Triumph Tiger Sport 660 Review
"A genuinely rounded middleweight that earns its asking price on the used market."
Used Buyer Review
The Tiger Sport 660 sits in a sweet spot that Triumph absolutely nailed — it's not trying to be a full-on adventure bike or a naked streetfighter, just a genuinely useful middleweight that does most things well. That inline triple pulls cleanly from low revs and sounds properly good once you're past 5,000rpm. Used examples from 2022 onwards are solid buys, but check the chain and sprockets — owners who commuted hard often neglected them. Also inspect the screen mounting tabs; they crack if someone's been heavy-handed adjusting it. On a used market, these haven't depreciated dramatically yet, so don't expect a steal. Mileage under 10,000 is realistic for the price being asked. The suspension is on the softer side stock, which suits lighter riders but taller, heavier riders often find it wallows mid-corner when pushing. It's fixable with a spring swap but factor that cost in. Overall this is a bike that won't embarrass you anywhere — commuting, weekend blasts, light touring. Just avoid anything with crash damage; the fairings are expensive to replace and poorly repaired bikes flood this segment.
