La Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS se presentó en 2021 como una evolución importante del linaje Speed Triple, que debutó originalmente en 1994 como uno de los primeros luchadores callejeros desnudos modernos. La 1200 RS sustituyó al anterior motor 1050 por un nuevo motor triple en línea de 1160 cc que producía mucha más potencia y presentaba un diseño más elegante con dos tubos de escape situados debajo del asiento y una electrónica avanzada. Destaca por ser una de las motos naked más avanzadas tecnológicamente de la gama de Triumph, y ha ganado numerosos premios y ha sido elogiada por su combinación de rendimiento puro y facilidad de uso diario.

Lo que los compradores deben saber
Strong Resale Value
The Speed Triple 1200 holds its value exceptionally well compared to competitors, typically retaining 75-80% of its value after the first year due to strong brand loyalty and limited depreciation on flagship Triumph models.
Watch the Throttle Bodies
Some early 2021-2022 models reported throttle body sync issues causing rough idle and hesitation, so always request full service records and verify if the dealer-issued software update has been applied.
Titanium Exhaust Standard
The RS variant comes with a lightweight titanium Öhlins-equipped package from the factory, a feature that typically costs thousands as an aftermarket addition and significantly boosts both performance and resale appeal.

Reseña de un comprador usado
"The best British naked you can buy used today."
$13,000-$17,500 usedThe Speed Triple 1200 RS is genuinely one of the most complete naked bikes money can buy used right now. That 1160cc triple pulls like a freight train from 3,000rpm and the Öhlins NIX30 forks are properly adjustable — not just marketing fluff. Used examples are holding value because owners know what they have, so don't expect bargain-basement prices. Budget for the first service history being verified; the throttle-by-wire system can throw codes if the previous owner ignored software updates. On the road it's surprisingly manageable for a 180bhp machine. Cornering ABS and the six-axis IMU genuinely earn their keep in the wet. Check the exhaust headers for heat discolouration indicating hard track use, and inspect the Brembo Stylema callipers for uneven pad wear. Fatigued front tyres on high-mileage bikes are a red flag — previous owners often push these hard. The riding position is aggressive but liveable for longer stints, unlike older Speed Triples. If the electrics are sorted and service history stacks up, this is exceptional value against new.
