2011 Triumph New Tiger 800 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Engineered by Triumph for the allround motorcycle segment, the 2011 Triumph New Tiger 800 pairs a 799 cc (48.8 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 94 HP (68.6 kW) at 9,300 rpm while maximum torque reaches 78.7 Nm (58 lb-ft) at 7,850 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 117.6 HP per liter and a 1,450 rpm working window between peak torque (7,850 rpm) and peak power (9,300 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

On the scales, the New Tiger 800 measures 209.6 kg (462 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.45 HP/kg (2.23 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,554 mm (61.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 18.93-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
