Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RX: Design

The RX is based on the Speed Triple 1200 RS but comes with some notable differences. It features a sportier rider position, with lower clip-on handlebars and higher, more rear-set foot pegs. The bike also comes with a neon yellow and black paint scheme featuring RX graphics.
The model includes a carbon-fibre and titanium Akrapovic exhaust, though this does not reduce the overall weight. The RX continues to weigh 199 kg (kerb), similar to the RS.
