2025 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS launched in India at ₹20.39 lakh. Check details
The 2025 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS has been launched in India at ₹ 20.39 lakh, ex-showroom. With an increase of ₹ 2.44 lakh from the earlier model, the new bike brings considerable mechanical and electronic improvements to enhance the riding experience. Despite the higher price tag, Triumph's flagship supernaked remains more affordable than its key European rivals like the Ducati Streetfighter V4 and KTM 1390 Super Duke R. Here's a deep dive into what's changed on the 2025 Speed Triple 1200 RS.
2025 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS: Design
While the overall silhouette remains sharp and aggressive, Triumph has added fresh colour options to keep things visually exciting. Buyers can now choose from three colourways—an all-black stealth look, a sporty grey and red combination, and a more striking grey with yellow highlights. The 2025 model also features a new set of alloy wheels that are lighter than before, helping reduce unsprung mass for better handling.

One of the major upgrades lies in the bike's electronic suite. The wheelie control system is independently adjustable from the traction control, with more control over the electronics available for experienced riders. The Speed Triple is also now fitted with a steering damper for the first time, enhancing stability under hard acceleration or enthusiastic cornering.
The Ohlins suspension has been upgraded to the latest EC3 electronically adjustable units, which allow on-the-fly tuning and better adaptability for Indian road conditions—addressing complaints about the overly stiff setup on the older model. 2025 Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS: Hardware
The Speed Triple 1200 RS now comes shod with Pirelli Supercorsa V3 tyres, replacing the earlier Metzeler Racetec RR setup. Tyre sizes remain the same (120/70-ZR17 at the front and 190/55-ZR17 at the rear), but the new rubber promises better grip and improved performance on both road and track.

Powering the updated Speed Triple is the familiar 1160cc inline triple engine, now tuned to produce 183 bhp and 128 Nm of torque—a bump of 3 bhp and 3 Nm over the previous version. This gain comes courtesy of a revised, freer-flowing exhaust system. The motorcycle's kerb weight has gone up slightly by 1 kg to 199 kg, but the performance improvements and lighter wheels should offset this minor increase.

Trade unions forum calls for Bharat Bandh against govt policies tomorrow
A forum of 10 central trade unions and their associates has called for a 'Bharat Bandh' on Wednesday to oppose the 'anti-worker, anti-farmer and anti-national pro-corporate policies of the government'. The forum on Monday said preparations for the bandh have been taken up in earnest by unions in all sectors of formal and informal/unorganised economy. 'More than 25 crore workers are expected to take part in the strike. Farmers and rural workers will also join the protest across the country,' said Amarjeet Kaur from All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC). Harbhajan Singh Sidhu from Hind Mazdoor Sabha (HMS) said banking, postal, coal mining, factories and state transport services will be affected due to the strike. Apart from AITUC, Indian National Trade Union Congress (INTUC), HMS, Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU), All India United Trade Union Centre (AIUTUC), Trade Union Coordination Centre (TUCC), Self Employed Women's Association (SEWA), All India Central Council of Trade Unions (AICCTU), Labour Progressive Federation (LPF) and United Trade Union Congress (UTUC) are part of the forum. In a statement, the workers' union forum said it had last year submitted a charter of 17 demands to Labour Minister Mansukh Mandaviya.. It alleged that the government has not been conducting the annual labour conference for the last 10 years and continues to take decisions in contravention to the interest of labour force, attempting to impose the four new labour codes to weaken collective bargaining, to cripple union activities and to favour employers in the name of 'ease of doing business'. The forum also alleged that the economic policies are resulting in increased unemployment, rising prices of essentials, decrease in wages, cut in social sector spending in education, health, basic civic amenities, and all these are leading to more inequalities and miseries for poor, people of lower income group as well as the middle class. 'The government has abandoned the welfare state status of the country. It is working in the interest of foreign and Indian corporates, and it is evident from the policies being pursued vigorously,' said the forum. Referring to the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls in Bihar, the forum said: 'The attack on democratic rights continues more vigorously by this ruling regime and now the attempt to de-franchise the migrant workers is being designed, beginning with Bihar as an immediate case. The misuse of constitutional bodies is rampant to suppress voices of opposition, the enactments in some states to control and criminalise mass movements is on the cards; the Public Security Bill in Maharashtra and similar enactments in the state of Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh etc are the pointers. Now the attempt to snatch citizenship is on the cards.' Trade unions have been fighting against 'privatisation of public sector enterprises and public services, policies of outsourcing, contractorisation and casualisation of workforce', it said. The four labour codes that have been passed by Parliament are meant to 'suppress and cripple the trade union movement, increase working hours, snatch workers' right to collective bargaining, right to strike, and decriminalise violation of labour laws by employers', the statement said. The Samyukta Kisan Morcha and joint front of agricultural workers unions have extended support to the July 9 banch call and decided to make massive mobilsations in rural India, the union leaders said. Trade unions had earlier observed similar nationwide strikes on November 26, 2020, March 28-29, 2022 and on February 16 last year.

Bawana Waste-To-Energy Plant Given Green Nod Amid Protests
New Delhi: A 30MW waste-to-energy plant near a village in Bawana Industrial Area has received clearance from the Union environment ministry, confirmed Delhi Pollution Control Committee. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The environment clearance (EC) has come despite residents of neighbouring villages protesting against the plant since last year. The 15-acre facility in northwest Delhi, which includes six acres as a green belt, aims to burn 3,000 tonnes of municipal solid waste as boiler fuel per day. Located in DSIIDC Industrial Area, it will be managed by Jindal Urban Waste Management (Bawana) Limited. Municipal Corporation of Delhi has provided the land. "The capital cost of the proposed project is Rs 660 crore and the capital cost for environmental protection measures is proposed as Rs 91.605 crore. The annual recurring cost towards the environmental protection measures is proposed as Rs 14.155 crore. The employment generation from the proposed project is 242 (during the operational phase)," stated the June 18 document granting EC. According to it, a JJ colony is within 1km of the plant while within 5km, there are several villages, including Naya Bans, Holambi Khurd and Sanoth. The waste will be brought via road from approximately 12km away and the plant will use approximately 6,25,000 litres per day of treated water from sewage treatment plants and approximately 7,000 litre fresh water daily. The document, however, claims that the project will not use groundwater. "A natural nullah is passing through the project site and Western Yamuna Canal is located approximately 32 metres from the site," stated the document, outlining protection measures, including storing waste in a closed pit, to prevent cross-contamination and similar provisions for fly ash and fuel oil. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now An analysis of PM2.5 between March and May 2023 showed readings ranging from 46 to 228 micrograms per cubic metre while the average standards are 40 units annually and 60 daily. "The residents, especially those living near the industrial area, are already exhausted due to pollution," stated one of the key concerns raised during a public consultation, as highlighted in the grant letter. The response stated, "Ambient air quality monitoring systems will be installed in the plant for tracking pollution levels." While 61 flora and 56 fauna species are found in the area, Wildlife Protection Act mentions three schedule-I species, Indian peacock, small Asian mongoose and Shikra bird, here. A wildlife conservation plan has been submitted to the divisional forest officer for approval and Rs 54 lakh has been allocated for it, the document stated. The letter also recommends strengthening primary healthcare services and disease surveillance in Bawana, focusing on prevention and early diagnosis of communicable and non-communicable diseases. At least Rs 55 lakh will be spent from 2025-26 to 2029-30 to provide medical camps in Bawana and nearby villages. During the public consultation last Dec, in the presence of DPCC and district administration officials, many village residents cited their current health issues, specifically kidney and lung problems, which, they claimed, were caused by a neighbouring waste disposal facility. Incinerating waste would worsen the situation, they said, drawing parallels with the Okhla plant. According to a DPCC document issued later, over 680 responses were received. A plea was filed in Supreme Court by many residents, predominantly from Sanoth located within 4km, who were affected by the current landfill. The court sought a report on the probable impact on environment and health from Central Pollution Control Board. The report is still awaited.

'Don't see other risks, Sebi is upgrading surveillance': Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey

Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The Sebi chief also said that the Jane Street issue was more of a surveillance issue and that the regulator is in the process of upgrading now. The chairman of of the markets regulator was speaking to the media after inaugurating a new investor empowerment facility on the apps run by the two depositories, CDSL and NSDL. Late on Thursday Sebi through an enforcement order had temporarily banned Jane Street and three of its affiliates from the Indian market for manipulation in stocks and futures & options (F&O) markets. The regulator had also asked the entities to together disgorge nearly Rs 4,850 crore, alleged to be Jane Street's illegal gains. Asked if there were other similar funds that have manipulated the market, Sebi chief said he didn't think there were "very many other risks." Pandey said that what happened in the Jane Street matter was a surveillance issue, and the regulator was upgrading its surveillance systems. A day earlier, the markets regulator had said that along with Sebi, the two leading bourses were also in the process of upgrading their surveillance systems so that cases like Jane Street did not occur. He had also assured investors that Sebi will not tolerate any attempt at market manipulation. The Sebi chief also said that the action it took against Jane Street was within the confines of the regulatory powers. Pandey also said that was not the regulatory powers but better surveillance and enforcement systems which would act as deterrents against market manipulators.
