Thats not a 675 Tiger, that is an incredibly poor photoshop.

No doubt it will be more similar to the 1050 than to an off road version, but thats not a genuine pic.

The article does say that Triumph is looking at making a more hardcore off road version of the big Tiger, and if that happens the small model may follow.

Hardcore off road 1050 Tiger? Bring it on!

I was really hoping the 675 Tiger would be more like the BMW GS800.  Lighter and more dirt oriented.  I am not interested in a 675 little brother to the 1050 Tiger.  I guess I'll keep the Steamer going for a while yet.

An oft-repeated urban legend posted by wistful Tiger owners, like myself, interested in a lighter addition to our stables. Me, I'll believe it when I see it.

I realize I really don't care about newer or smaller or anything else tigers as the one I have is PERFECT
How can you improve on what I own , a very tall order indeed.
I have owned hundreds of bikes over the years and exported containers of the things overseas in the 90's and the Tiger is the first motorcycle that has not left me wanting more , in other words it does everything I want in a motorcycle and does it very well.
now back to your regular broadcasts as I'm off to eat a bacon butty
