Both bikes look almost production-ready
  • The new Daytona packs a bigger motor and better electronics.
  • The Thruxton R, on the other hand, features blacked-out mechanicals.
  • Triumph will also be launching a special edition model of the Triumph Daytona 765 which will be limited to 765 units worldwide. 
  • After months of salivating over the Moto2-spec Daytona 765, Triumph has finally confirmed that the road-going version of the Daytona 765 will go into production in 2020! The British manufacturer will also introduce a special edition model of the bike, of which only 765 units will be made available worldwide. This exclusive bike features a unique livery and individual unit’s numbers laser etched on top of the triple clamp. It will be unveiled with its exact specifications on August 23. In fact, the production-ready model of the bike has been spotted testing once again overseas.

    The spy images paint a better picture of the upcoming supersport. Not much has changed in terms of design when compared to the previous-gen model. However, the bike's biggest talking point is its engine. It’s 765cc, inline 3-cylinder motor should put out power figures hovering around the 130-135PS mark. It’s claimed to be lighter than the previous-gen model, pack the same TFT colour dash as the Street Triple RS and feature a low-slung titanium exhaust from Arrow. The 2020 Triumph Daytona 765 also gets improved electronic rider aids along with a bi-directional quick-shifter.

    But that’s not all, a second test bike from Triumph has also been spotted testing alongside the mid-displacement supersport. The bike in question is the neo-retro styled 2019 Triumph Thruxton R Black which gets cosmetic updates like a blacked-out engine and spoked wheels. The gold paint forks give way to blacked out ones featuring gold stanchions. Aside from this, it looks like the bike remains unchanged.
