I’ve always had a soft spot for three-cylinder bikes. There’s just something about the way a Triple pulls—more grunt than a twin, more character than an inline-four. And when it comes to triples, few names carry the same weight as Triumph.
I used to own a Street Triple RS, and to this day, it’s one of the most refined and entertaining bikes I’ve ever ridden. So when Triumph dropped the Trident 660, I was instantly intrigued. Not just because it made the brand’s iconic triple more accessible, but because I could already see the potential it had in the custom scene.
Over the years, we’ve seen a wave of modified Tridents popping up across the globe—some sleek, others wild. But nothing quite like this. Enter FCR Original, a French custom workshop known for turning stock machines into rolling art. Based in Chauvigny, France, the team has built a reputation for tastefully transforming bikes into OEM-plus masterpieces—machines that look like they could’ve come straight from the factory, but sharper, meaner, and dripping with personality.
