Triumph launched the Trident 660 last year and it marked the brand's entry into the affordable premium middleweight category. However one thing was evident; the Trident platform would spawn more genres of motorcycles and true to our expectation, Triumph unveiled the Triumph Tiger Sport 660 some time back. Eventually and as planned, the Tiger Sport 660 has been launched in India and we got a chance to ride the baby Tiger.
The Triumph Tiger Sport 660 to begin with does not feature the same aggressive design as seen on the larger Tigers namely the Triumph Tiger 850 Sport, Triumph Tiger 900, or even the forthcoming Triumph Tiger 1200. It features a rather sharp-looking faring which is dressed up with striking LED headlights and DRLs. The front windscreen also can be manually adjusted and it does not require any tools to do so. Front suspension duties are taken care of by 41mm Showa USD forks which offer 150mm of travel. The Tiger Sport 600 comes with 17in alloy wheels at both ends shod with Michellin Road 5 tyres. Now, this is a clear indication that this Tiger is not positioned as an off-roader but more of an adventure tourer. Next up is an all-digital instrument panel which has been derived from the Trident as well. However, the casing on the panel is different and looks good on the Tiger Sport. The system has a small LCD display through which one can browse through the twin ride modes, navigation, trips, and so on.
