Triumph teases new Tiger 1200 and 900 models for 2027

Triumph has made some interesting choices for its new Tiger 1200 and 900 models, with full reveals expected before the end of the year

Triumph adventure models have been given an overhaul, with the new-look models expected to arrive in Australia next year.

Exact specifications are being kept under wraps for now, but photos released by Triumph show significant makeovers for both the Tiger 1200 and Tiger 900 models.

The 2027 Triumph Tiger 1200 range will be revealed in full on October 27, 2026, but Triumph says it will feature an “updated 1200cc triple engine with increased performance and refinement”, as well as the “most sophisticated suspension package” ever fitted to a Triumph motorcycle.

Triumph's Tiger 1200 range is expected to have some significant updates for 2027

They are some fighting words from Triumph as it attempts to compete with the latest generations of the BMW R 1300 GS, KTM 1390 Super Adventure R and Ducati Multistrada V4 models.

From the photos, it appears Triumph has opted for a 19-inch front wheel on the Rally Explorer model, rather than the 21-inch wheel of the current model. It also seems that a front-facing radar system is on the cards.

The new Triumph Tiger 900 range will be revealed on December 15

The Tiger 900 range, on the other hand, has received a similar aesthetic makeover, with Triumph promising a “more powerful and refined engine”, an upgraded chassis, enhanced rider technology and “next-generation” connectivity as standard.

A full reveal of the Tiger 900 range is expected to take place on December 15, but photos suggest the 900s will also have the capability for radar technology.
