When I heard you mention your size and weight I reminded myself that you are the best motorcycle reviewer on RU-vid. So many reviewers don't mention these key facts when describing how their motorcycles fit them making the comparisons somewhat vague. Not our Flyer. You're also such an impressive rider (pilot?) and it's great that you always frame the road shot properly as well instead of looking down at the dang instruments. Love the Bike news too. I don't think our Southern California Canyon Racers could handle the gooey roads in England the way you do by the way. A+

Man, whomever is in charge of anesthetic design at Triumph should get a raise. I think every style bike they make is beautiful. The Bobber and Speedmaster are gorgeous cruisers, the Tigers are spectacular looking ADV bikes, the Bonneville line is about as nice as a retro bike can look, and this new Trident looks fantastic as well. Hats off to the Triumph team.

Try it and you'll see too!! Excellent summary of the bike Andy and definitely a great choice out of similar style and size options available at the moment!! Were I still riding I'd go out and find a T160 tomorrow!!

I took my Tiger Explorer for it’s MoT and annual service to Youles Triumph in Blackburn this afternoon and due to the mezzanine lounge/waiting area I was able to ‘browse’ the bikes on the showroom from a social distance and I was mightily impressed with the Trident. Looking forward to booking a test ride when we’re able to. I’ll be keeping the Explorer for a long time yet, but the Trident would be the perfect second bike for when you just want a quick blast with your jeans on and a casual jacket.

I really appreciate your review as you address all the things that I looked for when considering this machine. My first bike is a Speedmaster which I love, and wanted my second to be something altogether different but still a trusty Triumph. I'm glad you're loving it! Happy riding to you!

Yamaha has sold a lot of MT07s. The Trident looks good but the Yamaha is also a fun bike to ride and for that matter so is the Honda and both are also known for their stone axe reliability. That being said, I think the Trident will sell very well. It comes in at a great price point, has the Triumph name, and a unique engine.

Short story. I went to collect my Triumph Trident 660 from a dealer, thinking I was going to get the silver and red one. When I turned up to collect my new bike. I made the assumption it was going to be the one previously mentioned. To my shock I ordered the plain Jane black version. But now I'm liking it. Because it a nice subtle design, which I think grows on you. It's classic looking with a nice small triumph badge So in the end Im glad that I got that model.

Nice bike and really when it comes down to it if that was the largest capacity legally on the road it's plenty fast enough especially in the UK where the roads are at best crowded if not down right chaotic .

A few have commented about the rear numberplate hanger - & let's face it we all replace standard position hangers with R&G anyway. I personally like this style of hanger but can't understand why manufacturers that use them don't incorporate the indicators into the rear light, or place them on the tail as per the gsxr's a few years ago. That would leave a much cleaner profile, lighter, so the stay/cable mount could be thinner, & then if they produced a (legal) curved numberplate doubling up as the "mudguard" it woudl be a much neater job - just needing a small numberplate led above it. Come on R&G.........
@ragerider6283
@ragerider6283 3 года назад
Nice little vid. The Trident's surely got to be the new class leader. Although while I think the Tuono 660 might well be a "better" bike, it's £2500 more which is a big premium. Very interested to see your impression of the Tuono as and when to see if that extra cost is worth it.

Just curious where you feel the CB fits? It's more powerful, looks better; subjective I know, not that the Trident isn't attractive, and priced within a skinny digit of the Triumph. It also has very good build quality, a screaming four cylinder engine, and should be very reliable.
@ragerider6283
@ragerider6283 3 года назад
@@kevincrockett5155 It's an interesting & valid point. I'm not really a fan of the CB but that's subjective as you say & it's definitely a serious competitor because the price of the Triumph has now pushed the ceiling of the class up to encompass the CB. Before it was about a grand+ more than the others bikes in this class with a lot more power so not a direct rival as such. Personally I think the Triumph is cooler & more desirable than the CB but the different engine configurations will play a role & it will be an interesting group test. The other Japanese manufacturers really need to up their game but ironically I would still buy an SV for that engine & spend the difference on a full system. Go figure lol.

@ashleyreynolds6604
@ashleyreynolds6604 3 года назад
Regarding the quality of their bikes, I think it depends where you read. There are owners of Speed Twins with surprising accounts of corrosion and clocks fogging for example. And those who have no issues at all. Thruxton was the same, there's a long list for that one. Corrosion, random stalling, broken wiring loom at headstock, gear selector shaft shearing, water ingress to instruments, brake lever pulls to the bars on first pull, side stand spring breaking (bike cuts out as switch goes open circuit), arcing spark plug caps. There's probably other more trivial issues I've overlooked. I still own mine in spite of all this so work that one out🤷‍♂️

Great price. Lots of torque in the usable rev range. Excellent TFT display. Oh wait......I thought you were talking about the Kawasaki Z650 for a minute. Does the Trident have the torque of a twin and the smoothness of a four, or the torque of a four and the smoothness of a twin? Or is the triple really somewhere in the middle? It faces tough competition in the US. The Z650 has a better looking back end and its TFT display looks nicer. The MT-07 is more of a hooligan machine and the CB650 is too expensive.
