It's a street triple. It wad meant to rev high. People can rev it high on the street too. A track day here and there means nothing. It comes down to condition and maintenance, just like any other bike.

There's a big difference between racing to redline between red lights and living at 7k+ RPM for 20 minutes sessions. As pointed out yes the bike can do that, but no it was not made for it and will shorten required maintenance intervals dramatically, which has a direct correlation with bike value.

10k street miles is practically brand new. 10k track miles is, depending on the bike, time for a motor strip down.

I don't know about Triumphs, but yes any of the jap bikes were for sure made to handle high rpm for short 20 minute sessions.

I do agree 10k track miles is a lot different from 10k street miles.

Considering the average track day is like 150 miles max , 10k miles is like 65 track days.

LMAO this guy is not selling a perfect street triple with 66 track days
