Triumph Trident 660

@ajc400 Yes the 660 i had seemed to use oil. No visible just seemed to use it.

 

Never had an issue on the 660 Trident. Done 10K km now. Never used a drop of oil.

 

That's good news. But Triumph i believe were straight on the case

 

Just curious..what didn't she like about the Striple 765 and why is the Trident preferred?

 

The weights of the bikes are pretty much identical I think, the Street does feel quite top - heavy though when you move it around. Quite a few people seem to swap their Streets for Tridents - being a hardcore Street fan I couldn't imagine it but the Trident does seem a great bike and certainly does look nice (I really like the Slippery Sam tribute, but they do some great colours I think). I'd certainly miss the horsepower though, it's a big difference.

 

That was the worry I had I was going to go for a new trident but after a few litre sports bikes I thought the same that it would be a noticeable drop so I did it gradually and went for the 900 Tiger but now I'm seeing all these Bonneville's yes I'm blaming you Tony I am getting the itch to add one to my garage now but I fancy a pre injection model or an America or legend

 

I do like the idea of a relaxed day out type bike to just cruise along and enjoy. I can do that on all of mine of course, but they do egg you on a bit .

 

Yes they look so shiny

 

You can blame me Mark, I can take it. Been blamed for worse. I had the speedmaster, (Woods that was) lovely bike, eye candy. Not good for my back. T.

 

@Mrs Visor How about one of each. Just sell @Helmut Visor's and treat your self. You can always take him as pillion.

 

Haha, never in a million years bud we need a bigger garage first

 

I'd probably spend all my time on the rear wheel with the weight and size difference .

 

@Helmut Visor Just trying to please you're good lady. But concede you are not going pillion ant time soon

 

@Mrs Visor Not taking this further. Helmut might come hunting for me. And i thought you spent a lot of time on the back wheel anyway.
