I don't often get that tingly feeling for new bikes. I love mine too much.
But dayum....this bike is HAWT. A friend is looking at picking one up. :drool: |
Ooooooooooooooo, that is pretty. I'd do it... er, ride it.
|
racerboy on here picked one up a few weeks ago.
I still haven't seen it yet, bastard. I think white and blue is the best color combo possible. |
shes def pretty but i still think i liked the old SE better. Black and gold was to die for
|
Yessiree, I do like that color combination. Sweet bike, too.
|
That is a really good looking bike. And with a full system sound so unique and bad-ass
|
I like it..
|
And here I thought you posted your PM to me in the forum.:D
That bike is pretty sweet! |
Oh lordy!
That is sexy! Triumph=Style |
That am purdie.
|
I test rode a 675 last summer....flogged the piss out of it....fantastic bike.
|
Oooooooooooooh....a Penn State Edition.

|
Very nice! :)
|
That blue and white is a sharp looking combo in the pic. I haven't seen one in person like that...very nice.
|
The painted frame on the anni is cool, but I want mine in red!

looks sick... if they'd have made the forks the same blue it'd have been perfect IMO...
|
Nice color........Can't deal with its scrunched-up riding position though. Track-only IMO. Nowhere near as comfy as a CBR or GSXR.

That bike looks pretty sweet! I love the blue and white.

That bike looks MUCH better in person....Biker's Edge here in Wichita has one. $11,300 OTD including the Two Brothers exhaust
Strip off the passenger pegs...put on the solo cowl...add some Arata rearsets....flush mount signals....PC/air cleaner/custom map....yeah...it would be HOT. I wish now I wouldn't have stopped in to see it....got a raging fucking woodie for it. :lmao: http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w...aytona_675.jpg |
The 675 just isn't enough motor. Sounds pretty awesome though. My buddy has one and he loves it. :idk:

I have a 636 and I don't have to "rev the shit out of it" to keep up with anything. :idk: |

I don't know nor am I going to look it up to argue with you on the internet.
I just don't understand why you feel you can't keep up with a 675 motor. :scratch: I ride with all types of riders and bikes and never feel like I'm working at it. :shrug: |
Quote:
|
I'm sorry. I read it as keeping up but after looking back I see you said "getting a response" out of it. Fair enough!
Still sexy! :lol |
Dont get me wrong, they are awesome bikes. If I was in the market for a fully faired middleweight I'd be looking at a Triumph. Especially the blue and white. I love blue and white bikes. The Buell XB's, the 1125, the Triumphs.

It looks sweet but that swingarm looks so damn frail.
As far as middleweights go I still prefer the GSXR750, not that I'd own one again but... liter performance from a 600 weight class... you can't beat it. |
Quote:
I know this 675 and even the 636 mentioned would have more down low...or at least I think they should but up top the R6 is a blast. Saturday morning we got up and went for a ride. I hopped on my R1...hit the road...went through the gears and said..."ahhhh...daddy's home !!" :lol: I know the track is different but on the street...give me my litre please. I've already mentioned that I think the 675 in the original post is sexy...and it is !! Quote:
|
The 675's whole gimmick is that it has more torque than a 600 I4...but in reality the torque numbers aren't that much different. I'd imagine the triple puts its peak torque down in the rev range a bit more than the I4.

I know on the R6 at 6-7k rpm...it is as flat as a coca-cola that has been sitting in the fridge for a week with no cap on it. :lol: Once you hit 10k...all the way to close to 17k it's like an energy drink !! :lol:
Being flat down low though...in all honesty did play in to the reason my wife was turned loose on one as her first bike. She's not a kid so she paid attention when I told her DO NOT rev it past 8k...period !! :lol: Now that it's been 2 years she revs the pizz out of it. :idk: |

I know one thing though...when I twist the grip on my R1...it goes. :idk: |

In daily riding whether on a spirited run or just riding around I never hammer it at exactly 5500 rpm in 2nd gear evidently. If you hammer it at 5k or below it doesn't do it or 6000 or above...you have to be doing pretty much exactly 5500 in 2nd gear and 2nd gear only. No other gear at 5500 rpm would result in the same hesitation. :idk: A software issue no doubt. |

If it's an auto inline six...I'm gonna try it in my Cherokee on the way home after work. :lol: |

Saw one up close at the local Triumph dealer this weekend while out riding. The pearl white is badass, but I'm not sold on the shade of blue. I think a darker blue (think mako blue) would have been a better choice...but that's just my opinion.

I may swing by and check one out. A friend totalled his R6 and is shopping around for his next bike.
|
that is a sexy bike. Throw a bigger motor in it though, as was already said.
|
You guys crack me up with your bigger motor nonsense.
I've never heard anyone say that about an R6, GSXR-6, CBR-6, ZX6, etc. IT IS A MIDDLEWEIGHT BIKE! If you want a bigger motor, buy a different bike. |

Usually, a new motor means new frame, geometry, etc. Essentially a new bike. Ducati is the only brand to successfully offer the same basic (sport) bike with two different powerplants. |

A 1050 motor in that would be awesome. |

The probelm as I see it is that Triumph doesn't have the R&D budget to design a full on superbike capable of competing with the big 4. Anything less would be a Sprint with less comfort. :idk: |

They still make that thing? |
Quote:
The 955 and earlier Daytona's were their own breed of street-sport. Since the 675 was introduced they have stepped into the realm of track-built bike with lights. |
Quote:
But they did try. |
Quote:
At that time, those bikes were street bikes and have been subsequently dropped from the model line in favor of the new superbikes. |
Quote:
UMMM.... In case you havent noticed, theres an R1, GSXR1k, CBR1KRR, ZX10R... So you dont have to say that. I, for one, would never buy one of their smaller siblings. |
Quote:
Which of the bikes you listed is the same as its little brother other than displacement? |
The differences are small, and in some cases, only a year behind...

It's very tough to distinguish this: http://www.redbluffyamaha.com/motorc...zf-r6-2009.jpg From this: http://hellforleathermagazine.com/im...amaha_R1-1.jpg |
the new r1 is a redesign, and Yamaha is best at keeping them seperate. The gsxr and cbr are very close to the same.
As I said 3 times now, ive got no interest in a 600cc engine in a sportbike. |
Quote:
The Honda's have less similarities than the Yammies. I never debated your interest in a 600cc bike. I do find your interest in this thread ironic though. :lol: |
I still love sportbikes man. I didnt wake up one day and say 'Hey, I hate sportbikes, I want a Harley now', just at 6'4, 290, im not exactly comfortable on modern litre bikes.

Don't take my word for it...I still like RF-900's and ride a 16 year old bike. |
