TRIUMPHSpeed Triple 955 2000 - 2001

　　In 2000, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Speed Triple 955, a naked motorcycle manufactured from 1994 to 2004. Compared to its predecessor, the bike remained essentially unchanged in the visual department.

　　Some improvements for the 2000 models included an upgraded engine control unit with the Sagem MC2000 system, and the ground block, which was known to fail, received an improved wiring harness.

　　The Speed Triple and Daytona motorcycles were called 955i, which ended some confusion from the earlier T500 designation. In addition, the bike was fitted with silver-finished wheels and a painted rather than cursive Speed Triple logo.

　　In the visual department, the 2000 Triumph Speed Triple 955 had standard features, such as a dual round headlight system, a two-piece dual seat with an optional pillion seat cover, a single exhaust system, and lightweight three-spoke aluminum wheels.

　　In the performance department, the bike had installed a 955cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine underneath its fuel tank fed by an electronically controlled fuel injection system. The engine delivered 110 hp with maximum strength at 9,200 rpm and 98 Nm (72 lb-ft) torque at 5,800 rpm.

　　On the front, the bike packed a 45 mm adjustable USD fork and two 320 mm discs with four-piston calipers, while on the rear, it had an adjustable shock absorber and a 220 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper, offering optimum handling and stopping power.
