Re: Daytona 765
I'm happy to test ride one for triumph if they want a real world review. Just show them my 765RS review. They'll want me on board after reading that.

Re: Daytona 765
I'm off to Portimao at the end of march and I would welcome a loaner in exchange for an extremely positive and clearly sponsored review of excellence

I could take one apart, and then put it back together, just to check everything is ok, for the hell off it and keep my OCD in order

Re: Daytona 765
You mean like the Triumph Factory Custom division? Yeah they’d never do something like thatD41 wrote:You want them to open a whole tuning division?? For a few hundred bikes...maybe a thousand??
Do you have any examples of bikes, rather than cars?? Ducati, maybe?

Re: Daytona 765
Well it's sounds like two are coming a limited edition model, likely to be full of bling, but high price, and a standard model, still I don't think it's going to be cheap.
However this week bulldog opened its doors for a new showroom open evening, and I have to say I do like the look of the speed twin in the flesh. Been told a really punchy engine, and a lot of fun. Will need to book a test ride.

Re: Daytona 765
Not the official Triumph bike but a French built special with a 765RS engine.

Re: Daytona 765
Really hope they make this bike as a 675 with 20 bhp more could be a perfect road bike imo.
Went for a ride with Rocket today and I'm on the 675 and he is on an R1 and even though neither of us were pressing on it was hard work to ride with a 50bhp deficit and keep up.
I reckon a 765 with 135-140ish real world horse power in a sweet handling, light weight chassis could be road bike perfection.
