My wife's Street Triple spent Christmas 2015 in our lounge when brand new. Better than having a tree. That 765 RS looks gorgeous
Outy Dave, saw this bike in the flesh this week and oh my I nearly bought the thing on the spot. What a beautiful machine.
Outy for sure
Picked up my RS 765 in cosmic yellow 2 days ago
What a bike ! Enjoy Dave
what a stunner!
For stem mount, u can sand down the portion that was stuck, you really dont need to sand a lot and with some pressure it will slide right into. I would say phone placement at the center is way nicer than mounting on the handle bar
Mirrors Inny👍 hope you feel better soon. Looking forward to more adventures in the New Year.
Outy for me Dave bike looks stunning keep up the great vids 👍
Just to be different, I'd go uppy. 😂
Those hi-def close up pics show the lovely quality of fit and finish on that Trumpet. Great attention to detail. 👍
Great vid . I’d say you will save a few lads from madness with this one . Said it before but it is the best colour choice going in the new line up
Dave, this is a thing of beauty. Pleasure to watch, photography is on the ball. 👌 the video was 16 minutes, but how long have you actually spent staring at it? lol. I hope you really enjoy it, can’t wait to see it moving. Cheers for another great video.
[Edit to add] Michelin Road 6, never had more confidence in a tyre.
Lovely bike Dave ,hope the weathers kinder in the new year, never nice taking a new bike out in shxx weather!! having fitted power leads on many bikes I learned the hard way about routing them. I see you took the lead over the top yolk, I think you might be best routing it forward and under the top yolk and then along the side of the bike as it might rub and fray when you turn the bars!
Just a thought!! Happy riding keep up the great work.
That's a tasty machine Dave
Beautiful bike Dave! That wedding ring is well secured on the finger 😂
Oh yes, I’m a keeper!
legend mate
I'd go with OUTY Dave. Look forward to your first ride.
That’s a really nice looking bike can’t wait to see it on the road, looks good next to the Piano. For the mirrors I would go Outy, alternatively what about inny but underslung, that way your shoulders don’t get in the way. I did wince when you said you removed the bolt with pliers, get you self a socket set and spanner’ for Christmas 😊Cheers.
In South Africa we get the tools in a little Triumph branded pencil case which sits under the rear cowl. Reason for this - I was on a track day and a bloke on an RS had one of the allen keys work loose and find its way to the battery, arced across the terminals and set the bike on fire! It was pretty dramatic and probably would never happen again but still... I have a Moto2 and we get the suspension adjuster tool too - even though the Ohlins need an allen key and are super easy to get to with the clip ons. I'm an inny.
Lovely bike, try the Uppy look.
I like the radiator guard but would take off the sticky thing on the seat cowl before it leaves a mark on the paint.
Outy for me, it looks more natural. Beautiful looking bike.
Great looking Street Triple RS in this yellow colour scheme.
Mirrors have got to be facing outwards so you have max view behind. The inwards position is just wrong.
Does your house insurance cover your bike inside? I would double check to make sure.
You need to get yourself a tyre changer with all your bikes. I have a few so got the Olmax one from Poland £220. Fabulous piece of kit very well made and the guy who makes and sells them is brilliant. I didn't get surcharged for taxes on delivery, but you being in Ireland and the EU definitely wouldn't pay extra. Makes changing tyres a doddle. Literally takes minutes. Then all you have to do is balance which also takes 10 minutes max. Then back on the bike. No taking them to a bike shop and paying extortionate sums to get them swapped and having to book or wait for them maybe to be done or not depending on their work load. So satisfying as well to change your own bikes' tyres. A tyre changer soon saves you cash. Don't be fooled by YT videos telling you can change tyres with levers. It's hard work and you likely end up damaging your bike's rims in the process which will be €€€€€€ to repair. I know I did it.
Looking forward to you getting this RS out of the road. Surely you are not going to use it in winter with salt on the roads? It would soon kill it. Nevertheless you need to give it a thorough coating of ACF50 to protect it.
I got Triumph heated grips for my Speed Triple RS when I bought it from a dealer and they only cost £199.
300€ seems a little bit steep.
ATB.
Looking sweet 👌. Mirrors on my 21 are outti and work a treat. Just a quick note, when I picked my bike up from the dealer he said remove the front suspension adjuster from under the seat cowl and put somewhere safe. These apparently work loose when riding and disappear. Finding a new one is like rocking horse s#@t.
Good tip there. Thanks!!
To anyone who “lost” this adjuster: look for it below the battery. It always fells from its place and slips to there.
Wouldn’t buy anything off Ali Express (bitter experience) but I spend a fortune getting a new bike ready for the road, great job on a cold Winter day. You must have a big house and a very understanding wife to keep the bike inside, enjoy.
PS. Outty best😉
Evotech makes a mount for your Quadlock that attaches to your handlebar mount in the center. Goes for about 50-60 pounds
Tail tidy and a smaller number plate is a must for me on any bike. On my 2015 BMW s1000r i use Michelin Road 5's. I find them excellent. Theres a "6" version out now too. Happy motoring,and if i ever see ya out and about ill say hello.
Funny, I’ve just had the bike registered today and the number plate looks bloody awful at normal size. That shall be the first new change! I’m getting the Road 6’s put on at the first 1K service. I love those tyres. 👌🏍️
Be careful if you intend to fit a tail tidy. Was watching a video a couple of days back and the fella was saying the tail light lens gets battered with small stones from the tyre. If you intend to remove the sticky tyres it comes on, it may not be an issue. I have the same Cosmic yellow one as you, all i've done is an evotech radiator guard and removed rear pillion pegs and fitted blanking plates. Love the bike, don't like the dashboard, don't like the bar end mirrors and don't like having to pull the clutch in to start it.@@WheelieGoodTV
I would totally get the Triumph pressure sensor. I have the unit on order for my RS. Also got the heated grips.
I may put the Chigee system on this bike. It has tyre pressure monitoring as well as tyre temperature also. 👌
@@WheelieGoodTV I went for the Triumph system because of aesthetics. Also going to pickup the connectivity module to not have a phone mounted to the handlebars.
Just wish there were more options for aftermarket exhausts with maps.
The bike is looking fabulous Dave, although not being able to ride it must be driving you bonkers 😄😄
True that!
Thoroughly enjoyed this video and your first ride one too Dave. My red RS arrives in 6 weeks. I also have used the Fit2Go for a few years, until one of the sensors died. Sadly, they don’t actually make them anymore, but are supposedly bringing out a new product this year. I opted for the Triumph TPMS, which I’m hoping will be good. I’m looking forward to your next video about the RS and your thoughts.
Cheers
Mark B
Thanks Mark. Interesting to hear about another Fit2go system. Enjoy your bike, I think it is simply the best bike I’ve ever ridden. Unreal!🤗👌
Outty is the correct way. Inny can even strongly limit the adjust range of the mirror.
You have the patience of a saint Dave, adding those little touches then not being able to take the bike out for a ride until the 2nd of jan would be torture 😭😂. Regarding the mirror position i suppose it depends on how broad your shoulders are, how bulky your jacket is on the shoulders and how much visibility you have with them in the “Iny” position that you might have to keep them out for a better field of vision. Anyway 24 days to go Dave you may get yourself an advent calendar to count down the first ride 🏍💨💨😂
That calendar idea is BRILLIANT Trev!! Consider it done. 🙏👌🏍️
Super Video - making the bike yours although I did wince at you using pliers on a hex head 🤦
Inny here, mainly because I do a lot of lane filtering ! Otherwise I would have left them Outy because you see bit more that way :)
I would add side guards and gear guard on it
I will warn on those michelin yokes, a fella I know had one still reading 38 when his tyre was absolutely shredded sitting on the side of the road :D Outy definitely.
Oh no! I'd never heard of that happening Gorilla. I'll be more aware and thanks for the heads up. Hope Stateside is treating you well!
I’m #TeamOuty myself
You must have a very understanding Mrs. Mine is too, but I think a bike in our hall would be a step to far! 'Outy' looks far better and extra inches is always good! I presume you will get rid of those sticky labels on the tank? I bought a new Speedmaster this year and CAREFUL use of a heat gun soon had them removed.
Passenger footpeg delete looks good blanking plates only cost £35
Subscribed I also have bought a new Triumph Street Triple RS and love the bike and ride around the beautiful Island of Cyprus who have just opened a new Triumph Dealership in Limassol! Hence my purchase of this amazing machine! Glad I bought the RS as I had originally put a deposit down and ordered the R model! I ordered the lowering kit also as the RS was a little taller for me but I am also very happy with my purchase what a fantastic machine this is! Are you thinking of putting a performance exhaust and air filter on the bike in the future? I would be interested in any other modifications you have in mind? I have just fitted a Puig front screen and think it looks great with that rather than the triumph oem one!
I’d love to ride around Cyprus on mine! No other add ons planned and I love the stock exhaust so I’m keeping that too. 👌🙏🏍️
Outy!😁
Bin that rear bit of the tank protector 🫣
Defo Inny
Outy, Dave.
I have a 2022 just take the handlebars off, lift them up a little bit and slide it in. It will fit perfectly.
Extremely nice bike. I'd love one. I just may treat myself next year? My financial advisor (lovely wife) will have to be consulted.
Keyring should've come with the bike. Cheeky triumph
Also
Bridgestone battlax s22 or 23 will do the job however the 23 is still fairly new so maybe the 22
Prefer ‘inny’ look for mirrors. Nightmare filtering with them fitted outwards as the bars are already quite wide.
Allen keys will be under the seat cowl mate, thats were they are on my 2022 model anyway. As in clipped to the bottom of the seat cowl itself.
Edit, further long in the video now and see you found it :)
In order to keep power flowing to the bike do I remove the negative or positive terminal first when installing the battery tender?
Always remove the positive first.
Hi Dave, Hope it has a good coat of AC50 for the 2nd Jan, or is there no salt on the roads?
It will do bud. It’s heading off for full ceramic coating and ACF50 very soon. 👌🏍️
My 2023 Street triple R already had the optimate lead fitted as standard, tucked just under the rear seat towards the battery are you sure its not already fitted ?
I’ll check that. Thanks for the info. 👌
Got to be OUTY! I have wide shoulders and I noticed that the mirrors were 80% filled with me during my initial test ride, but they were turned in.
Q: what are your thoughts on a small windscreen?
I started out doing motocross, then sport bikes, but I've been the past 20 years on ADV bikes. So I was pondering a small screen.
Great video!
-Cheers
Hi, personally I don’t like the screen as I think it spoils the look but that’s only my opinion. The airflow is so smooth that it doesn’t need the windscreen anyway. 👌🏍️
Outy bro see more for blid spot
Hey Dave, would any of those mods affect your warranty?
Hope not.🤔
Would be petty lol
Outy for me
Michelin Road 5 or 6.
For me, Out. In looks wrong (but I see why folk do it).
Fortunately, the agonizing dilemma could find its compromise in the fact that there were 2 mirrors....
Outy
You bought a new 765 RS, and you bought the cheap knock off protectors from ali express instead of buying the real EvoTech stuff that they ripped off the design but not the quality? Sorry mate, it makes no sense to me.
Outy, I like to see more. I got the same advice from the Triumph dealer as others. Remove the fork adjuster tool from the seat and put it somewhere safe.
Aliexpress? Dave😒
Yep. It arrived within a fortnight.
I find it crazy that people buy nice bike and then go and put cheap Ali express parts on them, support the UK companies like evotech and r&g
Why should I support UK companies when I live in Ireland and have to pay ridiculously high import taxes because the majority of the UK voted to leave Europe? I’ll be choosing the best deal for me thank you very much!
@@WheelieGoodTV Damn straight. Does he know Triumphs are made in Thailand ?
@@douglasalexander4348 🤣🤣👌
Inny. You can see further up the road behind you. That Yellow is a great colour in the flesh.
What the heck's the matter with you why'd you lie to us the beginning of the video said you'd show everything with a picture video at the end of this video you did not do so ended with your t-shirt how come you didn't do a little video showing what you installed on the bike completely what's the matter for you next time get it done
