    The new Tiger 800 family range

    The new, significantly updated Tiger 800 XC and XR family has once again pushed the boundaries of this world-renowned range with over 200 chassis and engine upgrades. These are complemented by a suite of major off-road improvements that work hand-in-hand with carefully crafted on-road enhancements.

    Triumph has specifically targeted improvements to technology, comfort, and style alongside the introduction of a new generation engine that maximises the rider experience. As a result, the new
    Tiger 800 is better in every way – both on the road and off road.

    Paul Stroud, Chief Commercial Officer for Triumph Motorcycles said; "We've developed a host of major new technology and performance updates designed to enhance the new Tiger 800's capability both on and off-road. With developments that complement the Tiger's accessible and agile, easy riding style, as well as its existing distinctive Tiger poise and presence, the new 800
    line-up is built for maximum adventure – every single day."

    Benefits of the new Tiger 800

    Major technology advances

    Every new Tiger 800 represents a huge step-up in rider technology with improvements including full-colour TFT instruments, up to six riding modes, high-specification Brembo front brakes, optimised suspension configurations, handlebar-mounted
    switchcubes incorporating elegant backlit buttons, distinctive signature all-LED lighting, updated cruise control, enhanced chassis, and premium bodywork.

    Next generation engine

    A mass-optimised 800cc Triple engine now gives more immediate power delivery and a peak power output of 95PS. It
    has even more character and a lighter exhaust system with a sportier soundtrack that together transform the new generation engine. There is a new, shorter ratio first gear to enhance off-road traction, all-road low speed responsiveness, and more immediate acceleration that gives the rider a truly thrilling feel. In addition, the new OffRoad Pro riding mode on the XC models allows an advanced rider to take complete control off road.

    An added dimension to comfort

    Triumph has enhanced the rider ergonomics across the whole
    Tiger 800 range. This includes moving the handlebars back by 10mm for a more commanding riding position, higher specification Brembo front brakes, a range of premium WP or Showa suspension components fitted across our range, new handbook-approved off-road tyre specification fitment, new five-position adjustable windscreen and aero diffusers for segment-leading aero protection, and a new seat compound giving all-day riding comfort.

    Tiger 800 core technology

    The Tiger 800’s trademark handling and category-defining core technologies are the foundation of this bike's superb riding experience. All the Tigers' essential adventure standards are maintained with ABS, traction control, ride-by-wire throttle, cruise control, heated seats and grips (on selected models), power sockets, and a two-position seat height (810-830mm on XR models, 840-860mm on XC models) adjustable by 20mm to
    suite riding style and terrain, and a low ride height XRx model variant that at 760 mm is 50mm lower than the standard XR range of seats.

    Tiger 800 models

    From the road-focused Tiger XR,
    mid spec XRX and range topping XRT, to the off-road hungry Tiger XCX and fully-loaded XCA – not forgetting the XRx low ride height model – there is a Tiger 800 for every person, every ride and every adventure.
