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
I have a 2012 also had a 2006 which i ran (with love) to death for 6 years tracks touring and my main transport so no mistake made by you sir cant wait for the full specs on the new one though im not changing :}
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.
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.
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!
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?
my clothes rail at home's shorter than that monstrosity Triumph are getting right on my tits with their abject laziness tbh. Ducati time in the spring me thinks.
