2011 Triumph Tiger 1050 ABS
The 2010 Tiger 1050 ABS is a natural way to evolve for the base big-bore Tiger: it brings in the convenience and extra safety of the anti-locking brakes, making the bike easier to control on difficult surfaces. While the Tiger 1050 is a very compliant machine which is engineered to provide a smooth ride over both highway and back roads, adding ABS makes it even better for riding in the wet.
The rest of the machine is unchanged and can still carry everything but the kitchen sink. At the same time, it also makes a great commuter for daily rides, as its powerful engine and nimble character make it a good urban slicer, too.
