Triumph Trident 660 vs Honda CB500X 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 Honda CB500X is a good touring machine and can take on the rough easily too. It is available in two colours - Matt Gunpowder Black Metallic and Grand Prix Red. The one big gripe that we have is the pricing, which feels exorbitant. Honda CB500X is actually a versatile motorcycle and It is perhaps the best-rounded package in the 500 cc space, but customers will have to be willing to pay the price for it.
