Triumph Tiger XRx and XCx Launched in India

Triumph India had showcased the new Tigers at the India Bike Week and we knew they would be launched soon. Finally, the company has launched the bikes and the Tiger XRx is priced at Rs. 11.6 lakh, while the Tiger 800 XCx costs Rs. 12.7 lakh. Then there is also the base model, the Tiger 800 XR which retails at Rs. 10.5 lakh (all prices ex-showroom Delhi).
These new additions sit alongside the Explorer and 800XC models in the Tiger range. The company announced that the motorcycles will come via the CKD route and bookings will start from today.

The Triumph Tiger 800 XCx is what you call a hardcore off-roader version with spoke wheels. It has 43mm upside down forks at the front and WP monoshock at the rear and there are twin discs at the front and a single at the rear. The 800 XCx also comes with switchable ABS as well as adjustable rider seat height and handlebar position.

The Tiger 800 XRx on the other hand gets everything that's aforementioned but misses out on the rugged adjustable suspension. Triumph has also lowered the seat height of the XRx by 10 mm compared to the XCx for better road use. Both the motorcycles come with cruise control and four traction modes.
Both the Tigers are powered by a second generation liquid-cooled, 12-valve, 800cc DOHC inline three-cylinder engine which develops 94bhp and 79 Nm of torque. The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox on both the bikes.
The Tigers come with a 19 litre fuel tank and according to Triumph are 17% more fuel efficient than its predecessor.
