The 2026 Triumph Trident 800 fills the gap between the friendly Trident 660 and the more aggressive Street Triple RS. Powered by Triumph's new 798cc inline-three engine, it offers an impressive blend of performance, comfort and everyday usability. With 113 bhp, quality Showa suspension and a full suite of modern electronics, it's aimed at riders who want exciting road performance without the uncompromising nature of a track-focused naked bike — and at £9,195 OTR in the UK (Triumph) or roughly €10,700–€11,200 across Europe depending on registration costs (Triumph Media), it undercuts most of the competition.

The Trident 800 in Carnival Red — gold wheels and a proper cafe-tail.
113 bhp is enough to get the front end light if you ask for it.
Verdict
BikeSocial called it the performance of a big bike with the agility of a smaller bike, and Visordown went further, naming it Triumph's most rounded naked bike yet. Riders trading up from a 650-class machine report on forums that it feels like a genuine step up without becoming intimidating, and I'd agree. The triple's character, matched with proper suspension and electronics at a price that undercuts almost everything else in its class, makes this one of the strongest middleweight naked bikes you can buy right now. If you're cross-shopping a 650 twin or hunting for an everyday roadster that's fast, comfortable and genuinely fun, the Trident 800 deserves a place near the top of your shortlist.
