2019 Triumph Street Twin Overview
For 2019, Triumph offers the Street Twin as a naked bike motorcycle with 900 cc on tap. The 2019 Triumph Street Twin is built around a Four stroke, 270° Crank angle parallel twin, SOHC, 4 valves per cylinder engine, a compression ratio of 11.0:1. Out on the road, the Street Twin delivers 48 kW @ 7500 rpm of peak power and 80 Nm @ 3800 rpm of torque. In everyday use, the 2019 Street Twin tips the scales at 198 kg, carries a 12-litre fuel tank, offers a seat height of 760 mm and spans a 1415 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 10.5 kg lighter than the average naked bike motorcycle in our database. Every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes, is covered in the full 2019 Triumph Street Twin spec sheet below.
2019 Street Twin - Pros & Cons
Strengths
-
⚡
Strong power output: Peak output on the Street Twin is 48 kW @ 7500 rpm and 80 Nm @ 3800 rpm of torque - strong numbers for what it is.
-
🔧
Fuel injection: No choke, no jetting, no altitude compensation to think about - fuel injection just works across a wider range of conditions than carburetion.
-
📏
Accessible seat height: At just 760 mm, flat-footing at a stop is easy for most riders - a genuine confidence builder for less experienced owners.
Considerations
-
⛽
Modest fuel capacity: A 12-litre tank keeps things light but means budgeting for more frequent fuel stops on any longer ride.
-
⚙️
Chain final drive upkeep: A chain drivetrain is the most common setup in its class, but it's also the one that demands the most regular hands-on maintenance.
Wear Points & Servicing Notes
Cooling system servicing
With Liquid cooled, thermal management is largely automatic, but the coolant has a service life of its own - replace it on the manufacturer's interval to protect the water passages and thermostat.
Fuelling & injector care
Fuelling on the Street Twin comes from Multipoint sequential electronic fuel injection. Cold starts and throttle response stay consistent across altitude and temperature, the main practical edge over a carbureted equivalent.
Brake disc and pad wear
Single 310mm floating disc Brembo 4 piston fixed caliper up front provides the primary stopping power; inspect disc thickness and pad wear at each tyre change to catch scoring before it becomes a rotor replacement.
Suspension condition on used examples
Suspension duties are handled by 41 mm Kayaba fork, non-adjustable with cartridge damping up front and Kayaba twin shocks with adjustable preload at the rear. Weeping fork seals aren't a dealbreaker on a used bike, but they're a fair basis for negotiating price.
Final drive maintenance
Chain final drive on the Street Twin means routine lubing and tension checks are part of ownership - skip them and sprocket wear accelerates noticeably.
Frame & chassis check
The Tubular steel cradle chassis holds up well with normal use; on a used bike it's still worth checking the head-stock and swingarm pivot area for impact damage or corrosion.
Street Twin - Buying & Maintenance Guide
What to check before buying
A pre-purchase check on the 2019 Triumph Street Twin should cover the same ground every time: service history, chain and sprocket condition, and any oil seepage around the casings. Start it from cold if you can - a well-kept Street Twin settles to a smooth idle within seconds.
Oil and filter changes
Oil changes are the cheapest insurance you can buy for a Street Twin's engine - keep to the manufacturer's interval rather than stretching it. Use the viscosity grade the manual specifies, not whatever's on sale.
Fuel system care
Injector systems like the Street Twin's hold up well with basic care - decent fuel, an occasional cleaner additive, and draining old fuel before any layup longer than three months.
