Chase, you might be the greatest force in the riding community for promoting safe, good, enjoyable riding! I am glad to be a sub...thank you for the awesome vids like this!
The “whistle” the engine makes is the sound of the straight-cut gears of the engine’s balance shaft. It’s a very mechanical sound. I have a 2017 Speed Triple S and I absolutely love it. It’s comfortable and torquey and wonderful to ride. Not a super-fan of the headlights vs the older “bug-eye” look, but you can’t have everything.
Hey Chase and triumph. Just a heads up this video made me go and try out the speed. I'm now the proud owner of the 2016 speed triple. Great video, great company and amazing bike. Thanks Chase, your new mate from Australia, Ben.
I want one so bad. The new look is really really good on it. I saw the first one my dealer put together and I have to force myself to wait until the end of the year, but I think I'm going to do it...
I test rode a 2016 Speed T also. Nicest smoothest bike I've ever ridden. Super comfortable too. I've got an FZ-1 which has more power, but the Speed T was so smooth and comfy. Really nice. Great sound too.
Crazy thought +chaseontwowheels but have you ever considered being a DJ? You HANDS DOWN have the best intros in any motorcycle videos. The editing and song selection gets me pumped every time. Keep it up!
I love the Speedies, saw a new '16 in the flesh and loved it; Triumph did a great job with the new headlights. I had a '13 as a first bike which wasn't very smart, that one didn't have any traction control, but I rode the wheels off it with 7k miles in 3 months before I traded it in.
I have a 14 Speed Triple and they are fantastic! Best bike I have owned ( better than my old BMW K1200 R). If you get one you won't regret it. Peak power is everywhere!
My favorite thing about the Triumphs is the induction noise and that little whistle you talked about towards the end. If only they weren't so damn expensive hahaha
RSWalston why? For real? Why this any less than anything else? Listen guys, if you’ve NEVER ridden before lemme just say this, whatever you want to ride, take the MSF course first. Then, understand that bikes aren’t magnetized to the road. Before you even go into a turn, slow your speed according to how far into the turn you can see. When the turn comes, push into it with your arms and lean your body to the right of the bikes center and into the turn. NOTE* don’t twist the throttle in the turn more than what you’d twist while taking off uphill in the rain and adjust going up from there as your confidence goes up. Get full coverage insurance. Allstate just offered me $55 a month for full and that kicked the shit out of USAA js... I digress. Get this bike if you’re a mature beginner.
@@MrMann-gt1eh i get your point. But i cant agree with taking on a 1000cc torque monster as a first bike. As a new rider you wont have a the throttle control and stability to ride a bike like this. Here's what will happen, the beginner might make it clear through a few corners, gets more confident will hit the gas harder at the end of a turn, gets surprised by the power kicking in which will result in another backward motion of the body which is another yank on the throttle, front wheel will come up rider goes down hard... yes if you're real mature you might be able to drive a 1000cc bike as a first, but everybody has his crazy moments while riding and a bike with power like this will suprise a new rider and just throw them off balance
Chase i love how you keep improving your edits and production. You're putting out some really good quality production content lately, especially those first rides!
I rode one of their triples for 12 years, and I believe anyone who buys one will be giddy for the first year! The original was 955cc, but now it's a 1050.
I recently sold my 2007 R6 for a 2013 Triumph Tiger XC and I think I can feel the torque you were talking about in this video. I would love to try one of those speed triples too.
Nice to hear that in the U.S. they finaly realize that naked bikes are awesome 😁😎. I myself ride his little brother, a Striple R '14. Very superior in the twisties and so nimble. Glad you enjoyed your ride on a Triumph 👍👍.
despite being at a numbers disadvantage on paper against all its rivals, that triumph is still cool as hell. Love the way it looks (except for the headlights, gotta go back to the round ones, maybe with projectors in them) and you can't beat that triple sound!
Chase, I was coming from Blairsville GA to Cleveland GA today and I passed by the place on the mountain where you parked your bike in the beginning of the video and I started freaking out. I scared my dad because I started yelling OMG there it is there it is!! 😂😂✌️
Good review ,,, I live 3 miles from the Triumph factory ,,haven't seen one in the flesh yet but like everything except those big heavy pipes,, I own a 2011 speed triple and fitted a gpr low boy and it much improved and saved weight ,, I went from a zx10r to the Triumph to slow my self down ,,can only do 125mph on the speedy cos the wind blast ,,was to easy to do 180 on the zx10r ,,happy with my triumph and this looks good and the little touches they have added and style and attention to detail ,,yes it looks a good package ,,,great review Shane uk. Cheers
i literally watched this video in 2017 and because of it went for a test ride with the bike. it was awesome, but i didnt like the dashboard and the sound back in the way. first bike i drove 125 mph with. i ended up buying a sports bike, because wind protection and yolo. nowadays that i had my fun, i'm thinking about getting a naked bike and the newer version (not the 1200, the one before) seems like a perfect choice, because they improved on the dash and sound. maybe i'm going on a test ride again. thanks for the video, always glad going back to it for the walk-around and pov-driving experience!!
Still love my 2012 Speed R & 2017 Street 675 R. I’ve had 4 different bikes since getting it and it’s the only one’s that stay constantly in my garage. I can’t bring myself to letting them go bc I know the regret I’ll feel.
Chase IMO lots of guys ride on twisty roads on weekends... basically everyone i know with a bike, so i would suggest you do more reviews this way and less in town where u can't lean it or open it up much. Great channel bro keep up the good work 👌
You forgot to talk about the quick shifter tho!! I have a daytona and love the piss out of it, glad you got to ride the Speed! Try to snag a Daytona next time!
I LOOOOVED my '08 Street Triple. I only got rid of it because of the exhaust note at 6k. It was literally killing my hearing, even with earplugs. Harmonic resonance was too much for my ears. The only exhaust option was the Arrow full exhaust and I didn't have $1500 laying around for that plus the PC, so I opted to sell it for a different bike. Still, I would love to get another Triumph. Great bikes. Lots of character and sexy as hell. Gimme that Daytona 675! That whistle is endemic to the triple engine. Very distinctive. Oh, and when you mention that the fly screen and mirrors n stuff are stock, I believe they're only stock on the R, not on the standard. My Street Triple had that stuff as an option, so when I bought it from a private party, I was lucky in that they opted for the fly screen, mirrors, and belly pan. It looked really good.
Good brakes and power means you want tank grips like TechSpec or Stomp pads. Brembo monoblocs are soooo nice. Now that Triumph is using top notch components I might come back if Ducati doesn't do a new Streetfighter (that has a comfortable ridingi position). I upgraded the hell out of my old 955i. Comfort and torque are the winning combo. Exactly what bikes like the Speed Triple and Diavel are all about.
Torque, is why we love our Harleys. We don't care too much for buckets of horsepower, as long as the pull can tear off rubber with a passenger, full bags, big fairing, and all the radio/speaker power on the market when we leave the stop sign. We don't ride them because we like the track. We ride them, because we really love to just ride.
Was sooo sure and excited that you were going to say that your next bike was going to be a Triumph Speed Triple R................? But will have to wait and see.
Awesome first ride chase! 675r is my dream bike! See if you can ride one! I'd love to see the quality of the speed triple with the build of a supersport. Thanks, amazing editing dude. You inpsire the shit outta me. You're editing has really hit another level recently, keep up the awesome work dude!
No joke, that couple you passed @10:10 I could have sworn that's my parents on my dads bike. My mother rides on the back normally in a pink or fluorescent yellow long sleeve shirt with a leather vest and white helmet.... I'm pretty sure that's what I saw. My father rides a white Kawasaki Vulcan Voyager, heavy bike. I'd be kinda cool if it was my parents.
Speedie is one of my faves I currently have the same one you ride, bought couple months ago and I just love the way they ride especially when tune and suspension adjusted. I used to have an 09 speedie and did a lot of tune and suspension adjustments and it rode like it’s on rails, I miss my 09 raw no rider aids and response well with your input. I still haven’t ridden my new speedie in twisties yet I’m pretty sure it’ll be a lot nicer, I wonder if I’d still be able to get down and scrape my pegs lol great vid.
Thanks Chase for the detailed video about the bike and specificaly about the throttle response and power delivery. Way to go #TriumphAmerica, keep it up!
Time to first ride the Triumphs again Chase! Street Triple 765 and the Speed Triple in the city please. Get 'er done before the new Triumph Trident comes out
Finally! Some mountain twisties! Great bike this one. I have a street triple r 2013, and was thinking this or mt09 could be a good upgrade. Super duke or tuono would be too much of a jump maybe
Awesome bike man. and pff sexy cinematic intro haha! I will 'test-ride' and review (for video purposes:) this bike myself in two weeks, can't wait after seeing this. But i'm so jealous at the surroundings!!
Would love to see a first ride of the street triple. I didn't realize or know much about it at all till today when I just happened to come across it, and yet the insurance isn't so bad.
Do a first ride for an Aprilia RSV4. I picked up a 2014 Aprilia RSV4 R ABS a little over a month ago and it's been nothing but love. I like it much more than my R1 in its own special way.
It seems to ride a lot like my friends GSXS750 the smoothness of the engine, and the power in every gear because of the torque everywhere . and it's also a super naked bike
You really need to do a first ride on a daytona 675r. I have a 2015 and i absolutely love it. I believe my suspension and brakes are the same as speed triple that you are riding. But god i love that bike. Huge upgrade from my fz07.
These bikes are hooligan machines, Delincunts speed triple was one of the best bikes i've ever ridden.
fuck that canadian fuck
+Srib nice! Way to kill the FUCKING VIBE
+Srib someone crashed into him.
+Srib to be fair snowcat ruins any vibe
He got a new one.
The intro with the specs on the bike was my favorite part of the video! So clean and nice looking
Chase, you might be the greatest force in the riding community for promoting safe, good, enjoyable riding! I am glad to be a sub...thank you for the awesome vids like this!
Thanks, Triumph America, for lending this bike to Chase. Definitely informed my buying decision process.
with triumph hooking you up you should give the Thruxton R a look, torque for days
The “whistle” the engine makes is the sound of the straight-cut gears of the engine’s balance shaft. It’s a very mechanical sound. I have a 2017 Speed Triple S and I absolutely love it. It’s comfortable and torquey and wonderful to ride. Not a super-fan of the headlights vs the older “bug-eye” look, but you can’t have everything.
Pretty cool that OEMs are recognizing the power of TH-cam for getting their product out and kudos to chase in particular for getting their attention
Hey Chase and triumph. Just a heads up this video made me go and try out the speed. I'm now the proud owner of the 2016 speed triple. Great video, great company and amazing bike. Thanks Chase, your new mate from Australia, Ben.
I fell in love with this bike too buddy - I'm literally fighting the urge to trade in my Street Triple as I type!
me also haha. I only got mine in sept new as well.
Owning a Street Triple is a real problem in that it is so hard to justify getting another bike.
+John Sumser True that
I want one so bad. The new look is really really good on it. I saw the first one my dealer put together and I have to force myself to wait until the end of the year, but I think I'm going to do it...
I'm with you there. Love my Street Triple R, but every time I ride by the dealership I'm so tempted to stop and get a Speed Triple R.
I test rode a 2016 Speed T also. Nicest smoothest bike I've ever ridden. Super comfortable too. I've got an FZ-1 which has more power, but the Speed T was so smooth and comfy. Really nice. Great sound too.
Adda boy Triumph ! Keep supporting quality people like C2W and You're guaranteed dividends !
those intros for the bikes are so creative and so awesome! am I the only one who loves them?!
Yes, you are the only one.
Crazy thought +chaseontwowheels but have you ever considered being a DJ? You HANDS DOWN have the best intros in any motorcycle videos. The editing and song selection gets me pumped every time. Keep it up!
I've never saw how beautiful this bike is, until i saw a moddified with a single headlight.
So pretty :D
This is my bike five years on and I love it like you wouldn't believe.
"Oh baby ,its a triple "
Chase, your first rides have evolved into the dopest reviews on youtube brother.. awesome stuff..
A beast, a wheelie machine, absolutely love how they sound.
I love the Speedies, saw a new '16 in the flesh and loved it; Triumph did a great job with the new headlights. I had a '13 as a first bike which wasn't very smart, that one didn't have any traction control, but I rode the wheels off it with 7k miles in 3 months before I traded it in.
Very good first ride chase!! You covered everything that needed to be covered!
Tells you everything you would ask as a biker in his first ride videos, and covers everything you need to know in a full review.
Absolutely love the cinematic shots with the electronic dance music in the background on these first ride videos, keep 'em up chase.
Dude the cinematics where awesome and pointed out a couple of things I missed, nice. Would be a great standard for all FR
man I love these 3 cylinders bike. their high torque gives them that supermoto feel that it's just so awesome
I have a 14 Speed Triple and they are fantastic! Best bike I have owned ( better than my old BMW K1200 R). If you get one you won't regret it. Peak power is everywhere!
Triumph did a great job with their street/speed triple and their Daytona's. I love my D675, she never fails to amaze me
My favorite thing about the Triumphs is the induction noise and that little whistle you talked about towards the end. If only they weren't so damn expensive hahaha
Your production quality has improved so much over the years. Top notch work man.
Jesus Chase. I've been subbed to you since before 10K and finally went to your website. That is a very keep it simple CLEAN layout., very nice job.
"If you're a new rider these brakes will scare you"
If you're a new rider you shouldn't be taking a Speed Triple 1050 through the twisties lol
RSWalston why? For real? Why this any less than anything else? Listen guys, if you’ve NEVER ridden before lemme just say this, whatever you want to ride, take the MSF course first. Then, understand that bikes aren’t magnetized to the road. Before you even go into a turn, slow your speed according to how far into the turn you can see.

The brakes on these bikes are the worst. It is a well documented issue with these Brembos. Maybe his were one of the few that work like they should.
you should do all your first rides on this road. we all want to be on roads like this. love your first rides chase
Chase this bike fits you perfectly!! Just your style!
TriumphAmerica is the MVP ty for giveing co2w the speed triple
This series of videos is the most fun motovlog series to watch ever.
Also you should ride an H2!
Chase i love how you keep improving your edits and production.

That thing is BEAUTIFUL
one of the best FR videos you've done.Holy 2.0 was my favorite.But you did an awesome job on this video.Nicely done.
The details really make or brake a machine... That red stitching is just off the hook! :D
I have to say this was my favorite bike review i have ever watched..
This is the exact bike I'm buying on the 30th. Can't wait!
Nice to hear that in the U.S. they finaly realize that naked bikes are awesome 😁😎. I myself ride his little brother, a Striple R '14. Very superior in the twisties and so nimble. Glad you enjoyed your ride on a Triumph 👍👍.
Hi Chase, this is your best "First Ride" ever! I love your editing.
Mike
19:18 if I'm not mistaken, I believe all triples have that chirpy whistle. The FZ-09 certainly does.
despite being at a numbers disadvantage on paper against all its rivals, that triumph is still cool as hell. Love the way it looks (except for the headlights, gotta go back to the round ones, maybe with projectors in them) and you can't beat that triple sound!
Love the sound of this bike. I'm more of an off road guy but this is just awesome
Man this is definitely the most entertaining review I've ever seen in youtube... Excellent review... Keep it up
Chase, I was coming from Blairsville GA to Cleveland GA today and I passed by the place on the mountain where you parked your bike in the beginning of the video and I started freaking out. I scared my dad because I started yelling OMG there it is there it is!! 😂😂✌️

Now 20 years later all the supersport riding geeks are realizing how great naked bikes are. Welcome to the club!
i literally watched this video in 2017 and because of it went for a test ride with the bike. it was awesome, but i didnt like the dashboard and the sound back in the way. first bike i drove 125 mph with. i ended up buying a sports bike, because wind protection and yolo. nowadays that i had my fun, i'm thinking about getting a naked bike and the newer version (not the 1200, the one before) seems like a perfect choice, because they improved on the dash and sound. maybe i'm going on a test ride again. thanks for the video, always glad going back to it for the walk-around and pov-driving experience!!
I have a 2016 street triple rx. And I love it! It is my favorite bike of all time :D
Aces High Chase!!! Outstanding well done first ride!!!
The quality of this video is amazing !!
The pictures on your website are beautiful chase. Lol Yummi's R6 was sooo dirty.
Still love my 2012 Speed R & 2017 Street 675 R. I’ve had 4 different bikes since getting it and it’s the only one’s that stay constantly in my garage. I can’t bring myself to letting them go bc I know the regret I’ll feel.

For everyone that wonders where the whistle sound comes from, it's the straight cut gears on the balance shaft.

U do the best reviews on TH-cam den comes Cager. Always remember to say how high the bike is and if u can flat foot. Keep it up
Great video, bike sounds so cool and looks super stable with excellent build quality. Nice job Triumph!
in my case i don't really ride in the city and i work outside of hellen so i think its amazing that you are on the rbr
Great video Chaes, the Triumph Speed Triple is a great bike to ride...
The drop with the Triple was...WOOOOOOW!!!!!
The Triumph Speed Triple R is probably the best naked bike there is. That is my opinion though. Some don't like it's looks but I love it.
Totally appreciate our review!!
Went from a CBR600RR to a Street Triple. No regrets, I love my STR!
Hi bro,just picked up my speed r 2016 today,really luv it man 👍👍👍😆😆😆😉
Good brakes and power means you want tank grips like TechSpec or Stomp pads. Brembo monoblocs are soooo nice. Now that Triumph is using top notch components I might come back if Ducati doesn't do a new Streetfighter (that has a comfortable ridingi position). I upgraded the hell out of my old 955i.

Keep the first rides coming.
Torque, is why we love our Harleys. We don't care too much for buckets of horsepower, as long as the pull can tear off rubber with a passenger, full bags, big fairing, and all the radio/speaker power on the market when we leave the stop sign.
We don't ride them because we like the track. We ride them, because we really love to just ride.
Was sooo sure and excited that you were going to say that your next bike was going to be a Triumph Speed Triple R................? But will have to wait and see.
I love the torque in triumph bikes. The acceleration has gotten me out of a few tight spots. Oh how I miss my Daytona.
Awesome first ride chase! 675r is my dream bike! See if you can ride one! I'd love to see the quality of the speed triple with the build of a supersport. Thanks, amazing editing dude. You inpsire the shit outta me. You're editing has really hit another level recently, keep up the awesome work dude!
No joke, that couple you passed @10:10 I could have sworn that's my parents on my dads bike. My mother rides on the back normally in a pink or fluorescent yellow long sleeve shirt with a leather vest and white helmet.... I'm pretty sure that's what I saw.
My father rides a white Kawasaki Vulcan Voyager, heavy bike.
I'd be kinda cool if it was my parents.
The location is absolutely awesome..!
Speedie is one of my faves I currently have the same one you ride, bought couple months ago and I just love the way they ride especially when tune and suspension adjusted. I used to have an 09 speedie and did a lot of tune and suspension adjustments and it rode like it’s on rails, I miss my 09 raw no rider aids and response well with your input.

Thanks Chase for the detailed video about the bike and specificaly about the throttle response and power delivery.
Way to go #TriumphAmerica, keep it up!
nice riding.. If we have roads like these in Czech republic, that would be awesome
Time to first ride the Triumphs again Chase! Street Triple 765 and the Speed Triple in the city please. Get 'er done before the new Triumph Trident comes out
did anyone else find it weird not seeing a "suburban delinquent" on the triumph lol?
I was thinking the same thing lol
Trueeeeeeeee
I don't follow...
how can you not love the street and speed triples
love my 2015 streety
Mexico is nice this time of year
lovely bikes the Speed and street striples. much better audio than the Africa twin vid too
Finally! Some mountain twisties! Great bike this one. I have a street triple r 2013, and was thinking this or mt09 could be a good upgrade. Super duke or tuono would be too much of a jump maybe
The triumph triple has always made good midrange torque. It makes them very easy to ride.
That bike is so awesome even that bee @4:51 had to check it out
This bike would be in the top 3 for the bikes I want to ride the most. Maybe #2 under the R1
Awesome bike man. and pff sexy cinematic intro haha! I will 'test-ride' and review (for video purposes:) this bike myself in two weeks, can't wait after seeing this. But i'm so jealous at the surroundings!!
Would love to see a first ride of the street triple. I didn't realize or know much about it at all till today when I just happened to come across it, and yet the insurance isn't so bad.
fucking love the sound of a 3 cylinder engine
That whistly sound is lovely indeed
i like daytona 675 engine more, high rev sound is 👍👍👌
The whistley sound is from the transmission. It has straight cut gears in so thats what makes the noise.
I personally think this bike would sound like just pure bike sex. I also agree with chase on the exhaust, they are alittle but too big.
I have a 12' Triumph Daytona and it sounds orgasmic with the arrow full system!
Do a first ride for an Aprilia RSV4. I picked up a 2014 Aprilia RSV4 R ABS a little over a month ago and it's been nothing but love. I like it much more than my R1 in its own special way.
It seems to ride a lot like my friends GSXS750 the smoothness of the engine, and the power in every gear because of the torque everywhere . and it's also a super naked bike
This is the kinda bike that proves quotes like *"Drop a gear and disappear"* wrong u can disappear in any gear!
Great video and what a gorgeous bike....
nice change up on the surroundings mate
I hope Triumph is compensating you for that awesome into!!! Well done.
awesome first ride dude
You really need to do a first ride on a daytona 675r. I have a 2015 and i absolutely love it. I believe my suspension and brakes are the same as speed triple that you are riding. But god i love that bike. Huge upgrade from my fz07.
