I don't think in all my time on BCF I've ever showed off properly one of my bikes. Thought it was about time, so got some pics in the rather nice weather today.

Bit about the bike:

2004 Triumph Daytona 600
12k miles
Beowulf Exhaust (my addition, sounds lush)
K&N
Triumph Aftermark Exhaust Map
And some of them fake Pazzos (again my addition)


Was a completely standard bike when I got it and I've not gone OTT with the mods just yet. Don't think I will and I'll go for practical ones rather than flash.

Anyway I'll let the pictures do the talking, hope you like!:

I've grown a soft spot for these. They look newer than they are and I like the yellow they do. The red looks great.

Thanks everyone above!

Haha about the last pic, I was debating about uploading it. My mum was taking them and it was the only one where I didn't look like I was going for a shit as I was looking into the sun lol.

Don't know who painted the sprocket, or if it is the original. I assume it is, but you're right, does look gash and certainly won't be replaced with another red one lol.

Might look into a tail tidy though Thumbs Up

Sure we can arrange something if you look after the BT014's of Lukes for me Wink.

But yeah mate, I'll be at the BBQ on it I reckon. It'll be restricted though, but in September that comes off so you can go on it at the BBQ or wait Wink.

What did you get out of yours speed wise?

Does your hair feel fuzzy like my old Action Mans hair used to feel?

It looks like it.

I'd be a bit careful though, because my Action Mans head fell off when you pulled it hard enough.

Yours looks stunning, must get a black can on mine Cool


Once your restriction is up then they book at 160mph, mine has seen *cough47 in pretty short order if you keep the revs above 8K Twisted Evil


The hugger will probably be cracked, they all do it where the brake line comes out so if you fancy a nice black one....

I'm thinking about it for mine....

Ooo that sounds fun. We have a nice long stretch of runway in our garden so I'll post back with the results in a few months Wink.

Believe it or not, it actually hasn't! But I took it off and put it back on when doing the rear brake so I expect it will now Laughing

Beowulf is one to consider for the exhaust, bike just runs sweet with it on.

Love the yellow too Thumbs Up

Mine must have had an issue as I saw like 150 before it started to choke, but yes...I've heard they go faster Wink

Either way, you are dead against the 750, so I guess I can hold on to that whilst I cry and scream like a girl about selling my Daytona Laughing

Is its ECU restricted?

Oo very interesting. Haha well you're an idiot paddy, you should have kept it! But will be an interesting battle if you came to Donington Wink.

None of its restricted atm, I've got the throttle stop from triumph but its a ball ache to fit properly and take out again for track days. You know of any 33 brake maps for it paddy? Because that would be rather a lot easier Smile

Fit the throttle tube from a 1050 Speed Triple, it costs £10 and will be the best £ for £ mod you will do. It has a shorter action. Something about the screen looks wrong.

I can't believe there's been nearly a whole page and no one's photoshopped a bag on his head or something.

Nice bike though, when did they stop the 600 and start the 675?

Last 600 was 04, then they did the 650...then they mashed a cylinder and did a 675 Laughing

They are a pretty big bike for a 600/650 but the same book weight (dry weight is 165Kg) as a SV650S. I love mine and I think the best thing I have done to it so far is to get the local Triumph dealer to put the race map on it, above 10K it's good fun.

How much did that set you back?

See, I uploaded a new map and its doing weird things.

What does yours sound like on the overun? Because this one, if you shut the throttle at above 5k rpm it sounds like the throttle isn't quite shut if you get me?

1050 tube is one of the next mods!
