Triumph Speed Twin 900
The Triumph Speed Twin 900 has a top speed of 185 km/h (estimated), produces 65 hp and weighs 216 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.
De Triumph Speed Twin 900 werd in 2019 geĂŻntroduceerd als een moderne herinterpretatie van de iconische naam Speed Twin, die oorspronkelijk beroemd werd in 1938 toen het parallelle twin-ontwerp van Edward Turner een revolutie teweegbracht in het motorrijden. Hij werd gebouwd op het Bonneville-platform en deelde zijn 900cc-motor met de Street Twin. Hij werd gepositioneerd als een meer prestatiegerichte retro-roadster met verbeterde vering en een sportievere zitpositie. Het bleek populair omdat het klassieke Triumph-styling combineerde met moderne betrouwbaarheid en dagelijkse bruikbaarheid.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"A characterful, honest middleweight that rewards everyday riders handsomely."
$6,500-$9,000 usedThe Speed Twin 900 is one of those bikes that sneaks up on you. It's not trying to be the fastest or the most aggressive thing in the class â it's just genuinely pleasant to ride, and that counts for a lot. The 900cc parallel twin pulls smoothly from low revs, the riding position is relaxed without being lazy, and it looks properly classic without feeling like a costume. Triumph built this thing to be enjoyed, not endured. Used examples are generally solid, but do your homework. Check the final drive chain and sprockets â owners who skipped maintenance are out there. Pre-2021 models had minor fueling hiccups at low throttle openings that Triumph largely sorted with software updates. The switchgear feels slightly cheap for the price point, and the mirrors are famously useless. Nothing catastrophic, just niggles. For the money on the used market, you're getting a characterful, capable middleweight that suits city riding and weekend blasts equally well. It won't win a track day, but it'll make you smile every single time you fire it up.
