Last night, Triumph released a new car trailer, the Daytona series of imitation races officially returned, based on the Trident 660 platform of the three-cylinder imitation Daytona 660, officially set for January 9, 2024, although it is not a three-cylinder imitation race of the 765 platform, but the imminent arrival of Daytona 660 seems to have laid the foundation for the future Daytona 765.
In addition, Triumph also announced a deliberately dark Daytona 660**, although there are almost no details, but the general outline and the shape of this set of double headlights, compared with the previous road test spy photos, can basically be seated.
The frame of the Triumph Daytona 660 should still be from the Trident 660, but the front shock, wheels and brakes have been enhanced, which indicates that the Daytona 660's engine should have been tuned to have higher performance, and it needs stronger hardware support. But the Daytona 660 doesn't offer a more combative riding triangle like the Yamaha R7, and the Daytona 660's handlebars appear taller and wider, more like a street run like the CBR650R.
In terms of exterior design, the Daytona 660 did not completely abandon the characteristics of its predecessor, at least in the general outline, you can still see some family shadows, halogen headlights are naturally abandoned, replaced by LED double headlights with a smaller area and sharper lines. However, the windshield and the front of the car** resemble air intakes.
From this picture, it is not difficult to find that the changes in the configuration of the Daytona 660, the most obvious is that the front brake has been upgraded from the Nissin dual-piston caliper of the Trident 660 to the radial four-piston brake caliper of the suspected Nishito, and the tires have also been replaced with Michelin's, and the shock absorption is still undecidable. Although it is still a hidden exhaust, the lengthening of the exhaust outlet seems to prove that this design may not be the final shape. In addition, the Daytona 660's gauge continues the design of the Trident 660 and has not been upgraded to the TFT form.
There are a lot of four-cylinder imitations on the market, and there are also a lot of two-cylinder imitations, but three-cylinder imitations are very scarce, not to mention the 650 level, it seems that in addition to the 675SR announced by Chunfeng and the 703RR announced by Shengshi, there is only Triumph This Daytona 660 is left, and this car is obviously going to be listed first, considering the ** of Trident 660, how much do you think Daytona 660 will sell for in the end.
