The new 2012 Triumph Daytona 675 has been released and while at this stage, these are the only pics we’ve got, we can bring you the few technical updates this model presents.
After the spy pics recently, we had expected a complete overhaul of the new Daytona 675 but it looks more like a basic restyling.
New colours are on offer: the Daytona 675 now comes in Phantom Black and Diablo Red with sports Triumph logo on the tank and Daytona and 675 decals.
Under the fairing we get blacked-out parts already seen on the 675R.
Other black tinted components feature on the footpegs, handlebars, and around the tail area.
New details have been included on some of the engine components, including on the carter.
The engine itself is the same three-cylinder 675cc, 12-valve unit with 125 hp and 72 Nm of torque.
That means the 2012 Daytona 675 will still get that triple, raucous sound.
More technical components include the upside-down 41mm fork, adjustable rear shock to adapt to riding styles and road or track conditions, Nissin front radial disc brakes and five-spoke alloy wheels.
Standard tyres available are a Pirelli Supercorsa SP set for a racing ride and to complement the lightweight Triumph.

The 2012 Daytona should cost the same as the current model, about €11,990.
