As per Triumph, the new Tiger benefits from 'high-spec equipment and technology' which has been developed specifically for the riders who demand a more manageable performance at a lower price tag.
The motorcycle packs the familiar 888 cc, inline three-cylinder engine which is found on the Tiger 900 range of bikes. This engine delivers 84 bhp of maximum power at 8,500 rpm along with 82 Nm of peak torque which is available at 6,500 rpm. It is available with a six-speed manual transmission and slip and assist clutch technology. Triumph claims that the powertrain's tractability at low rpm is courtesy of the T-Plane crank with its 1-3-2 firing order.
