- I tried out the brand-new Triumph Tiger Sport 660 and in this video I tell you all my thoughts on the bike, including differences to the Trident 660 that I intensively tested this year.

Your reviews cover just what a prospective buyer wants to know, almost every relevant aspect.
And you always sound too humble and genuine !!!
I love this bike, a cross between a street sport and a cross country tourer, probably reasonable on rough tracks too, basically a “do all” bike. Nice review and Jacket Juliane! 😊♥️👍🏽🏍
Do you know what I like the most in your videos? That honesty with which you review bikes. Almost no one else does that. This one is my favorite in its class. And you covered all the reasons behind that. Thanks, Julianne...
Thank you so much! Made my day! 🤗
My next bike! I was going for the Versy’s 650, but looking at the Triumph I prefer the triple, the only think I don’t like about the 660, is the fuel tank! I wish it was a little bigger like the Versy’s! Next year I will purchase the blue, can’t wait!!! 👍😀
17 liters and 350 km range is good enough for most riders. The triple engine sounds so good compared to the Versys.
I really like this bike. Triumph has been creating so many amazing bikes the past few years. Great review btw.
I’ve watched at least 20 reviews on the tiger sport 660… yours is the best. Straight forward with every question answered, and the editing, omg your editing is top notch
the thorough description of the engine behaviour/feel/powerband was very impressive and the best part of the review, thanks
Congratulations for the comments and I hope you enjoyed the roads here in Portugal😊
Great review Juliane! Your depth of knowledge and attention to detail makes this video enjoyable to watch.
Hi Juliane, I must say your reviews are just getting better and very informative. Thank you. 👍😎🇦🇺
I use my cruise control on my car but my bike does not have cruise control and I’m not crying about it ! 🇬🇧
This Bike is wonderful. I just traded my 2020 XCX for the new 2022 1200 Rally Explorer. Big changes for Triumph in 2022! The 660 will fit people that can't ride a 1200 size wise.
Great review Juliane!!!
Peace.
Ride SAFE and BE safe Lady!
🙌👏👏👏👏👏👍✌👌🖖🤙👋🙂🌹
6'5 guy here... some of us can't afford the Tiger 1200!
@@CCitis Yes the upper class of Adventure bikes get expensive but are well worth it. The 900, 850 and 660 are all beautiful bikes and substantially less than the 1200.
I bought my new blue one yesterday! Thanks for your lovely review and for being lovely!
I have been riding for over 40 years and currently choose to ride at VStrom 650. I was really excited to see the launch of the Tiger 660 and went to the motorcycle show at the NEC (UK) to try one for size. I was super impressed with the size, fit and finish on the bike and have booked a test ride which will give me a chance to do a back to back comparison with my Strom. Cruise control is not a feature that would interest me, I only occasionally use it on my car, and I plan my rides to avoid motorways, which is the only place it would be used. The service intervals really interest me, I am a high mileage rider, so 10,000 mile intervals would be great.
Hi Neil ,How did your test ride go?
I have a Vstrom 650 also.
Looking at putting a sidecar on it and getting the tiger 660 as a stand alone to replace it.
I would like to know too, but perhaps the test ride never happened. I owned a 650 V-Storm for 7 years. Once I test rode a Versys 650 and was amazed by the handling because of the 17” wheel vs the 19”. But I like the engine in the V-Storm better.
@@louislopez55 The test ride did happen and I didn't like the Tiger as a replacement for the VStrom. It's a nice bike but a journalist in SA described it as a sports bike with a sit up position and high screen and that's pretty much how I found it. I am just over 1.82m and I found the foot controls too small and cramped. I also found the seat pretty hard and the ride at the back harsh although both those could be dealt with. The handling is excellent and the engine is a gem, but it's not the bike for me. The salesman suggested I try a Tiger Sport 850 if I did not like the 660.... but no one seems to have those in the UK, not even the guy who suggested I try one.
@@neilmackinnon3371 Thanks for your answer! I’ve had 20 bikes in my life but the garage is empty at the moment. I’m looking and looking, it’s hard to get a test ride here in Arizona. I’m mostly interested in a BMW R1200R, a triumph Bonneville, and especially the NC750X. I am also considering another V-Strom. It will possibly be my last bike as I’m 63 and don’t know how much longer I’ll be riding. I would bet Triumph does some nice upgrades to the Tiger 660 in the next year or three. Probably cc and upgraded equipment at least. A reason to avoid any bike the first year or so it’s out, imo.
@@louislopez55 I'm the same age as you and I have never done as many motorcycle miles as I am currently doing. I'm in the UK so the distances compared to America are very different but the VStrom seems to do absolutely everything I want. The Tiger 660 is a great little bike.... for anyone around 6 foot tall or under. A bit like the Honda CB500X which just ain't made for tall folks.
Loved the video. I was looking at the Trident 660, but this is a brilliant move by Triumph. Best engine in class, and a 4.5 gallon tank. Only wish they had a center stand available for chain maintenance while on long tours. Cruise control would have been a nice option for the highway, but that may cut into the Tiger 900 sales. Also your English is perfect. You speak better than a lot of folks from Wisconsin. Merry Christmas.
This intermediate is all most folks really need right. Better mileage, easier u-turns, thicker wallet. -Love J when you can add the Inch/Lbs/MPG label equivalents for us stateside. Great review and Merry Christmas!
Triumph seems to now have a bike for everyone! This would make an excellent primary or even second bike for who like to collect machines (looking in mirror... :). Nice review Juls!
Juliane is the best bike reviewer.
With someone who is always up for a motorcycle review I'm baffled as to how I'm only seeing your channel now. You have a shot at 4:12 I've never seen in a motorcycle review before. Very nice! Nice to see an attractive and experienced female motorcycle journalist! Breath of fresh air honestly! Great review and am now subscribed. Look forward to seeing more from your channel! Also, I think it would have to be a toss up between the Tiger and the Tracer. It sucks that it doesn't come with a center stand.
The sound of that 3 cylinder is just the best, and the bike is a class leader, the only downside (as with all bike manufacturers) is the cost of accessories............btw a great review.
I’ll get mine on March here in Cal and can’t wait to ride it, great video, thank you!
Greatly enjoyed your video Juliane, very interesting and informative, thank you 😊
Hello, Merry Christmas Julianne. Thank you for the honest review.
Your kindness and swetness while talking about the bike just added a 6th star in your 5 stars work. In love with two you both, the bike and you.
See you soon, one more in your list of suscribers. I'll be waiting your next review.
A great hug from Zaragoza, Spain. Happy new year Julianne.
Great review! I look forward to test riding one.
Your report was well done, thank you. It's good to know that it's the same engine as the Trident, which I have been looking at. I love the wide power bands on these two bikes, and the technology seems to make this bike (and the Trident) high end quality for this mid-range category.
I’ve owned mine for about a month now. I really enjoy it! I use it as a “second bike”, but it is so much fun, my “first bike” isn’t getting very many miles right now.
What a Great review! You’re really professional and detail oriented, lots of very helpful information about the bike. You’re also very cute 😉
Have to say this new triumph looks and sounds really good, maybe I’ll buy one.
I love it and enjoy seeing the evolution of the Trident line. I still haven’t ridden one but I think this bike is definitely something I want to try. Thank you
Another really good review. I.can not think of a better bike for weekend short trips and all day cruises on different roads. Pavement and gravel. I’m still torn between this and the V2
I want that one! What a great sound- thanks for the tour😍
Great review. Look forward to buying one in March.
Good review and sounds like a really nice bike. However cruise control and a centerstand are essential in my view for a touring oriented bike. Thx :-)
Agreed given the category and focus these days on electronics you would think CC is a no brainer to specify, at least as an option
IMO every bike with throttle by wire should have cruise control, if not standard at least available as an option
Never had cruise control so won’t miss that and I always wack a Scotoiler on so no chain lubrication required so can live without a Centre stand!
More of these video's please Juliane!
Would definitely like to see you review and compare it’s competitors. Nice review though👍 I like your informational prompts, wish more reviewers did that. Okay keep up the good work. Thank you.
Love the review, you almost cover and consider all the things as per buyers aspect. waiting in India Launch
This looks like a much better bike in this class even if it is more money than the Tracer or Versys, I owned a Versys for 3 years loved it but moved on to a sports tourer (F800ST) might come back to this I will test ride it in the summer, awesome review!
I've learned on a Street Triple, and got my license by the end of 2020. I immediately bought a Versys 650 (while we had lowered VAT ;-)), and I think it is a great beginners bike.
After doing two 400km tours in the rain last year, I suppose I would prefer the Tiger Sport 660, because of the more powerful, and presumably less rough triple cylinder engine.
Correction on your statement about center stand that competitors don't have it. Honda NC750X has it I am having installed in US. Thanks for the awesome video.
Looking forward to getting my new tiger 660 sport in blue 💙 🙌 😎 👌.
Thanks Juliane, your english is very good, I like to listen to you.
Looks beautiful and that exhaust note! Oh just shut up and take my money 😍😍😍
Great review, looks like a really fun bike and sounds great!
Superb! Love from India ❤️
what's your height? referencing against the 830mm height. Suggestion: it would be helpful in future videos to show how well the feet reaches the ground.
Nice video. very informative.
As a big dude, I hope it fits me... I think this is a really great all arounder.
another gem from Triumph.
Comprehensive review. Keep it up.
Love that exhaust sound pure bliss 😊😊😊
Looks a very good and capable piece of equipment! 3cyl.is a different kind of buzz in ur ears and hands. Kind of go anywhere bike, as long as there is asphalt. Thank you Juliane!
Triumph is killing it these last few years! Some of the best looking bikes in the retro and adv segments. Or it could just be the reviewer.
Triumph is on a roll. Last time I saw you was in Tuscany on a Ducati and now Portugal on a Triumph. Major jealousy! 2022 bike interesting me the most is The Yamaha XSR 900. I trust your reviews! See what you can do?
Beauty and brains. This woman has it all!
The best review!!
Well done Triumph 👍👍 great fun bike and almost certainly will be known as a "classic'' in 20 years time....I want one!!🙂
Also by far the best looking bike in class. Cruise control and centre stand not a necessity for me. Good review, cheers.
Cooles Video, beneide Dich 🙂 Danke Juliane! 🙂
It is a pity that it does not have cruise control, but at the same time if it would have it the price would increase a lot. I think this is a great bike for everything, and much more suitable for long rides than trident.
would love to ride one
I can't wait for my blue!
Looks a awesome light weight sports tourer
Great blog stay safe
Can't wait to get mine : )
Great review!
Great looking bike. Waiting for your reviews on the new Truimph1200 Explorer.
It’s a lovely bike but do I change my Tiger 800XRT for one ? No I’ll keep my Tiger 800. Great review by the way.
The bike sounds and looks great, but cruise control on a touring bike is a must for me even as an extra.
Beautiful bikes with Beautiful Biker ✨
Great review, great bike
Great review for a great bike. 👍 👍 ❤️
I’ve never used cruise control but I have used a « crampbuster » on a longuish trip (200-575km per day) and it was very comfortable
Nice review :) one question, i noticed the absence of rubber footpegs, how were the vibrations?
Really great review…………can we have a Tracer 7 V Tiger Sport 660 shootout video plzzzz? I’ve tested the Tracer 7 and it is also a really fun, sporty, but comfortable bike and should also feel even lighter to handle!
10:54
Guy: whistling
Juliane: Can we do a soundcheck... of the bike, not of you.
😄
Aprilia Tuono 660 is not a direct cometetion but that does have both cruise control (standard) and QS (optional).
Love seeing ladies riders. Stay safe my lady.
Also keep in mind, the kawasaki comes with saddle bags as stock.
Lovely bike. Gonna test ride and maybe even get one. Just two things I really don‘t like: the display and the exhaust - find this kind super ugly and would rather have more ground clearance.
Great review .. really enjoyed watching it .
Looking for my first bike and this is one bike along with the trident I love .. thing is I also really like the versys 650 .. any advise 🙏🇬🇧🙏
Looks good, sounds good but the lack of a center-stand on a chain-driven bike is an inconvenience. More so is no cruise control, especially for the US market with long stretches of straight roads and freeways.
Nice review. If it came with electronic cruise control I would put down a deposit. Perfect size and weight for my aging demographic.
Beautiful bike, do you think is beginner friendly? I wonder which motorcycle you personally own?? Thanx and cheers
Nice video bro and thanx! Love this bike, do you think is beginner friendly or maybe to much for a first bike!? I want a bike for 60% commuting (town, work..) and 40% touring for the beginning. Regards from far away Serbia 🇷🇸 and ride safe ✌️
Fantastic video! Very detailed with lots of practical insight. Have you had a chance to test the 2021 Honda NC750X and see how it compares to the Tiger and similar competition? If you can get your hands on one that would make for a great comparison for this segment. Great review, looking forward to many more.
Amazing info and review.
I need a little more clarification as below.
The specification and all are good. As it's a mid-weight tourer bike, we need performance as well as comfort. It's not launched yet, but from the images/videos, it seems very sporty without a tourer-type upright position, foot-peg position for long rides, and comfortable seat cushion.
It seems like, the rider will get tired or get back and knee pain after a long ride.
So its competitors like Versys and v-storm feel more comfortable than this.
As you had the test ride, it would be very much help with your reviews for choosing this bike. We are so dependant on the reviews to make decisions on life-long investment on dreams to own a super-bike/tourer-bike.
So could you please share the details?
Great review. I would pay extra for cruise control if they have it as an option.
Bonne et heureuse année !✌
Thanks for the review! Have had mine in blue on order since August what leg inseam are you as I asked dealer to get low seat for me to try, I can flat foot the Trident just about.
V. nice review Juliane! By the way, could you tell me what’s the ground clearance of this bike? Is it suitable for mild off roading or dealing with the rough roads?
10 more hps,thats all that bike needs to become an all time value for money european bike,with great looks.
Hello Juliane, nice review, nicht Performance, nice Videos from your Channel...
Greetings from Austria
I am also a Triumph Rider... 😀👍🍀
Parabéns pelo vídeo!!! Abraço do Brasil 🇧🇷.
Great video !!
IMO Nobody needs cruise control ... If you cant hold the throttle you shouldnt be riding a motorcycle.
I bought mine in Michigan USA. Only rode it home cause its been to cold. I look forward to riding it to test ur results. But great video. Why don't they have a helmet lock on the bike?
I have cruise control, I only use when I need to adjust the vent on the throttle side.
Thanks for the great video review! I am having a hard time visualizing how the turn by turn directions are shown on the display. Do you have any video of that?
Gefällt mir gut das Bike. Werde ich auf jeden Fall probefahren im Frühjahr. Aber gegen meinen Tiger 800 werde ich sie nicht tauschen ;)
Würde mich mal interessieren, wieviel Aufpreis die cruise control wirklich ausgemacht hätte. Die ist mir persönlich auf langen Etappen schon sehr wichtig.
Ansonsten: wie immer tolles Video, gut präsentiert! Farblich bin ich bei dir. Blau wäre auch meine Wahl.
I need a bike with both headlights on at the same time, getting tired of people telling me I have a burnt out headlight!!
a nice review.
Seasons Greetings RR by J.!
steht Dir 😍 4:12 looking great! - were you offered to swap your trident for this in 2022? or thought about it personally yet? or do you need something totally different for next year?
Thank you for the information you provided. I'm looking forward to the arrival of this motorcycle in my country. You said you were happy with the height of the saddle. Could you please tell me how tall you are?
