Triumph's ground-breaking Daytona 675 has not only received global recognition for its
performance on the road, but also for its outstanding ability on the race track. To further
support this exceptional track ability, Triumph have launched a Racing Support Programme,
which is now further complemented by the launch of a range of Triumph Genuine Race Parts.
Factory developed in collaboration with Paul Young Racing, these parts have been designed
to give significant improvements in engine performance for race purposes. This results in
the class-leading Daytona 675 being competitive on the racetrack at the highest level.
Triumph Genuine Race Parts are sold individually and a number of the parts need to be used
in conjunction with each other to ensure the best performance gains are realised and also
to prevent premature wear on associated components. Please ensure you read the user
manual in full to understand this detail prior to fitting or using any of the Triumph Genuine
Race Parts.

• The information provided in this publication should always be used together with the
official Triumph Daytona 675 service manual.
• A standard Triumph Daytona 675 motorcycle fitted with the Race Kits detailed in this
publication will fully comply with the current FIM Supersport regulations.
• Completely read all the instructions before commencing the installation and set up of
the race kit in order to become thoroughly familiar with the kits features and the
installation process.
• When removing components which incorporate a gasket ALWAYS ensure a new gasket
is fitted on re-assembly.
Warnings, Cautions and Notes.
Throughout this publication particularly important information is presented in the following
form:
Warning
This warning symbol identifies special instructions or procedures, which if not correctly
followed could result in personal injury, or loss of life.
Caution
This caution symbol identifies special instructions or procedures, which if not strictly
observed, could result in damage to, or destruction of, equipment.
NOTE
• This note symbol indicates points of particular interest for more efficient and
convenient operation.
These accessory kits are for racing only. They are for use solely during closed course
racing. A motorcycle fitted with these kits must not be used on public roads. It is illegal to
use a motorcycle fitted with these kits on public roads. A motorcycle fitted with these kits
does not comply with local laws and regulations. If you use a motorcycle fitted with these
kits on public roads, you may be prosecuted.
Warning
These accessory kits are designed for use on Triumph Daytona 675 motorcycles only and
should not be fitted to any other Triumph model or to any other manufacturer’s
motorcycle. Fitting these accessory kits to any other Triumph model, or to any other
manufacturer’s motorcycle, will affect the performance, stability and handling of the
motorcycle. This may affect the riders ability to control the motorcycle and could cause an
accident.
Warning
Always have Triumph approved parts, accessories and conversions fitted by a trained
technician of an authorised Triumph dealer. The fitment of parts, accessories and
conversions by a technician who is not of an authorised Triumph dealer may affect the
handling, stability or other aspects of the motorcycles operation which may result in loss
of motorcycle control and an accident.
Warning
Throughout this operation, ensure that the motorcycle is stabilised and adequately
supported on a paddock stand to prevent risk of injury from the motorcycle falling.
Warning
A torque wrench of known accurate calibration must be used when fitting this accessory
kit. Failure to tighten any of the fasteners to the correct torque specification may affect
motorcycle performance, handling and stability. This may result in loss of motorcycle
control and an accident.
Warning
If the engine has recently been running, the exhaust system will be hot. Before working
on or near the exhaust system, allow sufficient time for the system to cool, as touching
any part of a hot exhaust could cause burn injuries.
Caution
The use of some of these kits will require changes to the fuelling settings. To alter the
fuelling settings a third party programmable control unit will be required.
The use of the following race kit cylinder head gaskets will require changes to the fuelling
settings. To alter fuelling settings a third party programmable control unit will be
required.

• The thickness of the standard cylinder head gasket is 0.7mm. The Race Kit
gaskets are available in 0.60mm and 0.65mm thicknesses. The thickness (t)
of the gasket is clearly marked on the gasket in the position (*) shown above.
NOTE
• Use the appropriate gasket to adjust the squish height (squish height is the
gap between the flat portion of the piston and the cylinder head). Always
ensure the gasket chosen provides a minimum squish height of 0.6mm.
1.Remove the existing cylinder head
gasket in line with the procedures
detailed in the Daytona 675 service
manual.
2.Fit the chosen race kit cylinder head
gasket following the procedures
detailed in the Daytona 675 service
manual.
Cams, Valve Spring & Sprocket Kits
Warning
The race kit must be fitted as a complete set. If it is not fitted as a complete set a failure
may result which could cause loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
Caution
The use of the Camshaft, Valve spring & Sprocket race kits detailed below will require
changes to the fuelling settings. To alter fuelling settings a third party programmable
control unit will be required.

• The race kit valve spring must be used in conjunction with the standard
spring platforms and retainers. The fitted length of the race springs is the
same as the standard spring.
1.The race kit valve springs should be
assembled in the same manner as the
standard valve springs. Follow the
procedure detailed in section 3 of the
Daytona 675 service manual. Ensure
the springs are installed with the close
wound, colour coded end of the springs
facing downwards, towards the piston.
2.The race kit camshafts should be
assembled in the same manner as the
standard camshafts. Follow the
procedure detailed in section 3 of the
Daytona 675 service manual.
3.The race kit cam sprockets should be
mounted and secured to the camshafts
using the slotted holes in the sprocket.
The slotted holes allow adjustment of
the valve timing. The circular holes in
the sprockets are for Triumph service
tool T3880102 and should not be used
to mount the sprockets to the
camshafts.
5.Always check the inlet and exhaust
piston to valve clearance for the timing
selected to use, before running the
engine. You must ensure both
clearances are adequate. As a guide,
the standard nominal piston to valve
clearance is 1.3mm inlet & 1.5mm
exhaust.
6.When the desired timing has been set
the new socket retaining screws
provided should be tightened to 15Nm.
Note, if the screws are released for any
reason, apply ThreeBond 1305 to the
threads before re-tightening.
NOTE
• No timing marks are included on
the race sprockets. Race engines
will typically have different depths
skimmed off the cylinder head and,
therefore require specific
individual timing.
4.The camshafts should be timed using
cam degreeing equipment which
typically consists of a degree wheel,
pointer, dial indicator and piston stop.
Optimum cam timing will depend on the
exact specification of the engine, but a
recommended starting point is 104
IMOP (Inlet Maximum Opening Point)
and 104
