I love my trident, 1 of the best upgrades was a cheap fender extender (Pyramid) adds a couple of inches to keep an awful lot of road shite off of the radiator, definitely recommended
Im @ about 3 months daily riding on my Trident, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE this bike! Mine didnt cost more than the MSRP though, was about 10k for me after fees/taxes. BTW, in order to achieve a consistent 50mpg, rain mode must be on from my experience. I got the up/down quickshifter after my first month and feel like every Trident should come with it stock. I just wish she had a "sport" mode as well as an extra gallon of tank capacity. The Puig windscreen helps stabilize the bike at higher speeds as well. If you do your own oil changes, you can use a bluetooth ELM327 OBD/CANBUS adapter & smartphone to shut off the wrench light, and Mobil-1 4T oil makes the motor MUCH quieter than the castrol.
Thanks for the tips! Glad to hear you are enjoying this rad bike. I still need to get the OBD adapter for my next oil change since I plan on doing it at home. Ride safe my friend ✌🏼
76, 65 bikes multiple others ridden in 63 years riding. A bike like this is a gem, a new ridden or old guy like me it satisfies. My 765 RS is is way beyond what a new rider needs to cope with. You are correct it is a long term bike in that it never feels lacking in any situation. Top speed, 0-60 the Trident is more than the sum of its parts. ride safe.
I'm 6'4" and this bike fits me well. I've had mine for 4 months and it still puts a smile on my face every ride. No issues and decent fuel mileage. That sound is fantastic and great handling.
I was just about to comment about height and this bike. I'm the same height, very curious how it fit. There are one or two local to me I could sit on. My first choice is a CB650R but they are so hard to find where I am. Closest one that is reasonably priced to me is over 4 hours away.
@@moviedemocom Idk how passengers would fit but the seat for them seems fairly wide and comfy compared to most bikes. I also got one, 2023 model last week. I fit perfectly, 6'5" in boots but I have short legs for my height(like a 33" inseam)
@@Jon-nz3dm honestly both the original poster and the person I’m replying to thank you for posting this as I am 6’ 1” and was wondering how I would fit. Motorcycles honestly seem to be made for shorter people, whereas I’m not super tall I’ve got on a bunch and just felt cramped.
Great review. I was at a demo ride at a dealership recently and talked with w guy who had a Trident and he really likes his bike too. Great all around we and Triumph knocked it out of the park with the design. It’s cool that it has a gas tank cover so you can change the look if you want a different color.
Nice and honest video! Have my Trident now 1 1/2 years. Still very happy and, as you say, perfect for commuting and short week end trips on twisty country roads with little luggage. If looking for saddle bags / storage pls see Hepco-Becker C-Bow and for windscreen Puig
Yo! Great review dude. I’m strongly leaning towards getting this bike. This is the second time watching your review. I feel like you hit everything. Thank you.
I just wanted to say how perfect you made your Trident; i absolutely love the army green panels, the brown seat and the blacked out parts that were chrome (why did they make them that "cheap" looking chrome, ikr). Maybe you can link them as well. Thanks and good job!
I, too, was looking at the rear sets, and wondering why they made it Chrome…lol it doesn’t match the rest of the bike. Plus, I don’t like chrome. anyway, I am considering buying one of these as sort of my first bike, as I briefly purchased a Husqvarna vitpilen from a friend to learn on. Anyway, thank you for making the video there’s some good information in it. Also I live in West Hollywood so if I see you cruising around I’ll give you the two fingers. Lol.
Yea they were neck and neck for me when trying to decide I was also looking at the Ducati scrambler at the time. I think any of them would scratch that itch. All are rad bikes lol.
Got my 2023 for $7,750 out the door here in Atlanta. You’ve got to know how to negotiate. Remember, there are way more bikes than there are people to buy them. 👍🏾
you don't NEED a paddock to clean your chain. its much better with one, but for those on a tight budget, you can absolutely lube your chain without a lift, you just have to chase the bike around the driveway.
I'm thinking of buying a Trident. I live near Brea. How did you find the experience of buying from a dealer? Were the salespeople nice, or did they try to trick you into paying more money? Were there added fees and markups?
The salesman on the floor was friendly enough. It’s always sort of stressful making a purchase like this and talking to the numbers guy in the back. I feel like Triumphs are more rare than a yahmaha and the dealer knows it. That being said there wasn’t any wiggle room for negotiation on the price. They sold it MSRP and added an import fee or something I forget the exact terminology. But from all my research there was only 4 of these bikes being sold in California so I could really be bitter.
Nice video. I test road this and others at So Cal MC in Brea and am really hot to get a Trident. I'm smaller and size is perfect and the power blew me away. I'm used to a Ninja 300 which feels quick but not compared to this.
Great review. I picked up my silver ice Trident few weeks ago and am in love with it! Its also my first proper bike (had a couple of 125s and dirtbikes before). I dont find the power to intimidating but definitely enough for the road, handles amazing and love the lool of it too. I was debating between this and the Honda CB650R, im sure the hondas a great bike being a honda but it just didn’t excite me like the Trident did. Like the blacked out bits you did to the red parts, thats on my list to do soon. Also the seat, is that a cover or have you had the seat re trimmed?
I'm looking at primarily the CB650R but they're so hard to find in DFW. If I can't get the one I'm looking at that's 4 hours away I'm getting a Trident.
Think this is the best review for the Trident 660 on YT, could you please let me know if there are any vibrations or is it smooth? I have a Duke 390 and the throttle feels very twitchy and the vibrations are a little too much. I am planning to get this next year if my finances remain stable.
@@aja749 the throttle is smooth, everything is smooth. I bet you can take it on a test ride to see for yourself beforehand. The break in period first 600 miles or so the throttle feels a little muted or delayed but it’s awesome now.
I saw your grey bike with that brown seat, and I regret to get my trident 660 in Black matt color :( That seat in a full black matt won't be that beautiful...
I tried to wrap it. I didn’t do a very good job, I think I’ll take the wrap off and probably just use plasti dip. All the red pieces come off easily with just a few bolts.
Fantastic video. I've watched a couple others and they too were great. I love the aesthetics of your bike. Your mods really improved the look of an already great looking bike. I have a deposit on a 2023 Orange Trident. Hopefully it will be here sooner than later as we are running out of riding weather in the near future. Also have EvoTech parts (thanks for your video on them) on order. Frame sliders, axle sliders, radiator guard and bobbins. May get the shorty levers later. I am going to need a paddock stand. Question....which paddock stand do you use? Do you recommend that one? This is my second bike and for the 3000 miles I rode my first bike (Honda Rebel 500) I pushed it around the driveway trying to clean and lube the chain. PITA!! Not doing that again. I test rode 4 bikes this summer and loved all so it was a tough decision. I'm 5'7" w/ short legs and this seat height made me a bit nervous before the test ride and I almost skipped over this bike as I am on the balls of my feet. Test rode it in ROAD mode and found it surprisingly easier than I anticipated but I may ride mine in RAIN mode for at least the first ride to see if I still feel that way. I loved the handling, throttle, clutch, motor, transmission and that sound even with the stock exhaust. Because of all that I can see that this bike could easily encourage me to ride beyond my skill level so I'll have to consider that before every ride.
I’m torn. I like this bike based on reviews but I just sold my 2013 Ducati monster 796 after having it for nearly 10 years and worry I’ll regret buying trident over another monster. I regret selling it but was looking at the trident 660 as a new bike. Any opinions on going to this trident from a monster? I see mostly people talking about going up to this bike but not much about coming down. Thanks!
That is a tough one! The Ducati Monster is such a beast, I really like it. Aesthetically the monster is a modern naked and the trident is a neo-retro naked imo, and it’s sort of subjective which look your going for. But as far as power I feel like trident is a rocket still! it’s plenty fast on the freeway and it has great low end acceleration around town. My only gripe is I wish first gear was a little longer.
Is that zard exhaust a full exhaust? I'm contemplating getting a slip on, but I'm not sure if it makes that much of difference for the engine note one way or the other.
It’s a full exhaust. The cat is one piece on the stock pipes, I don’t think there is anyway someone could make a slip on for our bike. You just have to get the full set up.
Ive been watching your Trident videos and you made me decide to purchase rhe Zard! And I am really amazed how you DIY the accessories knowing this is your first bike! :) I just have one odd question, do you happen to know what are the dimensions I needed if I install a baffle for the Zard with dB killer on it? db killer is still loud for me.
Thanks Ed! Glad you have enjoyed the series. I ordered mine already with db killer so I’m not sure of the dimensions sorry. What do you need measurements of I can go and try measure it on my bike. If not hopefully Zard can answer that question for you.
@@halohalohikers3571 I have already measured it myself but still thank you for the update! Hey, ur channel name is really catchy! “Halo-halo” is a delicious snack desert “mixed fruits, beans, etc, ice and milk” her in Philippines :)
Very Great Review .... 👍 Hi, I am From INDIA and i brought this beautiful machine in May2022 and im having Overheat issue so I have one question for you dose your Trident overheats regularly in traffic or hot sunny day riding ?
I rode it every day during the summer, sometimes in 100+ degrees and did have any huge concerns. It runs hot as far as the temp gauge especially during the summer. Only once I have had a warning light and the engine decreased power because of overheating. And if I remember correctly it was during the break in period. What issues are you experiencing?
@@halohalohikers3571 oh okay thanks I see it now especially in the first shot in the video where you're on the bike. I think I thought in your garage i was seeing glare from the light outside. Looks great and how it should've came stock 😄 by the way this is my first bike and I'm loving it. Cheers
@@lifelivedfuller2388 no worries! Yea man once I switched to the carbon fiber and starting switching parts out, the bright chrome rear set starting drawing my eye more and more. It was a quick and easy 2-3 hour project.
Why is everyone so concerned about MPG on a Motorcycle,?? Who cares, it’s a luxury item, to play with and Ride, You need gas,??, just get it , Who gives a shit 🤷🏻♂️ I have a 2021 R9T, and next week, I’ll have a 2023 Trident in Blaze Orange 👍, 2 Nice bikes, and I haven’t thought about MPG once in the 40+ yrs I’m riding.
The front fenders are the trickiest part because the adhesive accent itself doesn’t come off of the fender well. But taking the parts off the bike and powder coating would be pretty easy. I ordered some aftermarket replacements for those pieces that are supposed to arrive in the next week, I’ll post a video for that install.
@@halohalohikers3571 that's the problem it's hard to find them here in Texas where I live without driving hours to go sit on one I'm seriously considering this as my first bike I know it'll suck when I inevitably drop it but I can just have it fixed I'd rather start with this than a little 250 I'd get board of quick
@@cloroxbleach3367 oh I see! Another thing to consider is that first maintenance is required at the dealership and likely will need to go back each year for the first few years for oil changes, just to ensure you don’t void your warranty. Might be something to consider if the dealership is extremely far!
@@halohalohikers3571 oh that's something I didn't even think about thank you for bringing that up! What's your average fuel mileage? I'm not to worried about that thought sense it'd be more for running around on the weekends or if I'm going somewhere after work I'm assuming the tank will last awhile unless I do some spirited riding
@@cloroxbleach3367 Triumph claims 60mpg on the tridents 3.5 gallon tank should be around 180 miles. But I ride city daily commutes and I get about 120 miles per tank, when the light comes on. Always less than $20 to fill.
Are you thinking of purchasing the Trident as your first motorcycle? Did you purchase it already as a first timer? Let me hear your experiences.

Because some people use their motorcycles to travel long distances. So people want to calculate how far they can travel on a single tank of gas.

How much is the exhaust?
Could you have powder coated the parts you wrapped instead...if you didn't want them a certain color obviously.

It’s a Zard exhaust. I have an install video on my page a few videos back. You can order directly from their website.
@@halohalohikers3571 thank you for answering, did you get any check engine light after you installed the exhaust?
@@enigmajourney6367 no check engine lights, everything is running smooth!
I'm 5'3 how would I fit on this thing
I’m 5’10” for reference! I’m not sure though best bet would be to go sit on one!
@@halohalohikers3571 that's the problem it's hard to find them here in Texas where I live without driving hours to go sit on one I'm seriously considering this as my first bike I know it'll suck when I inevitably drop it but I can just have it fixed I'd rather start with this than a little 250 I'd get board of quick
@@cloroxbleach3367 oh I see! Another thing to consider is that first maintenance is required at the dealership and likely will need to go back each year for the first few years for oil changes, just to ensure you don’t void your warranty. Might be something to consider if the dealership is extremely far!
@@halohalohikers3571 oh that's something I didn't even think about thank you for bringing that up! What's your average fuel mileage? I'm not to worried about that thought sense it'd be more for running around on the weekends or if I'm going somewhere after work I'm assuming the tank will last awhile unless I do some spirited riding
@@cloroxbleach3367 Triumph claims 60mpg on the tridents 3.5 gallon tank should be around 180 miles. But I ride city daily commutes and I get about 120 miles per tank, when the light comes on. Always less than $20 to fill.
Is this with db killer?
Yes mine has the DB killer still
No USB charger?
No USB charger. There is an adapter you can add to the fuse box under the seat I believe.
Hi. The first service (1000 kmt or 600 miles) is for free or pay the service? Tky
I paid for mine. Your dealership might be different. I have a video about my first service experience if you would be interested in watching.
