In 1992, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Daytona 1000, a sports machine that debuted in 1991 and featured the same technical, visual, and performance specifications as the previous model.

The 1992 machine featured the same package as its predecessor, with standard features, such as a full fairing, two round headlights, a medium-sized windscreen, a one-piece dual seat with a passenger grab rail, a dual exhaust system, and three-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

Underneath its fuel tank, the 1992 Triumph Daytona 1000 had installed a 998cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with three carburetors in charge, delivering an output power of 120 hp with a peak force at 10,500 rpm and 88 Nm (65 lb-ft) torque at 8,500 rpm.

All the power produced by the engine was transferred to a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-disc clutch and a final chain drive, pushing the motorcycle to a top speed of 239 kph (149 mph).

The bike was built on a twin-spar steel frame with a 43 mm adjustable telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent suspension performance and handling.

As for the braking power, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 310 mm discs paired with four-piston calipers on the front and a 255 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear, delivering excellent stopping power.
