Updated 660cc triple engine
Both the Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660 benefit from the higher-performance version of Triumph’s 660cc Triple, achieved through a series of mechanical changes and a new engine tune. Peak power is now 94 HP at 11,250 rpm, an increase of 13.8 HP, with the redline raised by 20% to 12,650 rpm for a livelier top end. Torque also sees an uplift to 50.2 ft-lb (68 Nm) at 8,250 rpm, with 80% of that available from 3,000 rpm right through to almost 12,000 rpm, ensuring strong and flexible performance across the rev range.
The performance upgrades are complemented by a series of key component revisions. The exhaust system now features a 3-into-1 header design with a revised catalyst and an underslung silencer, contributing to both efficiency and the distinctive Triple sound.
TRIDENT 660 – TRIPLE THE THRILL
The new Trident 660 combines thrilling performance, agile handling, rider-focused technology, and distinctive muscular styling with a class-leading low cost of ownership – making it the perfect entry point to the Triumph family.
Muscular Stance Meets Premium Finish
The 2026 Trident 660 introduces new bodywork and styling updates that give the bike a more muscular stance and athletic attitude. There is a redesigned, wider fuel tank with chiseled knee cut-outs, and a new split rider and passenger seat, with a new accessory seat cowl for solo riders. The updated headlight mount and new headlight enhance the bike’s presence. Riders can further personalize their Trident with accessory options such as a color-coded fly screen or bar-end mirrors.
Attention to detail is evident throughout, with subtle Triumph branding on the handlebar clamp, fuel cap, and integrated into the headlight and taillight. Cables and hoses are neatly hidden for a clean, premium finish.
Revised Frame and Premium Suspension
The Trident 660 retains its agile, confidence-inspiring handling, now enhanced with chassis updates for 2026. A revised frame and new Showa rear suspension unit with preload and rebound adjustment join the premium Showa 1.61 in. (41mm) USD big piston forks at the front, delivering 4.72 in. (120mm) of travel. At the rear, the new RSU offers 5.12 in. (130mm) of travel and improved adjustability, allowing riders to fine-tune their setup for a sportier roadster ride.
Lightweight cast aluminum wheels and Michelin Road 5 tires provide excellent grip and feedback in all conditions, while twin 12.2 in. (310mm) discs with two-piston Nissin calipers deliver strong, predictable braking performance. Braided brake lines and a span-adjustable brake lever ensure consistent feel and control.
Natural ergonomics make the Trident 660 easy to ride at any speed. A low seat height of 31.89 in. (810mm) and slim stand-over aid slow-speed maneuvers, while new wider handlebars for 2026 offer greater leverage and comfort. Combined with the bike’s low wet weight of 429.9lb (195kg), these updates reinforce the Trident’s reputation for agility and rider confidence.
Connectivity and Convenience Built In
The Trident 660 is equipped with a comprehensive suite of rider-focused technology designed to enhance safety, convenience, and connectivity. Ride-by-wire throttle enables three riding modes, Sport, Road and Rain, each optimizing throttle response, ABS, and traction control settings for different conditions.

Triumph Shift Assist allows clutchless up and down shifts, while cruise control is fitted as standard, making longer rides more comfortable.
The instrument setup combines a color TFT display with an LCD screen, delivering clear, easy-to-read information.

Full LED lighting, including the new headlight design, ensures excellent visibility and a distinctive look.

Enhanced Presence for Every Adventure
New bodywork enhances the Tiger Sport’s presence, with a more substantial front end and angular side profile, creating clean lines and that distinctive sporty style. New radiator cowls and a refined front-end design improve weather protection and comfort. The larger 4.9 gal (18.6-liter) fuel tank increases range for longer adventures, while the adjustable windscreen can be easily adjusted with one hand, taking the height from 51.65 in. (1312mm) to 54.92 in. (1395mm). Accessory options such as heated grips and handguards provide additional comfort in challenging conditions.
