2025 Triumph Tiger Sport 800

On first glance, the Tiger Sport 800 resembles the smaller Tiger Sport 660, as both bikes get similar bodywork, with only marginal differences in terms of dimensions. At 1422mm, the Tiger Sport 800's wheelbase is just 4mm longer than the 660. Even the seat height is the same at 835mm, and in terms of weight, the 800 weighs only 8kg more than the 660.

Interestingly, both motorcycles share the same tubular steel perimeter frame, suspended on the same setup; 41mm Showa USD separate-function cartridge function forks with compression and rebound adjustability, along with monoshock with rebound and pre-load adjustment. Both ends receive 150mm of travel. However, the Tiger Sport 800 gets bigger brakes; 310mm twin discs with a four-piston radial calliper up front, along with a 255mm single disc with a single-piston floating calliper at the rear.

In terms of equipment, the Tiger Sport 800 gets the similar TFT instrument cluster as the Tiger Sport 660, featuring turn-by-turn navigation, bluetooth connectivity, and music streaming. It also gets ride-by-wire throttle, cornering ABS via a six-axis IMU, traction control, cruise control, a quick shifter, and three riding modes; road, rain and sport.

Powering this motorcycle is an 800cc, liquid-cooled, three-cylinder engine based on the 765cc triple-plane engine from the Street Triple 765. This powertrain produces 113bhp at 10,750rpm and 84Nm at 6500rpm.

The motorcycle will be available globally from March 2025 onwards, and if the past is anything to go by, we can expect Triumph to bring this bike here not too long after its global debut. Interestingly, the existence of the Tiger Sport 800 also raises up the question of a Daytona 800, but that's a story for another day.
