DescriptionThe whole story▼
Carbon on a SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS is as much about the look as it is about the weight. The LighTech CART1250 is an autoclave carbon pair weighing 212 g, supplied in the gloss finish. On a 1160 cc SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS it is the cheapest insurance on the bike.
Key Features
- The CART1250 costs less than the smallest part it defends on a SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS
- Weight kept low where the CART1250 hangs furthest from the SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS frame
- Sold as a pair, covering both frame flanks of the SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS
- CNC-machined rather than cast, so the CART1250 mating faces stay true on the SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS
- The weave on the CART1250 is structural, not a decorative overlay
- Metric hardware throughout the CART1250, so a SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS workshop needs nothing special
- Gloss finish as supplied; a matt CART1250 version exists for some Triumph models
Construction and Material Quality
Autoclave processing gives the CART1250 its resistance; the weave is the visible part of that. The result weighs 212 g and is lighter than the standard component it covers on the SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS. LighTech supplies screws with some references; this one goes on with silicone.
Carbon, and What It Buys
An autoclave cure is what separates structural carbon from decorative carbon. The CART1250 is laid up and cured under pressure, which is where the stiffness comes from. The pair adds 212 g to the SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS, less than the standard parts it sits over.
Fitting
Nothing beyond basic workshop tools is needed to fit the CART1250 to a SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS. Re-check the fastener torque after the first ride, as with any part that hangs off the SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS frame. There is a single CART1250 finish (Gloss carbon); nothing to specify when ordering for a SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS.
Compatibility and Installation
LighTech's fitment for the CART1250 is the Triumph SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS across 2026. Nothing on the SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS has to be cut; the kit bolts to what is there.
What Is in the Box
Two pieces at 212 g total — the CART1250 covers left and right of the SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS together. Spare elements for the CART1250 are listed separately, which keeps a repair cheap on a SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS.
Type Approval
LighTech does not issue approval papers for the CART1250, and neither do we. For a SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS with a registration plate, the fitted position is worth clarifying in advance. If the SPEED TRIPLE 1200 RS is used on track only, none of this applies.
