Spy shots have emerged of a new 2021 Triumph<br />

Tiger 1200 being put through its paces in<br />

Europe. We’d wager this to be a Rally edition of<br />

monoshock isn’t as clearly visible, however, but<br />

on a premium package like this we’d imagine<br />

this to be Öhlins as well.<br />

slimmed-down aspect of the bike, which looks<br />

to have a lower, less pronounced fuel tank,<br />

revised bodywork, <strong>and</strong> an updated frame <strong>and</strong><br />

subframe.<br />

Tiger line is any indication. For <strong>2020</strong>, the Tiger<br />

800 became the Tiger 900, which we have yet<br />
