Triumph Trident T160 – The Ultimate British Triple

The Triumph Trident T160 represented the final evolution of Triumph's famous three-cylinder motorcycles and remains one of the most admired British classics ever built.

Introduced in the mid-1970s, the T160 featured a number of improvements over earlier Trident models, including revised styling, a left-foot gear change and upgraded braking performance.

Powered by a 741cc three-cylinder engine, the T160 delivered smooth power, impressive performance and one of the most distinctive exhaust notes in motorcycling. Its triple-cylinder layout offered a unique blend of torque, flexibility and character that set it apart from the parallel twins that dominated British motorcycling.

Many enthusiasts consider the T160 to be the finest Meriden-built Triumph of them all.

Today the Triumph Trident T160 remains highly sought after by collectors and riders who appreciate its combination of engineering, performance and timeless British style.
