2015 Triumph Tiger 800 XC Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Triumph's super motard motorcycle platform, the 2015 Triumph Tiger 800 XC relies on a 799 cc (48.8 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 95 HP (69.3 kW) at 9,300 rpm while maximum torque reaches 79 Nm (58.3 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 118.9 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 Tiger 800 XC measures 215 kg (474 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.44 HP/kg (2.26 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 845 mm (33.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,545 mm (60.8 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 19-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 5.74 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 331 km (206 miles) between fill-ups.

Within MotoLibrary's Triumph archive, this model family spans 4 indexed model years from 2013 to 2016, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
