1. 798 cc triple engine

Powering the Trident 800 is a Tiger 800-derived 798 cc inline three-cylinder engine that produces around 115 PS at 10,750 rpm and 84 Nm of torque at 8,500 rpm. When compared to the Street Triple R, power is reduced by 5 PS but torque output increases by 4 Nm. The motor is paired with a six-speed gearbox and a bi-directional quickshifter. Triumph has completely re-engineered the exhaust system, so it is now mounted on the right side instead of under the belly on the Trident 660.

2. Advanced chassis and hardware

The Trident 800 features a steel perimeter frame designed for agile handling and stability, making it suitable for both daily riding and spirited weekend racing. The bike features Showa 41 mm upside-down forks at the front and preload and rebound adjustable rear monoshock. Braking performance is handled by twin 310 mm discs with radial-mounted calipers at the front and a single rear disc. Despite its big engine, this bike weighs in at 198 kg with a seat height of 810 mm, ensuring easy accessibility for most riders.

Triumph offers the bike in three different color schemes – Ash Grey, Carnival Red and Jet Black.

3. Full of modern technology

The Trident 800 is packed with technological features to enhance both performance and comfort. It offers three ride modes – Road, Sport and Rain – as well as cornering ABS, lean-sensitive traction control, cruise control and a bi-directional quickshifter. Riders also get Bluetooth connectivity, a TFT display, LED lighting all around and optional smartphone integration for navigation and music.

4. Sophisticated design with premium details

While the Trident 800 stays true to the classic Trident design language, it looks more muscular and has a bulkier feel. The round LED headlamps, sculpted 14-litre fuel tank and minimalist tail section give it a clean yet athletic stance. Triumph offers the bike in three different color schemes – Ash Grey, Carnival Red and Jet Black – with premium finishes and details like gold-finished wheels that enhance its visual appeal.

5. Expected Launch and Price

Globally, the Trident 800 is positioned between the Trident 660 and the Street Triple range, with an estimated starting price of around ₹10.7 lakh (converted from UK pricing). It is set to go on sale in international markets in early 2026, and is likely to launch in India later the same year. When it arrives, it will take on rivals like the Yamaha MT-09, Ducati Monster and the BMW F 900 R.
