It now comes equipped with premium suspension componentry, six-axis IMU and has new colours.
The Triumph Trident 660 has received its first mid-life update. The latest additions have not just made the bike look better than before, Triumph has also gone ahead and standardised a bunch of features which were earlier available as options – thus making the neo-roadster a proper reckoner in the middleweight segment.
For its heart, the 2025 Triumph Trident 660 retains the same, punchy 660cc inline-triple engine, still delivering a spirited 81 bhp and 64 Nm. However, Triumph has now standardised its bidirectional quickshifter – dubbed Triumph Shift Assist – a welcome addition that should make the already slick 6-speed gearbox even more engaging.
The headline upgrade has to be the inclusion of a six-axis IMU which further brings cornering ABS and lean-sensitive traction control to the Trident 660 as standard. Triumph has also expanded the bike’s riding modes, adding a new 'Sport' option alongside the existing Road and Rain modes, giving riders a more thrilling experience with the bike.
In the suspension department, the 2025 Triumph Trident 660 now gets a new Showa SFF-BP (Separate Function Fork-Big Piston) fork, paired with a new forged aluminium triple clamp. These changes, combined with subtle geometry adjustments – a 6mm shorter wheelbase and a slightly sharper rake (from 23.9 to 24.6 degrees) – suggest a more agile handling character. The handlebar is now 5 mm wider, and that should likely offer better leverage during city manoeuvres. Weight gain has been kept to a minimum – just 1kg, bringing the wet weight to 190kg. The accessible 805 mm seat height remains unchanged, maintaining the Trident's reputation as a welcoming option for riders buying their first big capacity bike.
Feature-wise, Bluetooth connectivity has been standardised as well. Thereby enabling turn-by-turn navigation and smartphone notifications. However, it's worth noting that TPMS and a USB-C charger remain optional extras. And last but not the least, Triumph has introduced three new colours, namely, Cosmic Yellow, Cobalt Blue, and Diablo Red.
For the Indian market, where the updated model is already listed on Triumph's website, the launch is anticipated in early 2025. Pricing will be crucial – the current Trident 660 is quite well-positioned at ₹8.25 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). Given the updates that the new 2025 iteration of the neo roadster will launch, a moderate increase of around ₹20,000-₹25,000 is our estimate.
