Description

In this video, I pit the new 2025 Triumph Speed Twin RS against its less expensive sibling, the standard Speed Twin 1200. With fancy paint, upgraded Brembo brakes, and higher-spec Öhlins rear suspension, the RS certainly looks the part—but is it worth the extra two thousand pounds? Or is it all just pub bragging rights? Join me as I take both bikes for a spin, compare how they ride, and share my honest verdict. 🏍️ Have Triumph nailed the modern classic formula again, or should you stick with the standard version? Let's find out...
