2016 Triumph Daytona 675 R Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around Triumph's sport motorcycle platform, the 2016 Triumph Daytona 675 R pairs a 675 cc (41.2 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 128 HP (93.4 kW) at 12,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 74 Nm (54.6 lb-ft) at 11,900 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 189.6 HP per liter and a 600 rpm working window between peak torque (11,900 rpm) and peak power (12,500 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Daytona 675 R measures 189 kg (417 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.68 HP/kg (1.48 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 830 mm (32.7 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,375 mm (54.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 17.4-liter (4.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
