While the design language is that of a slightly evolved version of the Triumph Daytona 765, it is the spec sheet that's does more exciting. The 765 cc in-line three-cylinder motor churns out 127 bhp at 12,250 rpm, while peak torque stands at 80 Nm. Supporting all that power is a carbon fibre bodywork along with Ohlins suspension including NIX30 forks at the front and TTX36 monoshock at the rear. Braking performance comes from Brembo Stylema brakes and there's an Arrow exhaust too. The TFT display has been carried over from the Street Triple and acces to different throttle maps. Triumph has yet to confirm the kerb weight on the motorcycle.

While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen. The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
