POSTED: 14/06/2022
Real rider questions answered directly by Triumph - everything you wanted to know about the new Tiger Sport 660. It's the new first choice, with triple powered performance, incredible versatility, and the lowest cost of ownership in the category.
DOES THE TIGER SPORT 660 HAVE THE CLASSIC TRIUMPH 3-CYLINDER ENGINE?
Yes, which makes it unique and gives it a real advantage over two cylinder motorcycles, where it has class-leading peak power and delivers strong power throughout the rev range.
IS IT SUITABLE FOR SMALLER RIDERS?
The bike has a really accessible seat height of 835mm combined with a very narrow waist delivering excellent stand over.
IS THE SEAT HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE?
There is an accessory seat option available which reduces the seat height by 25mm to 810mm.
WHAT ARE THE MAIN DIFFERENCES AND SIMILARITIES BETWEEN THE TIGER SPORT 660 AND THE TRIDENT 660?
The bikes share the same triple engine platform and class-leading riding modes and technology but the chassis set up and ergonomics on the Tiger Sport 660 have been designed for greater two-up comfort and long range capability. That includes a more relaxed and upright riding position, longer travel suspension, single hand adjustable screen, a longer seat for more pillion comfort and fully integrated luggage and top box options.
IS IT FRIENDLY FOR NEW RIDERS AND CAN IT BE A2 RESTRICTED?
