This month we have the new Triumph 675 Daytona on test and first impressions are that it is a pretty special bike!
I collected it and took it straight to Kyalami to put it through its paces. Slightly on edge since Arnold from KMSA said, as I left “Just don’t crash it”.
As any track rider will tell you, that’s the worst thing anyone can ever say to you.
Still, I made it home in one piece and the bike still intact. A good track day is one when you go faster than the time before. A great track day is one when you can still use the bike the next day!
