2013 Triumph Street Triple R Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Engineered by Triumph for the naked motorcycle segment, the 2013 Triumph Street Triple R pairs a 675 cc (41.2 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 106 HP (77.4 kW) at 11,700 rpm while maximum torque reaches 68 Nm (50.2 lb-ft) at 9,200 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 157 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (9,200 rpm) and peak power (11,700 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Street Triple R measures 183 kg (403 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.58 HP/kg (1.73 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 800 mm (31.5 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,410 mm (55.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 17.4-liter (4.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
