The Triumph Daytona was a sports motorcycle made by Triumph Motorcycles Ltd at the Hinckley factory in Leicestershire, England. The bike was part of the Daytona series that comprised several machines made from 1991 to 1998 with different engine displacements.

The 1990 Cologne Motorcycle Show presented the Daytona model in four configurations: 750cc and 900cc with a three-cylinder engine, 1,000cc and 1,200cc with a four-cylinder unit.

In 1993, the 750cc engine was replaced with an 885cc three-cylinder unit already running on the Trident and Trophy series. The Daytona range used a modular liquid-cooled DOHC engine strapped in a high-tensile tubular steel frame.

In 1996, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Daytona 900 Super III, a sports machine in its fourth production year, packing the same performance, technical, and visual specifications as previous models, without any modifications whatsoever.

The bike packed a full fairing with two round headlights, a medium-sized windscreen, a single seat with lumbar support, a passenger seat cover, a dual exhaust system with a muffler on each side, and three-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

The 1996 Triumph Daytona 900 Super III had installed underneath its dress an 885cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with three Mikuni carburetors in charge, delivering 114 hp at 9,500 rpm and 87 Nm (64 lb-ft) torque with maximum strength at 6,500 rpm.
