2011 EICMA: Triumph Daytona 675 m.y. 2012
Triumph is at the 2011 EICMA with the Daytona 675 for the year 2012, a model that - as expected - shows small but significant modifications. Aesthetically, the bike introduces black finishing for footpegs, discs, handlebars, under-seat panel, engine covers and belly-pan, plus a new font for the logos. The engine remains the same 675cc unit of the current model, delivering 123 hp at 12,600 rpm and 72Nm of peak torque.
Other technical highlights of the new Daytona 675 are the fully adjustable 41mm inverted front forks and rear monoshock that both benefit from sophisticated high and low speed damping control, radially mounted calipers Nissin monobloc and ultra-light 5-spoke wheels fitted with Pirelli Supercorsa SP tyres.
Triumph Daytona 675 m.y. 2012 boasts a dry weight of 162 kg that becomes 185 kg when fully fuelled) and can count on many accessories and optional extras such as Arrow slip-on silencer, quick-shifter, Öhlins rear suspension unit, several carbon fibre bits and racing kits to make them suitable for Supersport and Superstock championships. The bike will be available with Phantom Black and Diablo Red color schemes and, last but not least, will have the same price tag of the current model. Check out our pics from the Milan event.

2012 Triumph Daytona 675
The new 2012 Triumph Daytona 675 has been released and while at this stage, these are the only pics we’ve got, we can bring you the few technical updates this model presents. After the spy pics recently, we had expected a complete overhaul of the new Daytona 675 but it looks more like a basic restyling.
New colours are on offer: the Daytona 675 now comes in Phantom Black and Diablo Red with sports Triumph logo on the tank and Daytona and 675 decals. Under the fairing we get blacked-out parts already seen on the 675R. Other black tinted components feature on the footpegs, handlebars, and around the tail area. New details have been included on some of the engine components, including on the carter. The engine itself is the same three-cylinder 675cc, 12-valve unit with 125 hp and 72 Nm of torque. That means the 2012 Daytona 675 will still get that triple, raucous sound.
More technical components include the upside-down 41mm fork, adjustable rear shock to adapt to riding styles and road or track conditions, Nissin front radial disc brakes and five-spoke alloy wheels. Standard tyres available are a Pirelli Supercorsa SP set for a racing ride and to complement the lightweight Triumph.

New 2012 Triumph Daytona 675?
A new Triumph Daytona 675 could be in the works for 2012, with MCN claiming this is the first spy pic of the new model. It doesn’t show us much as they promise more detailed shots in their print version, but what we do get is a central running light and funny little mirrors in alloy. The other pictures of the possible 2012 Daytona 675 apparently show new exhaust, updated style and overall design changes across the board.
That would suggest that the new Triumph Daytona 675 is not just a facelift, but a new generation which MCN describes as a “comprehensive overhaul”. The pics were taken somewhere in the vicinity of Triumph’s Hinckley factory and if this is a production-ready new Daytona, we wonder if we won’t be seeing it at the 2011 EICMA….
Triumph Daytona 675R pics
The Triumph Daytona 675R has also been leaked before its 2010 EICMA presentation, making us think the guys at Motorinfo.hu got their hands on something no-one else did. The ‘R’ version is the hotted-up sports version of the Daytona 675 and looking at it in these pics, it could fast be on our wish list. In any case, we’ll definitely be checking it out at the EICMA show.
The Triumph Daytona 675R has a new gold-coloured Ohlins front fork which pairs with some impressive Brembo radial caliper brakes. The rear shock is Ohlins as well, and we get a red frame marking this as the ‘R’ version. Overall, it’s an aggressive new look with carbon fibre bits and a new colour scheme.
We could happily satisfy ourselves with the 126 hp and the snazzy new look, done elegantly in a sports style without the usual cheap sticker job that so often happens. Exhaust and cooling system look the same but come EICMA, we’ll have all the official technical details from Triumph itself.
2010 Superbike of the year video
There is so much motorcycle eye candy in this sports bike of the year test that it gets difficult to pick which is the best, unless you’re a die-hard fan of one particular brand or another. The guys from Fast Bikes and Bike Channel teamed up to test each and every 2010 sports bike they could get their hands on, namely: the Kawasaki ZX-6R, Suzuki GSX-R 750, KTM RC8 R, Yamaha R6, Triumph Daytona 675, BMW S1000RR, Ducati 1198S, Aprilia RSV4 R, Yamaha R1 and the Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade.
That’s some mighty equipment sitting on the track and frankly, we’re jealous of just how much fun these guys must have had. The bikes are a real mix of everything that Japan and Europe has been able to throw at the sportbike/superbike sector. There are a couple of surprises in the final three and one big un-surprise as well. The word on the winner is: “you just wouldn’t believe what you can get away with on this bike”. Watch the video to see which one it is.
2010 Triumph Daytona 675 SE
Here’s a gallery dedicated to the new 2010 Daytona 675 SE. The livery is the same as the 2009 Daytona 675: Pearl White and Sparkle Blue, while new graphics appear, along with a white line around the black wheels for a more aggressive look. The “racing” brakes and clutch have been developed from the Supersport Daytona 675 version, and are included on this 2010 special edition.
Carbonfibre appears under the tail part of the bike to separate the seat from the exhaust, and more carbon finishes can be found at the front ‘cockpit’ and the rear mudguard. Suspension is fully adjustable, with setting changes permitted both at low and high speeds. The 675cc engine has nearly 128 hp at 12,600 rpm, which is something to compete with.
The 2010 Daytona 675 SE will be produced in a limited series and will cost about 11,840 euros. That’s 250 euros more than the standard version. A long list of accessories is available with everything from carbonfibre parts to racing pedals on offer. Other features available are the Quickshifter electronic shift, the Arrows exhaust and Ohlins suspension.

The 2010 Triumph model year includes some of your favourites from the Speed Triple to the Street Triple and the Bonneville 50th Anniversary Edition. Below you’ll find a 2010 Triumph gallery and a video showing all the models for the new year. Coming up, we’ll have more videos of the Triumph Sprint ST 1050 and the Daytona 675, too.
Triumph Street Triple R superbike one-make Parkingo European Series
Not strictly one of the best bikes for 2010, the Triumph Street Triple R has, however, won “bike of the year” 2009 in more than one country. Its 675 cc engine could have something to do with that, but overall we understand that this is one very fun bike to ride. The Street Triple R now has its own superbike one-make series with the ParkinGo European Series.
The races will take place on Superbike Sundays, between the first and second round of the race and will involve about 24 riders at the following Superbike rounds: Valencia, Assen, Monza, Misano, Brno, Donington, and Nurburgring.
The series has European championship status and the winner will compete at the final round of the 2010 Supersport World Championship on a Triumph Daytona 675 from BE1 Racing. For more information, see the Parkingo European Series website.
Best sportsbike of 2009: Triumph Daytona 675
Before the Tourist Trophy kicked off, MCN had a little ride around the Isle of Man to elect the sports bike of the year, 2009. In a test ride, it compared the KTM RC8 R, the Yamaha YZF-R1, the Aprilia RSV4 and the Triumph Daytona 675 SE.
In a previous test, MCN had voted the Yamaha R1 above the Aprilia RSV4 for its road versatility, though there were questions about whether the Aprilia would come in ahead of the R1 for track use.
While the Aprilia RSV4 has been a successful bike so far (and it’s only at the beginning of its career), according to MCN, the Daytona 675 Special Edition can be voted best sports bike for its reduced price tag. All the bikes have won something in MCN’s various tests so far, but the Triumph 675 victory may seem a little forced, unless you’re someone focusing on price. And if you are, at nearly half the cost of Aprilia, the Triumph makes a good case for itself. See the video for more.
Special Edition Triumph Daytona 675 SE 2009
Triumph is presenting its 2009 special version of the Daytona 675. The white-blue livery is new for the Daytona 675 SE, showing off its sleek and agressive lines.
The engine is the same as the standard version: a three cylinder unit at 128 hp, 12,600 rpm. Pearl White is the base colour for the bike, while Sparkle Blue is the colour used to emphasise the alluminium chassis.
Pricing and availability is still to be confirmed.

Daytona 675 with spikey tyres
We love the bike in this photo, but we’re a little concerned about the tyres. While the Daytona 675 is not a slow bike, we wonder what the effect of these tyres is. While the motorcycle would be a lot of fun for a joy ride in the snow, we expect a lap on the track would be a little uncomfortable.
Send your funny, bizarre or surprising pics to us and we’ll post them, with your name. We’d love to share what you guys find in the world of motorcycling! Send to: pics@twowheelsblog.com.

The video was comes from the official press presentation at Cartagena and gives you a great idea of what a Triumph can do when you really open the throttle.
