Triumph Trident 660
The Triumph Trident 660 was introduced in 2021 as an entry-level middleweight roadster, reviving the iconic Trident nameplate last used in the 1970s. It was designed to offer an accessible gateway into the Triumph lineup, featuring a sporty yet approachable triple-cylinder engine derived from the Street Triple platform. The Trident 660 quickly gained popularity for its blend of classic Triumph styling, strong performance credentials, and competitive pricing in the A2 licence-friendly segment.

What Buyers Should Know
Inline-3 Engine Advantage
The 660cc triple-cylinder engine offers a unique blend of twin-like torque and four-cylinder smoothness, making it unusually versatile for its class. It produces 81hp with strong mid-range pull that rivals outperform on paper but rarely match in real-world rideability.
Watch the Throttle Bodies
Some early 2021-2022 owners reported rough idle and hesitation linked to throttle body sync issues, often resolved with a dealer software update or manual sync. Always test ride at low speeds and check for service history before buying used.
Strong Resale Holds
The Trident 660 retains resale value well compared to Japanese competitors, largely due to brand prestige and limited used supply. A well-maintained example typically sells for 80-85% of MSRP within the first two years.
