Every Triumph-related forum should have at least one obligatory 'Big Daytona Speculation' thread contemplating what the next big Daytona will be like so here it is!
The latest Cycle World says the team who helped design the 07 1050 Tiger is the same crew who were working on the 'Busa Killer' project... Could Triumph possibly have some terribly evil monster sitting in Hinkley just waiting to be unleashed in a few years? Perhaps a big bore version of the 675, say a 1350? Imagine having that much more displacement on the existing S3, except with a Daytona cam profile and Devious' tuning... I'd bet it'd easily get over 100ft lbs at the rear wheel and 160+rwhp with mild tuning.
Then, they could have a 1050 as their main litre sport bike by doing some racy tuning to the existing S3 motor.
