Hey, marketing professionals need love too. Dennis already loosed a fair bit of conjecture September 1 when Triumph lifted the first veil on what looks like a heavily redesigned new Tiger 1200. The new bike somehow looks much lighter than the outgoing one. The biggest change appears to be to the rear end, which uses some kind of parallelogram rear suspension system to go with the shaft drive and lay-down, apparently linkageless rear shock. Overall, Triumph’s new 2022 Tiger 1200 looks way less like a touring rig and much more like a serious beast indeed.
