I use only 256gb Sandisk Extreme for this camera as it consumes space at double the rate of the Hero 7. If you are like me, I try to never turn the camera off when I’m out as you can guarantee that’s when something will happen and you’ll miss it. You will require 2 x 256gb cards for a full days riding if you’re on tour.

I use either 128gb Sandisk Ultra or 256gb Sandisk Extreme SD cards. (I find the quality equally as good whether I use the Ultra or the Extreme cards.)

I am 69 next birthday, I will be selling my H1 ZXR750 to buy one of these. Never too old!
Never too old George. Enjoy fella 🏍️👍
You’ll regret it , I have one I hate it ! You can buy mine if you want 👍🏾
@@pcarts232 why don’t you like it?
@@georgehatcher8867 Hi , it’s a great bike but it’s a waste because you just can’t enjoy it imo, unless you’re in the countryside on open roads
@@pcarts232 that applies to most bikes.
Love your sense of humor and the review. I'll be buying one of these soon I think......
Thanks bud. Enjoy your new bike when you get it 👍
Done 1000 miles on my 1200rs and it's been an incredible experience. Zero issues. Amazing bike.
1500 on my '22RS no probs. Adore it.
I’m on 2500 now. Still flawless.
Im going to test drive it tomorrow, im debating between this and the zh2 se, and maybe just maybe a used streetfighter v4, what do you guys think? I am also a shorter rider (5'6) just to throw that in there.
Bought my first Speed Triple RS 1200 June 2022. (previously had a MT-10 2018). Thé Speed triple been perfect. Did 20 000km and just traded it for the exact same Speed triple new 2023 model same black saphir Color.
I had no issues with the bike other than quick shifter replaced on a recall. Was occasionally not shifting down. The new part been working perfectly.
Suspension was quite hard on manufacturer setting.
Raised the preload on the rear spring to direct the weight a little more toward the front and basically put all other settings to minimum and it has been perfect for road riding set in this manner. Now winter in Canada and looking forward to get the new Speed triple out in the spring! 🏍👍
This has to be the best quality video , you truly are producing the best videos on you tube , your opening with music and mega close up photography of the bike is epic , just what we need to see . Jack your bloody epic at this work . Rock on mate
Thanks Carl, much appreciated buddy 👍
@@motomogul yeah amazing close ups and attention to detail 🙌🏼
Me on the Street Triple R matte orange first generation after owning a Hayabusa for some years and now hearing, POP POP POP BOM BOM BOM RRRRRRRR ... through the Leo Vince exhaust. Naked bike from Triumph could be really fun to ride and i do it a loooooooot. 😀🤭👍
Gotta be done Fonzie 🤩🏍️😂👍
Till autumn i owned a wonderful Speed Triple 1050 RS (Model 2020) and now i'm awaiting my new 1200 RS
in spring 2024. You can imagine, how excited i am. Many thanks from northern germany for this video!
I have had the RS for 12 months. Its a second bike for nice weather days. Good points effortless speed, cornering and steering stability, plush but firm suspension needs dialling down to min for me im 20st and is ok, brakes fab. Bad bits frame gets hot, finding neutral is a bit hit and miss , laggy dash. Overall its a keeper for me as its just so effortless performance. It certainly has street cred from other road users.
Interesting points, thanks Paul 👍
That’s a really nice looking bike. Cheers Jack great vid and exceptional taste in music as always 👍🏻
Thanks Mr B. I wondered what people would make of that track. Suits the bike though, and what a bike. Loved this one 😍😍😍🏍️
Worse bike
🙃
@@abhishekparakh4159
Another great review Jack, Lovely bike and i like the colour as well
Great review. Jack. Bike looks and sounds great 👍
Best baked ever made - for the road
I own the 2021, it’s a blast🎉😂. If u keep it serviced it’s awesome
I’ve owned bikes in similar power territory (4C8 R1) but the performance from this 1160cc triple somehow feels absurd tbh.
EDIT: forgot to say the video is great, thank you
Thanks bud 👍
I’ve bought one today ‘23 under 1000 miles. In orange - can’t understand why they took that colour option off. I test rode one a few weeks ago - best bike I’ve ridden, for me.
Enjoy your new bike James 👍👍👍🎉
@@motomogul Thanks - I remember seeing your review at the time and searched it out to watch again 👍
Had 1200rs for almost 2 years 5000 miles 3 track days trips to the coast all good only once did it let me down when filling up couldn’t open fuel cap had to switch it off for a couple of minutes then it opened
How is the low end Power in this bike is it good for the streets that's what I'm worried about, it looks more like a track oriented bike I'm only all about the Street riding coming from a Hayabusa I was just worried about not enough power will this bike satisfy me and does it weely easy in first and second without traction control.
It a good road bike electrics do stop it wheeling
Nice bike Jack, needs a sport touring version…bigger tank, small fairing. Induction roar is more important now that stock exhausts are so quiet. Is that a cable clutch, surprising?
Yes, I was surprised by that too. Presumably to keep the weight down 🤷🏼♂️
@@motomogul Then again not much need for a clutch with such a good quick shifter…
The 1200 RS is a lovely bike but IMO lacks the character of the 1050 Speed Triple to the point that the 2023 Street triple is outselling them at a ratio of over 3 to 1.
The Triumph 1050 engine was magnificent 👍🏍️
It’s soulless and a total waste of time in a country where 23 mph is actually an offence,fucking joke, great bike …shit country to ride in Nanny state Uk 👎🏽
765 has kess character then 675😫i like 675 more✊🔥
I owned 3 1050's , 05, 11, 15...(and every engine of Speed Triples in past) and my 22 1200 is way better. Street Triple... or mini Speed Triple can't hold a candle to the Speedy imo. But maybe some people want a small bike?
you should show the rider pov more and better
Better???
ECU required replacing at 600 miles. Thank goodness covered under warranty.
Is that a known problem with this bike? No one has mentioned it previously.
Nice video. Looks good. Ahh yes you did spank it a bit lol 😀😃
A bit, but maximum I could manage was still only around 8,000 rpm on the road. Long way to go until this one runs out of puff! 💨💨💨
@motomogul ohh yes I can imagine it can lol. 😄
What is that opening song/singer? Subscribed.
Cheers Dave. I get all of my music licence free from Epidemic Sound. I can’t remember what I used on that but Shazam usually gets it right 👍
I would have nothing else ×6❤
I own and love it except for the battery charge after 3 days of no start.
Battery tender required!
I always use one on my GS. I don’t like the battery level to get too low if I don’t ride for a few days.
Gotta be a battery issue I’d think. I have a ‘22 RS, among several other bikes and I go weeks without riding it and it’s never dead when I start it.
There’s a new carnival red one. Seriously? After I just added a new bike….😢. I can’t win. 👍🤪🏳️🌈
Pretend it’s not available in your country 😉😂👍
@@motomogul ok that made me laugh. 🤣
hm, intresting how long you can ride on it , before pains hit you? :DX No touring? 🤣
@@GameWinner85 Not to mention the wind blast of a naked bike 👍
your not going to use that power on the road.....
I’m selling mine 😢Buy the Street Triple instead, riding the Speed Triple will seem amazing for a while but after a few months you’ll find it pointless and irritating to ride, you can’t really go above 7000 rpm , it’s got no steering damper so it’s sketchy at speed, the suspension is horrendous unless you’re on a brand new road, it’s jerky in traffic,the mpg is crap £15 will run out very quickly, the CC takes about 1/2 to engage, the Screen is super slow , other than that it’s ok 👍🏾 good luck
Thanks for the feedback bud. Interesting to hear what owners of these machines think after owning them for a while. I have the Street Triple to review in a few weeks as soon as I have space in my schedule. I’m looking forward to that ride 👍👍👍
@@motomogul 👍🏾yeah awesome review you did here bro, you’re gonna love the street Triple Rs , I had a ride on the yellow one for about 1/2 hour it’s a great bike, less bhp obvs but it’s smoother with the fuelling so more practical, the 1200 just wants to “ go “ all the time (which is good in one way ) But also annoying when you’re in a 20 mph zone….basically the WHOLE of London! 😂!
