2020 Triumph Daytona 765 Moto2 Review | Daily Rider

[@RevZilla]

Read Zack’s first-ride article here: rvz.la/2IBCsBq

[@MMPAspergerian]

Triumph's specs on this bike is way off. The seat height is more like 34" which doesn't matter Zack because you're vertically gifted being over 6 feet. Triumph states 36X lbs wet, LIARS! You measured 414. Although I will share, she feels more lithe than my 2019 R3 @ 368 wet. I own #209. The MPG sucks, 28. But then again, who buys a sportbike for gas mileage? In my 20+ years of riding and owning several bikes, every time I go on a ride with her, it reminds me of what a $20K bike should be. How tight everything is and how perfect the parts come into harmony with each other, ASTONISHING!!! It's perfection. The Ohlins suspension makes all the bumps on the road disappear. One finger stopping power...CHECK! Last, but not least, that 765 engine. Character for days! The sound is unlike any and when the power hits in first, there goes the front, pointed at the moon. It's a small price to pay for preciseness, veracity, and delicacy. So, what you waiting for? Get it!!!

As an owner of one of these Daytona 765 Moto 2's who does actually daily ride this bike, I think you've absolutely nailed the review! Pretty much spot on with all your comments (the good and bad) and aligns very closely with my personal experience of the bike. Thanks for making this video!

[@stevesas632]

I'm still thinking a standard 2013 onwards Daytona would be just as good on the road, without the expense or worry about it. Am I wrong?

[@KrustyCream]

@@stevesas632 Finding a low mileage 13'-on 657R for less than $9K in my area is a challenge. Moto2s with break-in mileage are available for LESS than a Street Triple RS new. I own a Moto2 currently. I've owned early 675 R's and it's an addicting analog experience that's hard to replace. The Moto2 is so refined (for better and worse). The Pros: The quick shifter is bi-directional and the best out of any modern sportbike. The electronics are quite good even without an IMU. Every component is slightly better and modernized over the 675Rs including a fat midrange for power. Cons: Nothing beats an analog throttle cable IMO. Prices for "track spec" 675s are pretty hard to beat. OH YEAH, the 24' Street Triple RS that's coming out Spring of this year is a fresh redesign, has 128HP to match the Moto2, an IMU, Stylema Calipers, and Triumph lowered the price... something to think about.

[@joeericestrada3175]

@@KrustyCream I'm looking at a moto2 that hasn't sold to be my next daily rider. Looks like the price is the only thing really stopping people from buying these? I'm currently torn between the gsxr 750 and the moto2 765.

[@sanj5026]

Hmm I sat on a supersport coming from a cruiser.. It was sooooo different. My feet weren't even flat footing... Are SuperSports that exhilarating once you get used to it?

[@SuperBigshot99]

Guy sounds like back wood's army base commanders

[@clayman1980]

@@sanj5026 I would say so, although it definitely depends on how much kick you get out of just riding that particular bike. I have an RSV4 Factory, which I'm sure is, ergonomically speaking, very much the same as the Daytona and although it most definitely doesn't lend itself well to touring, it's still so much fun in the twisties with good surface. But short weekend rides is all I do on it and I bought it with that idea in mind.

[@vsteel]

There is nothing better than the sound of a triple motor. The fact you can putt around town or bounce off the rev limiter and the motor is happy at either extreme is magic.

[@privateparty4900]

"Fueling" is to motorcycles as "Tone" is to Guitars. Every time I hear someone discuss "fueling" I assume they are actually talking about a fuel map and AFR and then I realize that, no... we're just generally talking about what occurs when you apply throttle.

[@barnsnoble7066]

I personally prefer the buttery fueling of a 1969 CB750. You can really tell the difference between a vintage bike and a modern bike. Same goes with aluminum vs steel frame bikes. Some people think fueling metal isn't real, but let me tell you man, it makes a difference.

[@xavlamela9055]

Hahaha that's spot on ! A good fueling is defined only by a good AFR, and on the road bike I know from experience they never come with good ratios... What he may like is the throttle response that may be really good on such a high caliber of a bike :)

[@mathias6423]

Looking forward to Daily Rider with the Aprilia RS 660

[@TreyyDaMenaceFan]

Unpopular opinion but thats gonna be a dry one

[@brentbartley6838]

@@TreyyDaMenaceFan Yes, unpopular opinion if you've seen MCN or 44 teeth's first impression videos, or if you've seen and/or heard the RS660 (270 degree crank parallel twins sound tasty and Aprilia exhausts usually toe the line on legality), really they cheat because pretty much all emissions tests are done with the bikes in neutral so Aprilia puts a valve in the exhaust that opens up when the bikes are in gear.

[@devideomeneer]

Im confident that is a great bike for Daily riding.

[@beetleything1864]

@@brentbartley6838 no valve in the 660's exhaust.......

[@mrbookends]

My 2008 675 was my all time favorite bike. 800 mile days (brutal), track days (super fun), canyon carving (the most fun)...... Sold it a long while ago but I still judge other sport bikes on that! That all being said, I've got my eye on a RSV4 1100 because I'm at the point in my life where I can have different bikes for different uses!

Man I'm slowly working my way through each daily rider episode starting from the beginning. I don't want them to enddddddd! Zach your the best for these, love your attitude, opinions, skillzzz and giggles

I'd still take the supermoto over the sportbikes for daily riding. Easier to see, upright, easy to throw on a work bag if commuting. No contest, for me anyway :) Loved the video, great work as always!

[@bng2679]

Last thing I want to bring to a track day is a exclusive bike. The cost and the time for repair if anything happens is going to be massive. This is why I am not buying this bike even though I like it a lot. Why couldn’t Triumph just make a normal Daytona 765r?

[@aaronkelley6335]

Was thinking this the whole time watching... Who would buy this? I wouldn't want to track it and it's clearly not at all designed for the street.

[@lowcountryrob170]

That’s a beautiful bike. “Looks at checking account.” Damn it. I’ll have to settle for riding vicariously through the video.

[@jordanz99]

I just recently upgraded from a Ninja 300 to a 2014 Triumph Daytona 675 and I love the bike. It is very responsive and the linear power band of the inline triple engine is awesome. The riding position is a bit hard to bear on longer rides, so far I've only been on it for 2 hours at the most. I normally do a 600km (6-7 hour ride) motorcycle trip in the summer to the Ottawa Valley and I'll have to see if I can bear it on the Daytona. I'm now thinking for my next bike I want to get the Triumph Street Triple especially for touring in mind.

[@TreyyDaMenaceFan]

Wanna trade the daytona for my striple? 🤣

[@roughsponge]

Stick with the Daytona, loosen up your riding stye and move around more on the bike (take short breaks now and again) They are not as uncomfortable as people say. You will not get a better feeling for the road on a striple and the Daytona is better engineered. I've over 30 years of riding experience and my biggest regret was selling my D675 and buying an MT-09 to be "comfy"

[@adamedunn]

I think a major factor that should go into how good of a daily rider a bike is, is how much fun it makes the daily ride

[@TripleThreatTriplett]

Would love to see you do the Svartpilen 401 or 701!

Own 514. Got her with 2 miles on the odometer. Such a beautiful ride.

[@TheLiddleBigChannel]

Similar to the Speed and Street Triples, this bike after its umpteenth iteration must be near perfect. Most bike /cars are redesigned long before they are perfected!

[@gerardmontgomery280]

People complained that they didn't change the styling and it looks dated. Dated like the Mona Lisa if you ask me. I'll take an older looking sport bike over the current crop of sports bikes. I'm not a fan of super shrink wrapped bikes. Unless you're offering the new MV Agusta F4, because that thing is pornography. That said the airbox scream of a Daytona is second to none.

[@speedybobblehead9382]

I don’t get the complaints about the look, I have two Daytona’s including the 765 because they are Daytona’s, if you love the brand and style why would you want it to look like an R6 or GSX ect, 🤷‍♀️,

Loved the video and the entire series so far! Although I wonder if the Daytona 765 Moto2's limited production should've counted against it on the cheap/expensive axis? On paper it may be the same as the africa twin, but that is only true for the 765 lucky customers.

Comparing to an MT-07 is a little strange since that’s a different class of bike. I don’t think someone is picking between those two. Daytona vs R7 is another story

Def not something that people think of as a daily rider. Not what I was expecting from the series, it's gone away from the intention, I think, and now it's just showing off bikes. Said it at the beginning, the first bike was absolutely the best bike, nothing has dethroned the Versys. But if we're just showing off bikes, my request is to see the Yamaha Niken on the DR board.

I dont often disagree with Zack, but I think the KTM supermoto is way better daily driver. Daily riders have to deal with bad roads regularly, and being up higher helps to see over and through traffic. But I can't see any sport bike being a good daily rider. Maybe that just says more about me.
