I am always suprised Truimph have not made a Tiger Cub by using the 695 engine from the street triple ?

It makes so much sense.

Now a little birdie (thats me yes) may just have seen something he shouldnt whilst at a testing facility the other day. It may have been a Tiger with some panels missing but from the engine sound and apparent size I would say it was almost certainly a 695 Tiger.

It looked physically smaller and I just cross my fingers and hope and will start saving.

Ok it would have no off road potential but then my dream is off an electric off roader at some point too.

and if the performance of the street triple is anything to go by then this bike would be amazing fun and very tourable.
