2022 Triumph Tiger 1200 Unveil Details Announced
- The 2022 Triumph Tiger 1200 will be more off-road capable than before
- New engine will get 1-3-2 firing order like the Triumph Tiger 900
- Compact dimensions, superior handling, better off-road capability
Triumph Motorcycles will unveil the all-new 2022 Triumph Tiger 1200 on December 7, 2021. The new Tiger 1200 will be globally unveiled, and is expected to be a completely new model ground up and is likely to get a new frame along with a new inline-triple engine, with the same T-plane crank and firing order of the triple-cylinder engine as the Tiger 900. Triumph has been consistently teasing images and videos of its upcoming Tiger 1200 model, which will be a leaner, and more off-road capable machine than its previous generation model.

The new Tiger 1200's T-plane crank design offsets the engine's firing order (1-3-2) compared to the 1-2-3 firing order of the earlier triple engine. This T-plane crank design was used first in the Tiger 900 gives the bike the low-end grunt and strong throttle character of a v-twin with a stronger mid- and top-range power of a triple. The engine character of the Tiger 900 is quite different from that of the earlier Tiger 800, and purists find the T-plane crank design a little vibey at higher revs, compared to the smooth performance of the earlier 800 cc triple. But more grunt at low revs, gives it better off-road capability, and that is what the new Tiger 1200 is expected to get dollops of, compared to the last generation Tiger 1200.

According to Triumph, the updated engine with the T-plane crank will offer the low-end grunt and throttle response of a twin, with the top-end performance of a triple.
According to Triumph, the new Tiger 1200 has been designed to be the world's most compact, agile and manoeuvrable large capacity adventure motorcycle. Triumph says the new Tiger 1200 will offer maximum road and off-road capability, and will offer a new level of specification, ergonomics and handling not previously seen on any model of the Tiger 1200. More details on performance, weight and features of the new Tiger 1200 will be announced on December 7, 2021, when the new model is unveiled. We expect Triumph to introduce the new Tiger 1200 in India by early 2022.
