Triumph Tiger Sport 660

What changes for 2026?

In January 2026 Triumph unveiled the most significant update to the Tiger Sport 660 since its 2022 launch, alongside that of the Trident 660. The announced changes:

• an engine making 95 hp at 11,250 rpm (+14 hp) and 68 Nm at 8,250 rpm, with three individual 44 mm throttle bodies, a revised cylinder head, a larger airbox and a redline raised to 12,650 rpm;
• a new 3-into-1 exhaust and revised gear ratios;
• a frame revised to accommodate the new engine;
• new bodywork, new radiator cowls and a new headlight with integrated daytime running lights;
• a fuel tank enlarged from 17.2 to 18.6 litres.

The electronics are unchanged: since 2025, the Tiger Sport 660 has come as standard with an IMU (cornering ABS and traction control), the Triumph Shift Assist quickshifter, cruise control, three riding modes and My Triumph connectivity. Weight rises from 207 to 211 kg.

How much does it cost?

Triumph France lists the Tiger Sport 660 at €9,995 in Pure White and €10,145 in the two two-tone colours. There is no separate A2 version: an official restriction kit is available from dealers, free for bikes ordered and delivered in October 2026. In the United States it costs $10,445.

How good is the engine?

Every test praises the new engine. For Visordown, the 17% power increase “transforms” the bike; Motorcycle.com calls it the Tiger Sport’s standout star; MCN likes the smoother throttle and revised ratios. RevZilla finds the triple smooth low down and lively at the top, and the quickshifter outstanding. Moto-Net and Le Repaire des Motards praise its character, and Caradisiac finds it more expressive than before.

How does it ride?

MCN finds it as manageable and playful as ever, Caradisiac much more composed than before, especially at high speed, and Le Repaire des Motards praises an agile, well-balanced chassis.

The reservations concern:

• a non-adjustable fork that is soft when pushed (Motorcycle.com, Moto.it, Visordown, RevZilla, Moto-Net);
• merely adequate brakes and a front brake lacking progressiveness (Visordown, RevZilla, Moto-Net, Le Repaire des Motards);
• very intrusive ABS (Motorcycle.com, Moto-Net, Le Repaire des Motards);
• wind protection rated good by Moto-Net but improvable by Caradisiac, with buffeting to be tuned out with the screen according to MCN and RevZilla.

Fuel consumption and maintenance

Triumph quotes 4.9 L/100 km, giving a range of about 380 km from the 18.6-litre tank. No foreign press test published a measurement in normal riding. The owner’s manual specifies an oil change every 16,000 km or every year and a valve clearance check every 32,000 km. Triumph France provides a 2-year unlimited-mileage warranty.

Recalls

No recall was found for the 2026 generation. The first generation was recalled for the intake pressure sensor hose and for the fork caps (NHTSA 23V583000 and 24V109000, Safety Gate A12/02249/23 and A12/00615/24).
