Triumph has launched the Tiger Sport 660 in India, with prices starting at INR 8,95,000, ex-showroom, Pan India. The motorcycle made its global debut last year as an entry-level offering in Triumph’s Adventure category.
The Tiger Sport 660 is essentially an adventure version of the Trident 660. The windscreen is height-adjustable, of course. Other features include LED headlights, self-canceling turn signals, a color TFT display, Road and Rain modes, switchable traction control, ABS, and slip and assist clutch.
Braking duties are handled by twin 310 mm discs at the front gripped by Nissin two-piston sliding calipers, and a single 255 mm disc at the rear gripped by Nissin single-piston sliding caliper. Front suspension is a Showa 41 mm upside down fork with 150 mm travel, while at the rear, there’s a Showa monoshock with hydraulic preload adjustment and 150 mm travel.
The 660 cc in-line 3-cylinder liquid-cooled engine develops a maximum of 60 kW (81 metric hp) at 10,250 rpm and 64 Nm (47 lb-ft) of torque at 6,250 rpm, the same figures as in the Trident 660. The engine is paired with a 6-speed gearbox. With fluids, the motorcycle weighs 206 kg (454 lbs), which is 17 kg (37.5 lbs) more than its naked sibling.
