TRIUMPH Daytona 955i (2002-2003) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Triumph Daytona 995 was a sports motorcycle manufactured by Triumph from 1997 to 2006. The bike was released in 1997 as the Daytona T595, and due to misunderstandings about the name not revealing the engine capacity, the bike was renamed in 1999 as Daytona 995i.

In 2002, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Daytona 995i, a sports motorcycle that was significantly revised in 2001. The 2003 model received a new Acidic Yellow color, joining the famous Caspian Blue and Aluminum Silver.

In addition, the machine was available with many accessories, including an aftermarket silencer in a carbon or stainless steel finish, a tank bag, sports throw-over panniers, an alarm, an Aero windscreen, carbon fiber side panels, a front mudguard extension kit, and much more.

The bike had standard features in the visual department, such as a full fairing with a medium-sized windscreen, a single seat with lumbar support, a passenger seat cover, a single exhaust system, a single-sided swingarm, and three-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

Underneath its full fairing, the 2002 Triumph Daytona 955i had its heartbeat set by a 955cc four-stroke three-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a fuel injection system feeding the pistons, delivering 149 hp at 10,700 rpm and 100 Nm (74 lb-ft) torque at 8,200 rpm.

The engine power was handled by a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-plate clutch and a final X-ring chain drive that spun the rear wheel to a top speed of 263 kph (164 mph).
