Triumph has revealed the new Tiger 1200 ahead of the bike going on sale globally. The new Tiger 1200 will be offered in two model ranges — the road-biased GT and off-road focused Rally ranges — with both additionally available as ‘Explorer’ models, which come with a larger 30-litre fuel tank, against the standard 20-litre tank.
There are five variants in total — GT, GT Pro, GT Explorer, Rally Pro and Rally Explorer. The new Tiger 1200 uses a brand new chassis that now weighs 5.5kg less. The bike now uses a new ‘tri-link’ swingarm and shaft drive setup to help reduce weight over it’s predecessor’s single-sided swingarm. Triumph says that overall weight savings have made the bike up to 25kgs lighter.
The new 1200’s design is reminiscent of the Tiger 900s and the new windscreen is designed to be adjustable by one hand. The handlebar is now 20mm wider than before and the Explorer’s handlebars will be 16mm higher.
