Beautiful bike and I'm so glad the reviews are mostly positive. Ordered my Trident at launch in silver ice / red... would have gone with the matte black but I was concerned over scuffs on the matte finish. Unfortunately it still being winter and being in Canada, I have to wait a few more weeks before delivery.
Good video! I picked up my bike last week and I agree with you on the suspension and throttle. I can confirm that the ride is firm and so is the seat but the handling is really good. The ride may become more compliant with time. As for the throttle, its perfect for me. Its not as jerky as some ride by wire throttles I've dealt with. The throttle allows for easy application in slow speed environments and has a nice roll on. I have fitted the triumph round bar ends for this bike and they work really well. They match the design of the round dash and headlight. I noticed that on the back of the mirrors, the housing has a ribbed surface. This ribbing at is also present on another rounded surface, the shock towers. This bike is very nicely designed and assembled. I'm still 'running in' my bike and I find it light, nimble, fast enough and easy to ride. This is without doubt the best motorcycling purchase I've ever made.
I am guessing this bike is all about the corner ! Have a blast with it .. Less hp and using more of tha engine pulling the bike out of the corners just sounds like a blast to me .. I think this bike will be popular with a lot of seasoned riders who don't need 120 hp to have some fun .. Triumph knows how to define the word Roadster ... Over and over again, they bringing smiles to the open country road ..
True, we don't need 120 hp to have fun. I also don't need horrid copycat styling, 4 feet of clearance between the top of the rear tire and the bottom of the rear fender, a passenger perch with 8 feet of ground clearance, and as Mr. Perry mentioned "that awful swinging reg plate contraption:". A great engine and rolling chassis mated to putrid styling. I already have one of those - a second gen SV650.
Fabulous video MB - not like the normal reviewers (one in particular YT'er who wobbles the handlebars and states the bike is 'flickable') you've covered all the angles in your usual style. Straightforward, thorough, engaging and informative. I've had a T120 since 2017 which I've modded to exactly where I want it and commute on it daily all year. Looking for a second bike for the winter commute and was tempted by the Tiger but now I've seen this ..... ?? Sincere thanks for making this and looking forward to future Trident vids.
Thanks Paul - either would make a good second bike to the T120. The Tiger 850 Sport looks like decent value, so demoing one of those and one of these might be a good starting point?
Motobob, are you in North Kent? I sometimes recognise some of the roads you ride on! If you fancy a ride out and comparison in the summer I'd be up for it. I have an '18 SV650.
I rode the trident the other day, rear suspension was a little choppy on certain roads surfaces, and the throttle response was so smooth and easy to use I couldn’t see an issue. Overall I found it to be pretty spot on in this price bracket. It’s a proper motorbike for riders all ages and temperament, if you get me, I appreciate it has the A2 license facility however it is so much more than a novice bike.... I really liked it... good update review Bob. Cheers.
I was loaned a Trident as a curtesy Bike when my Street Triple went in for a major service. I agree with you about the handling, It felt so nimble on twisty roads, light and sure footed. Suspension! just having preload is a real 'bummer' nowadays..I own the R version of the Striple which of course has pre-load plus damping adjustment. manufactures can, I'm sure make provision without increasing the price to much.We humans are so diverse in weight, suspension adjustment should be the norm. Overall I thought this bike was pretty good, would be a good choice for a new rider to step up to....But the 'turd in the water pipe' for me was that awful swinging reg plate contraption over the rear wheel...Apart from that, nice bike
I made a 20-mile test trip today, and the rear suspension is simply bad. Shame cause all the rest is spot on. Buying the bike to spend another £500 for the proper suspension is not a good thing
Mt07 / xsr700 vs trident. They came out with a cool app here in the states to rent motorcycles from different owners in the surrounding area. Most bikes range from 40-70 bucks a day which is not bad at all.
Great video lovely bike I think triumph have raised the bar with all their bikes the fit and finish on them is fantastic stay safe looking forward to more videos 🇬🇧👍
G'Day Bob.Nice one, i hope you'll enjoy the new machine, Every bike has its own idiosyncrasies, i'll call it character. Looking forward to the mod videos.
Running in: I kept it @ 4000 till 480kms, from then on 5000, but the saddle's off to my seat specialist for uprating - more support & 2 cm higher. First service round same time as you..... Being 1m70 & 73 kg I've put the preload up to click nr 3. C u around keep on safe (T)riding.....
There is a lowering kit now lowers it 20mm at rear & front is adjusted down 15mm for shorter riders.Tiger comes with a 20mm lower comfort seat but stock seat is higher at 830mm.
you did a great video where you compared Triumph Street Twin to speed twin, we loved it. we hope you do a comparison of Street Twin to the trident. thanks
A windscreen would definitely help. And not the little Triumph accessories flyscreen. Dart Classic flyscreen makes well sized windscreens so hopefully they'll come out with one for the Trident.
Just ordered mine, same colour but an 8 week wait! We live in South West France so the roads are made for this bike. My bike now is a BMW 650 GS so this will be so different. I'm so excited. When you find a tail tidy for the bike will you let me know! Thanks very much and for the great review.
If it were mine, I would pop off the radiator side covers and spray them a dark charcoal grey in a satin finish. Otherwise it’s a great looking bike. Congratulations.
@@edmondgrieve4393 I have to give you two thumbs up. I loved my Speed Triple. I also really liked my SV 650. Give me the low end torque and power for a suburban ride and I'm happy : )
Think it looks great. Get the radiators shroud painted matt black. Rest of your add ons look good! Sucks about the exhaust though. My mk1 bandit had a one piece pipe as did my ER5. A hacksaw fixed both those problems!
@@motobob I've just vinyl wrapped the light surround and dash I've made for my bike. If I can do it.... Get decent quality wrap and look at some tutorials. You can always take it off and have another go.
Big choice to make regarding exhaust. Euro 5 has rendered 99% of stock exhausts as dyson’s.. its either warranty, or full sound experience. I know what id do
Hopefully mine is getting delivered to me in the next few days. Had to wait for some of the accessories to come in! I'm definitely thinking of adding a fender extender to the front, a shock sock for the rear suspension and a radiator guard when they come out.
Tec bike parts seem to be thinking up some nice options, the number plate and light options at rear, and perhaps storage options ...and even a pillion delete: cowling
Saw that vid and I think the idea to move the plate and indicators back up to the tail are going to look terrible. But I got their black levers and paddock stand bobbins already...
It looks like the front exhaust downpipe has been blasted with road grit due to the short front guard, that doesn't look good for the life of the radiator!
Yes trident nice display, traction control, triple exhaust and good look But i bought mt07 because of reliability and cp2 For me traction control are not necessary for this range of bike and triple exhaust better than two exhaust but cannot compare to cp2 Lastly, i cannot imaging if i want to install side box and top box for trident Sorry for bad english 😅
It’s so true about the Ground clearance!! I live in the Darjeeling Himalayas . One of the most remote parts of India. I used go have and Enfield and a Yamaha R3 and they did Ok. My ex Triumph street Triple and my present bike Ninja 1000 SX… it’s horrendous.. i always seem to scrape the big bumps and the pot holes :).
It looks great MB, cant wait to see more and hear what your longer term views on it are. Hope to see ya out and about sometime soon. (Lockdown permitting of course)
I get to borrow plenty of more powerful bikes, but there’s barely anywhere in the uk you can genuinely use them. As they say, it’s more fun to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow
Nice, simple and easy to follow commentary. I'd like on a rare occasion to go 300-400 miles, so is this seat pretty comfy, fairly steady on hwy, and get good mpg? Thanks, Rick
The Street Triple A2 would be a very interesting comparison. I really can't see Triumph selling many more Street Triple A2s now this is out. I reckon that will be dropped from the range in the next year or so. The extra £1k is just too much . It''d be unfair to compare it to a Street Triple RS on outright performance, but lower , should I say "legal" speed riding, that riders are more likely to do 90% of the time, that'd be a valid comparison. So how it gets to say 70 MPH. I don't guess there will be a lot in it.
some day in the near future i will change my rebel 500...and surely will be a triumph.but not this one..........the triple street RS765. that is a beast.and a final end with bike.
Looks great. I’m getting mine next week. Are those the Machined Bar End Mirrors? I thought they were round and smaller. I’ve ordered mine with the Style Pack so hoping I get the smaller round ones. Congrats on the new bike👍
Appreciate the review - that would of been the colour I would of gone for with the big logo incl the bar end mirrors - at the start or the year it's was a toss up between the triumph trident and Moto Guzzi V7 Centenario which i'm still deciding on - as i'm a bit of a show off the Moto Guzzi edges it for me - nevertheless i'm looking to test ride the trident v.soon which may sway my decision further who knows.
Seems like lead times for delivery of this and other motorbikes is really crazy at the moment sadly. A friend cancelled his order for a new bike as basically he needed a bike to get to work and opted for second hand from same dealer. Tridents are very popular but seem worth waiting for if you have another bike to run in meantime
In general, do you prefer riding with a pack-sack or is it worth having seat luggage? I have a laptop and other crap I need to bring to work every day. Just wondering everyone's thoughts.
Congratulation ! Look forward to your future videos on your Trident. Question, what tires are you running on your Street Twin nowadays. I have a 2017 Street Cup and looking for new tires. Stay healthy and ride safe
Great review of a terrific new bike Bob. In my view one of the best new bikes of the year in this reasonable price range, from any maker, and especially from Triumph which have usually tended to be premium priced machines but with quality to match. Agree with the quickshifter and heated grips as the main worthwhile accessories, possibly the phone connectivitiy app too. I always enjoy your reviews for two reasons. You know your stuff and take the trouble to understand a bike and its controls etc. before commenting, in contrast to many other YT reviewers. You know the type, "how do you switch this on or off, what does that button do etc." I find it poor form when a reviewer obviously hasn't bothered to familiarise themself with a bike before publishing here. And secondly you are have a clear and enthusiastic voice which is very pleasant to hear. You could review a phone directory and make it interesting. Not sure about the jihadi beard though. 😉
@@memelord7551 They started the booking in Jan at Rs 10000/-. Triumph is going to price it competitively as it's their entry level bike. I think it'll be around Rs 6.5 - 7 lacs.
Hey when you compare your street twin with the trident, can you show us how the headlights perform in the dark? Curious to see how the trident LED setup fairs to the after market unit on your street twin.
Thanks for the review. I'd love to see a comparison with the CB650R !! I will but a motorbike in the coming months and I'm really in balance between both at the moment.... your opinion would be a great help !
Great bike, great video. I’m thinking about getting one as a second bike to commute on & do weekend trips up to 200miles. Could you confirm the tank range over real world riding & not just spanking it everywhere? Cheers.
I always have to mute your music. I don't like the helmet, either. Making my mind up on the bike. I wonder whether Hepco & Becket will make the C-Bow system for the 660. If so, the 22-litre Orbit hard cases would look good and be practical as they don't stick out far. I wonder if there's enough room for my tail pack. It would make a good bike for Thailand, I think. I wouldn't void your warranty. Not on a Triumph. Good video.
Congratulations on the new bike . Nothing beats that “New Bike” feeling 👍
very nice cinematography my friend - keep pumping these out and you are golden!
Love the stock underbelly exhaust. I hate huge mufflers slapped on the side of bikes

Another cracking video! The shift Assist is amazing!! So much fun! even at lower Revs. I've gone for the Matt Black Bell Eliminator!
Yeah I was surprised at just how well it works whilst running in. Super smooth!
She is a Lovely bit of kit. Blows away the competition in looks alone. Nice price point. Quick shifter! Bloody hell, yes!
RUclipsr TEC Bike parts has been making changeable parts for this bike. IE. Lowered foot pegs for tall riders, Adjustable clutch lever and so on.
I want to see the quickshifter video on it....
Will do
@@motobob any videos on how the triumph connectivity works?
Black is the best color imo with the white flag.
"Are you going to mod it?"
"No... Unless"
So yes, haha
Tec Bike Parts do some decent black levers and footrests for the Trident. 👌
I have those on my Street Twin - agree they're good for the money
A comparison with the sv,if and when possible,would be great 😬

Sounds like a fantastic bike. Enjoy!

Yeah I’m definitely going to do something about those
The cat/exhaust look like they're already rusting. I prefer the Trident looks and triple engine but the MT07 seems more practical.
Mt10 has some paint chipping issues from what Ive read which means same may apply to MT09 and MT07.
Triumph triple engines run way smoother than the 07 or even the 09, I'll choose a triumph over a Yamaha anyday without even blinking an eye.
@@edmondgrieve4393 I have to give you two thumbs up. I loved my Speed Triple. I also really liked my SV 650. Give me the low end torque and power for a suburban ride and I'm happy : )
I'd like to see the black paint scheme with the glossy red bits added. I think it would look good.
There is a paint scheme similar to what you're suggesting
I totally agree, rear set foot pegs will be tiresome for long distance riding .
The tail end is just lacking something. Needs more bodywork on the sides toward the rear.
So I'm India and will be handling new triumph dealership.. Really excited 😁
Woah 😻 , need a tour there
That's heck of a job good luck from Chennai.

Just put my name down on the waiting list can't wait perfect bike
A bike that's still available new and similar in price is the KTM 790 Duke.
A comparison that people are yet to mention.
It would be good to see a comparison against a 675 street triple rather than a 765

5 lakhs ?
6 lakhs ?
It's definitely going to be under 7 I suppose !
@@memelord7551 They started the booking in Jan at Rs 10000/-. Triumph is going to price it competitively as it's their entry level bike. I think it'll be around Rs 6.5 - 7 lacs.
Hey when you compare your street twin with the trident, can you show us how the headlights perform in the dark? Curious to see how the trident LED setup fairs to the after market unit on your street twin.
Awesome bike bro😍 enjoy it.
Thanks for the review.
I'd love to see a comparison with the CB650R !!
I will but a motorbike in the coming months and I'm really in balance between both at the moment.... your opinion would be a great help !
In Europe the roads tend to be better? Man, where do you live? ahahah
I love this motorcycle, it's beautiful. And the price is very nice.
Ok the warmer parts of europe!
It's a nice bike but I'll stick with my 2018 MT07.
Great bike, great video.
I’m thinking about getting one as a second bike to commute on & do weekend trips up to 200miles.
Could you confirm the tank range over real world riding & not just spanking it everywhere?
Cheers.
the is lowered kit
you can gain 40mm over all 😉
Nice video Bob. Wanted to check if you can compare Trident with Beneli 600i
Not sure if there's a Beneli dealer nearby but I will keep an eye out
I always have to mute your music. I don't like the helmet, either. Making my mind up on the bike. I wonder whether Hepco & Becket will make the C-Bow system for the 660. If so, the 22-litre Orbit hard cases would look good and be practical as they don't stick out far. I wonder if there's enough room for my tail pack. It would make a good bike for Thailand, I think.
I wouldn't void your warranty. Not on a Triumph.
Good video.
Excellent video! What backpack, in the video, are you using? Please share a link. Keep up the fantastic reviews!!
Hi there, very nice video and congrats for your new bike👍🏻
Can you tell me what headset you are using please?
Thanks a lot!
Matteo
Compare with Honda CB650r
No surprise there then!
