The 765 cc in-line three-cylinder motor in the Daytona churns out 127 bhp at 12,250 rpm, while peak torque stands at 80 Nm.

While the design language is that of a slightly evolved version of the Triumph Daytona 765, it is the spec sheet that's does more exciting. The 765 cc in-line three-cylinder motor churns out 127 bhp at 12,250 rpm, while peak torque stands at 80 Nm. Supporting all that power is a carbon fibre bodywork along with Ohlins suspension including NIX30 forks at the front and TTX36 monoshock at the rear. Braking performance comes from Brembo Stylema brakes and there's an Arrow exhaust too. The TFT display has been carried over from the Street Triple and acces to different throttle maps. Triumph has yet to confirm the kerb weight on the motorcycle.
