The Triumph Daytona was a sports motorcycle manufactured by Triumph from 1991 to 1998, except for 1997, when the bike was not produced. The bikes were manufactured at the Hinckley manufacturing plant in Leicestershire, England.
The Daytona machine was offered in a 749cc three-cylinder version and an 885cc four-cylinder model. The Triumph Daytona 750 was manufactured until 1993 when its engine was replaced by an 885cc three-cylinder unit with more power and torque.
In 1993, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Daytona 900 Super III, with a new engine underneath its fairing. The 885cc unit was already used by the Trident and Trophy series.
In the visual department, the bike was similar to its predecessor, packing standard features, such as a full fairing with a medium-sized windscreen, two round headlights, a single seat with small lumbar support and a passenger seat cover, lightweight aluminum wheels, and a dual exhaust system with a muffler on each side.
The 1993 Triumph Daytona 900 Super III had installed underneath its fuel tank an 885cc four-stroke liquid-cooled three-cylinder engine with three carburetors in charge, boasting 114 hp at 9,500 rpm and 87 Nm (64 lb-ft) torque at 6,500 rpm.
The bike was built around a twin-spar aluminum frame with a 43 mm adjustable telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling capabilities.
