The Triumph Trident 660 was an instant hit as soon as it came out, and now Triumph wants to up the game with the 2026 Triumph Trident 800.
The 800-series of triples already exist for some time, powering the Tiger 800 then the Tiger Sport 800. However, the triple on the Trident 800 is all-new, rather than a direct carry over from the other models.
Triumph places it between the entry-level Trident 660 and the bonkers Street Triple 765RS. As such, the 800 boasts many additional features that are not available on the smaller 660, but not as comprehensive as the 765 RS’s.
Highlights
- 798cc, three-cylinder, DOHC engine which produces 113 hp at 10,750 RPM and 82.7 Nm at 8,500 RPM.
- Triumph went ahead and gave the engine a twist-forged crank, high compression pistons, and three throttle bodies.
- Suspension duties is handled by fully-adjustable 411mm upside-down Showa forks, while the rear monoshock features preload and rebound adjustments.
- There are twin 310mm brake discs up front, along with a pair of radially-mounted four-piston calipers up front.
- Seat height is only 810 mm high, which is a boon for any rider.
- Lean-sensitive cornering ABS and traction control.
- Three riding modes: Road, Sport, Rain.
- Triumph Shift Assist quickshifter.
- Cruise control is standard.
- Bluetooth connectivity with the 3.5-inch TFT meter is also standard.

- In terms of styling, the Trident 800 looks nearly identical to the Trident 660’s silhouette, but has more premium detailing.
- The 2026 Triumph Trident 800 will be available in three colours called: Ash Grey, Carnival Red, and Jet Black. Gold-finished wheels are standard.
