The Triumph Tiger 1200 2027 is the as yet unannounced facelift of Triumph's large adventure tourer. Photos from the start of Sam Sunderland's round-the-world record attempt show new LED headlights, a redesigned beak, a revised screen and a front sensor pointing to front-facing radar with adaptive cruise control. Engine and chassis appear unchanged: the 1,160 cc T-plane triple with 150 hp, semi-active Showa suspension and shaft drive.
