babitkan sesaran antara 350cc hingga 500cc.
Meskipun berkongsi beberapa komponen dari KTM 390 dan Dominar namun model akan datang itu jelas menampilkan DNA sama seperti Scrambler 1200 antaranya lampu LED jenis bulat, ‘bar-end mirror’, dan ekzos tinggi.
Bagaimanapun, dengan model ini dijangka akan dipasarkan sebagai model 2023, mungkina akan terdapat beberapa naik taraf lain yang akan dilaksanakan kelak.
Baby Scrambler ini bakal menjadi motosikal sulung oleh Triumph yang menawarkan kapasiti kecil dalam usaha untuk menyaingi segmen itu yang cukup sengit ketika ini. – MCN
The collaboration between Triumph and Bajaj Auto is finally upon us as the test mule motorcycle was caught doing rounds for the first time.
From its looks, the upcoming Baby Triumph will not be based on the Trident 660 or any of the Hinckley’s naked range, but instead, the test mule looks similar to the firm Scrambler 1200 lineup.
We can see that the test mule features some similar components and parts to those found on the Bajaj-built KTM 390 Duke.
According to YouTuber MOTOBOB, who came across the test bike, the dash is lifted straight from the 390 Duke, and while it could change later during the production stage, it shows how closely Triumph and Bajaj are working.
Other similar components taken from the 390 includes ByBre radially-mounted two-piston brake callipers.
While we know the bike runs on a single-cylinder Euro5 certified engine, the finer details, including the engine capacity (rumoured to be between 350cc to 500cc), is still unknown.
Although Bajaj is responsible for the engine development and manufacturing, the motorcycle will carry Triumph’s badge.
Looking at how aggressively Triumph’s is developing the new bike, we assume that the finished product will debut later this year.
The baby Triumph could find its way to rival other small capacity single-cylinder machines like the 390 Duke, BMW G 310, Honda CB300R, Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and Bajaj’s very own Dominar 400 UG.
Triumph Motorcycles telah pun merasmikan Tiger 1200 generasi baharu bagi tahun 2022.
Menurut pengeluar motosikal Britain itu, pembangunan Tiger 1200 kali ini memfokuskan dalam menghasilkan jentera ‘adventure-touring’ yang lebih ringan dan berkuasa di samping menyuntik spesifikasi berkelas dunia.
Hasilnya, Triumph berjaya mengurangkan berat sehingga 25 kilogram berbanding model sebelumnya dan 17kg lebih ringan berbanding pesaing lain.
Di tengah-tengah pembangunan Tiger 1200 terletaknya enjin dengan ‘crank T-Plane’ baharu yang sebelum ini diperkenalkan pada varian Tiger 900.
‘Crank T-Plane’ membolehkan enjin menghasilkan ‘rev’ yang lebih efisien dan bertenaga ketika rpm rendah dan tinggi.
Enjin 1160cc itu kini menghasilkan 147hp pada 9,000rpm dan 130Nm pada 7,000rpm – naik 8.5hp dan 8Nm berbanding generasi sebelumnya.
Bagi tahun 2022, Tiger 1200 kini tampil dengan varian GT dan Rally serta versi Explorer yang tampil dengan tangki 30L serta menawarkan ciri elektronik tambahan.
Tiger 1200 GT dan GT Pro dilengkapi suspensi Showa separa-aktif elektronik di samping tayar 19-inci depan dan 18-inci belakang manakala Rally dan Rally Pro didatangkan bersama tayar 21″ depan dan 18″ belakang dengan rim jenis ‘wire-spoke’ (lidi) tubeless.
Sementara itu, Tiger 1200 Explorer pula lengkap dengan ciri keselamatan ‘blind spot detection system’ seperti yang terdapat pada Ducati Multistrada V4, KTM 1290 Super Adventure S dan BMW R 1250 RT.
Perasmian Tiger 1200 ini juga merupakan isyarat Triumph Motorcycles dalam memberi cabaran kepada populariti BMW R 1250 GS dan R 1250 GS Adventure yang ketika ini merupakan motosikal ‘adventure’ popular serata dunia termasuk di Malaysia.
Bagaimanapun, berdasarkan ciri ditawarkan di samping spesifikasi berkelas dunia antaranya brek Brembo Stylema dan Triumph Blind Spot Radar System hasil kerjasama dengan Continental, Tiger 1200 2022 mungkin memegang mantel sebagai ‘The GS Killer’ yang terbaru.
Triumph Motorcycles has reached a historic milestone by unveiling the millionth motorcycle built since the company’s return in 1990.
To celebrate the landmark achievement, the folks at Hinckley revealed a one-off custom-painted Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro.
Frankly, we thought the Bonneville would have been the ideal choice considering that it is an undisputed British icon. However, understanding how successful the Tiger 900 range since it introduction in 2019 including making an appearance in the latest James Bond franchise, the Tiger 900 Rally Pro is indeed the perfect candidate.
“Everyone at Triumph is incredibly proud to have played a part in achieving such a momentous moment in the modern history of this iconic brand.
“Over the 31 years since we re-launched Triumph with a new line of British designed motorcycles in Cologne in 1990, we have shared so many great moments with our fans across the world.
“From returning to the TT champions arena, to entering the MotoGP paddock with our Moto2 Engine partnership to supporting the biggest global riding event and its great cause for health and wellbeing with the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride, to mention only a few.
“Triumph’s success has always stemmed from the passion and commitment we share with our riders,” said Triumph CEO, Nick Bloor.
The special one-off Tiger 900 Rally Pro will be on display on Triumph’s stand at this year Motorcycle Live Show at the NEC.
