Having introduced the 2009 range of sport and naked bikes, Triumph now presents a promotional video inviting riders to go their own way. The video features the new Street Triple R among a multitude of choices: Daytona 675, Street Triple, Speed Triple, Tiger and Sprint ST.
For 2009, Triumph has prepared a special edition version of the Tiger while also keeping the standard version in production. Obviously, we’re interested in the new, two-tone painted Tiger (that’s pretty much all that makes it special) which is a result of Triumph’s design department. Color combination of Matt Graphite with Matt Black is claimed to set the bike apart from the crowd and we reckon that it has all the chances to do so.
In what concerns the standard Triumph Tiger, this goes on with no changes as a 2009 model year, but gets new color options consisting in Fusion White, Jet Black and Blazing Orange. Also, customers can also choose either they want the ABS brakes or not.
What they won’t decide for is the 1050cc three-cylinder engine producing 113bhp at 9,400rpm and 100Nm at 6,250rpm as that would actually be the main reason why they will buy the bike. Also, the Triumph Tiger features sports suspensions and rubber as well as Nissin brakes, making it an adequate sport-touring bike rather than the dual-purpose one that first made an entry back in 1994.
The Triumph Tiger is best characterized by its three major abilities: to scratch, tour, and commute. It stands as the perfect mixture of those very necessary features which makes it a leader in its class. > More

The Tiger 1050 was officially launched to the press back in November in Marbella, Southern Spain. Triumph chose this location based on its warm and sunny climate – perfect for testing bikes. However the weather was against the UK journalists who had to test the Tiger 1050 in torrential rain – apparently the worst weather Marbella has seen for 20 years!
Chris Moss, writing for Motorcycle Sport and Leisure magazine, saw the silver lining on the dark clouds in the sky as the wet weather (...) > More
