RIDE REVIEW I 2022 TRIUMPH SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS P108 But this bike just loves to propel itself forward. I'd run out of racetrack well before I'd ever run out of rpm in top gear. Funny enough, I didn't realize how much wind I had been pushing all day, sans any wind protection via fairings, until I woke up the next day and my neck was sore. It was worth it, though. The chassis is firm and quick in the direction changes, and the stock Ohlins settings are well damped for a smooth closed circuit. Man, this thing would work well on my local canyon roads in Malibu or The Crest! But I'd have to spend a few hours with the Speed Triple 1200 under normal street riding The Speed Triple's carbon- fiber is beautifully finished.
