Triumph Tiger Sport 660: Should you spend your money on this?
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Test and review and full specifications of the Triumph Tiger Sport 660. Is it a worthwhile motorcycle? Should you buy it? Let us first talk about the numbers:
It is a 660cc liquid cooled inline triple based on the Triumph Trident 660 engine. It is a 12Valve DOHC engine that delivers 80 bhp at 10250 rpm and 64Nm of torque at 6250 rpm. It comes with a 6 speed gearbox with a slipper and assist clutch which works beautifully around corners with practically little to no rear wheel hopping with aggressive downshifts.
The 0-100 numbers are impressive consistently clocking around 3.7 secs. And top speed number at 204 kmph or 130 miles/h.
The Tiger weighs in at 206 kilos wet or 455 lbs. And the bike feels pretty light overall. More on that later.
Tank capacity is at 17L or 4.54 US gallons. That gives you a range of 330 kms or 205 miles before you run dry depending on your riding style.

I dont it really think it is a tiger, Im pretty sure they have tails and stripes but I will take your word for it. Honestly man I have never been more interested in bikes until watching your vids.
Planning on getting this for my first bike. Thanks for the great video

Versys 650 is a good overall bike. But it is no match for the Triumph 660 motor which is a blast!
That acceleration at 5:00 was insane

what model year is this bike shown in the video?
I think for anyone looking to start their brand loyalty to the Tiger, this is a good entry level motorcycle to the Tiger family. Of course there could have been a lot of better things about the bike, but it can be considered as a stepping stone to the bigger Tigers, money being no object. Then again, this is expensive and I'd rather go for the bigger Tiger when I'm ready for it. Nice review and glad to see a DL registered bike, it's been a while we saw you with one of those.

You are right. It is kinda "expensive". It is a stepping stone to the "bigger" tigers. But that said, performance wise, this is no slouch. Yes, a DL registered bike after many years lol!

I made the opposite path :D I had the Tiger 800 and I moved to this one, its not because of Height, but more because its more agile 🙂 I count it as an upgrade.
I had the Tiger 800 XC and now I have this one, and I think she is a Tiger yes, just a smaller one :D

Nice video bro and thanx! Love this bike, do you think is beginner friendly or maybe to much for a first bike!? I want a bike for 60% commuting (town, work..) and 40% touring for the beginning. Regards from far away Serbia 🇷🇸 and ride safe ✌️

That's a good question! Depends upon your past riding experience. If you have done dirt bike riding before, it can be a good bike for street as a beginner. But if it is your first bike ever, it can be a handful. I would suggest going for something like a 390 Duke or an MT09.
Nice video, is this bike comparable to Yamah tracer 7? which one is better option? Any way, great video Be safe

@@petroosabdollahian1648 Wow! That's interesting. I would really like to check out the Tracer 7. Unfortunately we do not have that option in the US. I did a full review of the Tracer 9 GT.
How would it stack up against the 850 Sport? Although that's only an entry-level adv. I wish the 660 were called something else.

That's a good point. And I did ride in a 3rd world country with pretty mediocre roads, with a pillion sitting behind. I did not face any problems I must say.
