Triumph Daytona 675 = excellent design
Because the Daytona isn't lighter, thinner, with more down low torque and better looks. If anything, worldwide motorcycle press worships the Japanese. I can't think of one European bike in the past 10 years that could sincerely challenge the Japanese industry, with the exceptions of a 916 series bike or one of the fancy Aprilias with factory supercool suspension.
Give credit where it is due, the Daytona is an amazing piece of engineering that put Triumph at the head of the pack in the 600 class. You can't possibly argue against that statement, even if you believe that it doesn't deserve Masterbike (which is really an excuse to ride all these bikes on a free trip to Spain).
