Thoughts On The New Street Triple RS

The new Street Triple RS will be the motorcycle that will offer a lot of power for a street naked along with a host of electronic aids. As far as the pricing is concerned, since the previous generation Triumph Street Triple RS was priced at Rs 11.13 lakh ex-showroom (Delhi), we expect the company to price the new motorcycle at a slightly higher price than the old one in India.
