my brother got his heated grips updated on wed. all good now.
so turned around and went home said:Crikey I had to read that twice.
That says more for the Triumph than any internet review!!
So you've gone from an 80 BHP Triumph T120 to a much more dynamic 80 BHP Tiger 660 Sport. Congratulations that you've managed to hang onto this one! Had you gone for a S1000XR, you would still have the chain drive after spending all that money.You all know what im like and after selling the 1250GS Rallye and being left with 2 usable bikes the Tiger sport 660 and the
adv350 I sort of went into "its not big enough, its not powerful enough, its not a BMW !! Mode so I did a deal with a 2022 S1000XR TE with all the toys and was offered a great price for the Triumph so was happy to do it subject to me having a test ride on the XR,
I left my house on the Tiger all full of the joys of another new bike,
15 miles into the 50 mile trip I pulled off the motorway and stopped got off and had a look at the Triumph with all its panniers top box and bits on it and thought, Ive just sat at between 90-100 all the way here WTF am I doing it is big enough, it is powerful enough, its not a BMW but its £7500 cheaper than the XR at £15,999 without panniers, top box, alarm, etc etc
so turned around and went home, in all honesty smiling all the way, Ive never done that before so that says something for the Little Tiger Sport !!

Out today for a 70 mile ish ride with a 1200GS, NT1100 fast A and B roads and at no time did the little tiger feel that it was under powered, I am so impressed with this little bike, took it home to Triumph for a visit LOL
