T
riumph has been fast-tracking the de-
velopment of its adventure bike lineup
over the past few years with one target in
mind: to capture the majority of market share
in both the U.S. and Europe and reign supreme
over its big German competitor. But they've
got a multiple-front campaign on their hands
because the Italians and the Austrians are also
looking to take the same prize. Nothing good
comes from a war, unless the war is for su
-
premacy in a retail segment, and in this case,
you and I are the real winners.
The Tiger 900 isn't new to this battle, but
the engineers at Triumph have thrown another
punch at the competition by reintroducing
their smallest Tiger and giving it more, well,
more punch, since we're using fighting terms.
Thirteen percent more, to be exact. That's a
lot more punch from a motor that was already
good enough to win its class in the Aragon
Rally, the 1000 Dunas Raid, and at the Bassella
Enduro. But Triumph didn't stop there. In addi
-
tion to more ponies, there's also more comfort,
more capability, and more attitude.
