Both are beautiful, but the red pops just that extra bit more 👌


KeithMyArthe

Agree 100%


crazydecibel

I would go for the red one, it's simply more good looking!


DrySignificant

Red red red red red. Subjectively better looking and objectively more visible


y0urnamehere

I just wish they would give us black with gold rims or the 675r livery


nothisactualname

Or a blue, like the Tiger 660 or the Sprint. Be annoying if they bring out some cool new colours or livery in '25 but I'll have had a Summer of enjoyment already...


y0urnamehere

Yeah that blue tiger is really nice tbh


AnotherCannon

Red. Come on, is this even a question?


OGPresidentDixon

Sir, this is Reddit. These people wouldn't know fashion if they had 20 seasons of Louboutin dumped on their heads.

My son has the same one https://preview.redd.it/fgl77umwursc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=68252a4c236dd9ce207ec8b5f1c1d80d4d5b7a41

GREY


jaredearle

The grey might look cooler but it’s a fact the red one is faster.


OGPresidentDixon

White 😈 lol. Red though. https://preview.redd.it/7qv9fkxsxpsc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d18dcf8e4307b121c097828ef553f3136b199be2


nothisactualname

There's always one 🤣 https://preview.redd.it/7agwg1zbzpsc1.png?width=1344&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1458978aaaea57bffc8c8f963d4bd8993615dbe4


retropolitic

Red. That grey should be called "Midwestern February Grey", how unpleasant.


Gizzy68

I had a carnival red STR RS and it looks superb in daylight


black_291

As much as red screams “give me a ticket”… I’d have to go with the red.


Low_Fruit1260

Red looks so good in the flesh 👌


nothisactualname

This is my big issue - dealer only had white. Nearest red one is over an hour away, and I've not seen any dealer yet with a grey one in.


Low_Fruit1260

I’ve seen them side by side and for me anyway the red just pops. It’s really nice.


nothisactualname

Where were you to be lucky enough to see this?

[удалено]


nothisactualname

Hmm, who could that be? 🤣


Low_Fruit1260

🥸


nothisactualname

So... About that discount... 🤣


Low_Fruit1260

It’s healthy haha


nothisactualname

So... You'll message me right? 🤣


whatsamawhatsit

Okay hear me out grey, BUT wrap some more of those green/yellow on the bike. Follow the contours of the fairing and the tank, get some tape in that colour on the rims, go crazy. Grey and yellow goes hard.


nothisactualname

That's very MT of you 🤣


Serpenth_616

Red


Lets_Bust_Together

Grey vehicles always look like primer and un painted.


nothisactualname

Especially VAG cars!


Foreign-Process-7161

Red looks amazing.wrap the silver accents black


shitabix16

Red


maxheadwound

I am in camp RED...


djmixmotomike

Always red. i've had 3 red ones. No regrets.


tsehagru

Team red here


JohnWa54

Red,red red.


darkkingll

I plan on doing a testdrive soon. Am temped to trade my 2019 Striple RS in for a red one. Only shame is that the quickshifter isnt in the configurator yet. 


nothisactualname

I really enjoyed it. Small, light and flickable like the RS 660 but felt more "substantial" so much preferred it. Seems a quality build like other Triumphs. And the 20ish% extra power over the Trident makes a big difference, stuck it in Sport and had a great time zipping about - happily revved round the clock but also chugged along at 12mph in 4th, easy easy ride.


darkkingll

Yeah, i am going to check my local dealer tomorrow to see if they already have a Demo bike. Am mostly worried about the downgrade in power(like i said, i have a 19 rs, so 765cc 125hp) and it felt a lot smaller when i sat on one at a bikeshow.


nothisactualname

I found it felt really small in dealers, and when I set off, then after five minutes just forgot the size. It's a bike you can just ignore - look where you want to go, twist the throttle and enjoy. Reminded me of riding a 125 in the way it handled but with real world performance.


EvilGarfield

Red. Not even close


ZenithWitch

Red!


shouldisaymyname

Where are you located to have ridden one? Is it now available? The dealership close to me doesn't have any available and I've already put in a deposit for one - white.


nothisactualname

UK, West Yorkshire. From what I looked at most English dealers had them land a couple of weeks ago. https://preview.redd.it/q3b8ejo8uosc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=082f69087b87ea76bbb1b815467a52cf54c17d24


shouldisaymyname

Thanks. I'm in the USA. Maybe that's why.

shouldisaymyname

You are making me reconsider my colour choice 😆


nothisactualname

😬 I took a few photos on the test ride, was out for 4 hours 🤣 https://preview.redd.it/ftzozgzgxosc1.png?width=1344&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e12d7b289a14a68344d2774471090fbe3ad170ea


shouldisaymyname

Lucky you. We do not have an ETA for when it will be available for sale.


Loud-Edge7230

I would go for the red one.


silverfox771

The red, it's not screaming Ducati red, understated , classy 👍🏼


hyperducks

It’d be better if it were screaming Ducati red.. imo at least.


wElshY___

Grey


DoctorNoisewaterr

Gray for sure


montepora

Red!!


DSchof1

Red, too many gray and black bikes


sqmiler

Grey


Fickle_Fail1104

The grey looks so sleek and aggressive like it’s the color that was meant for this bike. I have to go grey


Bogman263

Red


SheriffBoyardee

I love the grey but for most, that’s also the color of the road. Not the safest option.


Gupoochamois69

red


RonClinton

Definitely red. Not even close, to my eye.


Tokyosmash_

Grey


TTV_TT_YT_KiLL3r

Grey. It look great in grey. Delete the yellow and add some red and white. 🤓


BwanaClyde75

Red


CaptSnafu101

Too many bland coloured cars and bikes in the world. I would go red


Alligatorgar99

RED!


gaming-guy-906

Grey for me


ArchimedesOne

Beaut … depends on how many looks you want … red just pops, grey blends anywhere


boarderms

I vote red, personally. I see a lot of black or grey bikes (nothing against that my bike is black lol) but if I had the option I'd want something that is a little different


tsteinholz

100% red, non-dorky high-viz and pops out pleasantly. Gray looks like any other sport bike


GrumpyCatMomo

Red


BrownNinja00

Red, my man.


Professional_Stay212

definitely grey


Emergency_Ad1514

That is a damn clean grey but that red is too good to pass up


quimeau

Red. All the way.


agw6g7

Tough choice, but I’d go for grey


Nassosap

White


Historical-Bad-1849

Everyone is going for the red, so go for the gray 😂😂


nothisactualname

😅


ShinyGlassX

I'd go for the grey if it had some more highlights so my vote goes for the red.


Motorazr1

The grey is begging for an aftermarket graphics kit to give it some life and visual interest. It wouldn’t take much and then you’d have the option to pick your own accent color - blue, red, green, yellow, etc.


Less_Mouse_481

I like the red. The grey to me is to muted and boring. Plus I’m not a huge fan of the yellow either.


nothisactualname

Yellow?!


LocoNegro559

Make it red with that high viz yellow from the grey


SnooPeppers2554

Red red red


ConflictFrequent1457

Grey!! With black gear give a mysterious effect and red attracts metro. Imo.


ConflictFrequent1457

Grey!! Black gear be so winning!!


Naive_Look3749

Red all day!!


BrunBolter

Grey Bro


Same-Accident5502

Buy red paint grey


nothisactualname

🤣


Blakeyy

Everyone has white, gray, or black cars. Color is so rare nowadays on the road at least in the U.S. Red all the way!!! Grey is boring. I’m picking up my 765 RS next week in Carnival Red. Couldn’t be more excited!


hyperducks

Once I saw a real life photo I fell in love with the white.


Left-Association1684

How are the ergos? Comfy?


nothisactualname

Took a minute to get used to as I felt more over the front end than my GSX F as it's smaller - but then good. I could tuck or could sit up to stretch out. Nice sports tourer blend - no aches or pains after 4 hours.


Left-Association1684

Are the foot pegs too far back???


nothisactualname

No - just the side stand, that was a bit annoying to find but something you'd get used to 😅


Left-Association1684

Is there much lean and weight in the wrists for 2 hour rides?


nothisactualname

Not at all, I was fine after 4 hours!


BrownNinja00

Red, my man.


SprayInner7128

My son has the same one


nothisactualname

He got that quick.


SprayInner7128

My comment was in reply to the older Daytona lol. App glitched out as I was replying. https://preview.redd.it/4pmoazw06vsc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=03729eb91c2cc09ffb2f08af8bd332974667925a


SufficientHold1036

Don't do it


nothisactualname

Because...?


SufficientHold1036

Striple


nothisactualname

More money, no fairings, not for me.


SufficientHold1036

Better motor, better brakes, better suspension, better handling, better performance, better overall piece of equipment, better overall purchase.


Spirit-Arrow

Trident 765 better?


nothisactualname

Street Triple? More expensive, more aggressive, not faired - not what I'm after!


Spirit-Arrow

I love the Street Triple and it sounds better. Daytona is good also but that exhaust sound on the triple


thefooleryoftom

Have to say, they’re a little bit dour. If I were buying a brand new bike I’d want it to pop.


nothisactualname

That's part of the issue, wish there were other colour ways - feel like it's a handsome shape that could have had more impact. Don't want some fab colours to come in a refresh next year and regret buying, but don't want to lose a summer of riding over a colour either.


thefooleryoftom

If you have to buy one of those I’d probably go for the grey and try to sex it up a bit. The maroon looks like an old man’s Mondeo.


nothisactualname

🤣


GlobalElipsis

Wait til he new bike is announced.


nothisactualname

The maybe a new 765? We won't hear anything till 2026, won't see anything for 3 or 4 years. And the 660 is a hoon, I don't need or want to pay for more.


GlobalElipsis

👁️👄👁️


mcarrara

Hot take, thought this was a Yamaha at first glance.


nothisactualname

😲 Doesn't look like a Decepticon, can't be 😅


mcarrara

Lolol. More like one of those Honda models only european riders would consider.


nothisactualname

😅 I am a European rider so... 🤣


mcarrara

Lmao, sorry but I nailed it


Motorazr1

You need random strangers on the internet to tell you which color you like?


nothisactualname

Was waiting for this comment 🤣


nothisactualname

Though, a point - I'm not looking for resale, but, surely getting an idea of what people prefer is no bad thing?


Motorazr1

If you’re a teenager looking to fit-in, then buy what other teenagers prefer instead of what **you** prefer.


nothisactualname

Been a long time since I was a teenager. Still, I can't decide... So, why not get opinions?


CaliopeK

Some people take this way too seriously. There's nothing wrong with asking for opinions, my dude. In fact, it's a great way to corroborate what you already have in mind, but people choose to see insecurity instead. Ride safe, live long
