Triumph Motorcycles has launched the 2018 Tiger 800 XC and XR line-up at the Milan Motorcycle Show, November 7.
Over 200 upgrades to the chassis and engine have been made.
A new generation engine, along with technology, comfort and style have been the focus of the upgrades.

The 94 horsepower, 800cc triple is mass-optimised and it’s claimed to provide more immediate power delivery.
A shorter first gear ratio should provide a range of benefits for its dual-sport purposes.

A few kilos has also been shed from the exhaust.
Technology improvements come in the way of colour TFT instruments, six riding modes, Brembo front brakes, LED lighting and cruise control updates.

Comfort is expected to be improved by a new seat compound and handlebar setting; Showa suspension, five-position adjustable windscreen and aero diffusers.
New bodywork includes high quality painted finishes with updated side panel designs, along with higher quality badges, graphics and detailing.
The Tiger 800 will be available in three road variants (XR, XRX and XRT), two off-roaders (XCX and XCA), and one low ride height model (XRx).
