With a whole pack of extras and neat touches
the Tiger Explorer XC has an extra rugged style.
All its basics have been thoroughly proven on
the Tiger Explorer. Like the 1215cc three-cylinder engine with
its broad spread of torque, shaft drive, the long fuel range.
Then there’s the class-leading handling and the genuine off-road
ability.
You still get the high levels of
sophisticated rider aids too, like switchable ABS, traction
control and cruise control.
On top of all this you get unique spoked
wheels for added off-road capability and other equipment such as
a sump guard, fog lights, and hand guards to add to your
adventure.
Based on the Triumph Tiger Explorer, the
Tiger Explorer XC extends its already remarkable all-round
flexibility to allow you to travel even further off the beaten
path with confidence and safety, but without compromising the
base model’s already comprehensive long-distance road ability.
The Tiger Explorer XC features in addition to the specification
of the Tiger Explorer:
Wire spoked 19 inch front and 17 inch rear
wheels and tubeless tyres
High impact adventure hand guards
55w dual fog lights
Tough durable steel engine bars
Heavy gauge aluminium sump guard
Performance
Like the Explorer, the Tiger Explorer XC gets
our big, proven 1215cc three-cylinder engine. Built with modern
technology to be strong, dependable and have the low maintenance
levels you need on long adventures.
You can get plenty of torque and power from
the Tiger Explorer XC, a hefty 137PS and 121Nm. And, not just
that, it’s useable torque low down in the rev range where you
need it
Double Overhead Cams
Double overhead camshafts operate the four valves per cylinder
for an engine that does what it was made to do even when the
bike is fully loaded with rider, passenger, a full complement of
luggage and facing a steep mountain climb.
Shaft Drive
We designed a rugged transmission comprising of a strong
six-speed gearbox and an exceptionally tough shaft final drive
for the Tiger Explorer XC. This gives you smooth power delivery
yet is capable of dealing with the shocks and knocks it can face
off-road.
And, it hardly needs any maintenance, so you can get on with
your ride without worrying about it.
Fuel Efficiency
As a Triumph, the Tiger Explorer XC is highly efficient too,
giving you 68 mpg at a steady 56mph and, just as importantly, it
comes complete with the engaging character and soundtrack you
expect from a Triumph triple.
Ride-By-Wire
Designed to be as tough as the rest of the Tiger Explorer XC,
the fuel injection is controlled by a ride-by-wire throttle
system using computer control to give you the torque you need in
the most efficient, predictable way.
Frame
We built the tubular steel frame of the Tiger Explorer in the
same style as other Triumphs. But it's made extra tough to deal
with the stresses of off-road riding and on the road too, where
you can load the Tiger Explorer heavily and still ride at high
speeds or on badly maintained back roads in full control and
comfort.
Suspension
The suspension on the Tiger Explorer is built to cope with any
kind of riding condition. We used tough 46mm forks at the front
with an extended 190mm of travel, ideal for rough roads and long
distance comfort.
And at the rear, the single shock provides 194mm of travel and
features a hydraulic remote preload adjuster and adjustable
rebound damping.
Brakes
Braking is looked after by a pair of 4-piston callipers and twin
305mm discs at the front backed up by a single rear disc, all
controlled by our advanced, switchable electronic ABS system.
Wheels and Tyres
The aluminium rim, wire-spoke wheels on the Tiger Explorer XC
are lightweight and highly resilient, 17 inches diameter at the
rear and 19 inches at the front, and come fitted with tubeless
tyres.
Riding Position
The riding position is perfect. High, upright and dominant with
wide bars and plenty of space.
Even your passenger also gets plenty of space as well as large
grab handles for their reassurance and safety.
Handling
The Tiger Explorer is such an easy, natural handling bike. Be it
low speed corners or fast sweepers, the Explorer shows
outstanding handling manners. The wheelbase is long at 1530mm so
you have plenty of room on board and excellent stability.
Sump Guard
The strong aluminium plate sump guard gives the bike extra
protection off road.
Engine Protection Bars
The black engine protection bars give the bike extra protection
off road.
Hand Guards
Hand guards protect you from branches while off-road and stones
thrown up by cars on-road. And you’ll find their wind protection
useful in cold conditions.
Fog Lights
High performance 55w dual fog lights increase visibility for
added security in poor riding conditions.
Traction Control
The Tiger Explorer XC also comes with traction control as
standard to give you added safety and confidence in slippery
conditions. The system reassuringly keeps wheel slip to a
manageable level by reading the speeds of both wheels, along
with numerous engine parameters, and adjusts performance to
assist the rider in maintaining a safe course.
Cruise Control
Cruise control is fitted to all Tiger Explorers, easing fatigue
over long distances and optimising fuel efficiency.
Switchable ABS
The standard ABS system on the Tiger Explorer XC uses the latest
technology to prevent wheel lock-up in any condition you find
yourself in. And it can be switched off for off-road use, in
case you want to lock a wheel up deliberately.
950W Alternator
As a serious all-weather rider you would expect to be able to
use various electrical devices, so the electrical system is
powered by a class-leading 950W alternator. Plenty of power for
you to use on the optional heated grips, spotlights, and seats.
Immobiliser
Just in case your Tiger Explorer XC attracts the wrong kind of
attention, we’ve added a high technology security system. It
detects a microchip in the key body and if it's not present the
ignition system is disabled.
This prevents a copy of the correct key being used to switch the
bike on.
Screen
Steady motorway speeds are made easy by the aerodynamically
designed adjustable screen, which fends off the slipstream
without creating undue turbulence or excessive wind noise.
Instruments and Computer
The Tiger Explorer tells you everything you need to know on a
journey. The LCD instruments use handlebar mounted thumb
switches with up/down scroll facility and feature a
comprehensive onboard computer including 2 trip meters
displaying distance covered, journey time, average speed,
average fuel consumption, instant fuel consumption, range to
empty. Also visible on the LCD screen is the odometer readout,
tyre pressure monitoring system readout (if fitted), heated seat
power indicator, cruise control operation information and
service interval. There is also an on-screen alert for freezing
temperatures as well as a numeric readout for ambient
temperature.
12v Power Socket
We’ve added a 12V power socket close to the ignition switch for
a GPS unit or heated clothing.
Adjustable Seat Height
We made the seat broad, flat and easily adjustable to either
837mm or 857mm - no tools needed. So you can get comfortable
whatever your size, while even the bars and levers adjust for
finer tuned ergonomics.
Payload
The Tiger Explorer XC’s payload is an incredible 222kg. Ideal
for those long adventures.
