I have a 2022 trident 660, and I’d love the extra 17% power and 8% torque. Are these future aftermarket mods that us original 660 owners can get? Because, at the moment, exhaust and flash tune is all we get, and we’d be lucky to get 5hp out of these combined.

I had a 1992 CBR600F2 back in the day, and I was not a beginning rider. It was a great size for me. Powerful. Great handling. Affordable. I even did some moderate sport touring on it. It was a great size for on-the-road sporty riding, and plenty fast enough. About 100 HP, 450 lbs. I can only imagine that the Triumph would work, only better. By the way, I was in my late 40s in the early 90s. Now, I get by on a nice quick-for-me BMW and a sporty Triumph Thruxton. But, if I could roll the clock back, I’d be looking at this 660!

Pretty awesome looking motorcycle. Wonder how it wills stack up agains all the Japanese sport-bikes out there. Perhaps they aren’t really going after the 600cc sport bike class?

Very forward thinking, bikes and the tech have come so far that manufacturers have lost sight of the reason so many of us began to ride, the freedom and enjoyment of two wheels. The tech is great for those who want to listen to music and phone calls and have navigation on the bike, with many ride modes for traction control and throttle response and ABS . There are also people that just want to ride a quality, safe, comfortable and capable motorcycle. Some riders are looking for less tech, displacement and weight. Triumph seems to be listening to these riders and I applaud the recognition.

I for one think it’s great that Triumph is making active inroads to appeal to and be accessible for newer riders. For a long time, I think they have been gatekeeping themselves from certain demographics because of the prices and engine sizes; their smallest engine size for years was a 900cc parallel twin. Which was not a wild machine or anything, but for newer riders (in the USA) under the age of 25 the insurance for such a bike could often be brutal. (I sell motorcycles)

This bike, on paper a fantastic addition to the midsize supersport market, and their new 400’s, likewise priced and built out for beginning or price conscious customers, shows Triumph is thinking about and preparing for the future.

Happy to see it!
