Living with a 2001 Triumph Daytona 955i
By Daryll Young on 26/03/2002 14:52:33
Daryll 'Diddy' Young is a very nice man indeed. And he had a Triumph Daytona 955i to review for a year. He has since changed his name to Sean Coombs
was the 955 Speed Triple. I tested one last year and was bowled over by it. That was until our Road Test Editor, Niall Mackenzie, came back from the 955i Daytona launch in Portugal with tales of rear-wheel steering - yeah, maybe for you Niall - but at least

The Undertones - Hornet 900, 955i and ZX-9R
By Jon Urry on 15/01/2009 15:59:09
Sometimes bikes are launched that fail to excite and slip under the biking radar for one reason or another. We find three of the best.
market to come up with three bikes that for one reason or another slipped out of popularity. Triumph’s Daytona 955i was never the Japan-beating superbike that it promised to be, and neither was Kawasaki’s ZX-9R. Both fell foul of the R1, GSX-R1000

Road Test: ZX-9R vs. VFR vs. 955i
By Warren Pole on 20/04/2008 22:06:20
On the face of it, this is a pretty odd bunch of motorcycles. Take the motors for instance - a 781cc V4, an 955cc inline triple, and an 899cc inline four. Hmm, not exactly the most comparable bunch on the planet.
crown whenever that little test comes to town, and the 955i - a bike no-one quite seems to have been able to place just yet. Triumph themselves stressed at the launch it wasn't built to take on the big-bore track massive of the R1 and co, but clock

Road Test: R1200S v. RSV-R v. CBR1000RR v. 955i
By Tim Dickson on 20/05/2008 10:17:35
BMW wants us to know their new R1200S is very much a sports bike. But by whose reckoning? Theirs or ours? Sporting all-sorts go to the Alps to find out. And not a race track in sight...
improved fuel injection, a handful more bhp and very shiny Öhlins forks, all for £8999.Triumph's 955i has been around for, oh, ever such a long time now. Itself billed as a 'Blade beater' in its day, the Daytona has since quietly got on with being a

Used Review: Triumph Daytona T595-955i
By Bertie Simmonds on 05/04/2008 17:59:57
A revelation when it first appeared: here was a proper British effort at a big sportsbike. Over the years while the competition has got wilder, the Daytona has stayed milder which makes the mature Daytona a very solid road bike
the bike and ironing out the early bugs until it could stand alone as a machine which would become a modern classic and foster its own passionate band of owners and admirers.If you want to try and pigeon-hole the 955i, you could simply look at it as a rarer

Should Triumph make a superbike?
By Visordown News on 12/03/2012 14:40:49
A high-performance machine now could make sense
TRIUMPH hasn't made a real superbike for years. Not that it couldn't, you understand – the Daytona 675 and the rest of the firm's modern range show it's got the technology – but the Hinckley firm decided a decade ago that it just didn't want to play that game. Now the world's a v...

Used Test: 1998 Triumph Sprint ST
By Chris Moss on 14/09/2010 12:48:54
If you want a real-world alternative to Honda's venerable VFR, then look no further. Think VFR with character and soul and you're not far off the Sprint ST
and impressive performer. It's actually a very sorted, underrated bit of kit.Centrepiece of all the excellence is its muscular three-cylinder motor. Pilfered from the 955i Daytona sportsbike, and detuned to make it even more useable, it's an absolute gem. Peak
