Triumph Daytona 660: a sporty motorcycle with a three-cylinder engine
The Triumph Daytona 660 is a sporty motorcycle with a 660 cm³ three-cylinder engine, produced from 2024. We take a look at the engine, equipment, and what to check when buying a used one.
Daytona 660 at a glance
The Daytona 660 is a class-leading sporty motorcycle designed for everyday riding and fun, not just the track. It comes with a full suite of lights, yet the riding position remains quite comfortable.
The model is based on the Trident 660, so it shares the same reliable three-cylinder technology but with a sportier style and handling.
Versions and A2 category
The Daytona 660 has been in production since 2024, so the used market is still small. The engine power is around 95 hp, so the base version requires an A license.
Check with the seller and the documents to see if a specific motorcycle has the option for A2 category power restriction.
Engine and gearbox
The motorcycle uses a 660 cm³ liquid-cooled three-cylinder engine with around 95 hp. It's particularly strong in the mid-range, where most riding happens.
The gearbox is a mechanical unit with a slipper clutch. Electronics include ABS, traction control, and several riding modes, while a quickshifter can be added as optional extras.
What to check when buying a used Daytona 660
Sporty motorcycles often get knocked about or ridden aggressively, so inspect the lights, handlebars, mirrors, and moving parts. Check the brakes, tyres, and chain.
Test the electronics and engine performance when cold and hot. Ask for the service history and check if scheduled maintenance has been carried out.
If the motorcycle has additional equipment (exhaust system, quickshifter), check if it's properly installed.
