6 questions buyers asked about this bike, answered from what owners here report. Last checked 2026-09-09.
Compiled from what owners in Nepal report publicly, then reviewed by Ajit Narayan Singh, Editor. This is owner sentiment, not our own road test, and it carries no star rating — we do not publish one unless verified owners have given us a score. How we compile and check this.
The short version
Owner opinion is genuinely split. The two verdicts above separate what people say about the car from what they say about its price.
High purchase price compared to Japanese adventure bikes in Nepal
The 850 needs servicing every 6K, whereas the 660 stretches to 10K.

It's a solid mid-size adventure-touring bike overall, with a smooth triple engine, comfortable ergonomics and strong road manners, though the premium price and limited off-road chops mean it works best for riders sticking to tarmac and light gravel in Nepal.

It's still on sale internationally as of the last year of reviews, and in Nepal one variant is currently sold new at an ex-showroom price of around Rs 14.33 lakh.
That figure is what owners quoted, not our price. See the verified price for each variant.

Rider reviews suggest it cruises comfortably at highway speeds well above 120 km/h and hits typical big-bike touring speeds, though exact top speed numbers rarely come up in Nepali forums.

Owners abroad have mentioned engine heat in slow traffic, some vibration at higher revs, and normal wear on chain and brake pads, but there's barely any Nepal-specific data yet on recurring mechanical problems.

Triumph runs a premium dealer setup in Nepal, and the Tiger 850 Sport is officially sold here, so buyers get authorised sales and service instead of having to import one individually.

Every line below says which it is. A quote is somebody's own words on the platform named. A summary is ours, drawn from published coverage — and never put inside quote marks.
“I test rode both back to back. I bought the 850 and love it. The 850 is bigger, more comfortable, has loads more low end torque.”
“That Tiger 850 looks to me to be a really excellent motorcycle with all that I would ever need and at an amazing price.”
“If you live where there are a lot of bad roads and potholes, the 850 is the clear choice for its longer suspension travel.”
“850 front forks have got more dive than a submarine. Bigger = heavier. Sold mine and ordered 660 after test ride.”
“The Tiger 850 Sport is a very comfortable, easy to ride adventure bike with enough power from its 85 hp triple to handle touring and commuting.”
Long-term owners say the Tiger 850 Sport offers great value as a straightforward, no-frills bike from a prestigious brand, with good comfort and performance over a year of use.

This bit doesn't carry over
Owners abroad rate this bike's resale, warranty and service cost on their own market's terms. None of that applies here — different duty, dealer network and used market. It is shown separately and never counted above.
