Triumph reveals high-spec 2026 Street Triple RX and Moto2 Edition

Race-influenced variants adopt Öhlins hardware, revised ergonomics and distinctive finishes

Triumph has doubled down on its middleweight performance line-up, unveiling the Street Triple 765 RX and the limited-run Moto2 Edition — two models aimed squarely at riders who like their naked bikes with a bit more track intent.

Both machines build on the highly regarded Street Triple RS platform, bringing premium suspension, race-style ergonomics and a healthy dose of Triumph’s Moto2 know-how. For Aussie riders who enjoy a fast road blast or the occasional track day, these two new options slot neatly into the sharper end of the middleweight segment.

Central to the upgrade is the move to fully adjustable Öhlins NIX30 forks, matched with an Öhlins STX40 rear shock. The set-up mirrors what many riders fit aftermarket, but now it’s straight off the showroom floor. Combined with new clip-on bars that shift the rider into a more aggressive stance, the RX and Moto2 Edition lean further toward track ergonomics than any previous Street Triple.

Braking is handled by Brembo Stylema calipers and an MCS adjustable lever, while Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP V3s provide the grip. Wet weight remains at 188kg, keeping the bike light and nimble.

Under the tank sits the familiar 765cc triple making 130PS and 80Nm — figures unchanged from the RS.

765 RX returns

The RX badge has history with Triumph fans, and it’s back for 2026 after a long break. Sitting above the Street Triple RS, the new RX picks up a machined top yoke, an RX-branded seat, a laser-etched silencer, and a colour scheme designed to stand out: Matt Aluminium Silver with Diablo Red wheels and subframe.

The look nods to the original Street Triple 675 RX, a bike many riders still think of fondly.

Moto2 Edition: strictly limited

For collectors — or anyone chasing something a bit more exclusive — Triumph will offer the Moto2 Edition, capped at 1000 units globally. It features carbon-fibre panels, a Moto2-branded seat, clear-lens taillight, a carbon silencer end cap and a numbered billet-machined top yoke.

Colour options run Mineral Grey or Crystal White, each paired with a Triumph Performance Yellow rear subframe and matching wheel striping. Even the TFT dash gets a Moto2 start-up sequence to drive home the connection to Triumph’s race program.

Triumph’s involvement in Moto2 since 2019 continues to shape its road bikes. The 765 triple used in the championship has now clocked more than 1.7 million kilometres in race conditions and helped set dozens of lap records. The data gathered feeds directly into the production engine, and Triumph is keen to highlight how much of that development ends up in the Street Triple family.

Tech and equipment

Both models run a 5-inch TFT display with an intuitive layout, plus rider aids including Optimised Cornering ABS, Cornering Traction Control, Track ABS mode and Triumph Shift Assist. These systems aim to make the bikes confidence-inspiring without overwhelming riders who prefer a more direct feel.
