Daytona

The name Daytona goes way back to 1966. Speed, performance and racing have long been at the heart of Triumph’s motorcycles. Buddy Elmore won the iconic Daytona 200 race on a Tiger 100, starting from 46 th on the grid and averaging an impressive 96.6mph. The following year, the company released the Tiger Daytona to celebrate Buddy’s amazing victory. Twenty-three years later, Triumph reintroduced the name, reigniting the racing spirit. Launched in 1997, the Daytona T595 was Triumph’s first ‘modern-era’ fully focused sports bike, designed to go head-to-head with the competition. With 128bhp and a top speed of 161mph it featured an innovation in fuel injection, an all-new performance triple engine and a narrow lightweight frame. In 2006, Triumph broke the mould all over again with the triple powered Daytona 675, launched to international acclaim and 5-star reviews worldwide. Built to race, it established Triumph as a force in supersport racing, taking titles at the Isle of Man TT, the North West 200, the British and German Supersport championships and rewriting history with a grandstanding win at the Daytona 200 in 2014, where the Daytona legend began. And in the last 20 years Triumphs have returned to racing and the top step to continue the Daytona legacy, winning at the Isle of Man TT with Bruce Anstey and Gary Johnson, winning at the British, German and French Supersport championships, winning the iconic the Daytona 200 all over again with Danny Eslick in 2014 and competing in the prestigious World Supersport championship – all on the Daytona. Now as official engine of the Moto2 TM championship from 2019, with its Daytona-derived 765cc triple, Triumph continues this peerless bloodline.
