Both are comfortable sport tourers with the same seat height, tank and roomy riding position. The real difference is the engine: the 800's 798cc triple pulls from low revs and sings at the top, with an adjustable fork and floating discs to match.

Choose the 660 if…
- You want an easy, comfortable all-rounder.
- You commute all week and tour on the weekend.
- You like a triple with character to burn.

Choose the 800 if…
- You like to tour quickly.
- You want 18 hp more and strong pull from low revs.
- You want the adjustable fork and floating front discs.
Which one fits your riding style?
Here's where the difference shows up on the road.
Freeway and longer trips

Weekend back roads
Reviewers describe the 800 as a Tiger Sport 660 with Street Triple pace, and say its weight seems to disappear on a twisty road. The 660 is just as comfortable, with character to burn.

The commute
Both have the same comfortable, upright position and seat height. The 660 is 7 lb lighter, and its triple is smooth and easy in traffic.
