Ive also had mine for about a month and I don't think there is a single thing I dislike about the bike. Needs an exhaust tho to release that triple sound
Agree with you. He's probably used to the choppy on/off throttle of his Z which can be misconstrued as "torquey". Triumph sets the standard for smooth throttle delivery which sometimes gets confused with "lack of torque." I mean shoot, the throttle on my Trident is smoother than on my Panigale!
Congrats, next steps, full system, dna air filter and a dnk tune ecu flash, thanks me later. I also have a trident and believe me when you do that your trident will be another motorcycle.
The z650 is the worst of the class. Get a Trident or Honda CB650 if you want mid torque that pulls all the way to redline or a Yamaha MT07 for Low/Mid torque that’s dips at high revs. Kawasaki is nowhere close to those 3.
Is this your top rated middleweight naked? How do you think it compares to the Japanese nakeds, and do you think you can justify the price difference with additional equipment?
If you’re looking for build quality, technology and smoothness I would put this bike at the top. Most fun factor bike would be the Yamaha mt07. Best in between bike in my opinion would be the Kawasaki z650. In biased to the kawi so take that as you will
@@812moto what if you throw in the f 900 R and the tuono 660? A spec'd out trident is pretty close to base models of those. I really am liking what I'm hearing on the Aprilia.
@@thevances5780 I have no experience with the aprilia or the f900r. I don’t think the f900 would be in the same class. Personally I would go for a rs660 over all of the bikes discussed in the class but price is key as well
@@812moto I would say putting the z at the top of this list is insanely high bias factor. lol It's an alright bike, but by just about any objective (and most subjective) measure it's somewhere in the middle of the pack. I don't think a list exists that stick the z in the top 3 or 4 of the class, and for many it's possibly the least desired bike in the field.
@@812moto yes im actually eyeing those two versys and tiger but since the tiger and the tridennt share the same engine might as well ... currently using a naked... its ok as long as i dont need to carry much stuff if i do im looking at those two
@@user-qj8td3zb2l at the time it was a z650 which has a lower seat, and the mt07 which both felt more punchy to me is what I meant to say I guess. The trident feels more linear with the power but doesn’t have that on tap torque the twins have.
