2027 Triumph Motorcycles

Triumph has announced four new model lines for 2027: the Bonneville T40, Tiger 1200, Street Triple 798, and Tiger 900. The Bonneville T40 and T40 Black are already revealed, with a dedicated 400cc engine making 30 bhp (32 PS) and 26.6 lb-ft of torque, a 4-inch circular TFT, cruise control, and cornering ABS. US pricing arrives in early 2027, with dealers receiving bikes from late spring 2027.


The rest follow on a schedule: the Tiger 1200 on October 27, the Street Triple 798 (new 798cc triple developed for 2027 Moto2) on November 17, and the Tiger 900 on December 15, 2026. Radar rider aids on the Tigers are only suspected from teaser images, so they are not confirmed.

32 PS and 30 bhp are the same output in different units. Specifications are for the global 400cc model.


Design. The T40 has a teardrop fuel tank, round LED headlight, peashooter silencer, spoked wheels, twin rear shocks, and a classic bench seat. It comes in heritage two-tone colors with hand-painted coachlining. The T40 Black is finished in Matt Pewter Grey and Matt Phantom Black. The US and Canada will not receive the Aegean Blue and Fusion White option.


Technology. Riders get three preset riding modes (Road, Rain, and Eco) plus two customizable modes, lean-sensitive Optimized Cornering ABS, Optimized Cornering Traction Control, and cruise control. The circular TFT adds navigation, phone, and music control. A USB-C socket, a center stand, and a 10,000-mile (16,000 km) service interval round out the package.


Luggage. Triumph says Genuine Triumph Accessories, including low and comfort seats and classic panniers, will be available at launch. If you’d rather plan your own storage, strap-mounted bags are the simplest starting point. Viking lists its Trident tail bag as fitting all Triumph motorcycles, and its Triumph backpacks are another no-hardware option. Viking also makes bike-specific bags for the Triumph Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X, but because the T40 has its own chassis with twin rear shocks, don’t assume those fit. Confirm compatibility before you buy.

2.2. 2027 Triumph Tiger 1200: An Adventure-Touring Update

Best for riders who want a full-size adventure motorcycle for long-distance and mixed-terrain travel.


Confirmed by Triumph: an updated 1200cc triple with more performance, a new look, advanced rider technology, and what Triumph calls the most sophisticated suspension package ever fitted to one of its motorcycles. The Tiger 1200 will be shown at EICMA and Motorcycle Live.


Not yet confirmed: power and torque figures, weight, fuel capacity, seat height, and the equipment list.


About the radar. Teaser images show what looks like a forward-facing radar sensor. Triumph hasn’t said what it does, so don’t treat adaptive cruise control or any other rider-assistance system as standard until the final specifications are published.


Luggage planning. Viking’s current Tiger 1200 luggage collection includes soft Apex panniers, Apex hard side cases, and the Odyssey luggage system. Those are built for current models, and Triumph hasn’t published 2027 dimensions or mounting details, so wait for the full reveal before ordering. In the meantime, Viking’s guide on choosing between hard cases and soft panniers explains how each option works for adventure riding.


When comparing large adventure bikes, check seat height, wet weight, fuel capacity, suspension travel, touring comfort, and available electronic rider aids. Full details arrive on October 27, 2026.

2.3. 2027 Triumph Street Triple 798: A New Engine for the Street Triple

Best for riders who prioritize responsive handling, sporty road performance, and an aggressive naked-bike design.


The Street Triple 798 is one of the biggest changes in the lineup. Displacement moves from 765cc to a new 798cc triple developed for the 2027 Moto2 championship, and Triumph has promised a more performance-focused specification than previous Street Triples.


Not yet confirmed: power and torque, weight, chassis, swingarm and suspension changes, and the full equipment list. Preview images show revised styling, including a new front light, but treat chassis and component details as speculation until November 17, 2026.


A Moto2 connection doesn’t mean race-engine power. Competition engines and road bikes differ in tuning, equipment, and road-use requirements, so be cautious with any claimed horsepower figure before Triumph publishes its own.


Luggage planning. Sport-naked riders usually want compact, low-profile storage. Viking’s street and sportbike luggage page and its tank bags are good places to start, and the guide to luggage for street and sport bikes covers soft versus hard options. Viking hasn’t listed Street Triple 798 products yet, so check fitment once the final dimensions are known.

2.4. 2027 Triumph Tiger 900: An Updated Middleweight Adventure Motorcycle

Best for riders who want one motorcycle for daily roads, touring, and selected off-road routes.


The Tiger 900 sits below the Tiger 1200 in Triumph’s adventure range. Its mix of road comfort and off-road ability makes the update relevant to riders who want one bike for several kinds of trips.


Announced: a more powerful and refined engine, an upgraded chassis, and next-generation connectivity.


Not yet confirmed: engine output, weight, suspension specifications, individual technology features, and variants. Preview images have prompted speculation about a radar sensor, which remains unconfirmed. Full specifications arrive on December 15, 2026.


Luggage planning. Viking’s current Tiger 900 luggage collection covers soft panniers, aluminum side cases, and a rackless adventure touring luggage system for current models. If you’re deciding how to equip a Tiger for long trips, preparing an adventure motorcycle for long-distance travel walks through seats, mounting points, and luggage, and why soft panniers suit ADV riding explains the trade-offs off-road. Wait for the 2027 specifications before assuming any current product will fit.

  • For versatile adventure riding: the Tiger 900, with engine, chassis, and connectivity updates.


If you’re thinking of buying, don’t decide from teaser images or unconfirmed specifications. Compare final figures, seat height, weight, service requirements, equipment, and local pricing once they are published.

5. Planning Luggage for Your New Triumph

A bike’s suitability for touring depends on more than engine size. Comfort, riding position, wind protection, maintenance, luggage capacity, and the roads you ride all matter. Adventure riders can start with Viking’s adventure motorcycle luggage guide and its comparison of hard versus soft luggage for adventure motorcycles. If you’re new to packing for multi-day rides, how to pack a motorcycle like a pro is a practical checklist, and how to choose a motorcycle backpack helps if you prefer carrying gear on your back.


Before adding luggage or accessories to a new motorcycle, confirm the exact model year, mounting requirements, load limits, passenger arrangements, and clearance around the exhaust and suspension. You can browse Viking’s full Triumph luggage range or its Triumph adventure touring collections, and Viking’s guide to choosing the right saddlebags for your bike explains how to match luggage to your riding style. Products listed for current models are not confirmed for 2027 models until the final specifications are out.
