Hello 675R Daytona

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to say hello, 34 on a whim after wanting to do my bike license for a long time, passed. I've always wanted a Daytona 675R and the dream has come true. I pick it up next week and will post up some pictures. The bike is pretty standard so the first things on my list are a Evotech tail tidy as the original looks horrible and will then go from there.

It's likely to be garaged and parked up for Winter, unless some good days come about but even then I'll be taking it easy.

Hopefully see some of the other bikes at meets and events next year.

 

Welcome to our friendly little forum Neilos30, excellent taste you're showing with that purchase and choice of tailtidy.
Is she the older version (underseat exhaust), or the '13 onwards version.?

 

Have another welcome. Always great to see new members. At exactly your age....I did the same thing. Lol. Perhaps post up a couple of pictures. It's always great to see what folk have bought.

 

it’s a 16 plate mate

 

will do mate, gets delivered next week

 

Welcome to the forum, have the same bike although a little older 2013 and the same Evotech tail tidy, which is definitely the best choice.
Don't get to ride it as much since buying the Thruxton R but still enjoy the odd blast, but mines packed away for the winter as well.
Still looks great even with 23k




and congrats on passing your test, don't want to be first to say take it easy but
Take it easy

 

Looks stunning, did you fit the evotech tail tidy?

 

I fitted it when I bought the bike in 2014, although I had to strip it down and respray it a few years ago after the ally had started to corrode inside and lift the paint in places, no doubt from stone chips and water from the back wheel, looks brand new again now though.

 

Welcome along to the forum. Many helpful folk on here and usually always someone who knows the answer to any questions you might have. Roll on spring then (or those nicer winter days). Stay safe

Nice clean bike that, I did the same thing with my one by refitting the heat shield so that it fits up to the arrow. Looks much better.

welcome in

i must be one of the few with a D3 tail tidy on mine then.
it only went out for mot this year, so will be nice to dust it off for some meets next year

 

Here she is

 

That's sooooo nice. The urban backdrop sets it off perfectly x

 

My favourite livery from the later variant, very nice indeed.

 

Matt black and silver with an arrow can. That'd be my choice too. Lovely.

 

Looks fantastic, wasn't keen on the "dark" edition when it came out compared with my crystal white, but after owning mine for nearly 7 years the matte version looks better every time I see one.
One of each would be ideal though, I'd miss polishing the paintwork too much.

 

A couple more pictures after adding some mods, looking forward to the nicer weather to enjoy the bike after buying it just as winter was about to hit.
New Mods:
EvoTech Tail Tidy
EvoTech Bobbins/Crash Protection
Triumph Black Brake Res' Front and Rear
Seat Cowl
Remove Passenger Pegs
Triumph Tank Pad

 

Looks much better with a tail tidy and no pillion pegs, and the Evotech is by far the nicest one.

 

Few more bits added, Triumph official frame sliders and LED indicators
