Triumph is all set to add a more powerful 900cc variant to its Tiger range of motorcycles. In the latest update, the British automaker has posted a teaser video, confirming that the new model will be launched on December 3. The teaser also reveals that it will be offered in two variants: long-distance tourer GT and off-road-oriented Rally. Here's our roundup.
How will it look like?
Going by the teaser, the Tiger 900 will feature a naked street design with a tall windshield, golden-colored front forks, a rear pannier rack, and an upswept exhaust. The teaser also highlights the presence of dual-LED headlamps, wing-shaped DRLs, and blacked-out rearview mirrors. Apart from that, the Rally variant is likely to get knobby tires for improved grip on rough terrains.

To handle suspension duties, it will house telescopic forks up front and a monoshock unit on the rear.
