woof! me likey!
The descriptions are compliments of BikeEXIF--where I found this. I think the Street3 R is the #1 bike I'd consider giving up the Bonnie for. I definitely like the single headlamp on this one and the wrapped pipes look pretty sweet, too.
London’s Ace Cafe will forever be associated with greasy rockers, old Brit iron and the post-War “Ton-Up Boys”. But this venerable institution has now put its name to a very contemporary café racer—based on the Triumph Street Triple R. A short run of ten 675CR Street Triple Specials will be built by Jack Lilley, the long established West London Triumph dealer.
The stock Street Triple R is not short of performance, so mechanical upgrades are minimal. The 12-valve motor has been fitted with heat-wrapped down pipes, Arrow end cans, and Triumph’s own Quickshifter. The highly-regarded German Triumph specialist LSL supplies adjustable rear-sets, clip-ons, grips and levers, plus mirrors and brake reservoirs. Other LSL parts include a “tail tidy”, crash protectors for the forks, swingarm, clutch and frame, and a single powerful 7” headlight.
Custom graphics and paint are applied to the seat and radiator cowls, belly pan and even the lightweight five-spoke cast 17” aluminum wheels. Tires are top-spec Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa.
The cost of the Ace 675CR is £12,999 (around US$20,700). That’s around £5,000 over the factory bike. But then again, it’s not cheap to upgrade a bike as good as the stock Street Triple R—and exclusivity always has a price.
