Triumph Daytona 1050

February 13th, 2010

Found this concept photo of a Triumph Daytona 1050 from Performance Bikes Magazine out of the UK. The bike does look sexy, especially with the LED headlights like the new Audi cars. This concept has been around for a while, but it still looks modern and amazing in 2010. It is unknown whether Triumph is actively working on a Daytona 1050, but since Triumph does make the Speed Triple, it is conceivable that Triumph could come out with its bigger brother if the market is there for it.

Welcome to my new blog. Since I visit about 10 motorcycle forums any single day, there are times when I want to remember a good post but not bookmark it. So I created this site to summarize good posts found on forums for reference, and hopefully give everybody else a reader's digest summary of what can be super long threads.

A bit about me. I have been interested in sport bikes since I was 10 when I first my first Kawasaki Ninja in Malaysia. But it took me another 20 years to finally have enough money and maturity to buy a motorcycle. I got my motorcycle permit (called Class 6 license here in Alberta, Canada) in 2007 and have been riding 5000km/year steadily ever since. My first bike was a 1996 Kawasaki EX500. Within the year, I got sick of dealing with the bike's carburetor, so I found a fuel injected 2003 SV650s instead. Now I'm gradually learning good sport bike habits before I buy myself an Europeon super sport bike such as a Triumph or a Ducati.

Until then, I plan on posting everything I learn about sport bikes along the way.

Cheers, Melvin :)
