Triumph Motorcycles Speed Four Motorcycle

Monday, February 14th

A sporty, middleweight motorcycle has to perform in many environments - from racetrack to city street and winding back road, perhaps in one day. And the Speed Four has been built not just to perform.

But to amaze.

Its lineage is pure supersports but with a twist - an X-factor - all of its own. The Speed Four's howling 599cc, four-cylinder, fuel-injected engine gives instant, thrilling power all the way to the redline and its taut, race-spec chassis and high quality, fully adjustable suspension connects the rider intuitively to the road flashing beneath.

The naked, bare-boned style of the Speed Four marks its individuality, unique character and eagerness to stand well clear of the workaday, homogenous masses. It's a statement of attitude mixed with a shot of pure adrenaline. And fittingly the Speed Four is not merely ridden; it's worn as an extension of the soul.

Triumph Daytona 955i Motorcycle

The Daytona 955i has proved, over the years and miles, that balance is everything. With large amounts of horsepower comes the need for finesse. And while achieving true balance for a sports machine is no easy task, the Daytona 955i excels because it's been designed, from its inception, as a real world performance motorcycle.

And performance is intrinsic to the Daytona 955i's appeal. Its fuel-injected, three-cylinder engine packs a heavyweight 147bhp punch, which the benchmark chassis - that includes aluminium frame, fully adjustable suspension and powerful four-piston front brake calipers - intuitively contains.

Sleek lines add real class and a touch of 'GT' style to the Daytona 955i's multi-faceted persona, while its sophisticated ergonomics make for all day riding comfort. Beautifully blending raucous, triple-cylinder brawn with scalpel-like handling ability, the Daytona 955i is an intoxicating mix. It's the light with the shade, the rough with the smooth, the sugar and the spice. It's all of these things, and more.

The Daytona 955i is a unique propostion. It matches power to control and serves up a hugely satisfying riding experience in the process. Now that's what you call balance.
