The Super “III” is both a limited series and an evolution of the Daytona, the sports car of the Triumph range. Limited edition because its release is only planned for 500 copies; and France will only be entitled to 50.
Evolution of the fact that the Super III benefits from the technological progress that the English factory has been accumulating since its rebirth. Thus, this machine accommodates deep modifications which will be generalized in the future on all the productions of Hinckley..
Cosworth, that means something to you …! Well, they are the ones who designed the new crankcases and cylinder heads for this Daytona. These elements have lost weight while gaining in rigidity. Hidden by the fairing, you will not see much of the main modifications made, such as these new foundries, the new profile of the camshafts, the changes made to the primary transmission, the starter, the ignition box….
However, this sportswoman from Brittany exudes more charisma than the standard version. And it is not by its technical sheet that will remain ignored by the neophyte biker or the average observer. In addition to its “so British” class, the Super III has something to flatter you with its silencers and carbon mudguards, its black decoration badged “SUPER III” on the rear flanks, its swingarm also dark tinted and its new six-piston brake calipers. Triumph also changed the rims for Brembo cast aluminum models, combining weight savings with increased stiffness. Here, the weight, let’s talk about it. Do you know how much the engine has become lighter with its new parts? 4.5 kilos. In total, the bike has lost 9 kg and its power in unbridled version has increased to 117 hp. But with 255 kg all full, it remains closer to the category of sportivo-gt than pure trackers. This does not matter because it is not radicality (and the flaws that are linked to it) that she is looking for. She’s a Lady, not a Ninja.
Impression confirmed on board. The driving position, slightly lying down and resting on the wrists, does not differ from the original model. By grabbing the machine, the weight is remembered to our good memory, only the time to maneuver the motorcycle; because once in balance on its wheels, the Daytona becomes homogeneous and pleasant. When driving, the Triumph is tasted like custard. It changes you from the sake of Japanese productions. The strength of the engine is its torque and roundness which is clearly different from the 4 cylinders and their power nested at the top of the tachometer. If the Daytona can not fight against the fierce sportiness of its competitors, it turns out to be much more pleasant in terms of comfort. The suspensions do a very good job which combines efficiency and lumbar preservation. Winding is always a pleasure, thanks to this damping and the character of the engine, two main assets in the behavior of this machine.
The other strong point is the respectable braking. Very dosable and without aggressiveness, the 12 piston double disc assembly proves without restraint its astonishing generosity and efficiency. With all that, it’s hard to resist the temptation of a game of arson. The bike plays with you but its weight is felt when the rhythm goes on the attack. We can not forget more than 250 kg like that…
Upon returning home, the wrists will start to sore; sacrifice to sportiness, which denotes somewhat with the general approval of this endearing and friendly sportswoman. The road will not be a problem, helped by a complacent saddle, a fairing protecting correctly, and an engine breath allowing a cruising speed more than honorable..
At more than 8 bricks, this beautiful object becomes almost a jewel. It is expensive to pay for the perfume of England, but it is also the price of originality.
