The teaser video reveals that the new Street Triple will get an updated front end along with minor updates to the engine as well. The current Street Triple RS model was launched in India in late 2017 and is perhaps one of the best naked middleweight motorcycles that you could buy in the country and globally as well.

(The engine on the 2020 Street Triple will get minor revisions in order to make it Euro V compliant)

In fact, Triumph had started testing the 2020 Street Triple a few months ago along with its other motorcycles and we were expecting the company to showcase the motorcycle at 2019 EICMA. But, Triumph will be showcasing it a month before and we couldn't be happier about it.

(The 2020 Street Triple gets new headlamps, which look really good!)

The 2020 Street Triple gets significant changes to the front end, especially its iconic bug-eyed headlamps. They have now become sleeker and more angular, even more bug-eyed than ever before and we like it! These include the LED daytime running lamps as well. The shape of the flyscreen has changed as well and the cowls along the fuel tank along with the radiator guard have been updated as well. Apart from these, the frame, fuel tank and the rear section stays the same.

The engine could also get minor revisions in order to comply with the Euro V emission norms and the bigger cat-box confirms the same as well. The current Street Triple RS makes 121 bhp and 77 Nm and the new model is expected to offer more or less similar in terms of engine output.

A 1200 cc modern classic with similar design lines as Triumph's iconic Bonneville series, has reportedly been cleared for production.

While there still doesn't seem to be a buyer for iconic British brand Norton Motorcycles which went into administration in January this year, the firm's 650 cc parallel-twin seems to be finding life in China. While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen. The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
