 LONDON, U.K, 11 DECEMBER 2006 - It’s official: The Triumph
Daytona 675 is the International Bike of
the Year with praise from the professionals heaped on its incredible performance,
unique character, stunning looks and superb handling.
Topping the prestigious 2006
International Bike of the Year (IBOTY) poll with a comfortable majority of the
votes, the Triumph Daytona 675 has well and truly confirmed its status as the
premier high performance motorcycle on the market.
This stylish machine crushed
its closest competition, amassing more than twice the number of votes as any of
its rivals and was awarded maximum votes by an astounding 6 of the 15
leading motorcycle magazines that participated.
This prestigious honour
rounds off a superb year for Triumph’s newcomer, which has scooped a wealth of
accolades from the world’s media. It was also victorious in the Supersport class at the
world’s biggest sportsbike shootout, Masterbike, and has been named as bike of the

Year Award with the Daytona 675 is a superb achievement for Triumph and we continue
to be extremely proud of the bike that we have created. The Daytona 675 has
now won nearly every motorcycle comparison test going, and we are confident
that it will continue to achieve great things, as will the rest of our range for 2007.”
The Daytona 675 has
redefined the standard for high performance sports bikes. It offers the perfect
combination of handling, performance and looks. New to the already eye catching array
of colours is a sleek black option and with its unique triple engine, which provides a
rich and glorious growl, this exceptional motorcycle is undoubtedly the coolest
model on the market.
