Triumph Motorcycles has introduced a special edition of the Trident 660, and this one celebrates the brand’s impressive five victories at the legendary Isle of Man TT. Along with a fresh tri-colour paint scheme, the bike also gets a few additional features that make it stand out from the standard version.
Design
This limited-run Trident 660 grabs attention with its special paint job. The colourway includes a clean base white with bold metallic blue stripes and streaks of red, giving it a sporty, race-inspired look. The combination is more than just a cosmetic tweak—it’s a visual nod to Triumph’s racing legacy.
Apart from the striking livery, Triumph has added a factory-fitted flyscreen and a belly pan to the package. These parts are usually optional on the regular Trident 660, so having them as standard gives this edition a slightly more complete and aggressive look.
Features
The special edition Trident 660 also comes equipped with shift assist as standard. This feature enables clutchless upshifts and downshifts, improving the overall riding experience, especially in city traffic and spirited riding.
Other tech remains unchanged from the standard model. You get a full-colour TFT screen with smartphone integration, dual-channel ABS, traction control, and two ride modes—Rain and Road. It’s a well-rounded package that already offers solid value, and these additions just sweeten the deal further.
Engine
Mechanically, the special edition is identical to the regular Trident 660. It’s powered by a 660cc inline-three engine that puts out 80bhp and 64Nm of peak torque. The power delivery is smooth and refined, striking a nice balance between performance and everyday usability.
The engine is paired to a six-speed gearbox and now benefits from the standard quickshifter setup. So, while performance figures remain the same, the added convenience makes a noticeable difference for riders who like a more dynamic feel.
Hardware
Under the bodywork, the chassis setup continues unchanged. The bike uses a tubular steel frame with a 41mm Showa USD fork at the front and a preload-adjustable monoshock at the rear. The braking system includes twin 310mm discs up front and a single 255mm disc at the rear.

India Launch
Currently, the standard Triumph Trident 660 is priced from ₹8.25 lakh (ex-showroom). If Triumph decides to bring this special edition to India, expect a modest premium over the base model. Given the added equipment and unique paint job, the special edition could appeal to buyers who want exclusivity with a dash of racing heritage.
