We can’t start talking about the Triumph Tiger Sport 660 adventure bike without first tipping our hat to its naked sibling: the Trident 660. One of the big success stories of 2021, not only is it a great value, top quality roadster with a cool badge slapped on the tank, but it’s also one that’s as appealing to newbies as the experienced, which is quite a trick.

Triumph have taken that winning formula to create the Tiger Sport 660 and it’s every bit as impressive. You could call it a tall rounder, or a sports adventure, but in many ways it’s the half-faired Street Triple we always wish they’d made, but never did.

It’s spacious, comfortable, agile and easy to manage, but can be genuinely sporty, too, with a front end that fills you with confidence, tyres that grip beautifully in all conditions and powerful brakes. That’s all on top of a tuneful three-cylinder engine that’s never short of grunt or excitement but still friendly when you need it to be.

It’s such a complete, well-built, affordable, creation that cruise control suddenly seems a glaring omission for a bike designed to do big miles, but it’s a small blip in a sea of brilliance.

New bars are wider, higher and closer to the rider than the Trident’s and the pegs are lower. It’s a deliciously comfy and spacious riding position that works perfectly for big-mile riding, despite the Tiger’s mid-sized layout. It’s slim, well balanced, easy to manage and taller riders will love the legroom.

Its seven way manually adjustable screen is easy to jiggle with one hand on the move and effective, but like all tall road bikes, windblast can be noisy at speed.

Steel rather than aluminium is used for the frame and (longer) swingarm to keep costs down, but no matter because the Tiger Sport 660 is still light and agile. Its 30mm longer-travel upside down Showa forks (with a 1.5-degree steeper rake and 10mm less trail) and shock are basic, but they’re perfectly set to give the best mix of ride quality, cornering control and stability.

The Triumph doesn’t just handle well for an affordable all-rounder, it flows through corners with the poise of some of the best out there, with a similar feel to one of the most unlikely of great handling road bikes: Honda’s CB500X.

It has huge grip, a tactile front end and despite having low, knee-friendly pegs, we never get them scraping. Twin piston Nissin calipers are basic, but like everything with the Tiger belie their simplicity. Strong and consistent, they’re packed with feel despite its ABS

It works so seamlessly as a sporty, easy to ride, all-rounder, you wonder why it’s taken them this long to make it…and just how great a Street or Speed Triple version would be.

The Tiger Sport’s 80bhp three-cylinder motor is identical to the Trident’s – itself a rework of their fantastic old Daytona 675 lump, with a shorter stroke and a bucket load of new components, including lower first to fourth gear ratios and higher fifth/sixth. Valve check intervals are at a generous 10,000 miles and a 46bhp A2 licence restriction kit is also available.

Its beating supersport heart and raspy soundtrack remains intact, so the Tiger is revvy, exciting and never short of grunt when you need it, almost regardless of the gear. It’s a sporty engine that’s livelier than its rivals, but crucially it’s also a friendly one, which has been the key to the Trident 660’s success.

Power is delivered smoothly low down, isn’t overwhelming or hard to control up top and the ride-by-wire throttle is light and accurate. At 70mph it purrs along at 6000rpm.

Fuel tank capacity is up from 14 to 17.2 litres. We get an indicated 51mpg during our spirited day’s riding at the Tiger’s world launch in the hills of southern Portugal (a theoretical full-to-dry range of 193 miles), with the reserve light coming on at 160 miles.

MCN’s online owners’ reviews of the mechanically identical Trident 660 are all glowing, and our Triumph Tiger Sport 660 owners' reviews are equally enthusiastic.

That shouldn’t come as much of a surprise as during its development its engine underwent over half a million miles worth of durability testing, 1200 miles of flat-out speed runs, 31 individual rig tests over 3440 hours, 20,000-plus miles on track and 3300 hours on the road.

The Tiger Sport 660 has the Kawasaki Versys 650 and Yamaha Tracer 700 firmly in its sights, but not only is the Triumph more powerful, it’s the most complete all-rounder with zero chinks in its impressive new armour. Granted, it’s slightly dearer (although on PCP it’s negligible), but it’s beautifully finished and well equipped.

The Tiger Sport 660 comes with riding modes (Road, Rain), switchable traction control, ABS, LEDs, self-cancelling indicators, an immobiliser, twin piston Nissin calipers, span adjustable brake lever, Michelin’s superb Road 5 sports touring tyres and a useful remote hydraulic rear preload adjuster.

Its multi-function LCD/colour TFT display is easy to read and has everything you need, except outside temperature and Bluetooth connectively is extra.

It’s such a complete machine it’s hard to criticise, except for one thing: its lack of cruise control. Ok, it would push the price up and its rivals don’t have it either, but it’s such a great tourer and step above the rest, it’s conspicuous by its absence.

Some would prefer a centre stand, too. But there are 40-plus accessories available, including a quickshifter, heated grips and touring goodies including panniers, a top box that takes two helmets and 25mm lower seat option.

Very competent and comfy bike, certainly quick enough. Sold after a while as didn’t quite have that certain quality that makes you look back over your shoulder as you walk away from it. I’d certainly recommend it though and I had many very positive comments from other riders which suggests it looks better in the flesh than in photos.

4 out of 5 Thoughts on the Tiger Sport 660 after 3 months/5k miles
28 July 2023 by FatherOBlivion

Year: 2022

Annual servicing cost: £100

Light, agile, confidence inspiring and fast enough all-rounder. Perfect for around town and commuting. Priced right with long maintenance intervals.3 months and 5k miles in, I have a few minor quibbles. No cruise control, even as an option, is unfortunate. Short gearing. While that's fine for around town, it's buzzy cruising for extended periods at California hwy speeds (80/85 mph is typical). Swapping the sprocket out is helpful, but at the cost of around town zip.Overall, loving the bike and no regrets. A couple minor changes and this bike would be perfection.

Handling is excellent for daily driver and the occasional weekend in the mountain twisties.

Engine 5 out of 5

Perfect for what this bike is. A fun, low maintenance and easy to live with daily driver.I've heard others complain about engine heat, but I don't find it to be an issue. I've ridden in temps >100 and no worse than any other bike I've owned.If I'm in a hooligan mood, my Street Triple is more appropriate, but that isn't a negative statement on this bike. Horses for courses.

The best: the engine and the handling and the ergonomics The worst: an omission of cruise control

Ride quality & brakes 4 out of 5

Despite having almost no suspension adjustability (preload on the rear only) it offers a good compromise of comfort and tautness. Brakes work though lack a touch of feel at the initial bite. Maybe some EBC H's would make a difference.

Engine 5 out of 5

Coming from the 2012 Triumph Explorer this bike makes me a lot less lazy. It has the torque to accelerate in any gear but just encourages you to rev through the range. I wouldn't say I'm riding it like an old two stroke but it is fun to keep it higher in the rev range.

5 out of 5 A Triumph
23 January 2023 by Martin

Year: 2023

Annual servicing cost: £100

My biking adventure started in June 2022 and after completing my CBT I decided that I needed a few months riding experience before progressing to getting my A License. Therefore I bought myself a Yamaha XSR 125, this proved an excellent intro into riding. I passed my 'full-fat' A license just before Christmas (first time) and based on the multiple rave reviews for the Tiger 660 sport it seemed like the natural bike to get. I've clocked 800 miles on it (in just over a fortnight) and it's been through its first service so now seems like a good time to offer my thoughts. I looked at the Tracer 7 GT, BMW 850 GS/F900XR and Honda NC750 before making the choice to go for the Triumph. In my humble opinion the Triumph has so much more to it than the other bikes I looked at/test rode. It feels eager, very quick and effortless to ride and handle, it somehow feels bigger, more capable and much more comfortable, whilst being thrilling when the mood takes you. So far, most of the riding I have done has been atrocious weather conditions - I'm never buying a new bike in January again - but the bike has performed amazingly, safe, rapid and comfortable - bring on the spring, with brighter days and hopefully less wind and rain. I went for the bike in grey - I think it looks bloody handsome and much more contemporary than the bikes it would naturally be compared with. Negatives, not many, I can already see the benefit cruise control would bring, given it's amazing cruising ability and it would be nice if the instrument navigation controls were backlit - a bike with so much quality this seems like a bit of miss to me, but otherwise I am overwhelmingly happy with this bike and confident I won't be replacing for several years. I'm 5'6", but well built, with the lower comfort seat I'm managing the bike without any difficulty - I should imagine most people will be able to find a comfortable riding position.

Ride quality & brakes 5 out of 5

Brakes and ride quality are just fantastic - very well sorted damping means its equally happy riding through the city, fast B-roads or the motorway. Brakes have loads of feel and are very powerful

Engine 5 out of 5

This, I believe is what sets it apart from the competition - that 3-cyclinder engine is cracking, great soundtrack and for me, all the power and speed one needs in the real world. Engine is incredibly flexible and pulls cleanly in almost any gear. The clutch is super light- the quick shifter 90% of the time is great, but a lower speeds it can be more reluctant to shift without clutch input. I'm not finding any issue with not being able to adjust the reach of the clutch handle.

Reliability & build quality 5 out of 5

So far, so good - one of the bolts which attach the height adjuster handle to the screen came loose, but this was quickly replaced by the amazing guys at Pure Triumph, Woburn. Otherwise perceived quality is way up there - feels very well put together.

Value vs rivals 5 out of 5

£100 for first service. Managing 50-60mpg which I am happy with. I'm still in my first year of riding, although have had a driving license for 26 years so insurance is pretty steep - hoping the premiums come down after the first year or so.

Equipment 5 out of 5

Heated grips - great, warm enough, if wearing the right gloves. Quick shifter - 90% of the time is a real asset Connectivity module - took a while to get phone, headset and bike to communicate but now its setup its working fine. The navigation system is a little basic and can only run from the triumph app, but preferable to either having to attach phone or separate sat nav system. Panniers, smart and good capacity Fog lights - essential in winter and add a further element of being visible. Tyres are brilliant.

Buying experience: Pure Triumph, Woburn - brilliant service and held on to the bike for me, after some unexpected delays in getting through my test. Not much wriggle room on the price but did offer a reasonable trade-in for my 125 and discounted optional extras.

Fantastic bike!I traded in Ducati Multistrada 950 for Tiger. Tiger is just as comfortable, more fun, more exciting.Of course the MS has more power, but I couldn't use it. The Tiger always has enough to thrill, and you can wind it out. It is sooo fun and visceral and good handling and easy to ride and we'll sorted out. I'm smitten.

I'm from Alberta Canada, I took it for a trip through British Columbia roughly 1500km. I had no issues but like everyone says cruise control would have made it easier (but not a deal breaker).Also been riding it to and from work daily in the city and it's been great as a commuter.

I paid $370 Canadian for the first service and that will be the servicing cost once per year.

Little said about lights. I didn’t realize it uses one of the two lights for low beam, one for high. Always thought the headlight burned out look was goofy. That said, low beam is excellent riding illumination and high is dazzling on an open road. I tend to ride in daytime with high beams illuminated for better visibility anyway. That is what I have to add to all the raving reviews.

I have oiled the chain once and I am now up to 2,000 miles.

The bike is a peach of a ride.I particularly like the engine,it reminds me of a Street I owned some years ago,like has been suggested it’s the Street I always wanted. The tyres are very confidence inspiring. The screen is noisy in any position and I’m not tall! It seems I will have to wait for the after-market to offer a cure for that. Same goes for the seat height, Much too tall,a real challenge to mount especially with the very good panniers in place.

Not given it the beans yet but it seems better torque than the old 675 but I may be wrong. It’s lost the old engine’s whine which I liked I chose panniers,(good) heated grips (good) rear rack (handy) don’t hanker after the add on connectivity package but I may choose a quick shifter soon. Back brake the best I’ve had in a long time. Tyres are great as standard.

Buying experience: Bought from Youles Blackburn.First class experience.Paid list as I was fortunate to get one so soon.
