About the Triumph Tiger 800

Overview

The Triumph Tiger 800 is an adventure tourer motorcycle from Triumph. It was launched in 2010 and has since been discontinued (production ended around 2020). Mechiee still services it at your doorstep. Adventure bikes are built to travel long distances on good and bad roads alike, typically with long-travel suspension and an upright riding position. With a 799 cc engine it sits in the middleweight 450–800 cc class.

Engine and performance

Power comes from a 799 cc three-cylinder liquid-cooled fuel-injected engine that makes 95 PS at 9,500 rpm and 79 Nm of torque at 8,050 rpm. Its bore is wider than its stroke (74.05 mm x 61.9 mm), a short-stroke layout that generally favours higher revs. It has electric start.

Gearbox

It has a 6-speed manual gearbox, and a chain carries drive to the rear wheel. It uses a wet multi-plate clutch.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

It is built around a tubular steel trellis frame. At the front, the suspension is showa 43 mm upside down forks, 180 mm travel. At the rear, it is showa monoshock with hydraulically adjustable preload, 170 mm rear wheel travel. Braking is by a 305 mm disc at the front and a 255 mm disc at the rear, with dual-channel ABS. ABS on both wheels keeps either tyre from locking under hard braking. It rides on 19-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels with tubeless tyres — 100/90-19 at the front and 150/70-17 at the rear.

Size, comfort and range

The seat is 830 mm off the ground, which is on the tall side, so shorter riders may want to try it first. The wheelbase is 1,530 mm. It carries 19 L of fuel.

Features and equipment

Equipment includes an analogue and digital instrument console and a halogen headlamp. Safety equipment includes traction control and low fuel indicator.

Maintaining the Triumph Tiger 800

  • Routine servicing

    Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

  • Engine oil & filter

    Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.

  • Brake inspection

    With Disc, 305 mm and Disc, 255 mm brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.

  • Chain cleaning & lubrication

    A clean, correctly tensioned and lubricated chain lasts longer and wastes less power. Check slack regularly, especially after riding in rain or dust.

  • Coolant & cooling system

    A liquid-cooled engine relies on coolant. Check the level and look over hoses and the radiator for leaks or damage, and replace coolant as the owner's manual directs.

  • Air filter & spark plug

    A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.

  • Disc brake fluid

    Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.

  • Tyre inspection

    This bike runs 100/90-19 / 150/70-17 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

Triumph Tiger 800 specs explained

What the technical terms on this page mean.

ABS
Anti-lock braking system. It stops a wheel locking up during hard braking so the rider can keep steering. A single-channel system works on one wheel, usually the front; a dual-channel system works on both.
OHC / SOHC / DOHC
How the engine's valves are operated. OHC and SOHC mean one overhead camshaft; DOHC means two, which usually allows higher revs and more power from the same size.
Fuel injection
Petrol is delivered by an electronically controlled injector instead of a carburettor, which helps with easy starting and steady fuel economy.
Liquid cooling
Coolant circulates through the engine and a radiator, keeping temperatures steadier than air alone, especially in traffic or under load.
Monoshock
A single rear shock absorber that does the work of a pair.
Upside-down fork
A front fork mounted the opposite way round to a conventional one, with the thicker tubes at the top. It is typically stiffer under braking and cornering.
Trellis frame
A frame built from tubes arranged in triangles, which gives strength without much weight.
Tubeless tyres
Tyres with no inner tube. A small puncture usually loses air slowly, which makes roadside repair easier.
Bore x stroke
The cylinder's width and the piston's travel. A larger bore relative to stroke tends to favour revs; a longer stroke tends to favour low-speed pull.
Compression ratio
How much the fuel-air mixture is squeezed before it is ignited. It is one of the factors behind an engine's efficiency and power.
