TRIUMPH REVEALS ALL-NEW TIGER SPORT 800

Triumph Motorcycles has revealed an all-new Tiger Sport 800, with distinctive Triumph triple character and performance, delivering an exciting, engaging, and dynamic ride.

Designed to provide the perfect balance of exhilarating sports performance and long-distance touring capability, the Tiger Sport 800 offers thrilling engine performance, an engaging yet comfortable chassis, unrivalled versatility, and rider-focused technology, with a high specification and a premium finish. 

The brand-new high performance 800cc triple engine delivers 113 HP (115 PS) peak power at 10,750 rpm. More importantly, 90% of the torque is available throughout the mid-range, peaking at 61.9 lb-ft (84 Nm) at 8,500 rpm, delivering a broad spread of torque so riders always feel an instant response.

With a dynamic and confidence-inspiring chassis, adjustable Showa suspension, radial brake calipers, and weighing just 471.8 lbs. (214kg) on the road (wet weight), the Tiger Sport 800’s handling is agile and responsive. Its sculpted aerodynamic bodywork and standard fit wind deflectors provide enhanced wind protection, and the roomy ergonomics for both rider and passenger, with comfortable seats and integrated grab handles, combine to offer excellent comfort on extended rides. 

Rider-focused technology ensures the Tiger Sport 800 delivers optimum performance in any environment. Its three riding modes allow the rider to tailor the responsiveness of the bike to suit the conditions and integrate seamlessly with the ride by wire throttle and switchable traction control. 

The addition of Triumph Shift Assist and Cruise Control offer respite on longer journeys, while Optimized Cornering ABS and Traction Control ensure optimum performance and control in all conditions. Multi-functional LCD and TFT instruments with turn-by-turn navigation and Bluetooth phone connectivity are included as standard to improve the rider experience.  

Enabling each rider to tailor the Tiger Sport 800 to their own riding needs, there are over 40 dedicated accessories available, ranging from an Akrapovič slip on silencer with a titanium wrap and carbon fiber end cap, to a full suite of luggage, including panniers that fit seamlessly to the integrate mounts and a twin helmet top box. Customers will also benefit from a low cost of ownership; a result of the lowest service workshop time in the category, reasonably priced Genuine Triumph Parts, and a class-leading 10,000 miles/16,000km service interval.
