Description

SE. Special Edition. A Tiger but more. An even more practical version of our ultimate all-rounder.

Taking the standard Tiger 1050 as its base, the SE adds the choice of two exclusive colour schemes and a higher specification that includes our sophisticated ABS system as standard, colour matched panniers and handguards.

Usability has always been a byword for the Tiger. The torquey 1050cc three cylinder engine delivers an infectious sound and feel, boasting the performance specification of a sports bike: braced swingarm, fully adjustable upside down forks, remote spring preload and adjustable rear monoshock, twin floating front discs with four piston radial calipers and 17 inch wheels with 120/180 profile sports tyres.

The tall riding position gives a commanding view over the traffic, making overtaking and filtering easy through rush hour traffic. Hit the highway and you will revel in the muscular 1050cc triple which, combined with powerful brakes and a high-specification sporty chassis, make carving through the twisties a real pleasure. And for the long haul the ergonomically designed seat with screen and fairing ensures a comfortable ride regardless of distance.
