2011 Triumph Daytone 675R

Not really sure I see the point of this for a race bike. With the exception of the brakes most people will already be putting a shock and cart kit in the front anyway.

 

weird, i have 3 675's and have not had a single prob with them.

ran 2 daytona 200's.

got a 16th in one with stock motor on pump gas.

against the majority of nice builds, i dont think i am getting motored. i shoud not eat so many bugers.

i have a built motor in my bike now with countless races and still puts out 130-133 hp all day long.

 

I agree, unless you don't have one to start with.

No reason in buying a new one, for there's zero Triumph money out there. Save $4,000 and get one with 1K miles on it.

 

And thats why we do it- Nothing like a bit of head shaking

 

Maybe you should try some N-Tecs.

 

LMAO!!! Oh snap!!:wow:

 

Tom didn't have a motor problem. He had an oil-cooler issue. The motor had zero damage.

For bling this new one is cool, but I will keep my old one that has everything I could ever need!

 

UPDATE: just came out with pricing in RRW and it's under 12k!

Base model, $10499, R model, 11,999!

So only $1500 for Ohlins front and back, and Brembos.

I'd call that a damn good deal!

I think they shoulda put another 3k into the motor, lighter wheels, and adjustable triple as all mentioned earlier and priced it at $14,999 for a turnkey racer. SS legal assassin at that point?

I'm surprised more manufacturers don't build homologation specials. This one's almost too inexpensive and they could have addressed a little more and still kept it reasonable.

 

Triumph doesn't even have a WSS team anymore, so I don't think they'll be pushing that envelope anytime soon

The only way you're going to make those 675 wheels any lighter with a Magnesium set. Add another $3500 right there.

I will agree that motor needs more to keep up with the Japanese. Stock vs. stock it's fine, but the i-4s take to engine mods a lot better. Tencate is getting close to 150 RWHP from their CBRs, the Park N Go bikes where maybe 135 tops.

 

I want one.

That's it, I need a second or higher paying job... building a house, going racing again, and wanting a Ducati Sportclassic 1000, a 675R and one of those little RC Motorcycles is doing nothing for my cashflow.

 

In WSS? Holy Christ! You're talking crank HP right?

What are they allowed to do in Super Stock there that gets them an extra 20 HP over what I usually hear quoted for SS here?

 

fixerated it for you

and if that's true, maybe they should put that motor in the Moto2 chassis

 

I'm drooling...

Nope, rear wheel. The lead mechanic was interviewed on motopod.com, in which the topic came up. 150 was an 'extreme' case, most averaged at 145. Also gotta factor in the dyno variables, and they didn't mention which one they used.

WSS engine rules are far more liberal than WERA or Daytona Sportbike. Only things restricted are pistons, cranks, cam lift (not duration) and a few others. They also run full electronics. Very expensive bikes overall.

 

Who cares how fast they are... Its the sound they make that gives me wood.

 

They do have a sound all of their own. Friends told me they can pick me out from other bikes just by the sound.

 

The sound like a small displacement car engine... or indycar

 

I'd say that would do a lot for your cash flow, at least in the out direction.

 

I guess a poor choice of words... Every time I see a 675, I want one.
