Daytona 675 - Three cylinder !

As the first three-cylinder super sports middleweight the Daytona 675 stands alone in the most hotly contested arena in motorcycling. Of course it can be compared to many motorcycles – and on such occasions invariably comes out on top, but in one single stroke it’s redefined just how a middleweight sports bike should look and feel. If the Daytona 675’s unique DNA is a large part of its appeal, its stunning performance is the winning flourish.

Its 675cc, water-cooled three-cylinder 12-valve power unit is extremely compact and features Keihin closed-loop fuel injection and stacked six-speed close ratio gearbox. Pe
ak power of 125PS (123bhp) is delivered at 12500rpm, with 72Nm (53ft.lbf) torque at 11750rpm. The standard exhaust features an efficient underseat end-can and also utilises a secondary valve to boost torque low down. While the Daytona 675’s engine is refined, the triple’s innate character remains with typical Triumph toughness engineered into every part.

The Daytona 675 sits firmly within a class of one and delivers incredible performance with its exciting, powerful engine and intuitive, razor-sharp chassis. It looks, sounds and feels like nothing else. It has redrawn the super sports middleweight map and truly earned the praise heaped upon it by some of the toughest critics in the motorcycle press.
