Triumph Motorcycles will continue to provide their record-breaking 765cc triple powerplants as exclusive Moto2 engine supplier for the next three seasons - 2022-2024.

The Triumph-Moto2 partnership has been heralded as a great success since its race-tuned 765cc triples - based on the class-leading Street Triple RS engine - were introduced in 2019.

With developments that allow it to breathe more freely, rev harder and deliver a peak power output of more than 140PS (an increase of over 17% on the production engine), the 765cc triple brought to the category a much-welcomed boost in power, transforming the performance and level of competition.

Following Dorna’s intent to bring the Moto2 series closer to MotoGP, the increase in power and torque, combined with a more advanced electronics package, has provided a more relevant training and development ground, whilst enhancing the overall racing in its own right.

The project has seen wide success, most notably in MotoGP rookie Jorge Martin’s rise to podium and race winning prowess this season, with Brad Binder having an equally impressive promotion with his debut win in 2020.

14 different race winners since 2019, lap records set at 34 events, and the first ever 300+km/h top speed for a Moto2 machine - the record stands at 301.8km/h at Phillip Island, Australia - all continue to sing the praises of the intermediate class leading to the decision to continue the partnership, along with the continuing support of Externpro, with an additional three year contract.

”Moto2 has been the perfect environment to showcase, and prove the reliability and performance advantages of our triple engines, where we have seen the top 20 qualifying times consistently come within a second of each other,” Steve Sargent, Triumph Motorcycles Chief Product Officer said on the announcement.

“Not only has it raised our profile and credibility on the world stage, for me the success of Moto2 has also been an incredible catalyst, reigniting the passion for racing within Triumph motorcycles. I am delighted to have played a part in this landmark activity for Triumph and excited to see the extension to another 3 seasons.

“We are committed to delivering further improvements to the performance of the engines, which we are sure will be appreciated by both the riders and the teams,” he concluded.

“Our first years together have been a wonderful success and I’d like to thank Triumph for their help and hard work over these first three years - especially during the pandemic,” Dorna Sports Managing Director Carlos Ezpeleta added.

“The FIM, IRTA and Dorna are happy with the results this project has shown and it’s validated the consistency of the steps between Moto3, Moto2 and MotoGP. Overall, we are pleased with the partnership and we look forward to three more exciting years together.”
