With it now serving as the base, it goes to show how far the line has gone. It doesn’t seem too long ago that the R model was the highest performing in the Street Triple family. Semantics, we know, but a point worth mentioning.Īs far as the individual models are concerned, here’s what you can expect from each: Street Triple 765 R For the US and Canada, bikes will be available starting in Spring 2023, making these technically model year 2024 motorcycles.
