Triumph has started delivering the Tiger Sport 660 machines to dealerships and amongst the early customer bikes are the UK Dealer demonstrator machines. If you are interested in what the small-capacity adventure sport bike rides like then get in touch with your dealership and book your slot.
Retailing from £8,450 this is not a lot of money for a lot of bike. With Showa suspension, 150mm wheel travel, TFT instruments, 63 mpg (UK), 835mm seat height, and weighing in at only 206kg wet weight this appears a very accommodating machine.
The 660 delivers usable triple-cylinder power at the twist of the wrist. Central to the agility and thrilling performance is its 660cc engine; a Triumph triple that beats the twin-cylinder competition, delivering strong torque from low-down and right up through the range, peaking at 64Nm @ 6,250rpm. Power is class-leading and completely exhilarating, peaking at 81PS @ 10,250rpm. It’s smooth and linear, sporty and fun, for your commute or weekend delights.
