Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits an intermediate to experienced rider who is comfortable with strong midrange torque and a triple-cylinder engine that pulls hard from low revs.
PurposeBuilt primarily as a sport tourer with genuine sport bike performance, it excels at fast road riding and spirited cornering rather than pure track weapon duty.
Rider FitA moderate seat height and manageable dry weight make it accessible to riders of average build, though the sporty riding position still demands some wrist and back tolerance.
CharacterThe in-line triple gives it a distinctive growling character with a broad spread of usable power, blending sport bike urgency with a slightly more relaxed, torquey delivery than a four-cylinder rival.
Not Ideal ForIt is not a good fit for off-road use or for riders seeking an upright, low-effort commuting or long-distance touring experience.

2000 Triumph Daytona 955 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2000 Triumph Daytona 955, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
