Overview[edit | edit source]

Triumph Tiger 1050 S.E.










Triumph has transformed its popular Tiger adventure-sport model with the unveiling of a striking new special edition Taking the ABS version of the Tiger as its base, the SE features a distinctive new Matt Graphite and Matt Black color scheme. the flagship to the Tiger family has even more versatility thanks to the addition of color-matched panniers (with a combined capacity of 44 Liters) and handguards as standard.

The two-tone color scheme enhances the standard Tiger’s looks with an air of classic British sophistication and was inspired by one of Triumph’s company employee benefits: being able to specify a bike with non-standard colors. As Simon Warburton, Triumph’s Product Manager, explains, “Some of the design team were trying out different bodywork colors and while changing panels over they noticed that the combination of Matt Black and Matt Graphite worked really well. From this we developed the unique two-tone scheme that you see, which expresses the individuality of the special edition model perfectly.”

First introduced in 1994 as a versatile dual-purpose machine, the Tiger has evolved into the complete all-rounder that can tour, commute and scratch in equal measures. The Tiger’s commanding off-road style upright riding position is perfect for cutting through the urban jungle, devouring motorway miles and carving through challenging mountain passes.

The latest incarnation of the Tiger is powered by Triumph’s highly-acclaimed 1050cc three-cylinder engine, delivering peak power of 115PS (113bhp) at 9,400rpm and 100Nm (74ft.lbf) torque at 6,250rpm. Adjustable sports suspension and 120 front/180 rear sports tires combined with powerful radial front caliper Nissin brakes endow the Tiger with the agility, handling and braking to let you fully exploit the potent triple. The 20 litre fuel tank provides a realistic 200 mile (320km) range, adding to the Tiger’s practicality and touring ability.
