After rising from the ashes of insolvency in the early 1990s, Triumph’s first goal was to create a line of profitable motorcycles that didn’t try to beat the Japanese at their own game. Instead, they built a modular range of bikes that provided a less frantic, higher quality experience, with a more road-focused feel. The original Daytona came in both 900cc triple and 1200cc four flavors, but the heavily-revised and confusingly-named T595i that followed was powered by a 955cc triple and featured an all-new frame. The 1999 Triumph Daytona T955i was slightly revised and renamed to match the displacement, and put a claimed 128hp to the rear wheel through a six-speed gearbox. The bike was flexible, with a fat midrange that made it feel as fast over the road as lighter, more finely-honed, more powerful Japanese competitors.

All original one owner bike

Recently fully serviced at triumph also brand new tires and battery were also installed at dealer

The engine size is 955cc and the exterior color is a stunning gold/yellow. This bike is a great find for any motorcycle enthusiast looking for a classic ride. Low kilometers has only 3645 kms. In mint condition bike has no problems fully serviced at triumph dealer. Runs great with no problems. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to own this iconic machine.

When new, the Daytona 955i wasn’t a world-beater, but was definitely in the hunt: it was fast, handled well, had reasonable ergonomics, and tons of character. I think it’s a great-looking bike too and, at under $5,000, represents a huge performance bargain. This example is obviously north of the border in Canada, but is probably worth the trip: miles… ahem, kilometers are low, the bike is claimed to have had a recent service, and is such a vivid shade of yellow that only the most engrossed-in-their-cellphone drivers could possibly miss you!
