Delirio

Welcome..you from Serbia, me from Chile, anotherone from Malasia....thats globalization!!!

wow...that looks like a lot of funnn....welcome

Hi r-6 use to have the same nick in the r6 forum, when i use to have my 2006 r6 raven. Your bike is great, and as i have read, very different from the one i have. However, they are sportbikes made with a trackminded intention (IMO). You will not apreciate it in full until you try it on a track....there is were the monster wakes up! is a great bike for the track, rather than a street use. Welcome to the forum!

haven't tried it in the track yet, however, for now it feels that the "power curve" (i don't know if it is the correct expression in english), is more consistent in all ranges. Also, maybe it gains 2 or 3 hp, but for me the firts thing is more important. Last, the noise it makes is awsome, and here in chile we do not have noise regulations, so there is no problem at all if i ride in the street

Since i bought the bike (NOV. 2008) i did not have any problems, and the service in the Triumph shop work very well. For example, i change the original slip-on to a TOR one (triumph off road), and i ask for the remaping, which they do it right away, and with no cost for me. I think i'll have to wait to see if there are reliabilities issues regarding this bike. However, it is always said that english and italians bikes are not as reliable as japs ones. Will see what happends on this particular case!

Good question Cobie! It was a mix of things: First, i had a very good offer for my former bike (2006 R6), it was the moment to let her go, because in the Chilean market is not very easy to sell this kind of bikes (also it allready got more than 10.000 km). Second, Triumph just opened a shop here in Chile, so they started with a special price on all the bike, so the daytona was very cheap in comparison to the japs 4's. Third, i tryed the 675 before I bought it, and it blows mi mind...strong, good low and mid range torque, great breaks, and it was a lot "slimer" than the `jap 4's, cos its 3's, which suited very good on me. And fourth, there are houndreds of japs arround here, but few Daytonas, so the "cool" factor also kick in! I`m very pleased with the change, the bike is great, specially for the track, im riding almost the same laptimes than my budies in R1, GSXR 1000 and 750, ZX-1000R, and in some cases even faster.

Me and my 675

Started a topic in the student quiestion part and i just realized that i did not introduce myself properly...shame on me! Well, my name is Francisco, i´'m from Chile, 35 years old, lawyer (i know...thats not a thing to be proud of...but anyway...), mi current ride is a 2008 Triumph Daytona 675, with a TOR Exhaust and map, sliders and pazzo levers. I love this bike, the torque on the low-mid range is awsome, great for the track. Before that bike i had a 2006 R6...a mean machine..very exiciting bike, but with the cirtiques that you probably know...between those two, my choice is -by far- the 675. I tried to posty a pic of me and the 675 but -again- the toolbar did not work for me! See you arround on this great forum....and hopefully on a 2day school in VEGAS in Oct/nov 2009!

Thanks for all the information, it is very usefull. Now i'm just waitng for may 2008 bonus, and i will start with the payments, flight ticketes, hotels, etc... I'll keep in touch to let you know how this adventure is developing.... Quite a trip....form Chile to Vegas...maybe i will be the most "far away" student!!! Off topic: by the way, i can't use the toolbar, i tried to post a photo but none of the functions in the toolbar works...it's me or my PC?

Thanks Stuman for the info! I checked the track, and it looks nice!..cant`wait to be there. I think my English level is OK por the purpoise of the school; i lived in england for a year, studing. Mi weakness in in the writen part! So, as soon as i can, i will start arrainging the trip and i will pay the deposit. Also, i forgot to ask about the gear. I have a Shoei helmet, Alpinestars one piece suit and boots. That will be ok for the school?

Hi, My name is Francisco, and i`m from Chile, so first my apologies for the splelling mistakes, english is not my native language. I want to anttend the 2-day school in Las Vegas Motor Speedway, on Oct 31 and Nov 1, 2009. As i will have to travel a lot (about 20 hrs by plane), i want to be sure about some things: 1.- Do you admit foreing students (i understand english and have riding experience) 2.- Do yo recommend acomodation in Vegas, because i will travell with mi wife so i want to stay near the Strip, for her not to be too bored!!!! 3.- Track layout? The School is on the Oval? 4.- Still have the 2007 Kawas? Thanks!
