TRIUMPH Tiger 900 (1995-1996) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 1995, the British motorcycle manufacturer launched the Triumph Tiger 900, a dual sports motorcycle made by the British company from 1993 until 1998, when it was replaced by the highly revised Triumph Tiger T709 model.

The bike was in its third year of production. Until 1998, it featured only minor modifications, following the same recipe as the first model, without any significant changes, and packing the same performance, technical, and visual specifications.

The powerful engine and the high seat height represented some notable characteristics of the Triumph Tiger 900. Both factors gave the machine a dominant riding position with the ability to see over traffic.

In the performance department, the 1995 Triumph Tiger 900 had its soul brought to life by an 885cc four-stroke liquid-cooled three-cylinder engine that delivered an output power of 84 hp at 8,000 rpm and 81 Nm (60 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.

The bike's engine was coupled to a six-speed manual transmission that sent all the power to the rear wheel through a final chain drive, pushing the motorcycle to a top speed of 201 kph (125 mph).

On the front, the bike packed a 43 mm adjustable fork and an adjustable shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling.

As for the braking performance, the wire-spoke wheels were fitted with two 276 mm discs paired to dual-piston calipers on the front and a 255 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear, delivering excellent stopping power.
