Exhaust gasses now exit in a revised
three-into-one exhaust system that houses
a single catalytic converter and a new
muffler, helping pull down weight from the
center of the motorcycle and increasing
everything from acceleration to cornering
agility and braking performance.
The motor's performance is coupled
with four ride modes in the base model's
R form and five riding modes in RS
form—Rain, Road, Sport, Track, and a fully
configurable Rider mode, the latter of
which is missing from the R. Rider mode
allows you to get in there and change the
available traction, ABS and throttle maps
to anything on the menu, so if you want
a Road level throttle with no TC, you can
have it. Or Track throttle with full ABS, no
worries—the choice is yours. Each mode
has a dedicated throttle, ABS, and TC
map (traction control and wheelie control
are linked), with Rain mode limited to 98
horsepower (100PS).

SXT40 monoshock has
been around in Street
Triple guise since
2017 and it does its
job extremely well.
(Below left) Mission
control on the RS is
the little joystick on
the left handlebar,
just as it's been for
the last seven years.
Don't forget to get the
heated grips in the
accessories catalog,
the switch of which is
neatly hidden on the
end of the grip.
