Triumph Trident 660 vs 800 — Which One Should You Actually Buy?

On paper, the 800 is the clear upgrade—but after riding both, it’s not that simple. In this video I compare the Triumph Trident 660 and 800 back-to-back, covering performance, handling, riding modes, suspension and more. The 660 is seriously good… so is the 800 actually worth the extra? 0:00 Introduction 0:33 Key differences 1:39 Looks 2:24 Engine and transmission 5:25 Chassis and handling 7:55 Steel swingarm 8:43 Ergonomics 10:13 Display and menus 12:17 Ownership costs 12:33 Summary and which one would I buy?
