Triumph Motorcycles India has indefinitely postponed the launch of the new 2020 Triumph Street Triple RS, due to the coronavirus pandemic. The new and updated Street Triple RS was to be launched on March 25, 2020, although Triumph India had planned to launch the bike only digitally, on Twitter, to avoid gatherings and maintain social distancing.

"Owing to the unprecedented coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, we are postponing the planned digital launch of the new Street Triple RS. The new launch will be announced after March 31. Until then, stay home, stay safe," a statement from Triumph Motorcycles stated.
