Triumph Tident 800 [2026]: What to Expect from the Rumored Midweight Triple

Triumph’s modern Trident revived the brand’s affordable naked lineup with the 660, and rumors now point to a bigger sibling for 2026: the Triumph Trident 800 (frequently misspelled “Tident 800”). If it lands, expect a sweet spot between everyday rideability and proper punch—slotting above the Trident 660 and beside or below the Street Triple in performance and price.

Below is what we’re hearing and logically expecting from a 2026 mid-displacement Triumph triple. Note: Triumph has not officially confirmed this model at the time of writing.

At a glance (expected, unconfirmed)

• Engine: Inline-triple around 800 cc (exact displacement TBA)
• Character: Broad midrange torque with a playful top-end, street-focused gearing
• Electronics: Ride-by-wire, multiple ride modes, IMU-assisted cornering ABS and TC
• Aids: Bi-directional quickshifter, slip/assist clutch
• Chassis: Lightweight naked ergonomics, inverted fork, quality shock (adjustability likely)
• Brakes: Dual front discs with radial calipers
• Tech: Full-color TFT, Bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn nav support
• Lighting: Full LED with DRL
• Seat/ergos: Neutral upright stance for daily comfort
• Target riders: Newer and experienced riders wanting a lively, well-equipped middleweight

Why it matters

The 700–900 cc naked segment is fiercely competitive, and a Trident 800 would give Triumph a value-packed triple that bridges approachable pricing with premium feel. Think commuter-friendly versatility, weekend back-road fun, and enough tech to satisfy 2026 expectations—all without superbike running costs.
