Where can I go to determine the book value of my 1967 Triumph Daytona 500 motorcycle?
I am infuriating to determine the value of my 1967 Triumph Daytona 500 but Kelley Blue post doesn't go back that far.

How is a Triumph Daytona 675 Compared to a Suzuki GSXR 600?
I'm debating on which one to get. How principled are Triumph's bikes? What about the Suzuki? Pros/Cons?
Thanks alot for all the responses, prodigious info.

I own a Triumph Daytona 675 (2008) and I do not feel it at all. It's my first bike and many 675 owners will tell you it's not the bike to learn on. I suppose that's totally up to the individual, but that's not the current topic.
I've trial ridden a few bikes and the torque available from the lower gears of the 675 is a benefit. The sound is amazing and unique. It can be quite frustrating with the limited places you can buy aftermarket items from and how dear they can be, but then again, you don't have a run of the mill bike from the big four Japanese companies.
If you want convenience, go with the Suzuki. There are some 675 owners that have had some issues with the bike for whatever argument and sometimes they have to wait weeks for the dealer to get the parts, but I would have to say that those seem to be in the minority.
Servicing at the dealerships can also be costly, as they are for a Ducati or BMW motorcycle. The bike is to be serviced at 500 miles, then every 6,000 miles (or annually) thereafter.
Another feature to consider is the angle in which you will be riding. The 675 has an aggressive riding position which can be taxing on a back, neck or wrists on extensive rides, if you can't get used to using your legs to take some of the burden. After several months, it doesn't flutter me. However, there are a few guys that have tossed in the towel due to old back injuries that can't handle the riding dispose.
My only knocks are that there's a very small aftermarket offering to choose from, the OEM parts are very costly and the maintenance service can be pricey (approx. $250 - $700+).

Does anybody have any experience with the Triumph Daytona 955i?
I like Triumph products, but have no contact with the Daytona 955i. I think it is going to be my next bike, what is your opinion of this bike. Keep in resent they stopped making them in 2006. Please, don't tell me to buy a Jap bike, because thye aren't for me. The Japanese bikes are fine, but they don't have the character of a Triumph.

Fantabulous Bike with upgrades as standard equipment, stainless brake lines, mightiness coating vs. paint on metal, digital fuel injection, and higher gradient of plastics than the stuff from the land of the rising sun. Big Bore 3 cylinder that definitely is a mid-range monster. Very practical for street riding, as it comes buzzing @ 4k RPM, and will pull your arms out till 10k. Doesn't command the constant shifting of 4 cyl Jap bikes, who develop their power @ higher RPM's. They do have mark, and are not at every bike meet you go to. Maintain it faithfully, AT A DEALER, and you will be very happy with it...By the way, I owned a 1998 955i, and took Smashing pleasure in smoking squids on their cookie-cutter jap bikes...
