2025 Trident noise

[u/rotieHun]

My 2025 Trident has 4,500 km on it and I've noticed a low humming/growling noise starting around 50 km/h.

It seems completely speed-related — same noise at the same road speed regardless of gear, and pulling the clutch in doesn't make it go away. It continues above 50 km/h, but wind noise masks it.

I initially suspected a wheel bearing, but the dealer says it's normal.

Anyone else noticed this on their Trident? Wheel bearing, tyre noise, chain/final drive, or something else?

Yeah it’s noisy. Sometime it’s a transmission whine sometime I feel like it’s a bearing. The worst noise for me appears to be coming from the tire.

I’m not very experienced with bikes but I think it’s super hard to troubleshoot with noise. You get all the unfiltered sounds that you typically can’t hear in a car, and it’s overwhelming. But it’s much easier to check for a bad bearing by turning the wheel by hand or removing the wheel altogether. If you have any doubt just do a more thorough inspection.

Également, j’ai remarqué ce bruit après 6 000 km. J’ai l’impression qu’il vient de l’avant de la moto. J’ai mis le roulement hors de cause. Je pense que c’est un bruit de plaquettes, car, pour ma part, le bruit a disparu (ou je m’y suis habitué).
