Triumph Tiger 1200 range updated; prices start from ₹19.38 lakh

Triumph has updated the Tiger 1200 range to provide it with a host of improvements and refinements. This includes an update to the T-Plane triple engine, additional equipment on the GT Pro and Rally Pro models and updates for enhanced comfort and ergonomics. Prices for the updated Triumph Tiger 1200 range start from ₹19.38 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi)

When it comes to the engine, Triumph’s 1160cc triple engine has been updated to provide better low speed control and refinement. This includes changes to the crankshaft, alternator rotor and balancer to increase engine inertia, in addition to some associated calibration changes. The clutch design has also been updated.

Triumph has also improved on the comfort of the Tiger 1200 range by offering dampened handlebars and risers on the GT Pro and Rally Pro models. Earlier, these were available only on the Explorer models. In addition to this, the seat has also been redesigned to provide more space for the rider. You can also opt for the accessory low seat, which reduces the seat position by 20mm, to give a lowest seat height of 830mm on the GT Pro and 855mm on the Rally Pro models. A longer clutch lever has also been introduced. Triumph has also increased the cornering ground clearance of the Tiger 1200 GT Pro and GT Explorer models by lifting the footpeg positions and moving them closer to the bike. The new Active Preload Reduction feature is now available across the Tiger 1200 range, which reduces the rear suspension preload as the motorcycle slows to a stop, lowering the seat height by up to 20mm by pressing the Home button on the switch cube. 

The Tiger 1200 is now available in four variants, with new colours. The Tiger 1200 GT Pro and GT Explorer are now available in Carnival Red, as well as the previous options of Snowdonia White and Sapphire Black. The Tiger 1200 Rally Pro and Rally Explorer are now available in a new Matt Sandstorm and Jet Black colours, in addition to the Matt Khaki.
