Best reviewer ever! Feel like I know what I want after listening to Neeves. Brings out the nuances and selling points of each bike. Nice contrast to all the reviewers out there full of general praise of little use to who is trying to navigate in the wonderful world of motorcycles

I always think that Michael does the best job in defining the niche each test bike fits into. He knows what kind of rider is going to enjoy whatever bike he is talking about. All riders are different and I appreciate the fact that he is trying to give us the profile of type of rider each bike was built to satisfy. There is no "best bike" per se. There is only the "best fit" for your requirements. Thanks for that.

The only reviewer worth listening too these days is Mr Neeves. Sets the standard all others aim for

I love the way neeves dissects a bike; the good, the bad and the competition in there’s too. Never a bad review. Always makes me think about something I didn’t think about before. Well done!

Neevesey is the best reviewer. Very wise. I always appreciate the background info he gives about the history of a bike & where it sits relative to the category & competitors. I would love a new ST1200RS... But pricing in Australia is rude.

Neeves is the only bike reviewer I can happily listen to talking for 20 mins. Great review and what a machine!

Hello Michael, your comparison between all the bikes of the supernaked category is just GOLD 👍 Thank you very much. Very useful to guide us for a purchase. Precise enough even though I love to learn more about technical details. Now, waiting for the icing on the cake with the Tuono V4 factory review 😍 Take care.

now here's a gentleman who does his product preparation and has set what he is going to say. No "ums", "ahs" and cliches of the would-be reviewers. I'll listen to him any time

this isn't first ride, this is a thorough review! very well done, always a pleasure to listen to Neeves' reviews

Nice realistic review Neevsy. I'll be sticking with my 18 RS thanks. Hope this sells well though. Cheers from Melbourne.

Well done Neevesy One of the best reviews of any bike I've seen on YT. I'm not a Triumph hero, but I do like them. And once again, Neevesy has spoken truth on the matter. Exceptional awareness and detail. Thanks MCN.. and Keep up the good work

Great review. Michael gets the details across in a way very few others can. Hats off sir.

Lovely bike, typically great review. The most helpful in picking a bike I've seen - much appreciated sir.

Always a balanced in depth review from Michael and a pleasure to watch. Great stuff 👍

Really appreciate your review technique, simple, direct, relaxed and thorough.

Top stuff, by far the best review of the 2021 Speed Triple 1200RS I've seen so far.

Brilliant review and really impressed with Triumph for jumping into the ring with this one. Can't wait to see it at my local dealer

Great video! Just wanted to say we here at Viking Bags really appreciate your content! Keep up the good job!

I love Neevesy's reviews because he talks about things like feel and character, and all the things I can't know myself just from reading the spec sheet.

Thanks Mike, I like this new style of reviewing - as in giving your thoughts a day or so after riding the bikes. It's so easy to get caught up in the excitement of being on a new generation machine that you aren't able to take stock and have some rational thoughts. Being a newish 1290 SDR owner (after 5 Trumpy's inc a S3), I don't think that I should test ride one of these as it's bound to cost me a lot of money and a at least month sleeping in the kennel. :D

Great review which helped me enormously as it’s real objective. First time I’ve seen Michael Neeves as a reviewer but will follow him by now. He does a real amazing job!

High power? Great for 2-up, eg Busa is a fabulous 2-up sport tourer. I can't wait to see this engine in a revised Tiger Sport, for 2-up. Please, Triumph, bring us a Tiger Sport 1200!

This is the second review that says a negative about the ride quality. A bit of a let down because this bike will spend most of its time on the bumpy road. Adaptive suspension would have sorted that

Love it how you explain the bike - you can really understand the feel of riding one.

The best motorcycle reviewer on KZread.

Great to hear a balanced review of this new bike, I maybe a little bit biased as I have an 18 RS, but some of the other journalists gushing over the bike’s power and track ability, missing the point of how is it as a day to day road bike which most people probably use them for! They also gave glowing reviews of the previous model, yet seem to suggest how bad it is now !! Great video and detail especially against its rivals in this class 👍

A great review, telling me all I need to know..keep my 2018 speedy RS . Thanks👍🏻

Hands down the best motorcycle reviewer. I like the video even before I watch it! I have got so much info/skills from watching Michael's videos. Sounds like an awesome naked bike 👌

Love the style of your reviews, very informative and competent. Thumbs up

Lovely review honestly felt as if I've been out on the bike myself

Great review Neevesy! One of the few journalists a rider can trust these days. A very nice, complete and nuanced review!

I've see So Many of Ur Videos.. U are So Articulate & to the Point !! Fantastic Review (as Always) & What a Way, to Describe How the Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS REALLY Feels / Behaves !! Thanks again :)

Absolutely in love with my Street Triple 675r I couldn't imagine it with 70 more hp this bike must be madness...👌

From abroad I loved to listen to your explanations; it's a wonderful bike both to ride and to look at.

Excellent, well thought out, well presented and researched review. Thank you.

Just got a 2020 S3(outgoing model). Dream to ride. So glad I picked one up before they are all gone. A true masterpiece to the Speed Triple name.

Great review. Really like that you're honest about the good and not so good. This was high on my list but I don't think it is anymore. Thanks again.

I have been waiting for the review since day one. As always spot on.

Best reviewer by far ! great job as always...

Great review, when I reviewed the bike in last two weeks also I found for the road it just was missing something that sense of occasion. My standard street bike I ride daily is the MT10SP so coming from that I was a little disappointed. Agree for track amazing but at the end of the day it’s a road bike so needs to be more road focused like the earlier Speed Twins were. Thanks Michael 👍

Thx for the exeptional good reviews you provide. Best!

Great review Neevsey. Shame that Triumph have made the new Speedy a little too track orientated with that setup. I have just watched a full review of the new 1100 Tuono Factory and the guy could not stop gushing over it. He actually went as far as to say it was the best bike he has ever tested. And it looks gorgeous. As ever a tremendous job of describing what the new Speedy is all about. Take care and ride safe.

Great review like always, very curious to see you test riding the new Tuono 👏🏼👍🏼✊🏼

Nice Video, nice expressions from you, at least the end with the clip ons. ;-) greetings a T509 rider from Germany :-)

Superb review. 👌Was thinking of buying a 2021 but hardly ever manage to get to the track. Now assessing 2020 options. Thank you for the guidance.

As always Neevesy gives another excellent review! As a hick from Missouri, USA, I could listen to him talk all day about square root tables or antique coffee pots. He wins my "Best Online Bike Reviewer" award hands down both for his knowledge and insight as well as his accent (yes, you guys in GB have the accent). Chopsy would be 2nd!

Great video at last a review were the old speed triple rs hasn't been slated over the new speed triple rs 🇬🇧👍

big 👍 for MCN.. for showing full review of triumph rs1200👍🇮🇳

The introduction was very well laid out

Best Mc reviews on KZread, hands down.

Great review and honesty about the bike! Seams like Triumph hit a big one with this for the more sporty riders. They nailed the chassi, TFT screen, engine and powertrain. Its a ripper with those nice tyres.

Love this review. Just fantastic content. Don't generally bother with the paper these days but this vid has earned my sub'.

Just bought the 2022 rs. Picking up Wednesday. My uncle has the same bike. Can't wait to pick her up.

Great review. And, more to your point about going too far, I've got an '09 Speed I've put several thousand miles on. It is a total blast to ride. And even with a measly 130hp, it has *always* been more than powerful enough on the street. But even that version has one of the sweetest engines ever made. But like this one, the ride is always very firm, always ready to attack. And the ergos made my last 500-mile trip...challenging. It might be because I have a VStrom 1000 to choose from, but it is still spot-on for the days when you just want to play.

Love MCN ❤️. Sounds like a nice bike, Cheers Neevesy 👍🏻

Great video! Best review of this bike on youtube

Great watch buddy, thankyou ❤️

Superb review. Greetings from Ecuador.

Excellent informed test with great comparisons to its rivals. Telling it like it is!

Great review, I have no interest in change my 2018RS for this one, it’s every thing I need and more 😍

A fascinating and honest review. This guy really knows his stuff. Outstanding video.

Think I'll stick with my 2014 street triple 675r, it's all you need for the road and still great fun to ride. No BS electronics just abs.

really helpful review, and could not have made my buying decision without it :)

Enjoyed every bit of the video. One correction I have to point out is that the new S1000R does not get the shiftcam from the RR, it gets the same engine as the 2020+ S1000XR. I can deal with a bit of suspension stiffness on the 1200 RS, hoping to pick one up soon.

Your the man , best on the web. I was thinking about selling the my S1000R for the new Spedd triple, but where i live i need heated grips and dynamic damping. The road is a nightmare in Québec , holes, bumps, cracks.

Great chat on bike ...its the bird sanctuary he was in that got me birds tweeting lol ...but great spill on bike

Great test as always Neevsy, agree with your summary except the new Beemer S1000R isn’t getting the shift cam is it? At least not yet, mistake? Full test soon hopefully. Great choice out there now, well done Triumph for getting stuck in to the fight at the upper end. MCN still the go to tests

I've watched a bunch of new S3 reviews. This one, honestly is comfortably, the best of the rest.

Loved the old one ☝️ agree with everything you said , another good review as ever , stay safe

Totally agree with you!! The Middle weights are the new Goldilocks bikes. Nice to have Halo bikes to show off new tech that will end up on their lower bikes. The Streetfighter is 208 horsepower but around town are you hiting 12,000 rpm plus.

Those first line of the video is so true. Most of the people dont use the bikes for track days and they just want a well rounded awesome looking and riding bike with some good numbers to back it up. I just got myself a Street Triple R and I am so impressed how this 765cc engine feels so much like a litre bike. Smooth and sounds awesome. I have even gone so far to start a little motovlog to capture my experience with this bike. So far I am super impressed. This one is one I need to go and test ride some or other time. Liked and subbed.

Yeah agree, I have the Speed Triple RS and at first tbh I didn’t like the suspension but it’s an absolute blast 💥 i love it and I wouldn’t swap it for anything!

You are spot on!! I have both the Super Duke R and the Streetfighter V4 S. To be honest they are much to much for the road as you said! I think I enjoyed my MT09 much more!! I'd love the SDR and the SFV4 rather with more torque and less speed! More to enjoy on the road and not to go to a track.... It is getting stupid now! Who want to start to enjoy a bike at 9000 rpm and up?? Regards!!

TheJWC56 : you are totally right but unfortunately a lot of guys are "retarded" they think the more powerful bike is the best. They think like kids. I wonder if they have already riden on a 180 hp bike with the throttle wide open. And that's even without talking about all the guys never going above 6000 RPM because they are too scared. All they can say is "THE BEAST" on youtube ahah.

I had an insane BMW S1000RR. I stepped “down” to a BMW S1000R, which was for me, a far better bike. Mainly due to the immense torque it had! I did track days at Phillip Island on it & it’s handling there was also brilliant! I moved on from the S1000R late last year here in Australia primarily due to our over draconian speed laws. Now I own a BMWR18! Love it!😍 Cheers & great review Neevesy from Down Under.🇦🇺🍻 P.s. Stay safe with covid mate. 🙏🏻

Great review, very informative!

Best editor on two wheels

What an excellent review! Thanks.

Excellent review - as an owner of the 1050, you have just confirmed two things in my mind: 1. if you don't do track days (how many people buy a bike with this primarily in mind?), this is the wrong choice for a Triumph urban Sports bike, and 2. its got more power than can realistically be used on the road, and the older versions are a far better choice. Shame that Triumph took such a successful blend of power, looks and plush road abilities, and turned the (only new) version into a primarily track-focused bike that, it seems doesn't have the charm, all-round abilities and enjoyment that the outgoing versions had. I suspect that the depreciation on these will be high when people who buy them are disappointed that they aren't as everyday-friendly and UK road usable as all the previous the 1050's. Long live the 1050's!

Neevesey is best and most knowledgeable presenter by far! Look forward to your next vid sir...

Great review. Thank you .

Excellent review. I was hesitating between the Street Triple R and the Tuono 660 and was wondering whether the Speed Triple was worth considering too as a comuter and semi-urban day out machine. But I guess it is too much bike for the daily bread run.

Great review. Am currently looking at one of these or the Ducati Street Fighter as a replacement of my MT10SP.

Great review!

I absolutely love my 07 speed triple! Although mine does have clip-ons, for my 6'4 body it's still a very comfortable bike to ride and I ride it most days to the office. I would say to whomever wants a raw feel of a bike unlike all the tech the newer models have I would recommend the 2005-2010 model speed triple. Me personally I wouldn't want a newer bike, since I love the raw feeling and knowing that you're in full control of the bike rather than a computer is just a feeling you'll never stop loving.

After watching Double D's speed I wanna chuck a set of clip on's on my 2013 speed triple..

This channel is pretty awesome, stay true!

Heck now. More POWER! Haha. The only thing extra I want is a windscreen. But I agree that midrange is much better that top end. The option for a touring screen is a must for daily use. So far, I’m keeping the MT10. Well until the next gen.

Great analysis,thks.

Usual honest review from Neevesy, had a Street Triple RS and I felt that was too stiff for the rode with Ohlins, however Triumph launched an “R” version which was just about right, they should have pulled the same trick on the Speed Triple IMHO Far as the new S1000R is concerned I don’t think it comes worth shiftcam so the headline news seems to be electronics tweaking, new gearing and weight loss at BMW, will be interested to see what you think...

Looks wise, I love it. Looking fwd to test riding one soon.

Good commentary. Triumph engines really are amazing.
