Riding the Triumph Daytona 600 Motorcycle

There's real go in the Daytona 600's rev range, but enough extra kick above 10,500rpm that you'll want to operate in that zone if you're going for it. But don't forget Moodie's advice to use a gear higher and ride the torque curve - in spite of the short stroke it's impressive by 600 Supersport standards.

Really, the Daytona 600 feels almost as strong as a 750 in terms of drive and grunt, a tribute as much to Keihin's work on the engine management system as anything. The Triumph feels responsive but controllable, with super-clean engine mapping that adds to the sense of refinement and sharpness. This is a [motorcycle] for real-world riding.
