Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro Bond Edition

Triumph Announces Ultra-Exclusive Tiger 900 “Bond Edition” The high-spec Tiger 900 adventure bike gets the 007 treatment.

Triumph’s official partnership with the James Bond franchise will see the Scrambler 1200 and the Tiger 900 spice up the chase sequences in the forthcoming 25th Film of the 007 saga, No Time To Die. To celebrate this collaboration, Triumph is introducing a new limited edition model — The Tiger 900 Bond edition.

The exclusive bike is based on the high-spec Tiger 900 Rally Pro model and will be strictly limited to just 250 motorcycles globally. Each of these special edition motorcycles are individually numbered and come with a signed certificate of authenticity.

The Tiger 900 Bond Edition features a unique and eye-catching Matt Sapphire Black paint scheme and 007 graphics, enhancing the bike’s look. Each motorcycle also comes with a premium, billet machined handlebar clamp, with the bike’s unique limited edition number.

Finally with the dedicated styling details, the special-edition machine includes premium ‘blacked out’ detailing throughout. The frame, headlight finishers, side panels, sump guard, pillion footrest hangers, auxiliary lamp shrouds and engine guards all have a premium, black finish.

Enhancing the Bond Edition theme, the new limited edition Tiger 900 features a custom 007 start-up screen animation and heated rider and pillion seat, crafted with unique Bond Edition branding.

Along with all of the Tiger 900 Rally Pro’s specifications, the new limited edition also comes with an additional pair of Michelin Anakee Wild tires (in addition to the factory fitted Bridgestone Battlax tires), and a premium Arrow Silencer featuring a lightweight brushed stainless steel body with a carbon end cap and strap.

Tiger 900 and Scrambler 1200 motorcycles feature in key stunt scenes in the 25th James Bond film No Time To Die. A major collaborative partnership between Triumph Motorcycles and EON Productions was announced in December 2019.

This has brought together two great British icons – 007 and Triumph Motorcycles – for the very first time.

Here’s an insight into our partnership, including an exclusive interview with stunt co-ordinator Lee Morrison about how the Scrambler 1200 and Tiger 900 bikes performed in the movie.

NO TIME TO DIE
The 25th James Bond film was filmed in 2019 in several locations including Jamaica, Norway, Italy and the UK, and Triumph is the only motorcycle partner in the movie. This is our first partnership with a Bond film and we join other vehicle partners including Jaguar Land Rover.

Triumph have a long illustrious history in designing, developing, advancing and manufacturing premium motorcycles with exceptional levels of performance, capability and handling. The James Bond stunt team required high performance bikes for some key action sequences and Triumph were the perfect fit.

Just like the character originally created by Ian Fleming, Triumph Motorcycles share a well-established and instantly recognisable British authenticity, fashioned and proven over time, that resonates globally. These shared attributes make Triumph Motorcycles a perfect partner for the James Bond movie franchise.

For months, the Triumph design workshop team collaborated behind closed doors with the stunt team from the film to configure several feature motorcycles for the movie, including special preparations of Tiger 900 and Scrambler 1200 models to handle the extreme and dynamic action sequences – and the film’s world-class stunt riders – demanded.

The films stunt coordinator Lee Morrison was a key member of the movie production team. We asked him how he came to choose Triumph motorcycles for the crucial Bond action sequences:

“First and foremost, as a stunt co-ordinator I have to be sure that we can achieve the action on that motorcycle. Is it agile and powerful enough for the stunt riders to achieve what I want them to? And also, crucially, does it fit the story of the film in a way that’s credible onscreen.

We loved the look of the Scrambler 1200, and we already knew we would use those in No Time To Die, but then Triumph offered us several prototypes of a bike that hadn’t yet been launched at that time, and that was the Tiger 900. The whole stunt team realised very quickly that these were amazing bikes. We rode those bikes so much in Off-Road Pro mode and the things are amazing... absolutely incredible.”
