your Daytona old ? Since Triumph launched its new model the 16th of February, T595 and 955i owners will not look at their pride and joy in the same way. As u probably read in the latest news section, there is a meaner Daytona in town now. This page will be updated regularly, to try to gauge the old Daytona versus the new one. As for now, no one's test-ridden the new bike, so no Dynamic comparaisons can be made, but as far as looks go, everyone can offer his/her opinion. The following are the main changes from the previous models: Key Features - Engine Increased power output of 149PS (147bhp) at 10,700rpm New cylinder head with revised valves and narrower included angle Ports and combustion chamber are CNC machined for greater consistency New pistons and conrods; higher 12:1 compression ratio Revised fuel-injection system with lambda sensor for constant optimisation Uprated cooling and lubrication systems High pressure die-cast (HPDC) crankcases for improved consistency Direct drive to alternator/starter motor reduces noise Improved gearshift action Key Features - Chassis Restyled, lighter bodywork with new, more powerful twin headlamp unit Dry weight reduced by 10kg to 188kg Tubular aluminium frame retained but with steeper steering geometry Shorter wheelbase and narrower, 180/55 rear tyre further improve agility New twin-sided aluminium swing-arm contributes 3.3kg to weight loss Lightweight 17-inch front wheel for easier steering Revised handlebar position and reshaped, larger fuel tank New digital instrument console |
