View Full Version : 2004 Triumph Daytona 600 road test

If ever there was a bike that appeared at the wrong moment, it was the Daytona 600. Brought in to replace the widely slated TT600, Triumph’s revamped middleweight sportsbike appeared, to a lot of praise. Unfortunately, shortly afterwards, Honda released the CBR600RR – a bike so good it won the next SIX World Supersport championships!

So the 600 was killed off, replaced by 650 version that also bit the bullet not long after.

So in 2004, the Daytona 600 was beaten by a quantum leap forwards. Half a dozen or so years later, do we care?

Triumph should re-develop and release a 21 century version of the 995i..
1050 triple fully dressed and ready to go....I buy!

They're a great bike. Although, when you turn one into a 450 triple it does need a diet and some work to make some power.

But man it handles nicely. Definitely comfortable for a 6 footer too.

Yeah, but I don't think they should be using the 1050!

I want to see 1199cc, forged pistons, 170bhp and many other goodies.:yes:
