Great comparison. I had the Tiger Trident (great engine) and I had the Tracer 7 (complete bike without any real weaknesses). I like also both but without a center stand the Tiger is a no go (incomprehensible because Tracer can do also with the Akrapovic exhaust)... I was very satisfied with my Tracer 7 and can recommend without doubt...
Great Video. I'm looking to buy my first bike with gears and I'm between Tiger 660 and Tracer 9. Which would you get if you had the budget, for daily commute and trips up to 2-3 hours?
Probably Tracer 9. It is just a more serious bike. It is more powerful as well. If you think you can control and keep yourself away (which is usually hard) from using a sport mode, you’ll be fine. Otherwise Tiger 660 has plenty of everything for you to understand what you want from the bike. And decide what is going to be your next motorcycle. With Tracer you might not be able to understand that as it is too much of a touring bike.
I’d choose Tiger, but not because I own one. Unfortunately, Tracer 7 is a bit behind even in ‘23. They added connectivity, but still don’t have ride modes and design is a bit edgy. Not for my taste. However, Tracer has better engine in my opinion in terms of vibrations.
@@SergeyVikultsev Would you recommend it? I was looking into buying it myself. Does it extend far enough to protect the red part of the fairing when dropped?

Can only agree with your conclusion... 😊
Great comparison - I have the TS660 so I am obviously biased!

lets say both had no option for center stand, would you reconsider your choice? I'm stuck between these 2 bikes and not sure what to get.
@@nexii1479 VStrom 650......
@@rogerkay8603 I'm trying to get a bike with a "fun" engine, sure v Strom gets the job done but that's not my goal when buying a bike
Which do you think was the more fun bike?
@@Fromatic all in all I would go again with the Tracer 7...

@@SergeyVikultsev Thanks. I guess between Tracer 7 ( 2023) and Tiger 660 you will choose Tiger as you are a proud owner?

How would you compare the TS660 to your Tracer 9? Which one do you enjoy riding the most?
I like both! Tiger 660 is more flickable. Super forgiven. Tracer 9 is more powerful and well planted on highways.
Sounds like you can't go wrong with either bike, but your preference is the Tiger?
Tiger is Tiger ;)
Nice video 👍, do you think it is beginner friendly?! Thanx ✌️
Yes, absolutely. If you don’t push it hard, it just buttery smooth friendly bike :)
Tiger 660 🥰🥰🥰🥰💪
What brand is the crash bar?
SW-Motech
