Triumph Tiger Sport 660 Design & Features

The Triumph Tiger Sport 660's design is quite different from its larger siblings. The Tiger Sport 660 features a half-fairing that plays host to sharp and sleek dual headlamps. The Tiger 660 Sport features a large adjustable windscreen. The heavily sculpted fuel tank gives the Tiger 660 Sport a muscular look.

The Tiger 660 Sport also features a stainless steel 3 into 1 header setup with a low single sided stainless steel silencer that ends just behind the front right footpeg. The rear end of the bike features grab rails on either side for the pillion rider and dual taillights.

The Tiger Sport 660 features a digital display which is partly TFT and partly LED. The Sport 660 gets two riding modes (Road and Rain), switchable traction control and will be available in three dual tone colour options - Lucerne Blue/ Sapphire Black, Graphite/ Sapphire Black and Korosi Red/ Graphite.

Thoughts On The Triumph Tiger Sport 660

The Triumph Tiger Sport 660 sees the British brand duke it out once again in the middleweight sports tourer segment in India currently dominated by the Japanese bikes like the Kawasaki Versys 650 and the Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT. By keeping the pricing close to its Japanese rivals, Triumph has ensured that its latest Tiger has a chance to claw its way into being a winner.
