Bloody impressive, four in a row. Any more awards and I will need to upsize my helmet.

And more from the Daytona's trophy list ...
MCN UK 2009 Sportsbike of the year (against the thous too)
Cycleworld 675 vs 848
Superbike May 600 class Supersport winner

These are just the ones I've come across in the last couple of months

AMCN 600 test results are due out next week.

Has KiwiRider done a 600 shootout lately BD that I missed? I don't buy every issue.

'I did a quick spin' when it first came out, and it's been tested since - a while ago - but Demos/press bikes are hard to come by because they tend to pre-sell them.

HP isn't everything. The reviews are also based on handling and comfort.

i guess thats the point tho, the extra 75 makes it that bit better / faster??
the Kawasaki suffered back when they cut the extra 36 off the 636.
what upsets me is that the honda has slipped back to 3rd!!!

Not apples and apples - it's a three cylinder engine. While I'm at it, it's a fucken peach an' all.

Qouted from the article:
"not only declared the Daytona 675 as the best supersport class bike, but the best sports machine of any capacity on the market."

and

"the Triumph was judged superior to the latest 1,000cc offerings from Aprilia, KTM and Yamaha"

Not that I am biased or anything

Whoohoo

Wasn't the Honda Cub the bike of the century? What's your point?
