The best of both worlds: TRIUMPH presents the Tiger 1200

With the new Tiger 1200, TRIUMPH presents a motorcycle that will have an important say in the battle for the crown of high-performance adventure bikes. The completely newly developed model family consists of five different enduros, which are not only significantly lighter and more powerful than their predecessor, but also score with an elaborate chassis and a groundbreaking package of state-of-the-art technology. The Tiger 1200 combines a whole new level of on-road performance with dynamic off-road capabilities. The new Tiger 1200 bikes thus offer the best of both worlds – for the first time also with an extra-long range thanks to the 30-litre tanks of the "Explorer" variants.

The new Tiger 1200 is the result of arguably the most ambitious development project in TRIUMPH's history. The result shows that the effort has paid off: The motorcycles of the new Tiger 1200 product family not only offer low weight and excellent performance thanks to the new 1200cc T-plane three-cylinder engine, but also score with the best handling on and off-road. In addition, the new TRIUMPH motorcycles with their outstanding components and groundbreaking technology will fully satisfy even the most demanding friends of high-performance adventure bikes.

Family reunion: the road-oriented Tiger 1200 GT (blue) and the Rally variant for on- and off-road use
The new Tiger series scores with a powerful, new 1200cc three-cylinder engine, which combines rich torque with powerful top performance with its T-plane crankshaft. In combination with a very light chassis, the new Tiger 1200 impresses with an agility that was previously not available in large travel enduros. The good thing about it: The new Tiger 1200 series also offers the strengths of the previous generation – such as the practical and comfortable cardan shaft drive, outstanding long-distance comfort and the perfect touring characteristics of the smooth-running three-cylinder engine platform.
