ALL NEW DAYTONA 675 SE
ONLY 765 EXAMPLES EACH HEMISHPERE

LIMITED PRODUCTION


.....

its a last gen 675R with the motor and electronics from a new Street triple RS.

thats such a let down.

On the bright side, this means I can buy a new STRS and make it a Daytona myself. helloooooo cheap insurance

We'll see. That hp number is more than likely conservative.

I mean, with the simplicity of making one yourself, i can dam near bet my current bike on there being a ‘production’ model in a year or two TOPS

“Simplicity of making one yourself" famous last words. Aint nothing sinple about a motor swap like that.

who said anything about a motorswap?

take a street 765RS, ad the front intake, subframe and shit from the old daytona and boom.

also, the frames ARE the same from the 765 to the 675. so the main challenge will be the ECU...which is pretty much just source a STRS one.
