Plonked down a nice chunk o’ cash for a new bike: a Triumph Daytona 675. Same bike favoured by at least one royal brat.
The bike is the same as my old bike actually, just a more up to date version. New brakes, better suspension, improved engine, bit more of a “glaring” look in its headlights.

It had a whole 2 kilometres on the clock. Will have to do something about that soon!
Need to fix the odometer reading though..
So I’m officially a collector with my trusty old Daytona 675 awaiting my return to Europe for some more touring.
Not sure whether I’ll keep it black however, black’s a near impossible colour to keep clean or scratch free.
Mighty fine looking bike, one day my old 900 daytona may turn into one of these, although the Speed Triple is my favourite at the moment… Good luck with the touring!
Congrats on the new bike, it’s a sweet nimble wicked fast machine! You mentioned a trip to Morocco and so I have to ask you to please tell me that you were not robbed, hustled by guides or rapped during your visit to my country. Enjoy your 675 and be safe out there!
