"Biking News & Rumours"

If you manage to get a bike to overheat over here in the UK the bike must be buggered.

Either get better coolant or just turn the bike off when sat at lights.

Hi there,

I'm new to motorcycles and am looking to buy my first bike. I'm looking at a 2005/06 model Triumph Daytona 600, the only thing which really concerns me about these are I've heard they are particularly prone to overheating quickly (more quickly than is usual for sports bikes) at lights and in traffic during summer or just going through traffic.

I would be really happy if anyone can shed some light on this topic regarding their experience with these bikes either way, or know anyone who has.

Thanks.


No they aren't

That's because you live in a land of ice and snow Laughing
Anyway, No and I've tried with it sitting in queues on very hot days (for here) 2up and full of luggage, till I got bored at least and decided to see if I would live or die.

You're in the wrong section.

And no they don't overheat any more than any other bike.

Poorly maintained?

'05-'06? Wouldn't that be the Daytona 650? Thought the 600's were made until 2004? (TT600)

lots of triumphs run hot, best keep the coolant at the minimum mark instead topping it up as they back-fill and will overflow

later models have larger catch tanks, (new shape 675) so can be topped up
