Photos: Triumph Inspiring sportiness meets the best touring comfort
For all motorcycle fans who want a sporty, handy motorcycle for maximum riding pleasure, but don't want to miss out on very good touring comfort, the Tiger Sport 800 is now available. The all-new TRIUMPH has an all-new high-performance three-cylinder engine with 800 cc, 115 hp peak power and 83 Nm of torque.
This powerhouse is housed in a dynamically tuned chassis with adjustable Showa components. The package is rounded off with comfortable ergonomics and a full range of rider-focused technology – including Cornering ABS and Cornering Traction Control, Triumph Shift Assist, Bluetooth connectivity, three rider modes and cruise control.
With the brand new Tiger Sport 800, TRIUMPH Motorcycles presents a motorcycle that is characterized by its unmistakable triple character and a perfect balance between exciting sportiness and the best in long-distance comfort. It offers exhilarating engine performance as well as a precise, precise yet comfortable chassis. The Tiger Sport 800 stands for a motorcycle with unsurpassed versatility, high-quality equipment, a comprehensive package of rider-oriented technology and the best workmanship.
As sporty and dynamic as it is suitable for long-distance travel: the Tiger Sport 800
The all-new 800 cc performance three-cylinder engine delivers a peak output of 115 hp at 10,750 rpm. Even more important for driving pleasure is that 90 percent of the torque is already in the mid-rev range (the peak value of 84 Nm is reached at 8,500 rpm). As a result of this wide torque distribution, the driver feels an immediate, powerful reaction from the engine every time the throttle is turned.
This characteristic is a perfect match for the chassis, which is as sporty, dynamic as it is confidence-inspiring. With high-quality, adjustable Showa suspension components, radial brake calipers and a weight of only 214 kg with a full tank of fuel, the handling of the Tiger Sport 800 is agile and responsive. In addition to exciting performance, the Tiger Sport 800 also offers remarkable comfort on longer tours. The aerodynamically shaped fairing parts offer first-class wind protection and the rider and passenger benefit from ergonomy optimized for comfort with comfortable seats and integrated grab handles for the passenger.
The rider-focused technology ensures that the Tiger Sport 800 delivers optimal performance in every riding situation. With the ride-by-wire throttle grip, the three riding modes and the switchable traction control, the rider can perfectly adapt the bike's power delivery and response to their needs and conditions. The TRIUMPH Shift Assist and intuitive cruise control offer additional comfort, not only on longer journeys. A plus in terms of
Safety is provided by cornering ABS and cornering traction control, which ensure optimal power delivery and control in all conditions. Last but not least, the standard LED light units and the multifunctional LCD and TFI instrument panel with turn-by-turn navigation and Bluetooth connectivity round off the driving experience on the new TRIUMPH.
Newly developed powerhouse: the 800cc three-cylinder engine of the new TRIUMPH
So that every rider can adapt the Tiger Sport 800 to their own riding needs, over 40 accessories are available. They range from an Akrapovič silencer with a titanium shell and carbon fiber end cap to a complete luggage rack with cases that can be perfectly attached to the already inconspicuously integrated mounts and a top case for two helmets. Customers also benefit from low operating costs resulting from inexpensive genuine TRIUMPH parts and class-leading long service intervals of 16,000 km.
Steve Sargent, Chief Product Officer of TRIUMPH, said: "At the heart of the Tiger Sport 800 is a new three-cylinder engine that delivers the performance and driving pleasure that drivers want, whether they are cruising around town on a daily basis or cruising country roads at the weekend. We know that this target group is very demanding and is looking for a motorcycle that is exciting to ride, but also meets all the practical requirements. That's why we've developed a compelling package that includes smooth power delivery and a perfect balance between agility and stability, as well as an accessible seat height, a comfortable upright seating position and integrated luggage options that are crucial for customers in this category. We wanted the rider to feel instant control and precision in every corner. Technologies such as ride-by-wire control, cornering ABS and traction control, as well as three riding modes, ensure the best performance. Add to this TRIUMPH Shift Assist and cruise control, which ensure that the Tiger Sport 800 has everything it needs for a rewarding and comfortable driving experience."
NEW THREE-CYLINDER ENGINE
The three-cylinder engine of the Tiger Sport 800 delivers a peak power of 115 hp and a torque of 84 Nm. It reacts immediately to every turn of the throttle and provides powerful acceleration. Its smooth, linear power delivery is accompanied by a deep, unmistakable triple sound from the stainless steel exhaust.
In addition, a smooth-running six-speed gearbox with TRIUMPH Shift Assist is fitted as standard, ensuring smooth, precise and fatigue-free gear changes when upshifting and downshifting. The slipper clutch gives the driver better control at low speeds and provides a very light yet precise lever feel, which is a big plus, especially in hectic traffic in the city.
EFFORTLESS HANDLING AND BEST AGILITY
The Tiger Sport 800 is equipped with high-quality, adjustable suspension components: A Showa upside-down cartridge fork with 41 mm stanchion diameter and separate function including adjustable rebound and compression damping is used at the front. This is complemented on the rear swingarm by a Showa shock absorber with adjustable rebound damping and generous 150 mm of travel, as well as a hydraulic remote adjustment of the spring preload, which makes it easy to optimise handling with luggage and passenger.
The deceleration of the Tiger Sport 800 is equipped with TRIUMPH 4-piston radial brake calipers and two 310 mm disc brakes at the front, and a single-piston floating caliper with a 255 mm disc brake at the rear. Even when fully loaded with luggage and pillion, these ensure powerful and optimally modulated braking. The lightweight cast aluminium wheels are fitted with Michelin Road 5 Sporttouring tyres for the best grip and confidence in all riding conditions.
The new TRIUMPH makes every tour a pleasure, as it offers a pleasant, upright riding position in combination with a comfortable, ergonomically shaped seat with generous padding, on which both rider and passenger are optimally accommodated. The pillion seat also has integrated grab handles for additional safety for the front passenger. The comfortable seat height of 835 mm and the narrow crotch arch provide confidence during low-speed maneuvers and a reassuringly stable feeling when stationary. The easily adjustable windshield with one-handed operation, integrated wind deflectors for comfort at high speeds and better aerodynamics, as well as an 18.6-liter fuel tank ensure excellent touring suitability.
Touring in the DNA: the journey can start with the original pannier set
DRIVER-CENTRIC TECHNOLOGY
The Tiger Sport 800 comes standard with a complete package of state-of-the-art technology that helps the rider get the most out of their bike in all conditions without sacrificing riding pleasure. Three riding modes – "Sport", "Street" and "Rain" – are available at the touch of a button. Compared to the "Street" setting, the "Sport" mode offers an even more direct throttle response, while the "Rain" mode makes riding safer in wet conditions, as traction control intervenes earlier and throttle response is smoother.
Cornering ABS and cornering traction control provide even more safety in all conditions and the rider can concentrate fully on the fun of riding. This advanced technology calculates the bike's tilt angle using a 6-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) and automatically adjusts the engagement strength for optimal performance and control. On longer journeys, the cruise control provides more comfort and
less fatigue.
The compact multifunction display with an LCD base and an integrated colour TFT screen is easy to read and can be easily operated with the practical switch cube on the handlebar dashboard. The My TRIUMPH connectivity system is fitted as standard and offers convenient arrow navigation, as well as phone and music information, all delivered to the display via Bluetooth.
The LED lighting system with the characteristic daytime running light signature (DRL) ensures excellent visibility and gives the motorcycle a distinctive and aggressive look that attracts attention on any road.
PAINT AND ACCESSORIES OPTIONS – PRICES AND AVAILABILITY AT DEALERS
As with all TRIUMPH motorcycles, a wide range of bespoke accessories will be available for the Tiger Sport 800 right from the start. The spectrum ranges from heated handles to the Akrapovič slip-on silencer. The collection of panniers specially developed for the bike is particularly practical. They attach seamlessly to the inconspicuously integrated rack mounts and fit perfectly into the design of the Tiger Sport 800.
The new TRIUMPH will be launched in four design and colour variants: in addition to the subtly elegant Sapphire Black, there are premium finishes in Graphite, Cosmic Yellow and Caspian Blue, each with contrasting elements in Sapphire Black. From February 2025, the new Tiger Sport 800 will be available at dealerships at prices starting at 11,795 euros. This new model also offers a very attractive overall package – including long maintenance intervals of 16,000 km and a full 4-year manufacturer's warranty without
Mileage limit.
