The new Tiger 900 has a distinctive design with a narrower body and full LED lighting

The engine gets a displacement bump from 799 cc to 888 cc, along with new lightweight components, a new T-plane crankshaft, and a new firing order in the in-line three cylinder motor. Compared to the 1-2-3 firing order of the Tiger 800's engine, the new engine gets a 1-3-2 firing order. What has also changed is it offers more peak torque - 87 Nm at 7,250 rpm (up from 79 Nm at 8,050 rpm) and the mid-range gets a 12 per cent boost. Peak power though remains the same with 94 bhp at 8,750 rpm.

The Triumph Tiger 900 Range has three categories - base model, GT, and Rally

The Tiger 900 will be available in two broad variants - GT and Rally. The GT range will replace the Tiger 800 XR range, with alloy wheels, while the Rally will be the corresponding Tiger 800 XC range with wire spoked wheels. One important and very capable difference this time around is that the Tiger 900 Rally gets wire-spoke wheels shod with tubeless tyres.

While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen. The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
