2013 Triumph Daytona 675 and 675R Reviews

The Triumph brand has 125 years and suffered quite a lot up to today, but now it is a well established company that makes great bikes. To prove that we have here the new Daytona 675 and 675R.
 

It now has an output of 126bhp @ 12.600rpm, which is 2bhp more then the 2012 model thanks to a wider bore and shorter stroke, and it redlines at 14.400rpm. The torque also increased, so now the value is at 75Nm (55.3lbs/ft).
The most obvious change happens with the exhaust that is now on the right side and also lower to help center the mass. The previous version had it undertail. About the engine, it now has 2 fuel injectors on each of its three cylinders plus titanium valves shaped in a way that helps obtain optimum flow. There is also a six-speed gearbox that features a slipper clutch.
 
The suspension is the latest from KYB and includes a redesigned rear shock. Pirelli Supercorsa tires are fitted as standard, as well as a new switchable ABS system, that has a late-intervention track setting that allows for a little rear wheel drift.
 
The bike frame is shorter, simpler and stronger with slightly steeper steering geometry and a shorter wheelbase, it also has a new die-cast aluminum subframe.

On the Daytona 675R we get an Öhlins TTX rear shock and NIX30 inverted fork. It also gets the latest in Brembo Monobloc brake calipers and several parts in carbon fiber.
