  1. I think that many owners are happy with their V11s and can't see anything else they would rather have. I know Helen loves her V11 Sport and would be happy to ride it forever.

     

    When I have sold my Triumph I will be in the market for a reasonably priced Ohlins shod V11 if anyone knows of one for sale. Don't mind if its tatty or thrashed because it is for a project.

     

    Cheers

    would that project by any chance be a Ghezzi brian Sport Monza????

  2. I have a Daytona and my wife has a V11.

    The Daytona is a five speed and the V11 has six. The Daytona has a more relaxed, long-legged feel (taller gearing) as well as feeling a little more raw and unrefined. I call it a hot-rod tractor feel.

    The V11 is a better bike from a technical perspective but I do love the Daytona. It has a lot of character. The Daytona is too uncomfortable for me stock, however. I modified mine to run handlebars and a V11 seat.

     

     

    Thanks. Very useful. Of course the Daytona could be considered a litte more "exotic" too. Would you consider touring on it?

  3. I currently have a V7 which is fun for scratching around the back roads or popping into town for a coffee. But I fancy something with longer legs and a fairing so I can go over to the continent and other such rides. I know the Daytona is a race rep and fairly aggressive but I'm sure I could do miles on it but I'm also quite partial to a nicely turned out V11 Le Mans. I was wondering, does anyone have experience of riding both these bikes? and if so care to share your views?
