    Hello Forum

    Proud new owner of an '07 Daytona 675. Hoping to ride her on the street as well as the track.

    Doing my best to bring the bike back after the original owner let it sit in the garage for nearly 10 (yes 10) years.

    I'm Houston as well. In the southern part of town.

    For those who wanted pix here's how she looked when I first got her home.

    Cool. I’m near the medical center area inside 610 loop. Nice motorcycle!

    Thanks for the words of welcome everyone. Y'know there are a couple of other forums out there for 675s but they are only hanging on by a thread, very little activity. I'm glad to know there's plenty of active Triumph owners out there with bike knowledge.

    Welcome to the forum. I love the daytona 675's! Had 2 of them and even managed not to crash one of them :)

    I’ve always liked the Daytona 675. I bit too much of a bike for my limited experience. Still, if I was more capable and had spare resources I’d be looking for one! LoL. Looking forward to seeing what you do with yours!

    A bit belated but welcome to the forum, @kiloechoxray! Enjoy that new-to-you Daytona. And as others have said, please continue to post photos as you make changes to it along the way.
