Revealed: The Triumph Daytona 1050R

OK so the eagle eyed among you have already worked out this isn’t an official release that Triumph have managed to keep top secret.

It’s actually a one off special built by the same people who created the 400mph Castrol Rocket streamliner.

The bike buying public have been begging Triumph to build a litre class sportsbike for yonks but the guys at Hinckley have yet to bow to the pressure.

The bike below started life as a 1050 Speed Triple R which has been cleverly disguised in Daytona 675R plastics.

It fooled us too.
