what bar end mirrors are those? bikes beautiful. just purchased my trident last saturday and waiting for it to get delivered. did you take the msf course? and how long did it take you to get comfortable with the bike?
Hey man, the mirrors are from Amazon. Just type “red handlebar motorcycle mirrors” should show up as some of the first result. There’s other companies out there that make a different variation. I did take the MSF course about 2 days, was very helpful. The biggest takeaway from the course was just learning your driving environment. Got comfortable very quickly. Iv put about 4500 Miles in 3 months so iv been riding heavily. It’s an excellent bike. I feel like iv outgrown it however. Great purchase.
@@302bikelife Get rid of rain mode, and you won't feel you've outgrown it any more :-) I am still in the break-in period of my trident (bike was delivered to me on September) and I've only ridden for about 750 km so far, but I really love how it feels (I'm coming from a very old -1989- Suzuki GSX400T that had maybe 25hp, so this bike feels like a super-bike to me)
@@302bikelife127 here, definitely has governor. Once I get my GPR exhaust and turn let’s see if I can get 140, don’t wanna push it too hard tho unless I get a stabilizer
One of the best sounding bike with an aftermarket exhaust ❤
I agree. Thank you!
The only one in the group that has no back pain 😂
Watched it all the way through. Love your driving style, man.
Thank you 🙏🏾
Hows maintenance and cost of parts on this, let's say compared to a Japanese bike?

@@302bikelife it is my first bike, taking my course in September. Did you start out in rain mode?
@@itwitchebuilds9642 yes. I still ride on rain mode even till today but only helps with traction control mostly
@@302bikelife i see. i can’t wait for mine to get here though

Shocked that you're on the highway with it. The wind is too much for me.
Got it hold on tight and tuck in 😅
Do you also feel as if the bike is pushing hard to give out that much power when you go above 100?
Yes
@@302bikelife still doesn't mean it is difficult to handle up around there?
@@mo-zy not at all correct. I’m certain with a tune it can go up to 140-150.
@@302bikelife thanks a lot for the info. Ride safe and enjoy
Just wondering. What is the top speed you can get on the trident? It never is the exact number on paper
Iv been able to do 125mph on it.
You can see on YT tridents reaching 213 Km/h (which is I believe the official top speed). It translates to 133 mph.

i was at that speed on my triumph trident.. but it's not the max speed.. i still have throttle left

@@ioannischristou2362probably depends on rider weight. I haven’t been able to get to 130
Yea trident vs cbr 1000😂😂😂😂 Nice Joke😅
