Discover what to expect from the Triumph Daytona 660 launch in India, including engine specs, design features, riding modes, and expected pricing.
Triumph Motorcycles will finally unveil the new Daytona 660 in India tomorrow, August 29, 2024, after a protracted wait. The eagerly awaited motorcycle will eventually arrive in India and join the Trident 660 in the brand's range.
Bookings for the Triumph Daytona 660 began as early as June 2024, with the bike initially expected to arrive a few weeks earlier. But the motorcycle's launch was postponed because of problems. Enthusiasts throughout have been waiting impatiently for the Daytona 660's arrival.
While the official pricing for the Daytona 660 has not yet been announced, it is expected to carry a premium price tag around ₹ 9 lakh (ex-showroom). While the Daytona 660's closest rivals, the Kawasaki Ninja 650 and Aprilia RS 660, are priced at ₹ 16 lakh and ₹ 7.74 lakh, respectively, the Triumph Trident 660 has a starting price of ₹ 8.12 lakh (all prices ex-showroom, India).
The Trident 660 streetfighter and the Triumph Daytona 660 have similar foundations. It has a 660 cc in-line three-cylinder engine that produces 69 Nm of peak torque at 8,250 rpm and 93.8 horsepower at 11,250 rpm. Paired with a 6-speed gearbox, the engine offers about 80% of its torque from as low as 3,125 rpm, making it an excellent choice for both commuting and spirited riding.
The new Daytona 660 revives the iconic Daytona name within the Triumph family. In contrast to its predecessor's track-focused design, the new model is intended to be easier to ride on a daily basis. For a sporty look, the bike has split seats, twin LED headlamps, and a full-faired design.
The chassis includes a tubular steel perimeter frame, 41 mm Showa SFF-BP USD front forks, and a Showa preload-adjustable monoshock at the rear. Braking duties are handled by twin 310 mm discs at the front and a single 220 mm disc at the rear.
The Triumph Daytona 660 comes equipped with three riding modes—Road, Rain, and Sport—along with dual-channel ABS as standard. The bike rides on 17-inch alloy wheels, with a 120/70 section tyre up front and a 180/55 section tyre at the rear. A TFT instrument console adds a modern touch to the bike's cockpit. Triumph will offer the Daytona 660 in three color options: Satin Granite, Sapphire Black, and Carnival Red.
