Triumph Speed Twin 900 (2025 onwards)
The Triumph Speed Twin 900 is a 900cc naked bike featuring a classic retro design in a modern chassis. It is an updated version of the Triumph Street Twin motorcycle that has gained an enormous amount of popularity among riders.
Compared to its predecessor, the 2025 model is now shorter, sportier, and better equipped than before, which makes it a more attractive option for beginners and A2 licence holders. Unfortunately, there are some minor flaws that need to be addressed, such as the front fork vibration issue.
