Triumph Daytona 675
Anyone ride one of these? I think they look sweet but the low torque numbers scare me. 54 ft/lb peak torque. 123 hp though I love the black LE with the gold decals.

3 cyl gives the best of both worlds: low end grunt and high end scream. did a demo ride on it along with the 848 at the local duc dealership. felt better than the 848 hands down! but sounds and looks nowhere near as nice as the duc.

Narrow? Compared to an I4 maybe. Not compared to my 650R or the 1125R.

Physically narrow. And, yeah, it proly translates to quick transitions.

Ducati dealership in la brea. They have their big demos once a month but from what one of the dealers told me, you can try out their demo bikes any time.
But your right about the narrowness. You can tell just by looking at it. |
