“As a bike, it is good, but the price would drive away a lot of buyers.”

Owner’s own wordsYouTube comment

“Better Buy A RE Interceptor 650 For Almost 40% Of The Price..”

Owner’s own wordsYouTube comment

“The motorcycle does tend to bottom out very quickly even with suspension set to hard.”

Owner’s own wordsYouTube comment

“The better braking components, additional power, negligible weight increase, adjustable suspension, and relatively small difference in price makes the 800 a much better deal.”

Owner’s own wordsYouTube comment

“Passenger seat is too high and makes turbulence when speed is high.”

Owner’s own wordsYouTube comment

“The triple engine is incredibly smooth, making it a great upgrade for those moving up from smaller displacement bikes in Nepal.”

Price, service, resale and roads — here

  • The bike is officially available in Nepal at an ex-showroom price of Rs 24.99 lakh.
  • Resale value remains speculative due to the niche nature of the premium middleweight segment in the local market.
  • Service support is primarily concentrated in Kathmandu, which is a key consideration for buyers in other provinces.
  • The Triumph Tiger Sport 660 is on sale in Nepal at an ex-showroom price of Rs 24.99 lakh in one variant.
  • At this Nepal price, buyers are likely to compare it closely with larger adventure-tourers and Japanese alternatives before purchasing.
  • The motorcycle is designed mainly for paved roads and touring; buyers should not treat it as a dedicated off-road Tiger for rough Nepali trails.
  • Local service support, spare-part prices and resale demand are important ownership checks because the model has low visible Nepal-specific online discussion.
