The Trident is far from the "most boring motorcycle ever." Low down torque with the "triple" smooth power in the mid and upper ranges! Nice build and looks too! In my opinion, Triumph did an excellent job attracting riders new and experienced to the brand with this roadster.

[@uncoiledfish2561]

This guy rides a 1000cc bike so often it's become normal to him. For those types it would be boring.

[@orangesonicc]

Rode both the trident and the street triple, but the street triple is so much better is hard to justify the trident beside it being a cheap version of a street triple with a tune down engine😅

[@ManuelPaulo13]

@@orangesonicc the street triple might be a litle too much for a brand new rider. Not to mention that depending on the country, the couple grand price difference can be quite significant. Yes you did touch on the "cheaper" point, but it's quite the price diference, percentage wise.

Went from a grom to a trident for my first big bike and it’s amazing for beginners. Kept it in rain mode until I got used to the power. Now I have a full exhaust and it’s broken in. Bike is amazing

I just picked up a 2023 Trident! I love mine. It's my second bike and I'm coming from a CB300r. I love how smooth it is and that weird sound the i3 makes! I'm still in the break in, but so far, so good!

[@Nogitsune_Yako]

U deserve a slap for calling this bike boring...

[@gswcowboy]

LMAO... u gonna let that go adobo?

[@schorschels]

The „special“ sound on the 675 comes from the straight cut gears on the balancing shaft (less power losses), either you love it or hate it. I think it sounds kinda cool like a jet turbine of some sort but regardless of the sound the performance is really something else for the cc the bike has, 80% of the torque comes on at 4000 rpm and you can wind the shit out of the bike till around 14000 rpm and the cherry on top the bike weighs around 180 kg (400 lbs) Don’t come at me I’m just simping a lil 💪🏽

[@mattlindsey9242]

The sound goes away if you ride it at 8k or higher plus that intake sound when you really go. We're multi simping

[@Rubenenmoto]

Man, I think is not an issue with the bike, I think the issue is with the roads. You are testing a bike that was specifically designed to be light and agile in Europe's twists in the infinite american straight roads. The only think you can do is to accelerate and break under strong sun, it is normal that you get bored 😂 Get some mountains there! hehe great content, regards!

I've ridden the Trident before and agree that she's definitely a beginner-friendly bike. Sorry, but the sweet whine of that triple is music to me. Same thing with the Street Triple R & RS.

[@declanhedges]

Ridden one of these at work with a slip-on + decat + standard quickshifter and the bike sounds amazing when you rev it out , they come very suppressed from factory. Waiting for the day one comes in with a full system can't imagine what it would sound like for a "beginner" bike.

[@matt59fire]

To me there's no point in pouring the much money into it when your just going to sell it at 10,000 miles

[@wlt3585]

The rate of people starting on these, riding them for several thousand miles, and them trading them in for a Street Triple has been noticeably high. I wonder if thats why they put them relatively close in price, the street triple isnt much of a financial jump but its a significant jump in bikes​@@matt59fire

[@asiagobagel8293]

Every time I get on this bike, the first thing I do is turn off Traction Control. Completely different feel and harder, smoother acceleration. I've seen a test where they were getting > 4 sec 0-60mph times with TC on and around 3.4 seconds with it turned off. It's a very restrictive TC and also seems to be the reason for the "laggy" throttle in my experience. Oh, and make sure you're in Road mode. It's an absolute blast around 45-60mph roads and city streets.

[@thomasthrasher6331]

It's a great bike.

[@CarlosEchanove]

The trident comes with a rain mode, which tames the low torque a lot, wonder if your friend had it on rain mode not realised. Ask him to test it on a nice twisty road, you might change your mind

[@thisguy9458]

yeah I forgot Americans have terribly boring roads, straight as fuck, this bike would be awesome to take on the roads in the Scottish highlands, just full leaning from one side to another on the twisties

[@simoneliberti9641]

the Triumph makes much more sense here in Europe where that kind of modern-vintage design is appreciated, we live in small villages with narrow streets and to move fron a village to nanother we have fun twisty roads, the natural habitat of thse kinda bikes

[@JMZM7907]

It needs an exhaust and a tune. That will make it completely different bike and pull out what it needs. There is a lot of potential in the bike that you have to pull out, like that ZX 4RR. Remember, this is a Euro bike, so it has the Euro restrictions in it.

[@adobomoto]

That’s what I thought too..stated it in the video

[@JMZM7907]

@@adobomoto ... you did, I was only restating your point and then giving context as to why there is a need for the tune. It has to do with Euro requirements. Also, I rode one with a tune, its completely different bike.

[@Bungalow86]

I have a 23 trident (beginner here) and have already done a TEC exhaust, Triumph Quickshifter, and DNK tune. It is so night and day (especially the tune) in how it rides, in a good way. And sounds fantastic with an exhaust! I will have some fun on this thing for a good long while. Also, wide open I pulled my buddies 07 CBR600RR down the road through the top of 5th, then the RPMs and extra hp on his CBR started pulling past me.. Its no slouch for the money and size!

[@quacktac]

I had one as my first bike and it was wonderful, very far from boring. With respect you're riding the bike on dead straight roads, which is going to be boring on any bike.

hey i had a question so i have an fz07 and i was trying to ride it with track boots on or whatever you call em and for some reason my bike is having a ton of trouble upshifting when i wear them i will position my foot the same everytime i go to upshift and from first to 2nd its butter smooth but its not wanting to shift up in 3rd and sometimes 4th im having to like force it into the gear by pulling really hard which i do not like doing and will probably harm the bike and ive adjusted the lever position multiple times and its still happening. When i wear normal shoes i never have any issues with changing gears so i was curious if maybe that style of boots are not suited for the bike or if im just somehow doing something wrong

[@chrisduda]

No point in upgrading it. Just buy a Street Triple. That's what I did. lol
