I'm selling my 2004 Triumph Daytona 955i. She has 20,000 miles, is black with a custom paint job, Red graphics and a British flag on the front fairing. There are a few nicks and scratches on her, but she's in good shape all around. This bike is fast as holy hell, it runs a 1/4 mile in 10.4 seconds at 133 mph and power wheelies in 2nd gear with no problem, it's rated at 147 horsepower. She has carbon fiber all around, on the rear single sided swingarm, she has a hub cover, both engine covers, front airscoop intakes, rear hugger, custom undertail, brand new tires, a gel seat, the stock seat is also included as well as the passenger seat, Triumph Carbon Fiber high mount exhaust, black custom painted windscreen, heated grips, rear seat cover and many other things that I have forgotten to mention. There is a crack on the right side of the front fairing about 1 1/2 inch squared, but after being covered by a Cubs sticker she looks fine. I'm asking $6,750 obo.
As you can see from the pictures, all the mileage came from touring the United States, and were not city miles, but long distance comfortable rides. She's a fantastic motorcycle and ordinarily I'd keep her, but I found a beautiful Ducati 998 that I just cannot pass up and the wifey says only one sportbike at a time... boo.

Saw that on CL, and it looks like a beaut'. :thumb: Sadly, I need to sell my streetfighter before I pick up another cycle.
Gorgeous Bike!!!! Lemme know how the Duc goes, I'm planning on one this summer :icon_twisted:
Ok, price dropped to $6,000 and includes the stand, new brakes, new sprocket, all that jive. I NEED THIS BIKE GONE ASAFP, she's a big step up from the GS500e/f, but not too intimidating, I know someone out there wants to jump up to a big British bike, this one's already nicely dialed in. KBB prices her at $7,000 and that's bone stock, this beauty comes with over $1500 in accessories.
Down to $5,800, SOMEONE BUY THIS BIKE!!!! WHO DOESN'T LOVE TRIPLES?!?!
$5,500 or I'm going to sell to a dealer by June 22nd, new bike for me birthday... someone grab this Buddha Loves You before you have to pay dealer taxes...
630-310-9065
$5300 if sold by tonight... Chicago residents?
too bad your so far.... humm hum humm... nice ride.
$5,000, at this price, you can buy a plane ticket and fly out to see this guy!
Took some pictures today:

I can't believe this is still for sale...
errrrr i want it
:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: I wish I had more of this $$$$$$$$$$.It would be my new pride.
Friggin British bikes are such a small market that they're almost impossible to sell. Damn Japanese bikes take up such a lion's share of the market that these well made Triples fall by the wayside. It's a damn fine bike that's quick as the dickens and loud as a banshee, she'll make a great mount for whomever buys her.
something the brits can be proud off! . i love your bike dude , id love to have it ,bit far away tho !

When I have money,I can't find an affordable Triumph.When I'm broke as hell,they're every where.
I love your bike and so wish I could buy it.But I am almost taped out.
I've decided that if she's not gone by September, I'm going to lower my deductible and either leave her in the ghetto with the keys in the ignition or take her off the end of Navy Pier at 170 mph with a deployable parachute on my back... Either way would make for some funny videos.
Lemme know where exactly in the ghetto and when so I can rent a uhaul :icon_twisted: :laugh:
I'm in St Louis ... how much lead time do i get before you report it missing ? :icon_mrgreen:
I'd hate to see this bike stolen or parted out.Just give it to me and then file a theft report.
Ok, here's the new deal. I have a $500 deductible, whoever pays me the most OVER $500, gets the bike. 48 hour lead time (I was on vacation), good luck contestants.
Anyone know of a 955i frame with title, cheap??????
Or would this just have to be a track bike................awww hell just ride it without tags and registration.....no cop could catch you.........least not until he got to the scene of the wreck :o
Ok, bike is now parked in my driveway with the keys in the ignition. PM me for the address. Just make sure it's never recovered and it's all yours. Would make a killer free trackbike. :thumb:
Ummm ... we're on a fairly public internet site lol :o
(you shoulda just PM'ed me lol :icon_twisted:)
BTT

She's not getting any slower sitting in my heated garage, although she probably is quite bored...

How about the Mustang? Got pics?
honestly i think it is the british flag that may be slowing down the sale. i don't have anything against britain it is just i don't think i would want a bike with any flag on it. it is a great bike and you have done some wonderful mods on it...i am sure it will sell. btw i know you are joking about the key thing.

it does have to original 1966 hubcaps on it now. ill get you a pic of the engine tomorrow if you want. anymore info you want on it i can get ya.
ps, i just put in a new pertronix electronic ignition today, ill tell you how it runs tomorrow, i gotta jump it cause she was down for a little while and didnt have time after the install.
Wow Matt, that's really beautiful. I'm not honestly interested in it, but I can see that you've kept great care of that car. How long have you had her?
ive had it for about 16 months. pulled her out of my great uncles ditch where she sat for abut 4 years. that still the same paint job that was on it when i got it, you cant see from the pics but its starting to bubble and crack in some spots. hopefully ill have enough $$$ this winter to get her painted and to pull the motor for a slight rebuild and painting. when i got it my dad was away in iraq flying black hawks and i sent him an email with pics and just said hey look what i got! he didnt think it was very smart for a 15 year old to try to restore a car, but hes cool with it now.
i could have sold it the day i got it home too. we pulled it off the flatbed and i got an offer for 3000$. i bought it for 1500$ so it was tempting to just make the quick 1500$ but i wanted to keep it.
That is a damn gorgeous car!!!!! :thumb:
Hey, SmartDrug, if you still have this in a few months, I will have cash in hand. I'm debating with putting a deposit on a street triple, but a 955 would definitely win out the battle for me. More power and better aerodynamics, even if it's not quite as sexy. :laugh:
No, serioiusly, give me till past the christmas season and I can have cash in hand. Hmmmm, the ride home would certainly give me time to get familiar with the bike, it's only what, 1000 miles from chicago to south ga :laugh:
btw new electronic ignition = god. she runs like a beast now

If your lucky, you might even get to know the snow and ice handling capabilities of the bike given the time of year
:laugh: :laugh: I'd just hit the throttle and fly over it al :o :cookoo:
After much ado,
SOLD, Street Triple, here I come!
