In a thrilling display of power, precision, and fanfare, Triumph Motorcycles unveiled their eagerly awaited 250cc motocross bike at the SuperMotocross World Championship Final held at the iconic Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on Saturday, September 23, 2023.

The honor of piloting Triumph’s new motocross machine fell to none other than Jeff ‘Six Time’ Stanton, a legendary figure in the motocross world who clinched his last championship victory at the Coliseum.

Stanton, who currently serves as the manager of Triumph’s Adventure Experience in the United States, demonstrated the bike’s capabilities with finesse and enthusiasm.

  • Available exclusively in 2023, the Tiger 900 GT Aragón, showcase unique liveries and specifications.

Cervantes, aboard a Tiger 900 Rally Pro, dominated the 450km race, finishing an impressive 1 hour and 6 minutes ahead of his competitors. This victory highlighted the Tiger’s exceptional endurance and performance capabilities, even in the most challenging terrains.

However, while Triumph globally introduced Tiger 900 Rally Aragón edition and Tiger 900 GT Aragon edition, only the latter made its way to the Malaysian market.

That said, the Tiger 900 GT Aragon edition offer the same cutting-edge features, technology, and capabilities found in the highly acclaimed Tiger 900 GT Pro. With their advanced performance and exclusive aesthetics, these special editions exude a fierce and race-ready demeanor.

 

The GT Aragón Edition features a bold and elegant triple color scheme comprising Diablo Red, Matt Phantom Black, and Crystal White. It shares the same twin-color seat design and includes Triumph Tiger and Aragón Edition detailing.

The motorcycle retain the powerful 87 Nm of peak torque at 7,250 rpm and are equipped with a slip and assist clutch, delivering an exhilarating triple performance.

Triumph Motorcycles has unveiled the final installment in its ‘Vision to Reality’ film series, featuring motocross legend Ricky Carmichael and up-and-coming amateur Evan Ferry.

  • The film showcases the last stage of testing for Triumph’s highly anticipated new 250cc motocross bike.
  • The highly-anticipated 250cc MX bike is set to take the brand’s to new heights. 

Ricky Carmichael, known for his unparalleled skills in the motocross world, praised the bike for its balanced design and agility. “It’s really balanced, it’s good how it pulls coming out of the corner, it’s very nimble. When you see a line, boom, you can do it,” Carmichael said in the film. 

Watch the video below: 

He was joined by Evan Ferry, an emerging talent in motocross who has also participated in the bike’s testing program. Ferry seemed especially impressed with the bike’s frame. “They found something special with the frame. I don’t think I’ve ever felt something like that,” Ferry added.

The ‘Vision to Reality’ films have been rolling out as a teaser leading up to the grand reveal of the new 250cc bike. These films offer a behind-the-scenes look, introducing viewers to the team behind the development, as well as glimpses into the all-new aluminum chassis and engine. 

While the release date for the bike remains under wraps, the buzz around the final film suggests that motorcycle enthusiasts are in for a treat when the bike finally hits the market.

 

Triumph Motorcycles has rolled out a new feature for its popular Tiger 1200 range: the Active Preload Reduction.

  • The new advancement adds to the bike’s already advanced Showa semi-active suspension, aiming to give riders greater control.
  • The Active Preload Reduction allow riders to manoeuvre the Tiger better and confidently. 

The feature adjusts the rear suspension preload as the motorcycle slows down, potentially lowering the seat height by up to 20mm when the bike is at a standstill. This allows for an easier reach to the ground, boosting riders’ confidence.

Current seat height options range from 850mm to 895mm depending on the model, but the new feature allows for even greater customisation. 

To activate the Active Preload Reduction, new customers can simply press the ‘Home’ button on the switch cube for one second. Existing Tiger 1200 owners can avail of this update at their next dealer service.

Steve Sargent, Chief Product Officer at Triumph, stated that this on-the-fly feature lowers the bike’s center of gravity at slower speeds, making it more accessible and increasing riders’ confidence.

The Tiger 1200, celebrated for its agility and maneouverability, further solidifies its standing in the competitive adventure motorcycle market with this addition.

It’s finally happening, Triumph Motorcycles was seen testing the all-new Daytona 660 on open roads in Europe, signalling the arrival of a new entry-level sportbike. 

  • The limited-edition Triumph Daytona 765 Moto2 introduced four years ago was the last sighting of the iconic machine. 
  • The latest spyshot confirms the arrival of an all-new Daytona 660 that shares the same engine with the Trident and Tiger Sport 660.

At the heart of the matter is the shared powerplant that underpins the Daytona 660, a 660cc triple engine whose potency has already been demonstrated in the Trident 660 and Tiger Sport 660. With a claimed output of 81 horsepower @ 10,250 rpm, complemented by a robust torque of 63Nm @ 6,250 rpm, this engine configuration is set to awaken the road with its presence. This raw power is tamed by a well-calibrated six-speed gearbox, ensuring seamless transitions in the pursuit of dynamic performance.

A closer examination of the spy photos published by RideApart reveals a remarkable continuity in components across the Trident 660, Tiger Sport 660, and the upcoming Daytona 660. The familiar sight of the 17-inch cast aluminum wheels, the distinctive exhaust (with a test-specific extension perhaps hinting at ongoing adjustments), and the signature mirrors collectively form a nexus of continuity. The rear section and tail, reminiscent of its stablemates, further underscore the design harmony within the Triumph 660 family.

*Triumph Trident 660

Notably, the front fork appears to be conserved from the previous models, reflecting the commitment to engineering excellence that Triumph upholds. Drawing cues from the Tiger Sport 660, the Daytona 660’s dashboard layout bears a resemblance to the former’s configuration, a decision that resonates with the sporty demeanor the Daytona line embodies. The ergonomics have been calibrated for an upright posture, balancing agility with rider comfort.

In terms of aesthetics, the bodywork echoes a logical progression from the last iteration of the Daytona, retaining the captivating headlight and cowl design elements that were last witnessed in 2019. While official details remain elusive due to the covert nature of these snapshots, it’s prudent to deduce that the Daytona 660 will build upon the legacy of its predecessors.

In terms of pricing, we expect the Daytona 660 to priced above the Trident and Tiger Sport 660. 

The anticipation for Triumph Motorcycles’ highly anticipated motocross bike has reached a fever pitch as the company unveils an exciting series of ‘Vision to Reality’ films, offering an intimate look into the meticulous development process behind the bike’s revolutionary chassis and engine.

  • With its launch scheduled later this year, Triumph’s latest masterpiece promises to revolutionize the world of motocross.
  • Triumph has taken enthusiasts on a journey deep into the heart of their innovation hub.

Through these interviews, riders and fans alike gain insights into the engineering marvel that has been meticulously designed to cater to a diverse range of abilities.

Motocross legend and Triumph Ambassador Ricky Carmichael, who is known for his unmatched prowess on the track, highlighted the distinctive features of the new engine. “This engine has its own identity,” Carmichael remarked, “and I think one of the best things about it is the way that it’s designed and developed, which enables riders with a very wide range of abilities to be able to ride the bike. It’s light and compact, and the power delivery is great for all forms of riders.”

Triumph’s 765cc triple engine, initially introduced with the 2017 Street Triple, has proven to be a game-changer in both the street and racing world.

  • Triumph will continue as Moto2 engine supplier until 2029. 

 

The success of this partnership led Dorna to extend Triumph’s contract as the sole engine supplier for the Moto2 series until 2029. Carlos Ezpeleta, Chief Sporting Officer of Dorna, expressed his satisfaction with the collaboration, citing “great racing, record-breaking performances, and impressive reliability” as key factors in the decision.
