2026 Triumph Street Triple 765 RX and Moto2 – First Look
Sportier ergos, upgraded suspension and premium touches
Confirming our previous reporting from September, Triumph officially announced two new, higher-spec additions to its Street Triple 765 lineup. Available for only the 2026 model year, the new Triumph Street Triple 765 RX turns the roadster into an even more capable track weapon, while the Street Triple 765 Moto2 Edition is an ultra exclusive model designed for collectors.
Both models are based on the regular production Street Triple 765 RS but offer upgraded suspension, more aggressive ergonomics, and premium color schemes. Pricing for the Triumph Street Triple 765 RX begins at $14,495, or $950 more than the RS model. The Moto2 Edition comes in much higher at $16,495, thanks to its copious use of carbon fiber, and limited production run of 1,000 units worldwide (with 150 reserved for the U.S. market plus 15 for Canada).
The 765cc Inline-Triple powering the RX and Moto2 Edition uses the same tuning as the RS model, with Triumph claiming a peak output of 128.2 hp at 12,000 rpm and 59 lb-ft. at 9,500 rpm (the Street Triple 765 R, which Triumph says offers only 118.4 hp, will not be offered for 2026.)
The aluminum beam twin spar frames are the same as the Street Triple RS, but the RX and Moto2 Edition benefit from a higher end fork. Instead of the RS’ Showa Big Piston Fork, they receive a Öhlins NIX30 fork with full adjustability. The fully adjustable Öhlins STX40 piggyback reservoir monoshock is carried over from the RS.
The braking system is likewise unchanged, with dual Brembo Stylema four-piston calipers paired with a Brembo MCS radial master cylinder and 310mm discs up front, and a single 220 mm disc and single-piston Brembo caliper for the rear.
For a more aggressive riding position, the Moto2 Edition and RX come with clip-on handlebars mounted to machined top yokes. The RX logo is laser etched on the yoke for the RX model, while the Moto2 model is etched with its logo and individual production number.
The Street Triple 765 RX comes in a Matte Aluminum Silver color with Diablo Red highlights, a color combination inspired by the first Triumph to bear the RX branding, the 2015 Street Triple 675 RX.
The Moto2 Edition comes in a Mineral Grey and Crystal White color scheme with Triumph Performance Yellow highlights. The side panels, front fender, belly pan, and exhaust end cap are all made of carbon fiber. The seat has a dimpled pattern and features an embossed Moto2 logo. The Moto2 branding is also laser etched on the silencer and featured in the TFT display’s start-up screen.
Triumph is accepting orders on both models now, but expect a bit of a wait for deliveries. Triumph says the Moto2 Edition will arrive in dealerships in March 2026, while the Street Triple 765 RX won’t arrive until December 2026.

Why no quarter fairing with either of these? Some version of the Speed Triple RR fairing would improve the track focus. Blasting full tilt around a track for dozens of laps on a naked bike, even if with clipons, proves to be EXHAUSTING due to wind pressure. It's also not very aerodynamic without some kind of fairing around the upper side.
That said, it's a lot of do-dads jacking pricing from the base 765RS. Worth it? Guess the customer will decide.
The 765RS makes a solid 132 hp & 61 ft-lb on dyno (118/55 stock) with Leo Vince full system, cutting out the core of the intake snorkel, and 2 Wheel Dyno Works ECU flash. Very respectable.
The Moto2 Daytona (supersport full fairing bike) makes 138/62 in the same tuning shop with the best mods available.
It’s also definitely true that everyone has big horsepower in their heads. They are advertising a brand new ninja 500 by me for $4500 before TTL. That is a fantastic price and it is an amazing bike. Throw a full exhaust and ECU remap on there and they are pretty quick, not by today’s high horsepower standards but by the standards of 20 years ago. Problem is, no one considers a light, amazing handling bike with 55 HP adequate enough.
