The Triumph Tiger Sport 660 is a middle-weight Sport touring motorcycle launched in 2022 by British manufacturer Triumph Motorcycles Ltd [1] and using many of the components of its naked sibling, the Triumph Trident 660.
Triumph Tiger is a name used by a number of former motorcycles historically made by the British company Triumph Engineering and more-recent models by its modern successor, Triumph Motorcycles Ltd. Current models:
Rowing is the technique of downshifting more than one gear along with the heel-and-toe technique to provide engine braking and smoother deceleration/braking while in the intermediate gears. This provides for maximum braking when going from a top gear to a much lower gear, and optimal engine rpm for exiting the corner. [citation needed]
The Triumph Tiger 100 was named because it was capable of 100 mph (160 km/h). The best one way speed obtained with the Tiger 110 by The Motor Cycle magazine was 109 mph (175 km/h) – although the speedometer read 114 mph (183 km/h). [1] By 1959, the Tiger 110 was eclipsed by the dual carburettor Bonneville T120 as
Float shifting can reduce clutch wear because it is used so much less (only for starting from a standstill). Conversely, improper engagement of a gear (when the engine and transmission speeds aren't matched) can cause wear on the synchros and lockouts, and damage the gears by physically grinding them together due to a difference in speed.

Almost all quickshifters for upshifts on motorcycles work on the same basis: a microcontroller detects the gear shift action via a sensor, calculates the shift timing, and momentarily cuts off the ignition, resulting in a reduction of the load at the transmission allowing the engine speed to match the transmission speed of the next gear and permit the gear to slip (and engage) into place.
Downshift or downshifting may refer to: The shift of a vehicle transmission into a lower gear. Downshift, the name of three fictional characters in the Transformers ...
