2021 Triumph Tiger 850 Sport Launch Date Revealed

Triumph Motorcycles India will launch the Triumph Tiger 850 Sport on February 9, 2021. It will be the new entry-level model in the Tiger 900 range. In fact, the company listed the Tiger 850 Sport on its website in December 2020 itself. The Tiger has been a popular ADV in India and a new base-variant of the Tiger 900 range has the potential to do well in the country. Triumph Motorcycles says the new Tiger 850 Sport is the perfect combination of the Tiger 900's triple engine set-up and tailor-made high specification equipment and technology, which offers intuitive and all day easy-riding capability.

The idea is to offer the Tiger 900 triple experience at a more accessible price and manageable performance. The Tiger 850 Sport shares the same basic engine as the new Tiger 900 range, so the 888 cc, inline three-cylinder engine remains the same, but with a slightly different state of tune to give it more accessible and manageable delivery of usable power and torque. On the Tiger 850 Sport, the engine makes 84 bhp at 8,500 rpm, while peak torque is 82 Nm at 6,500 rpm. The engine is said to offer smooth and linear power and torque delivery from low engine speeds and across the rev range.
