2016 TRIUMPH DAYTONA 675 675 O-Ring

The Daytona 675 is widely regarded as the best-handling middleweight sports bike of its era, and the 2013 update was the biggest change since the original. The 675cc inline triple produces 126bhp at 12,500rpm with 55lb-ft of torque, and it is the engine that defines the bike. It has the midrange of a twin and the top end of a four, with a soundtrack no inline four can match, and it pulls cleanly from low revs rather than demanding to be screamed everywhere.

Fully adjustable KYB big piston forks and a fully adjustable KYB rear shock, twin 310mm front discs with four-piston Nissin radial calipers, and a slipper clutch and switchable ABS as standard. At 184kg with an 820mm seat it is light, narrow and flickable, and it carries far more corner speed than the numbers suggest. Reliability is a genuine strength.

This Daytona features ABS, paddock stand bobbins, datatag, two keys, owners manual and service book with a comprehensive history of nine stamps the last of which was carried at 14,200 miles.
