Motorcycle specifications Triumph955 DAYTONA T595 1997 Sport à l'anglaise
presentation of the 955 DAYTONA T595 1997
following its renaissance, the 3-cylinder has become THE Triumph engine. It can be found in the T-bird as well as in the Tiger trail bike. On the T 595, you'll find a sporty version. Compared to its predecessor, this distiller has become lighter and less cumbersome, and the engineers have greatly optimized it. More horsepower, but less mid-range gniak. It loses a little of its personality, but retains the playfulness of the 3-legged: more torque down low than a 4, smoother than a twin, and plenty of reach. Pushed to the limit, the mill is enthusiastic, powerful and endowed with an intoxicating melody. The Daytona's originality doesn't stop there. The chassis features a curious but effective aluminum-tube perimeter frame and a superb single-sided swingarm. Added to this is an attractive, slender design with a strong identity. Not the lightest in its class, but certainly one of the most captivating. This new generation has gained in agility. The bike is lively and precise without being confusing. And with great braking, there's plenty to enjoy on the road.

Bikers' reviews Leave a review - 8 reviews
In short, the plumage is worth the ramage, with character for the hairy, old-fashioned biker (22 years on the road already... I'm getting old!)
As for DIY, the original battery is a pain, so replacing it with a lithium one is good, but modifying the wiring harness so that it doesn't consume power when stationary is even better. One day, in the rain, a big weight problem because an apprentice mechanic ran the harness too close to a moving part, the clutch doesn't support the adaptable discs and a neutral that can't be found, the mirrors with the plastic that cracks, ditto on the front GB, apart from that, good reliability for me
As you can imagine, its throaty growl has no equal for me, and it's always a pleasure for both of us to go for a ride... Rating : 4/5 Respond to BeB
the only downside is that having a well-charged battery doesn't support its weakness. Rating : 5/5 Respond to AIGLES64
super bike
excellent handling
perfect position for small frame
but you need a great battery for a good start
and nice bike, don't regret it Rating : 4/5 Respond to AIGLES64
- 3/4 return trips to the dealership to fix a few mechanical problems (I was kind of expecting them, since then it's been running like clockwork)
- a bit of research and testing to sort out the mechanics (amorto, fork), not so easy
Since then, it's been bliss: well tuned, it's very agile, it takes a lot of bends, the engine pushes well, and it feels great, the braking is as efficient as ever, with that very special feeling, which is the logical consequence: it's a real crime buster, but it's so good to get off with it
Finally, what a look! I still enjoy looking at it
I've got it, I'm keeping it. Rating : 5/5 Respond to will74
My conclusions
1. A very original line, which immediately puts this bike on a short list of mythical motorcycles along with the 916 and other 900 SS (I agree with Pierre-Mar)
2. An engine full of watts in the middle of the rev counter and violent above it, the power really comes on strong above 7000 rpm with the music in tune... (less torque than the Sprint, but more oomph, the two triples are well marked, each in a different register)
3. A strange position, leaning back, but not so much. The bike's hard to ride, so you have to go hard on the bracelets and accompany it with your upper body - it's sporty for the rider! (It's rustic, but in exchange you get a lot of sensations)
4. Top-notch front braking, as usual, a Triumph signature, and a major contributor to pleasure on twisty roads
Conclusion: a real English diva, so a 100% pleasure to buy, but not versatile enough for my mixed use, to be seen as a second bike (future collector), but my banker is going to scream... Rating : 5/5 Respond to will74
i bought mine in July 2006 and I still can't believe it!
the engine develops monstrous torque, followed by thrilling revs and a demonic noise (it sounds a bit like a flat-six porch from the 80s)
the bike's stability is exemplary, and it can be playful if you take the trouble to put it through its paces (it's not a GSXR or an R1, it doesn't have autopilot)
A man's bike that only likes to be pushed around
I'm a fan, and its timeless design puts it right up there with the Ducati SS Carbu in the pantheon of racy motorcycles on which you'll sit with respect
Otherwise, it's reliable and greedy on tires
I can't get off my little cloud, and I'm not about to let it go. Rating : 5/5 Respond to Pierre-Mar
