“Triumph Daytona 1200...Still got it...2012”

written by on 13/09/2012

2011 I spent UK1200 pounds on a 50,000 mile, 1995 Daytona 1200. After small trips for 1st year I travelled on it for 2 months From England to France, Spain, Italy, Czech, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania and back through Germany, Holland, Belgium. A total of 7,500 miles. Quite comfortable, perfect on the motorways, cruises at 120mph with lots of low end power/torque, fun on the bends and hills and a great conversation starter at the side of the road.

Problems arose with the immobiliser and the Battery, both just worn out and were removed/replaced en-route.

For the price you get a real bargain and she handles the Eastern European roads (patch upon patch and pot holes) with ease. Used fabric bags for touring, unable to find any hard cases for security but I rarely left the bike unnatended, and if I did just leave it in a town by a coffee-shop.

Awesome bike for the price. Now approaching 65000 miles I am hearing problems with valves and it might be time for a new Head, I don't know the previous owners neglected the valve clearances but its been shimmed twice in the last year.

I think I will spend a little money and have it done because I like the bike so much!
