I bought the Daytona...I like my triples what can I say. The little bastard is faster then my Speedie from what I can tell so far, and I haven't let it spin yet.

I'm honda guy all the way but a 675 is better on the track and street. Lighter a little more cramped commuting but as a track bike it has more low end if you miss shift and just in general, plus it looks better, sounds better and the reliability isn't near an issue just like ducatis.

I will get a 675 next if I can swing it. I'll stick with the F4 for a few month more to get a 675 I like it that much more.

Plus paiin is weakness leaving the body, embrace the agony!!!!

what about the difference in width? the triumph looks and feels so much thinner than any other in he 600 class. how much of a difference does that really make on the road or track?

The Triumph is quite a bit more narrow than the 600RR...but that doesn't make that much of a difference. It's all in your comfort and riding style. I'm 6'5'' and I felt plenty comfortable on the 675 and the 600RR both.

I can't speak for the road...don't have enough experience on those bikes there.

The triumph is thinner because it has one less cylinder.....and THEN they wrapped the frame over the top of the motor vice the conventional around the side design.

Its really of little consequence at street speeds, but this little bike LOVES to be haung off of. Its the easiest bike to monky around on the I have ever ridden.

I will put down a nickel that says that you will not be able to out-ride either bike's potential. After that, it comes down to personal preference, which, by the very essence of itself prevents you from being able to find it on a forum. Go sit on each bike and see which one gets you emotional.
