Triumph Trident 660 vs BMW R nine T Comparison

The Trident 660 has been positioned as an entry-level premium bike, for riders with less experience, or for those looking for a bike to get back into motorcycling. Looking at just the numbers, the Trident may not feel like much, but with 80 bhp power, with 90 per cent of the torque spread out across the rev range, in a 189 kg kerb weight package, makes for quite an entertaining motorcycle. It will be perfect for the daily commute, and will be up for some weekend fun.

The BMW R nineT is a beautiful looking modern classic motorcycle, with a perfect blend of the classic styling of old BMW motorcycles from the 1960s with the latest technological advancements of engineering and electronics. It gets an air-cooled boxer twin engine and offers solid performance. But it is heavy and the engine tends to heat up as well. Not to mention the high cost of ownership that is required.
