Special edition adventure bikes

Triumph has recently released their newest addition to the Tiger series, further expanding the Tiger 1200 lineup with Desert and Alpine editions. These adventure bikes are still powered by the same 1,215 cc triple-cylinder DOHC engines that have powered the Tiger Explorer since 2012. While the engine is still the same, it now boasts a claimed peak power of 141 Ps vs the 136 Ps of its predecessor.

PH availability

Last October, the Autohub Group announced that they will be officially distributing Triumph Motorcycles here in the country after five years of “courtship” with the British motorcycle maker. Autohub Group also confirmed that their motorcycles will be more competitively priced vs. the other premium motorcycles in the Philippine market today since they will be importing from Triumph's 17-year-old Thailand factory, taking advantage of ASEAN Free Trade Agreements (AFTA). Philippine pricing for the 2020 Tiger 1200 Desert and Alpine editions are not yet available as of press time.
