New 2021 Triumph Trident

[Novocastrian]

Stick a fairing on it and proper weather protection and then I could be interested....possibly.  The new Thaident....

Some vids from the unannounced reveal:

Full spec coming in a few weeks apparently

Another one for the helmet locked on the side of the bike, shorts, tee shirt, and flip flop set.  Oh well.

All I want is a reliable bike with shaft drive, good weather protection, which I can ride a long way, which has a 300 mile range at about 50 to the gallon and 10,000 mile service intervals.
My wifes Mercedes has 15k intervals, 450 mile range and 55 to the gallon and costs half as much to service as my bike (£1200 for 4 years). Something wrong somewhere?

I agree on the maintenance expense thing.  The only thing wrong is it probably isn't as much fun as the Trophy.

A lower cost, more upright Street Triple?

Something wrong somewhere?

Hydraulic Valve lifters on the Merc. and no Tupperware to remove at £xx.xx per hour ?
