Daytona 675.
Daytona 675.

Daytona early this year has a three-cylinder, iconic architecture of the English brand. At first glance with its capacity of 675cm3, the Daytona 675 is aligned opposite to 600cm3 with a better barrel, which some consider fun sports we like in this category.

Start with the heart of the machine, the famous three-cylinder injection 675cm3. From the start, the sound is mesmerizing. The characteristic sound of these engines is very deaf despite engine capacity lower than the rest of the range (6100tr/min to 94db).

The first sequence in the saddle of the Daytona 675 shows that the engine is not afraid to descend into the towers. Indeed, it is easy to take on any 3000tr/min report and even less on the former, with certain vivacity and a rise in the open.

Even if it's around 9000tr/min the machine actually becomes explosive, the demarcation is less than a four-cylinder 600cm3. If it is necessary to remain high in the towers on them, the three cylinders will resume much lower unabated. Therefore, the output of corners becomes much more vivid and simply easier if the curve was not ideal. How to use this engine in low and mid-scheme is much closer to a 750 four-cylinder with a 600.

But who said that sport and high regimes in this area, the Daytona 675 is no exception. With its red zone placed 14000tr/min, climbs faster and under a range of great use, the acceleration seems more finished. Look at the meter will not be too much for road use, speed climbs quickly.

For the pleasure of the senses, the ears will be filled by the sound of three cylinders, which is still to be heard over the entire range. Whether through the exhaust or the admission with a very strong noise, the atmosphere is ensured racing. It is Impossible to remain indifferent to this melody.

The chassis provides a rigid copy whatever the coating, in a straight line as fast, the machine swallows unmoving. The 41mm fork and shock is separate bottle, of course, fully adjustable compression, relaxation and preload. Otherwise adjust the settings for those who are considering use "track" with this Triumph.

To stop it all, plus an engine brake interestingly, the Daytona is equipped with two front discs with floating calipers 308mm four pistons mounted radially. The attack is easily determined; the power will go to curb two fingers carefree and hoses type avia guarantee a constant brake on the entire range. What crush the lever back without thinking?

At the rear there is a single 220mm disc with dual piston caliper quite classic was perfectly usable and determined the crew to slow or stabilize a little curve in the machine if necessary when it closes for example.

So it is much for the technical presentation of the main elements. But this machine is not remarkable technical points. The Daytona 675 is also the feeling that we had rarely encountered so far starting with the position.

Saddle up, the machine is very tight and seems very small. A feeling far removed from the four cylinders and that there are more ships to the handlebars of a twin sports. With the bracelet very low handlebars, footrests back enough and relatively high seat, the position of the driver is really diving forward. Needless to say that tourism does not appear to the cup of tea in this machine, efficiency is the watchword and the driving position is not an exception to the rule.

Hidden behind the small bubble that protects good wind condition to be lying on the tank, there is a scoreboard complete with ultra-white light of the most beautiful for the night. On the right, the tachometer needle throne, inevitable in the eyes of the pilot. The digital speed meter is included at the bottom of this part and is ultimately difficult to read because too small, a matter of getting used to. On the right side of the towers, visible blue LED will light one at a time approaching the red zone, which optimize gearshift if the sound of three cylinders is not sufficient to know where we is. On the left a digital display shows a lot of information: the report urged, time, mileage from the start, average speed, maximum speed, mileage (in addition to the two trips), consumption average (around 8 liters per 100km), the instantaneous, and time to roll and even a lap if necessary.

Already aesthetically, its delicacy is enhanced by the narrowness of the fairing, the rear and very slender openwork under the seat of the driver that ends with the exhaust with three exits to remind the three cylinders. The black frame and swingarm openwork also reinforce the impression of lightness that is not only the machine with a minimum weight of 165kg.

The overall comfort handlebar is correct if the pace is too. Saddle facilitates positioning and remains constant in time for his posterior. The position in the attack does not piloting a reasonable and even if the machine offers everything you need to accommodate a passenger, let alone one that will best handling of this incredible Daytona.

The angle changes are made with surprising speed and force. Support is immediately transmitted to the machine, nothing moves in curves, the mix of gases is simplified to the extreme on this small displacement by a range of great use and the brakes respond specifically to what we ordered: Basically everything connects very quickly without fatigue to drive fast, though, and especially long. Most athletes will no doubt be interested to get out fast curves and manage fatigue just sitting in taxi or competition. For those who do ride on the road, the vast range of use that little Daytona 675 turns into a weapon as soon as you leave the main or city.

In the end, this machine can be designed not only to those who want to ride on a different sport sharp. With its engine efficiency breathtaking, it was more the feeling of riding on the handlebars of a four-cylinder 750cm3 than a 600. Outside of the extension probably closer to a 600 times the strong and the couple's three-cylinder approaching a 750 with a little more spontaneity probably due to lightness and space of the machine close to a twin sport. In summary, the Daytona 675 is the essence of what it takes to be effective as soon as there is sport.

Daytona 675 is available in Scorched Yellow (yellow), Tornado Red (red) or Graphite (gray with yellow lettering) at a suggested retail price of 10,390 Euros.

We can namely for pistards, Triumph dealers offering poly for the Daytona 675.
