Catteeclan Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Triumph are making some good looking bikes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooN Posted November 13, 2020 Author Share Posted November 13, 2020 they also appear to be relatively honest about what they're for, i mean they openly admit that this one is aimed at newer riders, getting them into the Triumph brand. I have seen soooo many makers trying to convince us that their bike is perfect for beginners but so technologically advanced that it's also perfect for advanced riders and race circuits if you just change the exhaust pipe and RTW trips if you just nail some panniers on the back and stunters if you take the lights off etc etc etc. this presentation at least seems to be fairly upfront about what this bike is for. I like that. Not sure about the pillion seat though... but as with the truncated rear end, it's down to aesthetics i suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTreme Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I'm not a fan of manufacturers trying to cash in on legendary names from the past......especially when they bear no resemblance to the original. This is a real Trident! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boboneleg Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I saw a different review on that new Trident and I have to say that I was impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catteeclan Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I'd put up with the lack of pillion as it looks so good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
