Triumph’s Moto2 765 sweetheart is about to get a series of engine upgrades – and with the better power, we’re also hoping for the same (or better) reliability.

If you haven’t already heard, Moto2 is considered one of the more dangerous categories in which to race. Casualties are a higher statistic here, to accompany the youthful endorphins and young blood training their talents for the test of the season; it stands to reason, then, that reliability of the machine needs to be absolutely rock-solid, to give the rider a tool to translate all those torquedos.*

“A higher rpm comes by way of a new cylinder head, increased valve lift, a revised camshaft profile, updated valve springs, and a higher compression ratio.”

“Fortified pistons, conrods, and crankshaft should help the trusty triple maintain its excellent reliability record as the revs rise.”
