2008 Daytona 675 Updates
- New bolder decal on side farings
- Gold, anodized top nut
- Improved headlight design for increased performance
- Two new colors for 2008, Neon Blue and Jet Black
The 675cc, liquid cooled 3-cylinder engine is very compact and is rated at 123 hp at 12,500 rpm with 53 ft. lbs. of torque at 11,750 rpm. The standard 3 into 1 underseat exhaust uses a secondary valve to boost low-end torque. With the close ratio six speed transmission riding at a casual or spirited pace should be enjoyable. The Nissin 4 piston radial calipers and 308mm dual disks up front, single piston and 220mm disc in the rear should be a balanced match for the powerful Daytona 675.
The Daytona 675 has a listed dry weight of 363 lbs. With a wheelbase of 54.9 inches and rake at 23.9 degrees and trail of 3.6 inches, handling should be very sharp.
