You can't go wrong with any of those choices. When faced with a similar decision I picked the Daytona 675 and couldn't be happier. Go with whatever YOUR heart desires...
Help me choose my next motorcycle - 899 Panigale vs CBR 1000RR vs 675R

Best answer so far, why do you need other opinions from others on which bike to buy? Like RickT mentioned buy what your intuition tells you.

I don't ever recall seeing you at tims; you have a ways to go to reach poser status.

Well...
I got the 899 back

Thanks guys for all the feedback. Am a little concerned how she died on my 5 hours into the ride back and had to get it towed... it seems to be a glitch? Has not repeated again. Highway speeds, everything is normal, all of a sudden a check engine light comes on. I wonder what is going on, nothing seems to be wrong with the motorcycle, but I pull over anyway to inspect and turn her off. I inspect oil, chain, radiator etc and see no problems, so when I decide okay lets fire her back up, she doesn't start. Clicking from the starter can be heard, the LCD display dims violently as I try to start it, but the engine is not firing.
Once i get it home, put it on the trickle charger for 3 hours, it starts up perfectly and the next day never had a problem OFF the trickle charger.
Really weird. I called Adrian from Ace Moto Tech and he said first he heard of something like that. Could be a rectifier? Though I cannot repeat the symptoms.

It bugs me if this isn't distracted driving then I would like to know what is. He can't even talk while keeping hands on the bars. The video was click bait, I thought just for a seconded the OP was going to show the actual bikes inconsideration of buying..not bla bla bla bla bla
The only "maintenance" you need on those bikes is oil, tires, chain and pads, which is all normal stuff. Mine is fine after 32,000k.
Electronics package? There isn't one on the Triumph, unless you're counting an electric starter and fuel injection...

Have your battery checked also. Maybe you need a new one.
