The Triumph Trident 660 draws power from a BS6-compliant 660cc inline, 3-cylinder mill that delivers 80hp of power at 10,250rpm and 64Nm of peak torque at 6,250rpm. The motor comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox with an assist-and-slipper clutch.

Dual-channel ABS ensures safety of the rider
For the rider's safety, the Triumph Trident 660 is equipped with disc brakes on both the front and rear wheels, along with dual-channel ABS and switchable traction control for better handling on the roads.
