Triumph Trident 660 Review. The final verdict. The Gods have spoken! Good or Bad? Odin speaks out! 

The kind of people that think that this motorcycle isn’t fast enough, are the sort of people that shouldn’t be on public roads, and riding motorcycles. Beautiful Triumph, and great review...👌🇨🇦✌️😎

First time I am watching this channel and I love how the presentation is done with a father/son set up. Love it.

Thank you from India. Another reason for India being a motorcycling country is the weather, you can bike all year round in most of the parts of the country. And the country roads are beautiful for biking.

Good to see you let us hear the sound of the bike, without talking over it, like many do. Thanks

Finally I found reviewers who let us hear and ENJOY the sound of the engine instead of killing the enjoyment with ennoying music ! You have a new fan.

I’m guessing from the expression that you guys like it. Can’t wait for the review.

Writing from India... Have this beast arrived.. gonna soon go for test ride and should check if this will be my dream bike ever... And lovely duo reviews champs!

You got a new sub! love the presentation style! especially the random nature shots for fraction of a second!

nice to se an reviewer of normal proportions, and not the usual pony jockey size riders, i am about 17 stone and 6 ft. and i am looking for a naked bike to fit my size, so its good to get some realistic perspective, that earns my sub, thanks guys.

I have had my eye on the Trident for ages and thinking of it as my first bike. I have watched every review I could find, but this is by far the best. Hardly anyone talks of the seating for a pillion for example which is a key consideration for me. Thank you and well done.

This is the only video that cleared my confusion - will it look good on a 6'1" tall rider? Thanks a lot!! Love from India!!

Just found yr channel and have to say I'm loving it.. Being 6'4" and 19st myself its really interesting to get yr opinions as big guys.. Subscribed 👍

Nice bike, good value but for me I prefer the lower revving Street Twin. Sounds like Mr Darcy was on the Helium towards the end. Great review, cheers.

Greetings from Canada! Love your reviews and this video is one of the reasons I've got a down payment on one of these little beasties. I don't get it until sometime next year, but I'm sure it will be worth the wait! Thanks guys and can't wait to see Mr. Darcy finally get to ride some of these machines with his Ol' Man.

Great Review! Just ordered one, same paint job as the one tested, so really pleased to see it on the road.

Seen the reviews and bought one, picked it up one week ago. First service on Saturday (600 bollocks freezing miles) and a further 400 before I can have a bit of fun 😎 Mind on that if you spec it up fully you’ll put a further £2000 on the list price

Like the virtual riding camera angle segments, canceling turn signals are nice, can't remember to turn mine off.

I've watched several reviews of this bike and agree with others that this particular review was outstanding. And those country lanes are gorgeous!

As usual, great review! Looks like a really happy bike to ride. But, gentlemen, not for your size. Ol’man beard deserves something more ominous.

Great grass roots review....A lot of other reviews I watch don't mention soul and character (Kudos Ol' Man). I say that as I have previously owned an MT07 which has bags of character, reviewer's neglect to point this out in there reviews. I live in Thailand, as you know Triumph's are made in Thailand and they are very popular in the Asian market (shorter rider's and Triumph brand). I am tempted........Cheers

This is the review I've been waiting on. I actually trust your opinions over some others, as the both of you seem far less biased in your reviews. Now all that is left is to give one a try and see if it can convince me to part with some of my money. Thanks for a great review, especially the beautiful location. Some splendid looking country you chaps have. Good day.

I can already tell I’m going to love this bike much more than the Thruxton 1200 R it’s replacing.

Excellent review, this bike is very similar to the MV Brutale triple 675/800.

new rider here, just a few months of experience but love the trident. i find myself out on it and not wanting to end the ride. it's confidence inspiring and i'm finding that as my skill levels go up that it gets more and more rewarding to ride. the quick shifter is great at times and clunky at others but maybe that's just because i haven't quite got it figured-out yet. however i've read on forums where this is common. i'm 6' tall and it feels very comfortable. do i look too tall for it? i don't care.

I like it in every way coming from a Street twin at 74 years old, but it sounds like a sewing machine, I would have to do my intake exhaust treatment if it's at all possible.

A really cool bike. I am glad they are making more learner friendly bikes. This is a very good looking bike. Probably plenty of real world power.

Love the review from my friends across the pond. Keep up the good work gents!!

Thank you for riding this one! I'm tall enough to see how this one is a no go for me... Not really a problem, 'cause there's enough out there to choose from. :)

Thanks for the in-depth yet refreshing review. May I know the ground clearance as Indian roads are extremely bumpy.

i found your channel as i was looking for Honda CB 1100 RS review, i like your videos and your style. any part of British proud spirit in that video ? tell me the true ! i have to say i love this bike, it's a "pavé dans la mare" from Triumph. i think i would be the Old : i 'm 58 years old. a french subscriber ;)

Great review gentlemen thank you. Disappointed that at 6’3 it may be a struggle for me.

My only problem with this bike is that I might not be able to fit my 56 litre Givi rack and Topbox with that subframe. I find this lockable top box indispensable for storing my helmet and shopping. It has been a permanent fixture on the back of my current bike since the day I bought it. Backpacks really don't cut it as I hate lugging a helmet around shopping centres. The Trident is a very impressive, sensible all round bike with very good performance at a reasonable price point. Ownership costs add to its attraction.

Excellent review!

Love your format of review.👍

Alright... so if this one is too small and you're looking for a retro... for a 6'3 rider... what are you recommendations?

Great Video and bike review, it’s a very good looking bike in my opinion, I will most probably test ride it next week, hopefully. On a side fun note, Ol’ man if Disney ever decide to do a live action movie for the little mermaid you should be casted as her father king triton :)...Anyway keep up those great reviews...cheers ✌🏼👍🏼

Looks like a smaller version of the Indian FTR. I've liked the classic lines forever, but this is a looker.

Your old man and my dad are same height and both are bike enthusiast but I'm 5'7 and my papa doesn't like that lol. Loved your review ♥️

Thanks, my bike is on order!

Thumbs up for “ -400 degree & looks like an ape on a bicycle” 😂 😂 I literally spill my beer 😂 😂 nice bike! It reminds me of husqvarna on your previous review, I think both had short wheelbase, but I think the seat height on 701 somehow make it looks a little better on tall riders, but performance wise I think triumph slightly better in terms of smooth, that just my opinion though, and 2 thumbs up for not scaring the horse, well represent bikers, we are not that bad as describe, it’s sad that maybe just few young bikers fault and suddenly we are hated among riders 😞 respect!

im 6'3 and i prefer small bikes. even cruisers i prefer short wheel base like the sportster. i think its because i started to ride as a child i think it always bring a good mood into me to ride 'small' or feel big on the bike

Great video, thanks guys! You've helped me reach my decision to buy one!

0:52 I can hear Mr Darcy but can’t see him......

Another great review. This or Honda Cb650r ? I've rode the CB and loved it, Trident just looks a little smaller and cheaper looking, what's your thoughts 👍

Kind of low power for me. Mt09/speed triple is just above the goldilocks zone so you can have that extra fun. After a duke 790 and 2 mt09s im now on a 2020 low rider s. I'm waiting for a bike like Hondas cbr650rr but with 10-15 more hp and at least under 450lbs

In Future hope to see you in TV ads or Bike magazines or motor bike related ads if not U.k, may be in India for Sure.

Love your videos Mr ol' man big up !

Not all Triumphs are 10,000 mile services the streets and speeds are 6,000, so 10,000 mile periods would be a great money saver.

Good looking bike but it needs some bar end mirrors and nice brake/clutch leavers. It know it's Triumph's entry level bike but the cockpit looks a little low rent compared to the Res of the bike.

@15:06 haha, gotta hurry and get that last bit in. I really like this bike. Wouldn't mind having this as a second bike just for running canyons.

Can’t wait to get this as my first bike 😁

Your reviews are the best

Fantastic review! Refreshing to see reviews from someone built like myself (6’2” 245 lbs)😎👍🏻. If I wanted to get something more nimble than my Harley Road King Special, what would you suggest? Maybe a KTM 1290 SuperDuke R? Would love to see you guys do that review video!! Cheers!!

Let's see if they pick a few things from predecessors. 1. Cheap-looking foot brake lever - according to Chris from Bike World "is from Chinese scooter" :) and some Germans reviewers on Tenerife pointed it is poor engineering. 2. Rear monoshock, looking poor/cheap as well but some technical guy (don't remember YT channel, he is well respected, they make bike mods) said it will have to be covered because all crap goes straight into it (performs ok most ppl said) 3. Big ugly brake master cylinder "in the front of your vision", been seen apparently on some Kawasaki's from 70's :) 4. Throttle lag - this one is inconclusive, one Japanese guy said it is bad, some journalists said is there but not bothersome, some did not notice at all. One guy from Thailand presented it clearly, lag is there. 5. Radiator, too large. If you drop the bike, it could be easily broken because sticks out (speculation). I haven't seen a single review of the bike with quick shifter, so we don't know how well it works. Not many negatives overall from reviews, the bike looks solid. Engine performance seems to be good. Is it MT 07 killer? No is not. But it fits into the segment quite well.

Its nice, but I think I would go for the Honda CB650R you reviewed a while back, much the same price and 15 HP more if you want it, I also prefer thee look of the Honda's front brakes (even if they perform equal to the 660) and don't like the low stick stick out registration plate set up.

Interesting to see how it compares against a benchmark bike on back to back test ride with a Honda CB650. I like the look of it, good commuter, good power, handling, brakes. No lugs or room for a centre stand?

Top review chaps cheers 👍🏻

That was very interesting thank you , due to arthritis in my knees and now had knee replacement I’m looking to get lighter bike compared to my Tiger Explorer 1200 and this bike appealed to me

Yous lads do the best reviews thanks

One last comment - Triumph - we need a mid size adv bike. 450 would be good. RE is eating your market.

Thank you. Great review.

Is it a good proposition for first bike ever ?

After having really bad experience with my Harley Davidson Street 750 in india..i am looking forward for Street Triple R and Trident..can you please share your thoughts which one of this looks more presentable on Road also the specifications comparison..

Great review guys , if you guys were about to buy a bike from this category ,would you rather pick Trident or Honda cb650r?

Why do most bikes these days have no center stands.??

Great review!!!!

Great review. Only problem from here is maybe sound, can it be made to sound like a twin with short pipe, throaty sound, or is it a bit much rpm ish for that ? Thanks

What's your thoughts on this bike againts the honda cb650r?

I think it is a good idea for you to look at other reviews before you do your review and mention the points as you did in this vlog.

6’1” but can’t flat foot? Short legs, tall torso?

It looks like the Ol' Man is riding a mini bike. :-)

Good review 👍

Great review , What's your say on its toring capabilities ?

It seems like every British guy who reviews this bike says it's the best thing ever, but all the other chaps seem to not be so sure.

Triumph or mt 07? this is what i want to know

Hello, looking to buy my first bike next year. I'm 37 years old and never had riding experience. I'm looking at the trident as my 1st choice because everywhere I go I hear people saying it makes a great first bike because not too much power. Problem is I'm 6 foot 2 and 245 pounds... would you still recommend I go with the trident or would buying a 3 or 4 years old street triple be better suited for my size? I'm not a crazy guy looking to go 100 miles an hour on city streets and I won't be doing track days... I just want a bike I can grow into and have fun going to work and taking my wife out on the weekend for a ride. Open to comments and suggestions but triumph is a brand that looks amazing and the sound of the triple to me... nothing beats that! Thank you

WTF? Am I looking at future, old guy you or past, young guy you?? Which one is the time traveler?! I’m so confused!!!

cool review

I'm torn on my next bike, but this is nice. How would it handle 15k miles per year? Is reliability good?

I disagree with you saying it is a good all rounder. There is no scope for touring (luggage) nor would a pillion be comfy or feel very safe. Those 2 aspects are very lacking. However due to that you get an excellent bike in every other aspect at what i believe is an astounding price point!

Is the on off throttle snatchy at all? It seemed a little jerky?

Top video 👌

Being 5.11 would that be ok for me?

5'11 average build, 108kg? How would I look? It is in my top 3 bikes!

Nice content! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾❤

How comfortable would a passenger be?

a downside is, this bike has horrible mud and rain protection for your back and ass.

Might as well get a nippy 125 with decent REVS!!

When is young buck going for a cruise!!! The old bull is hogging all the rides !!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Looks like a fun bike, but I think I'll stick with a Thruxton RS for my next one. I enjoyed the video. Always good!

I actually prefer the semi cafe- racer look to the street triple. It's good that Triumph are offering a competitive package to Yamaha's MT-07, Suzuki's SV650 and whatever else Kawasaki and Honda offer in the middle- class 600cc naked bike class.

A beautiful bike, great graphics on the tank. Unsure about those kneepads tho. Great review, as usual.

How do you like this bike vs the cb650r? And I’m sure it has more low end power. But does it have as much top end power as the cb650r?

2 days?? 😮 premiering in 2 days? I won't be able to sleep, eat or do anything that won't get my mind off it... Better half ordered one and we're waiting for it. Innit right Jo?....

nice review chaps, its surprising how much smaller the trident is than I thought it would be. I'm going for the cb650r as my first big bike soon 👍

Great review chaps! I would think Triumph are on to a winner here!

I think the Honda CB650R looks nicer, has that sweet 4 cylinder and will probably work out cheaper to buy and maintain and probably more reliable. It is so nice to see Triumph becoming such a good British product even though not always assembled in the UK.

Great review.. love from India ❤️

The triple whistle is it’s own and the 2023 Baja Orange oh lord that works for me but I wonder what I’ll be forced to sell to make space and pay for it. There’s an unreasonable grumble about the house, something like “how many bikes do you need?” All of them, every dam one

Looks like an mt03 or grom with the bigger guy on it😂
