Triumph has confirmed key updates to the Daytona 660 for 2026, adding adjustable Showa front forks, an up/down quickshifter as standard equipment, and Metzeler M9RR Supersport rubber across both LAMS and full-power variants. Both are available from Triumph dealers now from $15,500 rideaway.
The upgrades build on the Daytona 660’s racing program, which has accumulated championship results in Italy’s CIV Sportbike class, Germany’s IDM Sportbike class, and the UK’s Pirelli National Sportbike Championship since the model’s 2024 debut. For 2026, the Daytona will also contest the new World Sportbike Championship via PHR Performance and CM Triumph Factory Racing.
The new Showa 41mm upside-down big piston Separate Function Forks are adjustable for compression and rebound damping, a specification uncommon in the middleweight class. Rear suspension is handled by a Showa unit with preload adjustment.
Triumph Shift Assist, previously an optional extra, is now standard equipment, enabling clutchless up and downshifts. The Metzeler M9RR Supersport tyre replaces the previous fitment on both variants. A new clear-anodised aluminium brake pedal rounds out the specification changes.
The 660cc triple engine carries over unchanged. Full power output is 70kW at 11,250rpm and 69Nm at 8250rpm, with a 12,650rpm redline. The LAMS variant produces 42kW at 6750rpm and 62Nm at 6250rpm.
Both variants run three riding modes (Sport, Road and Rain), switchable traction control, a slip-and-assist clutch, ride-by-wire throttle, a colour TFT instrument display, and full LED lighting. Seat height is 810mm, with an optional 785mm low seat available as an accessory.
Three colour schemes are offered for 2026: Sapphire Black (standard), Aluminium Silver and Sapphire Black, and Cosmic Yellow and Sapphire Black. All feature Diablo Red accents. Service intervals remain at 10,000 miles, and the bike is covered by a two-year unlimited-mileage warranty.
The 2026 Triumph Daytona 660 in LAMS and full-power variants is available from Triumph dealers now from $15,500 rideaway.
