Quick Read:
Now 11,000 more expensive than before
Gets new tyres and adjustable front suspension
Engine remains unchanged
Triumph has updated its middleweight supersport for 2026, and the revised Daytona 660 has now arrived in India. Priced at Rs 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), the new model costs Rs 11,000 more than the motorcycle it replaces.
While the price increase is relatively small, Triumph has added a handful of hardware and equipment upgrades to make the Daytona 660 more focused than before.

The 2026 Daytona 660 retains its Showa upside-down fork, but there is considerably more scope for adjustment now. The front suspension gains compression and rebound damping adjustability, allowing riders to fine-tune the setup depending on their riding style and conditions. Suspension travel remains unchanged at 110mm.
At the rear, Triumph has left the monoshock untouched. It continues with 130mm of travel and preload adjustment. So, while the front end gets a useful upgrade, there are no changes to the rear suspension.

Another notable addition is Triumph's bidirectional quickshifter. On the previous Daytona 660, the quickshifter was available as an optional extra. For 2026, it is included as standard equipment, allowing clutchless upshifts and downshifts straight out of the showroom. This should make the Daytona 660 feel more engaging when ridden hard, particularly on twisty roads.
Triumph has also switched the Daytona 660's tyre setup. The 2025 motorcycle used Michelin Power 6 tyres, while the updated model rides on Metzeler M9RR rubber.
The M9RR is positioned as a sporty road tyre, and the change should complement the Daytona's sharper character. Combined with the adjustable front fork, the new tyre setup could make the 660 feel more composed when pushing through twisties.

The visual changes are limited to new paint schemes, with Triumph offering the 2026 Daytona 660 in three options:
Aluminium Silver with Sapphire Black graphics
Cosmic Yellow with Sapphire Black highlights
Sapphire Black
The Cosmic Yellow colourway is our pick, thanks to its bright finish and contrasting black graphics that give the Daytona 660 a more distinctive appearance.

There are no changes to the engine or chassis. The Daytona 660 continues to use Triumph's 660cc, inline three-cylinder motor, developing 95 PS and 68 Nm.
The engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox, while the motorcycle continues to use a steel perimeter frame and twin front discs with radial brake callipers.

At just Rs 11,000 more than the outgoing model, the updated Daytona 660 now packs more hardware and features for the money. In fact, considering everything that has been added, the 2026 Daytona 660 is arguably an even more value-for-money motorcycle than before. It continues to offer a potent triple-cylinder engine and sporty character, while the upgrades should make it more capable and enjoyable to ride.
