I wouldn't take too much from my opinion of the trident. I'm sure for a different style of rider it's great, maybe if I was younger, smaller, braver and liked riding on the redline with my elbows skimming the tarmac it would be the one. I guess that's why it gets reviewed so highly, I'm clearly just not the right kind of rider. I loved the MT-07 I trained on and the GSX-8S which are direct competitors, but they feel very different to the trident despite being pitched against each other.

Honestly the Yamaha and Suzuki felt very similar to the triumph, the main difference was the looks, the noise and the price.
