And expect a much different version of the Street Triple series from its earlier siblings. The new Street Triple RS is much sharper and agile in context of looking while the complete package is still the same.

The headlamps which got DRLs have also integrated headlamp cowl just as Speed Triple 2017, belly pan which is body coloured and a rear seat cowl. The rear subframe is in the silver colour unlike the black colour of the S version and the red coloured in the R version.
