New S model, but no new R. Mines just got rarer

New R model has finally arrived:

[Kwacky]

Is that a price drop?

[C00kiemonster]

Same as before i think.

[Kwacky]

I had it in my head that the R was about £9,300 and the RS about £10,300.

I might be thinking in Euros... I paid €8900 for mine.

[D41]

That bike looks sharp!!

[Cav]

I think I'm turning into a weirdo...

...I like naked Triumphs and Estate Cars

The RS was £1000 more than the R when I bought mine. The RS is still £10300 I think.

[C00kiemonster]

Interestingly they have dropped the TFT screen from the R. The screen is fantastic so i'm glad i got mine when i did!

I guess they've done that to save money

Thats how they got it back to £8900 i reckon.

It means none of the modes are customisable, plus you cant do navigation. The clocks just look so old and have been on Triumphs for years now.

[duke63]

It seems an odd model to have in the line up now that the new RS has the same midrange, unless the R is now slightly detuned.

[Kwacky]

I suppose there's some old stock they needed to use. It does seem a bit odd though. Unless you can upgrade to the new screen for say £400

[C00kiemonster]

Yeah - odd. You almost don't need it in the range now.

Still no cruise control though.

It is the Porsche 911 of the Triumph range though - never significantly changes, just evolves.

You could spend 10x the amount of money on a motorbike and not have more fun than you would on these.

Just been out for a thrash on mine. Its Fun with the biggest capital F ever. Epic!!

And there it is, the simple beauty of motorcycling, big fat capital letters, FUN

Could be a super naked, retro, crusier, supersport, adventure or anything in between. Motorcycling should be FUN

Ditto, just returned from 2hrs of therapy on the Street. Fabulous bikes
