Triumph Daytona 955i (2000)
2000 Triumph Daytona 955i
CarHunch analysed 105 real MOT records for the 2000 Triumph Daytona 955i. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2000 Triumph Daytona 955i has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 33.9%, less than half the UK average of 80%, which suggests these bikes need careful pre-purchase inspection and regular maintenance to stay roadworthy. The good news is that dangerous defects are rare at 2.9%, so while this model demands attention, catastrophic safety failures aren't the typical problem.
These bikes show relatively modest mileage for their age (median 12,142 miles, average 20,097), indicating many are weekend riders rather than daily commuters, yet they still rack up an average of 0.9 advisories per MOT—mostly minor wear items rather than outright failures. If you're considering one, budget for incremental repairs and have a pre-purchase inspection done by someone familiar with superbikes, as the low pass rate reflects the high-maintenance nature of the model rather than fundamental design flaws.
What to check before buying a 2000 Triumph Daytona 955i
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
