Most 1050 had the Twin set up, but most owner changed to a "Low Boy" single can, I don't believe Triumph made the Speedy 1050 with a single can until the RS1200 (but I could be wrong)
Really tough choice, the value of the T509 is crazy, so if your after a great bike on a budget, that's the One to get, the 955i is an iconic engine that seldom goes wrong, and again can be bought for very little money, and the 1050 is just ludicrous fun to ride! So on a budget the T509 but if you can stretch the budget...... The 1050 is the best choice I think 😁
Nice bike lots of good bits on that one! Got a white speedy r myself. Best mod was lowering the headlight assembly with the street triple bracket #T2700717 makes the bike look more agressive and symetrical.
Love my Speed aswell mate. Can you show us the luggage as I'm thinking the same as you. I want some cheap luggage that works and try a little trip. Cheers mate. And yes I would of taken a chance as people who try a speed never forget it and always say they loved it after they have sold it and just like you buy another one. People always stop and chat to me about mine as it's the Matt grey and blue strip se version. Just love triumph as a brand and speeds especially. Cheers again Barney
i've had the white one for a year. Sold it. Didn't know why. And now I've got a black 1050R "94".. And still in love with it!
Lot of love for the Speed Triple, old and new versions! I bought a lovely Blue 955i which is on the channel now too, so take a look if you get time :)
I owned almost every street and speed triple. I always come back to 2012 models. something different there !
Just hard to beat for value and the fun they offer
Can you put a top case on this? I’m torn between the tiger and the speed triple. I like the top case set up for the tiger.
You can put a topbox on just about any bike, although I think a set of throw over soft panners would work better on the Speedy 😉
Could anyone tell me when they dropped the exhausts from side of the tail I think it looks so much better

Great videos. After reviewing the t509, the later 955i and the 1050. Which do you prefer?

No QS on this model, but you can get an after market One fitted for around £300 :)

Yes I was going to to do that Mod on this White One, as it was on my Black One (see my other video's) and it really changes the stance!

I imagine if you were watching this video, you already know what a 1050 Triple sounds like Martin , they are very distinctive :)
