The people that moan about it not being a 'proper Daytona' seem to forget that the 675 was only one of many bikes Triumph called a Daytona from the 60s cruisers to the 1990s 750, 955 and 1200 to the 2000s 600 and 650... I may have missed a few. The 660 is just the latest iteration and a great bike at a keen price that's right in the middle of a current popular sector.

@ozzyg82 2 месяца назад

Yeah. And they probably never bought a Daytona when they were more sporty/ “serious” bikes.

@Diego-dy5mw 2 месяца назад

Interesting, so maybe the next time/generation go down to 400cc

@whiskywhippet 2 месяца назад

I’d rather have this than my old 675 Daytona these days. I’m 14 years older and this would suit me better now.

I've got a 2009 daytona that has helibars and it's actually quite comfortable. Much more torque than other 600's so great in traffic. I've got a few mods on it so it weighs 399 pounds wet. Very flickable compared to most modern bikes.

@neillambton4065 2 месяца назад

Totally aggree, i road tested the Destination Triumph Christchurch demonstrator on Saturday. What i found really surprising, was the amount of torque the engine has. While riding along at about 50 in 6th gear, you just twist the throttle, and it pulls like a train. It really is an amazing bike, and i do think, it`s the perfect sports bike for British roads. Just the right amount of power, comfortable, excellent brakes, and no fancy suspension to lose your mind with. Great vid, thanks for posting it.

You get it. Thank you for your real world perspective. So tired of hearing reviewers moan about "soft" suspension. The younger folk seem to think ALL sport bikes should be Supersports and track-ready. Here in Missouri, USA, I just received word this morning that I now have a VIN associated with my deposit on a Snowdonia bike. Thanks for confirmation of ergos and suspension. Already subbed, and will definitely share.

Great video Brother. I'm getting a little older (50). This bike is the perfect compromise for me. I have up my CBR 600 10 years ago and don't really think I could go back to that seating position. But this looks like it would be a great all arounder. And again, 95HP, is another good number for me. I would prefer to have power I can have fun with over power I can never (legally) access. Anyways, cheers from California and thanks again for the great review.

@richb5248 2 месяца назад

You’re so right, I’ve owned a 2018 StreetTriple 765R for over 2 years and never dared touch the suspension setup. I’d also say that the rider mode differences are unnoticeable on the road. Now I’m waiting for my local dealer to get a demonstrator.

@fizzyridertoo 2 месяца назад

I'm glad you brought up the point about not adjusting your suspension. I'm the same way. My Tiger 1200 has all kinds of adjustability, none of which I ever touch. I like that we are similar heights and weights and that you're an older rider too. Your tests resonate with me far more than some kid complaining about whether the bike has multi axis ABS or whatever. Even though I live in Texas my riding career started off in Scotland, so I'm very familiar with the kind of roads you ride.

Looks great to me. I get that people are disappointed it's not the aggressive beast of yesteryear....but put yourself in Triumphs shoes, the bike will sell to some on name alone, and the 'entry level' bikes are where the money is. Chances are therell be special editions or bigger siblings down the road.

Would love to add one of these to the stable. I came to riding late and I am too stiff to enjoy a a really aggressive sports bike. This sounds ideal. Triumph have got to make bikes people want to buy. Of course they should lean into the Daytona legacy, it is such a great name.

@justin2956 2 месяца назад

I’ve got a deposit on one here in Michigan. Thanks to Triumph for coming out with this bike that checked so many of the boxes I wanted in a bike. ~100hp, fairings, not upright but not supersport riding position and not a p-twin. I think this has everything but the RS660 beat in the category and that bike is expensive enough to almost be in a class of its own.

It's a trident rr. Also I'm more comfortable on a true sportsbike than anything upright so my 07 gsxr 600 is fine for the street. The street however is not fine for any vehicle but that isn't a bike problem. It's an authorities not using the resorces to maintain the roads problem.

@cocky_potato 2 месяца назад

Great video mate, well done, I just stumbled upon your channel - subscribed! On the new Daytona... Yeah, look, the bike itself is nice and all, but... it epitomises this new era of sportbikes that just doesn't resonate with me. I know that I am in the minority, but some of us are still dedicated. If people don't feel like riding a sportbike because it's too much work or whatever, they should get an MT-07 or something; they are great fun. Personally, I'd get the new baby blade over this everytime, anytime.

@grtbgf 2 месяца назад

Sport touring bikes have always existed. I think your only problem is the naming and marketing of them. Saying anyone who doesnt want a dedicated supersport should buy a naked is really dumb.

@cocky_potato 2 месяца назад

@@grtbgf Traditionally, sport touring machines tend to be bigger and more expensive then the 600cc... it's a different target demographic as well, I think. The more categories of motorcycles the merrier, sure, but I just feel sad seeing the decline of the in-line 4 screamers in favour of this modern breed.

@grtbgf 2 месяца назад

@@cocky_potato i'd also like me a sportsbike in my garage if i could afford to own 3-4 bikes. Most of us can't, sadly. The times are changing, and its not entirely manufacturers fault that superports are dying. Luckily plenty of them are left on the market.

@cocky_potato 2 месяца назад

@@grtbgf yup, in that we agree, we always want more bikes! And to be fair, money can be an issue, yes, but also the time... I reckon that with a 3-4 stable you just don't have time to ride all of them as much as you'd like. Regarding the manufacturers, you're right, they are simply adapting to what the vast majority wants. When you're not in said majority tho, you can't help but feeling dissapointed.
