The new Triumph Trident 660 joins Triumph’s award-winning Roadster lineup  and it marks the beginning of a new chapter for the Triumph Roadster segment and competes in what is now one of the most dynamic and exciting categories in motorcycling.

The distinctive look of the new Trident 600 is characterised by a minimalist stance and clean lines with a new contemporary design style and Triumph’s signature knee cut-outs. The roadster gets a new 7’’ full LED headlight, lightweight cast aluminium five-spoke wheels, a tidy rear design with a minimal number plate hanger integrated with the rear indicators.

The Trident rider will experience the perfect balance of low-down torque, mid-range and top-end power, with the triple’s signature smooth, responsive, and linear delivery. Riders will benefit from a punchy and linear power and torque delivery, with peak power of 80 BHP at 10,250 rpm and over 90% of the maximum torque being available across most of the rev range, peaking at 64Nm at 6,250rpm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox.

The new Trident comes fitted as standard with three class-leading technology features: with 2 riding modes (Road and Rain), adjustable traction control and ride-by-wire. These characteristics are further enhanced by the slip and assist clutch with a new span-optimised clutch lever. A triumph shift assist up-&-down quickshifter is available as an accessory.

Combining a wet weight of just 189kg, all-new tubular steel chassis, an ergonomic set-up designed to suit both experienced and new riders, lightweight 17’’ aluminium spoke wheels, a low 805mm seat height and tapered aluminium bars, the Trident is designed to deliver best-in-class handling. On the front, the bike is equipped with Showa upside-down separate function forks giving 120mm front wheel travel, while on the rear the Trident features the Showa preload-adjustable monoshock rear suspension unit.

The handling performance is enhanced further by the leading characteristics of the Michelin Road 5 tyres, fitted as standard. A tyre pressure monitoring system is also available as an accessory. Braking duties are carried by 2-piston Nissin sliding front calipers with twin lightweight 310mm discs on the front, and single-piston Nissin rear caliper on the rear disc.

The Triumph Trident is also equipped with an elegantly styled all-new dashboard providing the rider with all necessary information in a compact, clean and uncluttered style through a colour TFT screen integrated with a crystal clear ‘white-on-black’ LCD display. The instruments, when implemented with the dedicated My Triumph Connectivity System accessory module, can also provide turn-by-turn navigation, GoPro control and phone and music control, all via Bluetooth, using the handlebar-mounted switch cubes.

The Triumph Trident 660 will be available in Triumph dealerships from late January 2021.
