    North America is Triumph's biggest market, mate....besides, is the 675 even made in the UK anymore??
     
  2. As said, 'fair one', what i should of added was, 'Bloody British/Indian Bike', my bad, as they say :)
     
  3. I wonder if it has a lower seat hieght? nobody seems to mention it but actually I know a few people that would desperately like a Daytona but are a bit short, without starting a hieght debate I know a lot of testers said that you sit a bit 'on the bike'.

    I'm still not sure on it. Really looking forward to see official photo's. I kinda like the following photoshop mock-up. Maybe like the below with the new fairings on post one of this thread would of been a safer option for Triumph. Perhaps because it looks almost like the current model though :lol:

    I like the vent at the back in the tail, and the front is looking a ok, not sure what to make of the 3rd light? Tail tidy would have to go though. :) Looks like a small arrow on the side. :)
     
  12. I've got mixed feelings so far. I would have to see it in flesh and in different colours.

    The more I see of this the more I think the designers just thought sod this, I won't use my own imagination I will take take bits off everyone else's bikes!!!! and hey presto here is our offering for 2013 - Shame on you... Triumph.

    Me I still love the current model. :cool:
     
  14. The new ZX6R looks 100x better imo. If it rides as well as it looks i may get one.

    Not keen so far.. not liking the rear and the third light isnt great, bit tacky i think? Im sure in person it will look pretty nice as most things do!
     
  17. That exhaust looks tiny. I have to say I really like the bike. I do think it looks a little bit like they have 'borowed' a few ideas.....

    But... I would have to have an 'R' because why am I going to go out and spend money on a bike that has exactly the same engine, forks and shock, and brakes as my bike? I doubt it is 6KG lighter, I bet it's more like 3KG lighter, still not bad but we will see.

    Maybe Triumph have pulled a trick here and by staying away from a total re-design they can hold the pricing for the stock bike making it still £1000+ cheaper than the competition?

    Triumph are getting right on my tits with their abject laziness tbh.

    I like the rear. ;)
    Will also wait until I can see it in the metal before passing judgement.
