Between MotoGP’s high-stakes drama and Moto3’s frantic action, Moto2 ranks as the middle child of the Grand Prix paddock. Before the world’s best up-and-coming riders get a shot at riding MotoGP’s million-dollar monsters, they must prove themselves on Triumph triple-powered machines.
Starting in 2019, every bike on the Moto2 grid has harnessed Triumph’s latest 765cc inline-triple popularized by the current-gen Street Triple. The race and production mills only share an outward appearance, though, with Hinckley modifying the cylinder head, valves, alternator, ECU, sump, gearing, and slipper clutch to meet the rigors of the raceway.
