[@DylanHK]

My left ear enjoyed this video

[@RidingWithTom]

Apolytos I’m sorry I screwed the audio, it’s only got the left channel :(

[@DylanHK]

RidingWithTom It’s okay man, love the vids!

[@phatboi202]

i thought my stereo was fucked then... had a heart attack! :O

[@phatboi202]

loving the talking with the hands while no handing all the time... that takes pure control though :D

[@kperson]

I'm in northern hemi so hear it in right ear.

[@no-ln8wm]

you know whats fun? i started the video, no sound, looked at the comments, everyone saying "my left ear enjoyed" then i remembered... my headphone just work in the right side...

[@TheDatpussy]

Nayexx 99 try cleaning the other side, made my headphones work

[@aegg9915]

Put the right headphone over your left ear

[@EERNandhakumar]

Same bro

[@muscleandimports]

Let's keep the crashing into yellow porsches to a minimum......or rocks for that matter, too.

[@ssuperfour]

Dead meme

[@ArmoredRabbit]

Stôan It's not.

[@ssuperfour]

Each and every new video which contains or references a Daytona, a top comment will invariably be about dragging knee into a porsche. It was funny the first 100 times it was used.

[@yourmatejay]

The difference is Tom can ride......

[@ssuperfour]

A well known motovlogger makes shitty top 10 videos, he is himself a new rider, gives bad advice and talks as an authority figure. Buys a Daytona and totals it going too fast around a corner and hits a boulder Buys anoteher Daytona and totals it going too fast, crossing double yellows and into a yellow porsche (youtube search yammie noob crash) I never said i liked his videos; theyre cheap and awful, but I dislike the mindless DIWD fans more, who just spew anything their favourite youtuber says, because they say it.

[@weljo2001]

Expensive Weddings are one of the biggest mistakes you can make. Managed a photography studio and we did over 200 weddings a year. So yea i saw a lot of people making stupid decisions...

[@Bredaxe]

How do I like this comment 100x's?

[@lexian5602]

God, that 3 cylinder sounds sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. 👌

[@bencarter1666]

Seriously quick bike, especially in corners. The triumph triple has an addictive quality and the overrun with its pops and spit is magic. Good choice Tom

[@ADG2988]

Watching your videos over the years pushed me to a 2014 D675R for my third bike a few years ago. LOVE IT! Welcome to the family.

[@gutterrashrides]

One of the best sounding engines out there - love that 3 cyl growl

[@omarchakkour2081]

I love the inline-3 whistle soooo much!

[@Rikvdham]

I uses this vid to test my head phones, not the best off ideas

[@keeganhottinger92]

I'm getting it in both ears? Or am I just bad at judging hearing? Both likely I believe.

[@Rikvdham]

Keegan Hottinger defenetly only 1 ear, if i take 1 pod out its silince, and my headphones work on other sound things. Rik

[@thatsgangsta2450]

It's kinda good you were ran into, you get a bike you've been wanting for a long time AND you have a track bike now

[@harperte]

Love the Daytona, Happy to see you on one. awesome

[@VeeFour]

Litre bike for the track and a 600 for the road is the perfect combo. I plan on doing the same next spring. My 2016 R1 is being converted to a track only bike, and I'll treat myself to a Street Triple RS for the road. Cant wait!

[@RidingJapan]

of course it's everyone's own decision, but don't complain about expensive weddings.just don't do it and be done with it. I signed the paper. gave her a ring and we saved the 60000 aus$ weddings cost in Japan

[@RidingWithTom]

+Riding Japan I shouldn’t be complaining, I want a nice wedding and I’m super excited about

[@matthewdabrowski7837]

Asians love expensive weddings.

[@reerbaadia1896]

RidingWithTom I've never met a man excited about a wedding. I guess there's a 1st for everything.

[@Mr.VinceKeK]

my mrs is asian and i said im not spending a fortune and shes fine with that, Thank God hehe

[@peanutsareyum]

Great looking bike, but nothing compares to the sound of that bike.

[@DenDimas]

600 is the sweet spot and good luck for the wedding day :)

[@msmpoowwpv9322]

Ehh ada den dim

[@tommiivalo1793]

I think the Daytona is a great choice. Would love a triple when I’m older as they sound really unique .You can really spot them out at British superbike races and it’ll be amazing hearing 30 + of them in moto2 soon.

[@LiusLow]

Nice one,675r always my first choice for 600cc class.Öhlins suspension,Brembo M50 brakes,racing abs,smooth and powerful mid-torque.Reasonable price for 600cc bikes in my country.

[@TL-ds8ux]

I have a 675 non-R and love it. While I wanted an R model I got too good of a deal to turn it down plus I'm not a track guy anyway.

[@RidingJapan]

I have no idea what I am talking about but I'd take the Daytona over the cbr any day

[@stinkenderotter1593]

no more japanese av videos?=

[@SeridianPulse]

yep

[@TheAETHER22]

Having owned 2 xl 1000v varaderos in my life, i can tell you the startup sound coming from the exhaust brought tears in my eyes. This video helped decide on buying the daytona cuz of the same dinstictive sound

[@rajdhaliwal]

Superb bike choice Tom. Really enjoyed the commentary on this one. Pretty sure you'd knock it out of the park if someone regularly gave you a different bike to review. Also, did I hear two separate mentions of the 'Panigale'? ;)

[@donutius]

The daytona has always been pretty high up my 'must ride' list. Awesome

[@leonardofalcao9752]

Just got one, 3 days ago! Wow I can feel your happiness, buddy!!! Congrats from Brazil, RJ - Niterói.

[@chuchu2301]

Theres nothing wrong with going from a 1000cc to a Daytona 675. Whoever knows about this bike, will know that this is an amazing motorcycle and a lot of power/torque for a inline 3 cylinder engine. Fucking amazing on the track also! Legend of a motorcycle!

[@marcsmith3627]

Great choice Tom, I have the street triple r & the feel & sound of the Triumphs really do make you enjoy 😊 the whole riding experience. Happy days !!! ENJOY 😊

[@ArmoredRabbit]

Im excited to see this bike in your hands.

[@1sickkidd9]

You got my dream bike. Good for you man!

[@_droid]

I've always wanted one too but considering the price and reliability I just haven't been able to make the jump. They sound and look awesome though. Great road-bike with lots of low-end torque.

[@macguy9]

Daytona's a kick-ass bike. Almost bought one but ended up getting a Tiger Sport. I do miss how you can chuck around the smaller 675, but in the end for me the 1050 just has the most power, and that's what gets the juices flowing.

[@krisrudecki9477]

Dude, the looks, the sound, the way it rides, what an amazing bike. I'm considering one for the last 3 years ... the only downside is that they are really stealable :/

[@aurorajones8481]

I own a 17 Daytona R in White Cake and adore it. TD a 18 CBR1000RR and was blown away. You can NOT go wrong w/ either bike. Depending on your mission one would be better than the other but thats on you. If i could Id take the breaks off the CBR and put them on the Daytona. If you had not rode the CBR1000RR youd think the Daytona was more than enough but they are coming out w/ the 765 soon so that would help!

[@leonyoung6380]

I used to think 1000cc bikes doing 140kph in 1st gear was bs until buying one, great choice with the daytona (still a bike I want). Nice work on making the best of a bodgy situation. Good luck with the wedding burnouts (all your fans are hoping for that vid). Looking forward to this relationship with the new mistress (the 675).

[@ThunderousNorm]

Honestly why wouldn't you get one? Love that sound. Still another month to go here in Canada, enjoy the summer

[@1515acdcrocks]

At the end of the day, if your happy, that's all that matters. Happy riding!

[@spacep0d]

Tom, nice bike mate. I gave ya a shouty in my latest, barely-viewed vid. Now you have the same bike as me. It's a fantastic bike! No right channel audio in this one! :D That totally sucks about the drunk driver taking you out on your CBR! SUCKS. But dude, you're on a very special bike now. 675R Triple. :D Good luck with the wedding!

[@makarlock]

*insert obligatory non-witty comment about a the sound panning involving lonely ears here*

[@jaredneaves7007]

Your missus must be the biggest legend! I'm riding a MV Agusta F4R now but I miss my Daytona 675SE so much. You should stop comparing the triple 675 to a 4cyl 600... It's a step above 600's

[@metalheadvlogs]

I fully understand your reasons for getting a supersport over another superbike. I was looking for something new and decided on a 600 instead of a litre for pretty much the same reason - can only use a fraction of it on the road...

[@erikknudsen4034]

Really interesting comments. I have had my daytona for a year now and was thinking about swapping to a cbr1000rr for the power down low. This video is making me think twice.

[@vitaminCinoranges]

gratz agian on ya wedding .still recon you kidds shoulda eloped .Trumpies are awesome and you still got ya cbr WIN!!!!.hope to see ya at the gp again . mental high five

[@e_skie2685]

Good choice...i love mine, if I had to pick one con is the light weight with riding on the interstate as I get push around from wind buffering from cars and trucks. Good amount of mods you can do to.

[@JonnyMoto]

Can't wait to see some new stuff!!

[@dougijcw9758]

Anyone who doesn't like the 675 has never tried it, one of the most fun and rideable bikes you can buy. I urge everyone to try one and you won't be disappointed.

[@MrPninja]

When I had my 636, I loved it in the tight twisty roads, and it had no trouble keeping up with my mates litre bike, except out of corners he had the torque

[@whirinakii]

Nice ride great looking bike and the sound can't believe negative comments as long as you are riding get the grin factor happening that's all you need

[@LostCloudx4]

I wondered who the tosser was riding around my place, every time i ran out to look you had already gone haha

[@Xerdoz]

Summer coming? That is Summer already. You are riding, grass is green and the sky is clear.

[@scitzen]

I test road one of these and loved everything about the bike

[@EdD-vr4bs]

Great ocean road ride required for this beautiful machine mate!!

[@jamsxr]

I think it's mainly kids with the downgrade comments. The 675 is a stunner, wish I could have kept mine as a second bike. Never struggled keeping up with bigger bikes on the road, on track it's not so easy but it's sooo fun.

[@mrmurphypiers1241]

I’m 100% do not agree you could not use a litre bike on the road in Victoria I have Australian nationality I lived there for years there are plenty of places you could ride out for a ride with your mates in the middle of nowhere.

[@FISHinho8]

The Daytona 675R is a good choice for sure if you want a 600cc bike. I wish the exhaust was still under the seat, it looked a bit better, especially with a nice aftermarket exhaust.

[@factsmatter7004]

I just brought one as well lol. I have a liter bike but I need something that is more same for commuting. I got a '15 with nice mods like arrow slip on, triumph rear sets, and bunch of other stuffs.

[@johl88]

I sold my Daytona a little while ago and I sure do miss it. So much usable power for the streets. Out of the box there isn't much else on the market that I would want over the Daytona. In saying that I don't think I would buy another. I loved everything about it but it didn't scare me. I'm still yet to have a litre bike so I think next will be an aprilia rsv4rf. Or possibly a new 1299 depending on the new v4 motor

[@Treizez34]

I was so close to pulling the trigger on a Daytona 675r myself but as I've been riding a 2013 cbr600rr for the last 3 years it just wasn't enough of a difference to pull the trigger. It was still an awesome bike to ride though. That much better in every way over the CBR.

[@ronyoutube]

Best sound ever with full system exhaust. From Indonesia, I even know its best lol

[@aaronmachado13]

Glad to hear you enjoy your Daytona keep being an awesome Aussie

[@UnknownProdrive]

Lovely Daytona. It's funny how people are different. I actually prefer the black Blade. Maybe cuz here in the UK a Triumph doesn't quite have the cache it does over there or in the States. Plus they are alot cheaper here too.

[@ryanbibby7150]

Really want to see you on the Kawasaki zx10r! It’s amazing in every way. I have an ex hawk racing 2009 zx10 and omg it’s crazy!!! 215 bhp with zero traction control! Best thing is the wheels. It has 16.5 inch dymag wheels which means it handles like a 6 in the corners.

[@CharlieOliverBates]

Audio broke

[@rockbiterhd]

Good choice ideal bike for your insane Melbourne traffic to many speed cameras these day anyhow enjoy

[@toby7504]

Good bike..good on tracks...a friend of mine used it on Nurburgring and it was fast and nimble..strugled more on my GSXR-1000...good luck on your new bike..ride safe My wife bought me a second bike..and then she got one for her own...gooood girl...wonder why l married her...:))

[@Zealot20]

Daytona 1000r, I wonder how well that would sell. I think people would like!

[@partyplace15]

RefleX MoTo Not a liter. we got enough of those. Get more torque with a 1200 3 cylinder.

[@nobodynobody3903]

There's a 1050cc 3 cylinder from Triumph in the Speed Triple. But the Daytona is not going to be built anymore😥😥😥

[@Treizez34]

gaah the audio! Keeps coming in and out on the Right side. Love the bike, debating whether I should trade my CBR600rr for a 675r myself (tough choice, would probably be doing it just for the triple and ohlin's suspension).

[@MaxSpeedMike]

The real question is, how couldn't you buy a daytona 675R?

[@DaytonaDays]

Making me miss mine :,( certainly not a downgrade! There’s a reason people fall in love with these! May I suggest a RaceFit Growler Black Edition and a map... you will wipe the floor with an 899 ;)

[@e_skie2685]

Welcome to the club..... love mine

[@msi1985]

I love finding videos where someone quote unquote downgraded from a litre bike to a 600 yours is a perfect example... I kind of did the same my 1290 super Duke GT got written off and I ended up getting a 2016 675r !!! Dropping from 178 horsepower to 120... Yep you can feel it! But where I live in western Canada we have some excellent winding long roads that are barely enforced by traffic or police I have had the super Duke up to 299 kmph verified with GPS to 294kmph it's zero to 200kmph time is around 8.5 seconds then it takes another 10 seconds to almost break 300. I did the same test with the Daytona.. 0-200kmph was 10.8 seconds and Max I could get on the road due to length of strait stretch was a 255kmph GPS verified. I kind of felt the same waywith people saying aww man you downgraded to the Daytona.. but all of the components combined make such a beautiful bike, I really do enjoy it!

[@ausingtv]

I used to have one, awesome bike. Wish I'd kept it for the track

[@Zi9makin9]

Great to see you on a new bike! I just cant stand the front of the 675 though.... It looks old and weak. Not aggresive at all wich is a bummer

[@Sirmellowman]

yeah dude i dono how that would be called a downgrade a daytona is a freaking AMAZING bike!

[@PerHolger]

Hey man, tip on exhausts, i have a Triumph Street Triple with the SC project Conic exhuast, sounds great but don't look that great. I recommend the SC Project S1.

[@pengasus]

Oh Well, glad you r back on a bike again. As long as you enjoy the ride, cc doesn't matter. I'll stick with 1000 though. Can't afford to have 2 bikes even though I'd love to. I can't use supersport bikes without knees starting bitch and moan after 20 minutes so naked 1000s fit my bill... but again, glad to see more of your videos coming.

[@bradwalkrock1985]

Love the Daytona. Not sure about the opinion of the blade being “a whale” and being non attractive though. Imo the blade is one of the best looking bikes out there. Still love your vids sir, keep up the good work.

[@kieranmanners170]

I had a street triple R many moons ago, triples are brilliant engines, id recommend a UK exhaust called racefit, look at daytona days (dubble D) youtube hes a moto vlogger who had a daytona R wih a racefit exhaust. Very good looking bikes

[@Tditty46]

Starting to do my A1 license next week. In germany you are allowed to drive 125s with it :D. Im 16 by the way and already look forward to when Im 18 and can get my "real" bike. Have to start earning money for it though :P

[@Aiken47]

It's taking those speed humps like it's at an equestrian event , impressive!

[@LachlanGB]

Dude in front of Tom at 3:40 probably hella confused at all the gesturing and zig-zagging

[@itsbinq4967]

The 675R is one of my favourite bikes out there honestly, would replace my MT-07 with one any day

[@leo90au]

Awesome choice #RidingWithTom welcome to the 3 cylinder club!!!

[@kevinhekers2380]

That 3 cylinder sound 😍😍

[@SHO0WO0]

I love the sound of the Daytona Engine.

[@mitchp7226]

Tossing up between one of these and a 959 Panigale... So hard to choose >_

[@the_norty_rider]

still love my zx6r 636!

[@kavyarathod8447]

It's my dream bike too Have a Good and enjoy your married life Stay safe and ride safe Love and support from Mumbai India ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@pistolpete6321]

Awesome bike, congrats and enjoy!!

[@unknownfox1994]

TBH Tom, The 675R Under full throttle is really not far off a 1000cc, in power for the first 3 gears. Ive nearly put 40k on my 675R and it still hammers hard!, And with anything but a s1000rr keeps up until the 180kph then the 1000cc walk off Also the Daytona does not go out of third At marry valley training center. i manged to get a 55.8sce lap

[@Zeggawong]

Definitely feels alot slower than a 1000cc. The only 1000cc iv ridden was a 2001 R1 and that definitely felt a shitton faster. The 675 doesnt crush your insides and your brain when you whack on full throttle like a litrebike does.

[@jackbruce8324]

You need to try a old school muscle bike. Like a 1250 bandit or old gsx1100. Thats power

[@conididavide6171]

Yes man, save money for your wedding BUT hell.. get a new monster exhaust for her

[@TheZallene]

Hey mate, I'm looking at getting a daytona 675 as I'm coming off restrictions shortly.. do you reckon it's worth forking out the extra dollary-doo's for the R version? Predominately will only be doing street riding so not sure if the better suspension is worth it if not tracking the bike

[@dazeyhaze]

I've got the same bike as a trackie, check your engine bolts and use blue loctite everywhere

[@bchant19]

Hey at least the triumph sounds better and I think it's a very good choice for the road plus the gf could ride it from time to time

[@jasonarcher7775]

Dayum, your girlfriend WANTS you to buy bikes!!! She is definitely a keeper man, you are so lucky.

[@Nicoya]

I don't need to watch 13 minutes of video to know "because it's one of the finest motorcycles ever made" and probably "the 600-ish class needs more love". I'll still watch it though.

[@RidingJapan]

Nicoya shame the 600 class is dying

[@panic4000]

Riding Japan what makes you say that? I'd think they are growing after triumphs 765 engine release.

[@Nicoya]

The 600-ish bikes are getting squeezed out by liter bikes, mostly. By US MSRP, a Daytona 675 is $14k, while a GSX-R1000 is just under $15k and, unlike big superbikes of old, don't feel big and heavy in comparison. Good news for people who really want a liter bike, but not so much for people who don't want a bike that has absurdly more power than they'll ever need on open roads...

[@krishodgson243]

They may not feel big and heavy if that's what you ride, but compare them to an R6 or 675R and there's a significant difference. Here in Oz the price difference is more like $5k (before on roads, new for new) and the Daytona is much cheaper to register and insure. Add the carbon-fibre, Ohlins suspension and standard quickshifter and it's a good package. I am somewhat biased owning one however.

[@RogueMogul]

Those are great bikes. Sound amazing.

[@sushichef40]

+1 on missing my 636. Wish I just kept it

[@jeremyjohnson2852]

I want a striple for the road, and a daytona for the track. As it is I just have my daytona for everything lol. I have a first gen though, jealous of the ohlins on yours haha, weakest link of the first gens was the suspension

[@ryanwheway4334]

Love that sound!!

[@blakesanders5380]

it would be cool to have a drag race between the daytona and the cbr
