Triumph Trident 660 Special Edition To Launch In India? Here's What Teaser Reveals

NDTVa day ago

Triumph Motorcycles India has teased a new motorcycle via its social media handle. Based on the image revealed by the brand, it seems like this is going to be a Triumph Trident 660. However, this is not a regular version of the motorcycle. It seems like the special edition version of the bike was revealed by the brand in May 2025. Specifically, it is the Tribute Edition that pays homage to the legendary five-time Isle of Man TT-winning 'Slippery Same'.
The Special Edition sports a sleek sapphire black exterior with a rich, glossy black finish, giving it a stealthy appearance. This is paired with striking Cobalt Blue and Diablo Red accents that flow across the tank, tail, and front end. The '67' race number graphic on the tank honors the Isle of Man TT victory. The look is completed with Diablo Red wheels, an aerodynamic flyscreen in Sapphire Black, and a sculpted aluminum belly pan.
The new Trident 660 Triple Tribute Edition comes with rider-oriented enhancements, such as a sport riding mode, cornering ABS, and traction control. Triumph's shift assist enables smooth, clutchless gear changes both up and down.

The Trident 660's triple-cylinder engine produces 80 horsepower and 64 Nm of peak torque. This engine is paired with a six-speed transmission, complemented by Triumph Shift Assist, which is a standard feature of this special edition.
Regarding the hardware, the Trident 660 is built on a tubular steel chassis, features Showa 41mm Separate Function Big Piston upside-down forks, Michelin Road 5 tires, and utilizes twin Nissin two-piston front calipers.

Scrambler motorcycles blend retro design with light off-road capability, making them a popular choice for riders seeking versatility without committing to a full-fledged ADV. With their upright ergonomics, wide handlebars, and dual-purpose tyres, these scramblers are ideal for commuting through Indian roads as well as the occasional adventure.

Revisiting DGR 2025: A celebration of style, spirit, and solidarity with Triumph Motorcycles

May 18, 2025 marked a defining moment for India's motorcycling community as over 3000 riders across 40+ cities came together for one purpose: to ride with distinction, and more importantly, with cause. The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride (DGR) 2025, a global initiative to raise awareness and funds for prostate cancer research and men's mental health, was steered across the country by Triumph Motorcycles, DGR's global sponsor. What made this year exceptional though wasn't just the scale, but the sheer emotion it carried. The roar of throttles was matched by the strength of purpose, as riders showed up not just in vintage suits, suspenders, and polished brogues, but in spirit. This was not just a ride. It was a statement. The numbers speak volumes In its most widespread edition yet, DGR 2025 saw participation from over 48 Indian cities, including Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, and more. From café racers to bobbers, modern classics to roadsters, the community came alive with an elegance rarely seen on the roads. With more than 3000 dapper riders suited in tailored charm and vintage aesthetics, the event transcended a simple group ride. It became a nationwide pledge to men's health, showcasing how motorcycles can unite people for a cause that deeply matters. Triumph Motorcycles leading DGR India Triumph's classic British design and modern engineering were in perfect harmony at this year's DGR. With motorcycles that capture the elegance of yesteryear and the performance of today, Triumph's Modern Classics, including the Bonneville range, Speed 400, and Scrambler 400 X formed the backbone of the event, with 1974 Triumph Motorcycle owners joining the ride. These machines didn't just turn heads; they embodied the spirit of DGR: Timeless, dignified, and full of purpose. Manik Nangia, President, Pro Biking, Bajaj Auto Ltd. said, 'The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride is more than an event, it's a statement. This year, India's participation says it all, how much we believe in the ride and the purpose as well. Our riders added unmatched strength, elegance and unity to the global movement. It's been the most inspiring edition yet.' Amit Sadh: Championing the cause Among the many who participated was actor and avid motorcyclist Amit Sadh. Known for his advocacy of mindful riding, Sadh exemplified the DGR spirit; riding not as a public figure, but as a passionate part of the community. 'I am proud to join a global movement that uses style, camaraderie and the spirit of riding to spark important conversations and drive real change', he shared. His presence wasn't about celebrity value but more about solidarity. His ride reflected DGR's motto of ' Riding with purpose.' The purpose stands strong Since its inception in 2012, The Distinguished Gentleman's Ride has become a global phenomenon, bringing together over half a million riders and raising awareness for issues that often go unspoken. In India, it's evolved into something more– a cultural movement where style meets soul, where every rev of the engine is a pledge to care, to speak up, and to support men's health. The 2025 edition proved that when the community rides together, it rides with unmatched strength. As the engines settle and the roads grow quiet, one truth remains— when we ride together, we ride for change.
