I own a ‘23 Trident 660 and a ‘15 Daytona 675. When I heard that Triumph had been testing another sportbike platform I was very excited. While I think this new Daytona looks great, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed in the less powerful engine. While this looks like a great bike on its own I don’t think it compares to the previous Daytona models, and I’m not too sure it deserves the Daytona name.
THANK YOU!!!!!! As a previous owner of a 17 675R in white... this is a shame. I think it looks basic bch to me where i loved how premium it felt new in 17. Now you might as well buy a Ninja, or R6, or CBR 600. Im not buying it and they shouldn't be selling it.
@@aurorajones8481 Selling yes, but not with the Daytona name.
I you want a "new daytona" you have to go to the speed triple 1200rr. This is something more confortable. It makes a lot of sense. Im tired of the rr position. Looking for trading for this bike.
interesting persepectives. I'm on a ninja400 and I'm quite disappointed in the lack of options to bridge the gap between the endless sea of naked bike hype and unforgiving ergos and streetability of proper supersports. Bikes like the FZ1 are great for crusing, have so much power but are heavy, a bit too upright, and lack the handling I want for doing some canyons. The other FZs (6, 8, 9) all have their compromises too (i'd get the FZ8 Fazer if it was actually sold in the USA instead of just the naked version). The rest in the category are too naked and get very old and annoying on the highway.
I think this bike has the potential to be great and I'm looking at this along with the street triple
It would be nice to have either a analog speedo or a tft , the led screen will kill most peoples thrill of having it , it looks well integrated in the trident but the daytona looks like it was made in a rush it looks outdated but not in a good way
As a 675 owner this is not what I wanted for a Daytona branded bike. I'm sure it will be fun to ride and I look forward to trying it when my dealer gets one but I'm disappointed at this point. Thanks for taking the time to make the video on it and stay safe.
675R owner here. Disappointed too but I think we need to remember these bikes aren't for us and only the moniker is the same. Built to a much lower budget with budget parts, lower power, diluted dynamics and A2 friendly. These are beginner bikes not supersports. We just need to hope they make a proper sports bike off the back of this.
@@kw4n1987 I can appreciate that idea and to can understand the logic behind it. I absolutely loved the trident and tiger sport 660 and its absolutely a solid idea to build a middlewieght sport bike off that platform. I guess I have been hoping for a full line of Daytona bikes using the 660, 765, 900 and the 1160cc triples. Just a dream lol.
Agreed. The Daytona name shouldnt be on a budget friendly intermediate/beginner bike. They should have taken the 765 street triple as a platform, faired it, clip ons, tune and adjust/change brakes and suspension to a premium grade. The Daytona is supposed to be a middle weight supersport race bike for the road.
@@TangMan14 triumph use the name daytona more often for also different bikes, just like the Bonneville Daytona, so the name Daytona isn't belong to a racer only
We all could knew it would be something like this, cos it's the 660 and not the 765
I also hope they make also a Daytona of the Street Triple
Yup, I was hoping that they wouldn't call it a Daytona, too. (I also own a D675.) But I also understand why they did it. One could reason that Triumph is perfectly set up to do just what you've suggested but, I also think it's a pipe dream. Let's face it, they didn't sell enough Daytona 675s after about 2011 along with the rest of the manufacturers making supersport bikes. I shake my head when I see hundreds of comments screaming for a Daytona 765. Only a handful of those people will actually buy one.
Aprilia just breathed a sigh of relief
As far as I'm concerned I'd take the Daytona 10x over the Aprilia
The Daytona Engine will probably last longer. At least I hope it will. @@6amamoeba677
Nah… although the aprilia is more expensive, it does have much better cost performance
@@6amamoeba677 why, the Aprilia looks better, makes more power, and has more features, the only reason to gets a 660 is the triple and reliability or just get a street triple its better than both except fairings
@@radicalkonrad765 the Aprilia is more expensive, smaller and way less comfortable. Reliability aside the engine isn't as smooth either. Also power to the rear wheel is the same as the triumph anyway
I personally love it! Very simple and straight to the point this bike. The everyday sport bike. Definitely in my top 3 bikes to get!
Same here!! The other top contender is the Suzuki Gsx-8r
@@chrissy.v literally my exact thought
At this price point there are great used bike in USA
@@6amamoeba677 🙀🤝✨
Me too, I've a 2016 Street Triple, this looks way better and I'm sure it'd be fast enough for me.
they need to do a Daytona based on the Street Triple 765 RS!
They basically did, the Daytona 765 moto2
@@Kawasaki10rr Yea but only 765 limited edition for like 20k.
I really hoped the would just smash a fairing on the current Street Triples and put clip ons on it. but maaaann.
My second bike is a Daytona 955i from 2000 i hoped to get some never bike with similar power but lighter weight and more safety features plus Quickshifter and such.
But my Speed Twin 1200 will smoke this thing
It IS a daytona. Just get a fairing. There are three available, and the m2s fairing is even advertised on the triumph website.
@@DrHakennase the RS is practically identical to the moto2. Just get aftermarket fork cartridges. Frankly I wouldn't get the moto2 even if I had the option, Ohlins is overrated.
Great breakdown as always. Personally this bike is something I am interested in as a daily rider. A sporty street focused bike that’s easy to ride
In short, you want a naked bike. 😂
@@whatsgoingon71 no, my commute is 100 miles of interstate and highway. Fairings are really nice when it’s 20°F out in the spring and fall, but we get those nice 50° afternoons. I have a Scrambler now, buying a faired bike in the spring
@@sleeper.simulant7327 you will be fairly upright on that one. the handlebars look very high to me. And i wouldn't consider commuting 100 miles on a sports Bike anyway, since i value my wrists and back. But cudos to you.
@@whatsgoingon71 the scrambler is very upright, I feel like a wind sail on the interstate. I rode a GSXR 600 I had on loan for 2 weeks last year and it was awesome, even though it was leaned forward I could ride that position on the interstate for hours. These new street focused sports bikes are more upright, the bars are noticeably higher than the seat height, but still leaned forward enough. Like a Ninja 400 which is leaned forward but comfortable. I much prefer the leaned forward feel. It’s not as bad on the wrists and back as many say. I’m only 30 years old though, so it doesn’t bother me yet…
So a used cbr650r ?
Like it. Looks good in the red. It didn't do much for me at first, but the more I look at it, the more it grows on me. Proof will be in the pudding, but from an aesthetics point of view, it's definitely up there in that category. Maybe Triumph will put out something more aggressive in the future, I reckon this will be a good seller though.
Owned a trident for a while and loved the handling. The Daytona in red looks amazing. I'd buy one if I didn't have ICE constraints in Paris!
It's a great bike as it is, I'm simply sceptical how much justice will it do to the Daytona line-up and name.
I’m calling it the Jacksonville 660 - close ... but not really close....
@@ellwoodwolf 😂😂yep
Really great video, Bob. The new Honda 650R looks awesome!
congrats on the video, booking mine in Brazil for may debut
..Absolutely Love it!!!. My cousin has a Rocket 3, and I love the sound of 3 cylinders. I plan on getting a CBR650 this summer and already own a Ninja 650, but I might have to add this to my collection! Waiting on a full review, then I'll zero in on one.
That dash is a disappointment as is the fact that quick-shift/auto-blip are optional but this still is getting added into the running for my next bike. Love the influx of less aggressive sport bikes we're seeing!
just get a street triple
seems like market kinda gave them that reason to keep the qucikshifter as an accessory, similar to the CBR650R.
That dash is in some ways more functional than the fancy one on my Street Triple RS with the stupid tachometer (although I think that is getting addressed for the new model year). The one on the Trident/Tiger Sport 660/D660 is an LCD/TFT hybrid but it works well. Agree on the quick shifter and I wish the suspension was more adjustable. But Triumph sets up even the non-adjustable stuff well as long as you're not really heavy or really light. Should be a fun bike.
I agree on the dash, looks poor. It's like they've brought back the old ZX-10R dash that used to get slated.
It's good to see a Daytona back in the Triumph range. I'm pleasantly surprised because it's felt like the market has moved more towards retro/classic and adventure bikes. I hope it does well.
I like sports bikes but have tended to buy models with sports/tourer specs than super sports because I find them more practical for regular use and also good for a long journey or holiday yet with enough sportiness for fun. The earlier Hinckley Daytonas, 900, 955 etc. prior to the 675, were less sports inclined than the R1s, GSXRs and ZZRs of the same period.
Man... I was actually waiting and I knew that you will post a video talkin about this bike.. And there.. You have the bike already in flesh ❤❤
Given that anyone can get a daytona right now by just buying a 765RS and putting a fairing on it, this is a great addition to the lineup.
Looks awesome!!
Thanks for a great review. This bike is super-exciting. For someone who has 52 years of riding under the saddle and doesn't want to be tempted by excessive speed now, I reckon this is my ideal bike.
Amazing!
Wow, I never thought in the middle 90's that Triumph would come this far, amazing looking bike, well done! If they get their dealer network sorted out in the US they will really push the Big Four hard for sales!!
Damn first it was the “brand new” Honda Prelube and now the “brand new” Triumph Maybetona660
I saw other announcements on other channels but waited to see yours first! 😁
Okay, I know a few others have already mentioned this but I'll add to the chorus. For those who are pining for true supersport-spec Daytona 765, there already is one. It's called the Street Triple 765 RS (and the limited edition Moto2). It's also raced in MotoAmerica, BSB, and WSB. I know some people haven't been around as long as some of us but the Street Triple originally was just a stripped down, re-tuned Daytona 675. When Triumph cancelled the D675, they essentially put all the high-spec development into the Street Triple, particularly the RS variant. I have a first gen D675 and a '22 STRS and the main frame is nearly identical. And essentially, they are very similar bikes. Of course, the RS is more modern and has more advanced components but they are clearly of the exact same lineage.
The reason there is no longer a supersport Daytona is because ALMOST NO ONE WAS BUYING THEM. Same with almost every other supersport bike. If you want Triumph to build one, there has to be a market for one. Unfortunately, only a small fraction of those asking for one will actually buy one.
If you get to ride one soon, check if they have figured out that delayed throttle response that the trident had.
Great video and another great bike from Triumph, in my opinion the best all round bike manufacture.
Well hope Triumph put the Daytona treatment on the street triple platform again
Just knew motobob would have the first video!
@8:45 what a 'lovely' weld!
Think: Aprilia RS660 for 3K less! Personally, if the riding position isn't too difficult, I certainly would've added this to the very short list of potential bikes. On paper, the ONLY variance is weight, w/ the RS660 being 43Lbs. lighter! At $8,600, it's a great value. Oh, it's pretty sexy looking to boot. Maybe 'silk white' and consider it a fresh canvas for some bright, splashy primary colors. I think they're going to sell quite well, heck- I can't think of anyone who wouldn't love riding it.
Rethink: Not as many electronics as the Aprilia RS660 let alone the cruise control and the up and down shifter. I’ll stick around with my RS660 bonjourno! 🇮🇹
Brilliant! I believe that for that price, it's going to be unrivalled!
It looks very good, nice design.
Would love if they made a race trim option with better suspension
Great breakdown and interesting bike. Driving a Trident 660 i'm looking forward to get one from my dealer for testing.
Always thought they should bring this back. I just think we minimize how much we have to like the dealership to get one. Out here in Portland, I just grew out of love with them, with all the added/bogus fees. It looks nice though! Just think they should’ve added a bit more horsepower. With that said, I’ll keep my Z900rs Cafe.
First to see Daytona comeback's here!
I can't wait to see another review of this, once you are able to take one of these out for a proper ride.
Perfect everyday bike !! Return of sport bikes ❤️ no more expensive trails
The older Daytona was a real badass. This one is definitely the timid watered down version..
Excellent summary Bob. I was hoping much more for a Trident with the 1200 engine. But I guess due to the nice styling and price point it will sell very well.
I have a 2013 675r which sees the odd track day but mostly lives in the garage. I've never sold it because the engine at high revs is just glorious. I like the look of the new one, but it's not living up to the name.
I had the Tridy a same time. These specs as a Tridy R would definitely be a dealmaker......
Love it. Perfect road bike with a decent hint of sport, and 90bhp is spot on for the road
This and the Augusta F3 have the lines I’m after. I always like the slim, round and sharp edges. It’s just the refinement and tech im after in a newer bike; not the newest outlandish styling
It's what it is a cheap new lowish powered sport bike which looks similar to many others. Hardly the game changer Triumph said they were unavailing though. Be interesting to see how it compares to the new Suzuki GSX-8R, Aprilia RS660, Honda CBR650r and Yamaha R7? 🤔
I think they nailed it - 9 out of 10. Should have had fully adjustable forks and shock to give it 10/10
Perfect for highway touring
I have own the trident 660 with a quick shifter and love it plus the 2023 street triple RS, which I upgraded to the new 2024 model. I use whose bike fore backroad blast , but no one can take the. Full potential out of the 765 RS except on a racetrack, so as I see it. The 660 Daytone numbers are perfect for backroad’s racing, and the bike looks beautiful, and I’m seriously considering buying the 660 Daytona as bike number 2, If TRIUMPH CAN DELIVER IT WITH A QUICKSHIFTER.
I have been wishing for Triump to put a full fairing on the 765 RS. But they did it with the 660 instead. But i still think this new Daytona is really nice.
nice machine, and about time ,i`ll look forward to your road test,
see how it stacks up against the 675 ,god only knows why they
discontinued that daytona, so it needs to punch its weight!
it isnt even out and already looks outdated
Would you like it better with a wannabe lookalike of a yamaha mt series type of weird new age post apocalyptic front end?
Entry level..
7.30 I think it looks great. It's like a animal ready to spring forward. Looks very fast standing still.
Not everyone likes optimus prime/ cyclops style yamaha/ suzuki "headlights"
Neo-retro :))
I love the way this Daytona looks, and they tuned the engine perfectly compared to the Trident 660. I want one.
Woah its the mighty Gaytona!
Is there cornering ABS an cornering traction control?
Looks good and price is attractive.
Looks like, if Honda CBR 650 made in china instead of Japan.
A very nice bike to look at Triumph n heel nows wat te do!! 🧡😮
I regret that no blue colour is avaiable. But the red one is beautiful.
Really impressed with triumph 660 models , ADV version next??
I have a 675 Daytona 2010 SE Edition. I wish they bring back the old styling.
wow. everyone is realling coming for that aprilia RS660 market share
Looks good ❤ will be a direct rival for the cbr650r.
But in my opinion it would have gained much more attention if they made it like a mini speed triple rr instead of going for a fully faired daytona.
what do you think vs the Aprilia RS660?
the quality of the exhaust weld at 1:58 🙃
I've got Triumph branded callipers on a 99 ST
Can this front fairing be fitted to 2023 street triple ? So that it could solve street triple wind buffeting issues.
That is a nice looking bike.
While this bike dosent seem all that mind blowing for countries without license restrictions like USA countries Like Australia benefit from smaller displacement by like this which can be used on P plates. I think this is a great addition for newer riders
Bob. Where is the adventure 660? Still waiting for the affordable transalp/Tenere competitor with a Triumph badge
Good looking bike.
If i was still a beginner i would take the R7 of this. Currently riding a Daytona 675 OG and waiting for the release of the R9
This bike is going to be a real hit in the sector. Triumph have done an incredible job. As for the ´Daytona´ tag goes, if it had the 81hp powerplant the answer would be NO, this 95hp engine sneaks in there with a great torque curve. I think it´s worthy of it.
was the seat plush enough?
Reminds me of 2006/7 R6
This is what I wished in a bike. 3 cylinders, easy ergo, good looks, big bike feel, mid segment displacement, power and performance and premium quality. Well, can I afford? Hmmm...🤔☹️
I'm still waiting for that R9! 😄
I'd love to see this compared to the Aprillia RS660
Lets hope this is the precursor to a Daytona 765...
@1:58 what the hell is that weld?
With the power band and less aggressive seating it should make for a good sport bike for the everyday street use customer.
I think there is going to be a Daytona R, that should come up with more hard-core tech and riding triangle.
No , we need 765 Daytona R.
Correct 😂😂@@TheKing-xp7lq
Would love to see a Daytona 765
I’ve had the tiger sport for 2 years now , great bike , but that tft screen you can’t see a thing in bright sunlight ( sorry Bob you can’t) please manufacturers remedy this anti glare would be perfect or some sort of cowl . Ps I like the look of the Daytona especially in that red , my favourite colour of all time 😊👍👍
I look forward to the rr version
Should be compared against the CBR650R. Not to mention it looks similar on the front-end. Is that available in the UK?
Let's hope it sells well and Triumph bring out a full fat version with a bright / bolder colour scheme.
Watching from india.❤❤❤❤
I'm excited but, I was looking forward it being a bit better.
The new Triumph CB650 R looks so good.... oh i mean Daytona....
Rode 2007 Triumph Daytona 675. There were far better bikes from Japanese Big 4...but what it set apart from them, and what made it better was the SOUND! Metal griding, high pitched, thumping and roaring sound. Gone is this once-an-awesome sound of triple from Triumph...
Should have called it something like the Jackal. Daytona should have been the 765st. We know it. They know it.
I think the buell firebolt had some say in the build of this bike
Just the thing for spirited urban combat sporting.
I wonder if their is an RS version with some extra HP and better suspension, in the works. I'd be interested in that, for sure.
probably not
@radicalkonrad5856 I should be used to disappointment by now. Still waiting on that R9, "Pie In The Sky". Lol
I will say this is the most beautiful looking motorcycle right now in the market.
Would like to see more comparative commentary against the "other" 660 from Aprilia. It would seem the more direct competition, even if at a slightly higher price point.
The RS660 leaves this for dead in every way except price.
The Aprilia rides better but can't run a day without breaking apart.
Riding well be the proof, but this may be a brilliant move for Triumph! The last 675 Daytona was a wonderful expensive bike that didn't sell well. However, a 10k sport bike may sell in the numbers they need. In the past, Triumph has gotten a lot out of modest components with careful tuning and development. If that's the case here, it may be what the market needs. The first Daytona was a 500cc twin that was overshadowed by the 650 twin - but the 500 won the race the bike was named after
It not a Daytona but a Trident F
I agree with you 100%. This could have been branded as the Trident-F leaving room for a 765 Daytona.
I absolutely love Triumph, but their supersport bikes always look like they were designed a decade ago a few minutes after they're launched.
looks like street tripple got some fairings.
