Like the R and tornado red, Still dont like the front, whats with the silver shit? Maybe the low mount will open more options for older models? And what is the line running along the rear brake line? ABS?

Yep, switchable ABS with a track setting. There's also a new engine (more power!), slipper clutch, lighter wheels and improved shocks.

Ugh.

Still not feeling the silver around the headlights and everything, but very happy with the additions from a performance standpoint.

Hostyle · 11-13-12, 08:53

I must say that on the red one I'm not liking the silver at all, but on the black and blue/white version, it's a nice addition.

Now a MotoGP style trumpet exhaust instead of this chimney and you're on to a winner in my eyes.

Rather like that white and blue one. Not a fan of the silver headlight surrounds, on the red one it makes it look like a Honda VFR!
At least the white ones hide them slightly.

Cool feature upgrades but the looks have taken a serious hit.

The fairings now look bulky and fat and no longer flow like it used to. The nose fairing is also fat and ugly... and looking at the bike from the front now makes the bike look obese. Yuck.

WTB 2012 Daytona 675R - screw the extra features.

But real talk, the more I look at it, the more I think the front might not look too bad in person but I'll reserve my judgement. I'm assuming the less sharp looking front must be for aerodynamics. The front is the only thing I don't really like (aside from the subframe...) so hopefully it'll look nice in race fairings.

The addition of the slipper clutch is awesome and I like the fender removal feature. Very nifty.

When did Kawasaki take over Triumph's design department?
