Engineered by Triumph for the super motard motorcycle segment, the 2020 Triumph Tiger 800 XCX utilizes a 800 cc (48.8 cu in) liquid-cooled in-line three, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 95 HP (69.3 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 79 Nm (58.3 lb-ft) at 8,050 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 118.8 HP per liter and a 1,450 rpm working window between peak torque (8,050 rpm) and peak power (9,500 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 XCX measures 205 kg (452 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.46 HP/kg (2.16 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 760 mm (29.9 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,545 mm (60.8 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 19-liter (5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
