EICMA 2013: Triumph Tiger 800XC Special Edition

New paintwork, red main frame and cockpit infill, black handlebars and more

Triumph says that the special edition of the Tiger 800XC takes the tough and capable characteristics of the standard 800XC model and adds a distinctive, fresh look.

The view the Tiger 800XC offers of the road ahead is now framed by black finished handlebars and matt-finished Diablo Red cockpit infills.

At first glance, the new Volcanic Black paint looks like a simple black finish, but when the lines catch the light you'll see a burst of red metallic highlights. Adding to the unique look is a  red main frame plus black exhaust heat shields and black pillion grab rails.

The look may be different but the performance is still the same, with XC special edition powered by Triumph's long-stroke, 799cc triple engine. A sophisticated anti-lock braking system is provided as standard and can be deactivated for off-road riding.

The tough steel chassis is equipped with long travel 45mm upside down front forks and rear suspension unit, plus a 21-inch spoked front wheel, for maximum ground clearance and the ability to cope with rough trails.

The same qualities that make the Tiger 800XC so competent off-road also lead to an excellent road bike. The rider can adjust both the handlebar position and seat height, while hard and soft luggage options cater for those who want to take the 'kitchen sink' on their two-wheeled adventures. An extensive range of accessories allows the rider to tailor their bike exactly to meet their needs.

The Tiger 800XC Special Edition comes with an unlimited mileage, two-year factory warranty.
