TRIUMPH TRIDENT REVIEW! | Onboard, Walkaround, Twisty Roads & Commuting!

[@edwilliams5417]

Those roads near lincoln are a good laugh to ride. Nice review. Love my Trident.

[@robertpommer8443]

One of the best reviews on a bike I’ve seen. To the point, none of these spec Videos just fun. Impressive

[@harrishenrikoukialis1539]

One of the best reviews on the trident so far in the web. Thank you Eddie, am expecting mine early September and you have summed up quite well, all the info I already researched on the bike. The shots on the bike are excellent too.

[@watertails]

Excellent video and review - refreshing for a reviewer to give it a proper ride over a decent distance too 😊

[@EddieSetGo]

Thanks Mark! :) Really enjoyed making this video 🏍

[@Duelweb]

Man, this was an in depth and great review! I have just subscribed!

[@ijelic1604]

Great review, thank you, and the bike just looks nuts! 😅

[@MrLou8888]

Always look forward to your reviews. Especially on bikes that interest me.

[@EddieSetGo]

Thanks very much, Louis. I hope you like the video! :)

[@al-habeeb9969]

One of the best and detailed review of the Trident so far. Thanks to you for that.

[@EddieSetGo]

Thank you very much. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@ruahinesrider]

I got one 6weeks ago & ordered it with Quick Shifter & bobbins & Triumph Frame Sliders.Since then put Evotech Radiator guard on & Powerbronze headlight cover & got a Evotech tail tidy too. Great bike.

[@jadonx]

Hi how was the tail tidy to fit? I get my matt orange trident on Friday

[@andrewwhite271]

Great review Eddie , got mine in April the Matt black one , I agree with everything you said.

[@rainvioletsky]

Subscribed just for the channel name ! Fabulous review - Thank you so much for all the effort.

[@EddieSetGo]

Thank you very much Varun! :) I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@cedriccanonici277]

I have tried this bike few month ago...is magic ! 🤩And I m not a beginer or a new rider. But I don't understand the choice of a 180 rear tyre on this bike...I think a 160 would be enough and even if the Trident is flickable and nimble, the fun factor would be even better with a 160 rear😀 For example, the 1200 speed twin got a 160...and is heavier and powerfull. I m wondering beetween this two bikes to replace perhaps my 900 RS 😉

[@mark3863]

WOW! Now that's how you review a bike, thanks Eddie.

[@EddieSetGo]

Haha thanks Mark! Had a great time making it :)

[@davexs]

Great grass roots review, very eloquently described. Got a real feel and flavour for the bike. Subbed you now.

[@straightup1234]

Great looking bike looking fwd to seeing in the flesh! Again great review Eddie

[@EddieSetGo]

Thanks Jamie! :)

[@ianhughesroyalenfield]

Just found this as I might just be interested in a Trident, so nice to see someone else who test rides a bike like I do 😉.

[@grizzlystr3445]

Great review. I took Webbs demo bike out whilst my 675r was in for service & loved it. Definitely on my short list as 675 getting a little too cramped. Got to love those Lincolnshire back roads 👍

[@jean-yveslegall2562]

I thought about getting this model, this bike is so cute !! I love the way you introduce this bike, you tell us a real story !

[@deepfishfryerpagel8656]

Nice review! Thank you! Definitely considering this bike!

[@EddieSetGo]

Thank you! It’s an awesome bike. So much fun!

[@mrsilbo6499]

Glad the white SUV at 11:14 didn't pull out, Eddie - they certainly thought about it! This bike is lovely apart from the mudguards. The front one is ridiculously short & doesn't keep any muck off - look at the stripe up the middle of the rad. And the rear mudguard hanger assembly not only looks horrible IMO, but other KZbinrs have reported it doesn't keep the wet off the bike or your back! Fix those two issues, Triumph and I'm in.

[@EddieSetGo]

Yeah the mudguards are a little 'decorative' Hugh, aren't they! I didn't get a chance to really ride it in the wet. The rear guard is nice from the side, but does look a little weird when riding behind one. I prefer my mudguards/plate higher up the back!

[@johnboy10]

Fantastic review Eddie!! I have had one on order since March 3rd, hopefully, it will arrive soon. Your review has reassured me I have made the right move. I also added the quick shifter to my order. Thanks again.

[@EddieSetGo]

Great to hear John, and thanks for the feedback buddy, that's much appriciated! Yeah, the quickshifter would have been awesome. I love the QS on my MT09!

[@unkindguy88]

I am very torn between this bike and the yamaha mt09 sp. I know the yamaha is much better but then again I can save a little bit money if I go for the trident and just invest the remaining money on something else, that is the only reason why I am considering the trident is because of the price. I am upgrading from a ninja 400. I will be using the motorcycle mainly for commute on the freeway doing 80-85mph, 40 mins each way, no track days, will only be my one and only bike. Please advise, knowing you have the mt09sp too. I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

[@seeker1432]

That's a heck of a statement considering i doubt you ever rode one. Why better ?. Personally I wouldnt buy a bike I'm not happy with. Not much cash then buy a 500 Honda or something if you cant afford much. Why buy a bike you believe you dont like

[@unkindguy88]

@@seeker1432 thats one hell of a statement too. I like both bike that's why I am having a hard time choosing both. You seem to misunderstand my question.

[@Cartsp70]

@@unkindguy88different bikes , try both and see how you get on, the Triumph is a bit gutless but it’s still fun 🤩

[@tonydare7614]

Great review. Nice to hear someone really enjoying the ride rather than saying it's a beginner's bike. I test rode one in Paris and loved it, so much so that I've ordered one. I think that the limitations are not down to the bike these days, but more the speed limits, traffic and roads. Unfortunately I"ve got to go far to enjoy any twisties!

[@jadonx]

Definitely not a beginner bike unless they restrict it. I'm trading my Royal enfield meteor in for a trident 660. The meteor I would call a beginner bike.

[@Fee.1]

Can you rotate it on the stand? I struggle to.

[@chrisclemin1971]

Great review thanks

[@johnschlesinger2009]

Thanks for a great review of a really attractive bike.

[@c.g.c2067]

Beautiful design the Trident

[@pauledwards4472]

Great riding and great review

[@jay-1]

Been thinking of getting this one as my first bike after that review. I Think we live in the same village so I’ll give you the bike nod when I see you 😆

[@pob4781]

Yesterday i have bought mine. It will be at home on february 2022. I can't wait !!!! 😭😀👍🏻

[@LoneCl0ne]

Do you still have it? How is it so far?

[@pob4781]

@@LoneCl0ne After 3 years, no problems. I am very happy with this bike !

[@OsBMXandHotrods]

How does it compare to the street twin? Have had one on order for a bit and getting impatient. Lol. Dealer has 3 street twins in stock. Thanks and great video.

[@taielshivlani6599]

Beautiful Video!

[@tlong9812]

Really solid review. You seemed to totally love it. Funny you mentioned the street twin. It’s between trident and street twin. Very different look between the two. But both pull me in a strong way. Will have to test them soon. If you had to pick for first bike. Which would it be and why.

[@EddieSetGo]

Thank you very much. I really enjoyed making the Trident review and it really lived up to the hype. This or the Street Twin - it's a tough choice! There's something special about the Street Twin though... it's a timeless looking bike with so many mod options.

[@tlong9812]

@@EddieSetGo thanks Eddie. Damn you’re making it hard for me. Ill test em both.

[@tlong9812]

@@EddieSetGo one last question. Did the street twin feel it had enough punch. I like torque off the line. And as punchy as trident?

[@1990-t1j]

Good review of a bike that I'm interested in. Is it more tractable than the MT-07? Nice jacket, as well. What is it, please?

[@kieransheehan3001]

Would this bike be ideal for a total newbie (38 years old)

[@Fee.1]

Can you get a street triple and ride both and detail the power differences

[@JIMWSMITH]

Lovely review... I am having one..

[@EddieSetGo]

Thank you, and congrats Jim! What colour are you going for? ;)

[@TheAusherGuy]

Can it power wheelie easily when you get on it?

[@eletaone]

I am looking to buy one of these as my first bike but having been to the Triumph garage I am worried that I will be too big for it - 6ft 2, 17 stone

[@andreavanella2523]

How speed indicated?

[@markjones3551]

Fantastic review like all the rest you’ve done…..started watching you as Im interested in the mt09sp but now you’ve got me interested in this aswell…. Already have the Z900rs,Hayabusa and the Tenere700 ….thinking of changing the Tenere for the Mt09sp next spring but think I might have to give this one a test ride now aswell👍🏻

[@Fee.1]

What helmet mount do you use?

[@EddieSetGo]

I'm using a simple GoPro helmet mount and GoPro attachments :)

[@calvinbarriga195]

Mine makes me smile.

[@EddieSetGo]

Thats what a bike should do! :)

[@Jachie3883]

great bike! what jacket is it?

[@EddieSetGo]

It's the Richa Daytona ;)

[@jonnyfications]

Good work Eddie! 👍

[@Fee.1]

Session 5? How do you like it?

[@EddieSetGo]

Yeah it's okay. It's dated now and only shoots in 1080p. I'd like to upgrade soon to a 4k camera but for "facing shots" it does the job very well! You can get some bargains on Ebay for the Session 5.

[@Fee.1]

I wish there was a RS with the 675

[@michaeljohnson2922]

For us older fellas, which is more comfortable between the Trident and the MT-09?

[@robin46]

YT: how many ads do you want to put in the video? Channel: Yes

[@rafaelcordoba13]

I still can't decide between the Trident and the Street Triple R... :|

[@exexpat11]

This is what Harley was going for with the 500 and 750 Street and missed the mark.

[@ashleyhazell662]

Street Twin > Trident 660 for me I'm afraid. I've heard too many bad things about that laggy, disconnected throttle. On another note, can you let me know which jacket you're wearing in this vid? Looks sweet!

[@donbassdonbass7935]

Классный мотик!

[@Nutter1138]

Excellent. Also, nice legs

[@EddieSetGo]

Thanks 😅

[@MartinDoubek_ArnieX]

You should get your wife/girlfriend better motorcycle boots :D, I know skin provides best protection, but it's better not to be your own skin :D

[@EddieSetGo]

Ahh she does have proper boots and clothing :) Never go riding without wearing proper gear!

[@MartinDoubek_ArnieX]

@@EddieSetGo :D not in 3:35, well except for the helmet ;). Nice video thought. But I'm not surprised that you ended up with MT-09 SP, it will probably be my exact route as well. Started with thoughts about Honda CB650R, then Triumph Trident (too hard and stiff to my liking), MT-07 but I hopped on MT-09 and couldn't go back and now because there are not standard version in stock anywhere, well not soon enough. I will probably end up with MT-09 SP. Which is actually a good thing :D

[@clivecartey]

Silly whooping sounds, engine thrashing and down-shifting, badly, to 2nd for a bend you could take in 4th. This 'review' doesn't tell me anything about the bike and more about the reviewer. 'TRIUMPH' take note. At 7.07 I couldn't bear listening to the far too low down-shifting and pointless engine thrashing anymore. All rather immature really....."loads of grunt, blimey" ...appalling !

[@1ridgy]

Well put together video which would have been very informative eight months ago when everyone else reviewed it. Sorry Eddie but unfortunately too repetitive to be news.

[@EddieSetGo]

Yeah I can appriciate that buddy. It's a shame I couldn't get hold of one sooner, but it was still great to ride and a fun video to make. Fingers crossed I can get access to more fresh machinery for you :)
