The Speed Twin 1200 RS ups the sport ante with better suspension, brakes, tires, and a more lenient Sport ride mode. The Triumph Speed Twin 1200, one of Triumph’s best-selling Modern Classics, returns for 2025 with upgrades including a new IMU, a revvier powerplant, and new instrumentation to go along with its more chiseled appearance. The up-spec RS version includes fully adjustable suspension, Brembo Stylema brakes, an extra ride mode, and sportier ergos. But is the more premium RS version worth the bump in price? We traveled to the Spanish island of Mallorca to test both versions of the Speed Twin 1200 on delightfully twisty roads, switching between the two during a full day of riding. Despite their retro-inspired designs, the Speed Twins proved to have fully modern sporting potential and carve out a unique spot in the marketplace.
