Major upgrade for Triumph Daytona 660
The fine new ingredients in the new Triumph Daytona 660 include adjustable Showa front suspension, quickshifter Triumph Shift Assist and high-performance tires from Metzeler. Furthermore, the styling has been significantly redesigned, giving it just a little more punch visually as well.
More control, more feeling
The main gains are in the chassis. Triumph now uses a fully adjustable Showa upside-down fork, something you don’t often see in this class. Combined with the rear shock – which has adjustable spring preload – the Daytona is now much more customizable.
Sport tires and quickshifter
Also new: the machine comes standard on Metzeler M9RR Supersport tires. These are known for their grip and feedback, which you’ll notice especially when sport riding or taking in a track day. In addition, Triumph Shift Assist now comes standard. This means clutchless up and down shifting, giving an even more direct and sporty feel when riding.
Three-cylinder remains heart in Daytona 660
The 660 cc three-cylinder still delivers up to 70 kW (95 hp) and 69 Nm of torque, with a strong emphasis on the mid-range. What sets this engine apart from many competitors is that typical three-cylinder balance with more smoothness than a two-cylinder. 80% of the torque is available over almost the entire rev range.
Full of electronic support
The Daytona 660 is also right up to date electronically. You get three riding modes (Sport, Road and Rain), adjustable traction control and a sleek digital TFT display. Optional My Triumph Connectivity lets you link navigation, music and phone to the bike. It also has full LED lighting, including a headlight with recognizable daytime running lights.
Sporty and accessible
What makes the Daytona interesting is that it is sporty without being uncomfortable. The 810mm seat height (or 785mm with the seat low) and relatively relaxed clip-on position mean it’s great for everyday riding, too. Brakes with radial four-piston calipers and twin 310 mm discs provide plenty of power and feel, according to Triumph.
Triumph Daytona 660 with racing DNA
The Daytona 660 performs well not only on paper, but also on the track. The model already took titles in the Italian CIV and German IDM Sportbike classes, among others, and scored podiums in the British Championship. Participation in the new World Sportbike Championship is even planned for 2026.
Practical and affordable
Finally, another important plus: running costs remain relatively low. Service intervals are at 16,000 kilometers and you get a standard two-year warranty with no mileage restrictions. The new Daytona 660 will be at dealers from April 2026, with a price starting at €11,595.
