  • Latest KYB suspension with revised settings and new tool-free adjustability
  • New precision-tuned Neken triple clamps for the TF 250-E further refine front-end performance
  • Powertrain updates improve shifting and control
  • Premium Brembo, Galfer and ProTaper components with advanced rider technology fitted as standard
  • New all-black bodywork and new graphics
  • 2026 international racing success includes 15 victories and 62 podium finishes

Triumph Motorcycles has unveiled the 2027 TF 250-E and TF 450-E, updating its race-proven Enduro platform with focused improvements to chassis performance, powertrain feel and rider control.

For 2027, both models gain the latest KYB suspension, with revised spring and valving settings and tool-free adjustability, alongside gear change improvements, a revised sight glass, new fork guards and new all-black bodywork with updated graphics. Both models also receive a calibration update to further refine performance and riding characteristics.

Model-specific updates include precision-tuned Neken triple clamps, a new clutch pack and bearing, and a new valve guide design for the TF 250-E. The TF 450-E gains a new clutch pack, bearing and hose, together with new rocker shafts and a new valve guide design. 

Developed in close collaboration with World Enduro Champions Paul Edmondson and Iván Cervantes, Triumph’s enduro range has already achieved significant success in international competition, while remaining accessible and rewarding on real-world trails.

Steve Sargent, Chief Product Officer, Triumph Motorcycles, said: “Racing these bikes over the last two years, we’ve had some fantastic results. With riders like Jonny Walker, Morgan Lesiardo and Leo Joyon pushing them at the highest level, supported by Paul Edmondson and our hugely experienced enduro team, we’ve used that experience to further refine the 2027 bikes.

“The changes to the suspension, powertrain and rider controls are all about giving riders greater control and confidence, while retaining the performance that's already been proven in competition.”

ENDURO POWER
For 2027, Triumph has introduced a series of targeted powertrain updates across both models, refining the clutch, gear change and engine. The TF 250-E gains a new clutch pack and bearing, a new steel selector star, and a revised gear pedal lever for improved ergonomics, together with a new valve guide design.

The TF 450-E receives a new clutch pack, bearing and hose, while gear change updates include a new selector star, detent arm, gear selector shaft and revised gear pedal lever. Engine updates for the TF 450-E include new DLC-coated rocker shafts for improved durability and a new valve guide design and material. Both models also receive revised engine calibration to further improve rideability.

The TF 250-E combines high-revving enduro performance with a strong, linear power delivery, engineered to provide traction, precision and control. The TF 450-E delivers class-leading power with strong, usable performance developed for top-level enduro competition.

Both use enduro-specific six-speed transmissions, with their respective engine and transmission characteristics developed to deliver controlled performance across technical terrain and faster sections.

CHASSIS PERFORMANCE
One of the most significant updates for 2027 is the introduction of the latest KYB suspension across both models. Revised suspension settings are combined with new tool-free adjusters, making it quicker and easier for riders to make set-up changes. Both bikes also gain new fork guards to provide improved protection. The TF 250-E also gains new lightweight 7075-T6 forged Neken triple clamps, precision-tuned to further refine front-end performance.

The updates build on a chassis package developed specifically for enduro, balancing low-speed agility with confidence-inspiring stability at higher speeds.

The suspension package combines 48 mm KYB AOS coil-sprung forks with 300 mm of travel and fully adjustable compression and rebound, together with an adjustable piggyback rear shock.

The bikes are equipped with D.I.D DirtStar rims, Triumph-designed lightweight 6000-series machined aluminium hubs and Michelin enduro tyres, completing a chassis package designed to provide control and feedback across changing enduro terrain.

PREMIUM ENDURO PACKAGE
For 2027, both models gain new all-black bodywork with a striking new graphics scheme, alongside a revised sight glass. These updates complement a premium standard specification that combines Triumph’s unique lightweight aluminium spine frame, advanced rider technology and enduro-specific ergonomics.

The spine frame has twin cradles, engineered specifically to balance flex, stability and rider feedback. Internal machining allows precise control of wall thickness to reduce mass and tune stiffness, while the frame's mass-optimised construction provides a responsive platform without compromising strength. Enduro-specific swingarm geometry and a forged and machined linkage system work with the frame to deliver predictable rear-wheel behaviour, traction and balance.

Traction Control, Launch Control, Quickshifter and Dual Engine Maps are fitted as standard, managed through the Athena ECU with GET Power Assist. Additional engine maps and further set-up options can be accessed through the optional Wi-Fi tuning functionality. A complete Brembo braking system works with Galfer brake discs to deliver responsive braking performance.

A slim fuel tank, narrow mid-section and refined contact points provide freedom of movement, while the balanced handlebar-seat-footpeg relationship is designed to reduce fatigue and maintain control over extended riding periods.

ODI half-waffle lock-on grips, a Pyramid seat cover and ProTaper ACF Carbon Core handlebars with adjustable mounts provide secure contact and allow riders to refine their riding position. A manageable 955 mm seat height supports manoeuvrability in technical sections, while the 8.3 L fuel tank provides capacity for longer rides. Full LED lighting extends usability into low-light conditions.

RACE-PROVEN DEVELOPMENT
The TF 250-E and TF 450-E arrive for 2027 following a successful season of international enduro competition. During the 2026 FIM EnduroGP World Championship, Triumph riders recorded 62 podium finishes and 15 victories across factory and supported teams. Morgan Lesiardo finished as Enduro1 vice-champion, while Leo Joyon secured second overall in both the Junior World Championship and Junior1 Enduro World Cup aboard the TF 250-E.

At the 2026 6DAYS FIM Enduro of Nations, Triumph riders featured in all three World Trophy podium teams, with Italy taking victory ahead of France and Sweden.

The TF 450-E has also demonstrated its competitiveness in EnduroCross and SuperEnduro. Jonny Walker secured Triumph's first AMA EnduroCross Championship in 2025, winning the title in the TF 450-E's debut campaign, before taking second overall in the 2026 FIM SuperEnduro World Championship following a season of race wins and multiple podium finishes.

SPECIALIST SUPPORT
Supporting riders on and off the track is Triumph's worldwide network of specialist Motocross and Enduro Centres. Providing expert servicing, technical support, parts supply and race-day assistance, the network ensures riders have access to factory-level expertise whether training locally or competing internationally.

A dedicated 24/7 online parts and accessories platform gives riders access to genuine Triumph components, with express delivery and click-and-collect options available to minimise downtime between training and competition.

ABOUT TRIUMPH

  • First established in 1902, Triumph Motorcycles celebrated 120 years of motorcycle manufacture in 2022. For more than three decades, Triumph Motorcycles has been based in Hinckley, Leicestershire, and has produced iconic bikes that perfectly blend authentic design, character, charisma, and performance.

 

A GLOBAL BRITISH SUCCESS STORY

  • Record global sales of 141,683 motorcycles were delivered in Triumph’s latest Financial Year (FY25: July 2024-June 2025), through a network of 950 dealers in 68 countries, confirming Triumph Motorcycles’ position as the largest British motorcycle manufacturer.
  • Triumph currently employs around 3,000 personnel worldwide and has subsidiary operations in the UK, North America, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Japan, Sweden (Scandinavia), Benelux, Brazil, China, and Thailand as well as a network of independent distributors. Triumph has manufacturing facilities in Hinckley, Leicestershire, and Thailand plus CKD facilities in Brazil and India.

 

A WORLD-CLASS RANGE

  • With a laser-sharp focus on what riders across the world are looking for, a passion to deliver the perfect ride for every customer, and attention to detail that delivers the highest quality motorcycles, Triumph offers a growing range of category-leading motorcycles spanning Modern Classics, Roadsters and Adventure bikes. From the accessible Speed 400cc TR series to the Rocket 3 with its powerful 2500cc engine, every model exemplifies Triumph’s iconic style, quality and performance.
  • Delivering a fun, agile and confidence-inspiring ride for riders of all ages and experience levels, the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400 X launched in 2023 with a brand-new single engine platform (TR Series), representing incredible value for money and bringing Triumph to a whole new generation of riders. The range has now expanded to include the Scrambler 400 XC, Thruxton 400 and Tracker 400.
  • The Modern Classics feature Triumph’s legendary Bonneville twin engine. Famously named to celebrate Triumph’s 1956 land speed record on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, USA, the Bonneville was the original British superbike and a race-winner straight out of the crate, chosen by famous motorcyclists of the past for its handling, style, and character. Now, the Bonneville family has evolved, with rider-focused technology and cool custom style. The range includes the Bonneville Bobber, Bonneville Speedmaster, Speed Twin 900, Speed Twin 1200, Scrambler 900, Scrambler 1200 and the iconic Bonneville T120 and T100.
  • The Roadsters start with the agile and popular Trident 660 and Trident 800, with the sporty Daytona 660 and Street Triple 765 RS and RX, and finally the Speed Triple 1200 RS and RX. For adventure riders, Triumph has a complete line-up of epic Tigers, starting with the Tiger Sport 660 and Tiger Sport 800, moving up to the Tiger 900 range, and finally to the Tiger 1200 range.
  • Triumph’s debut in the competitive off-road arena has delivered outstanding results, with race wins and podium finishes for the TF 250-X, TF 450-X, TF 250-E, and TF 450-E, which have all delivered at the highest level on some of the off-road world’s most competitive stages. 2025 also saw the addition of a TF 450-X and two new cross-country models; TF 250-C, and TF 450-C.
  • In October 2025, Triumph Motorcycles launched its first electric youth motorcycles; the new Triumph TXP range, powered by OSET. This collaboration with the OSET team, who joined the Triumph family in 2022, has resulted in four new models with scalable electric performance, premium design, and built-in safety features for children as young as three. Each bike is engineered from the ground up with age-specific frames, geometry, controls, and components, optimised for the rider's size and experience.

 

TRIUMPH RACING

  • Triumph has a glorious racing history, competing in and winning races in almost every class and field of motorcycle sporting achievement, from winning the second ever Isle of Man TT in 1908, to the thrilling last-lap victory at the legendary Daytona 200 by Brandon Paasch on the Street Triple 765 in 2022.
  • Triumph’s racing legend continues as the exclusive engine supplier to the FIM Moto2™ World Championship since the start of the 2019 season. Triumph Motorcycles provides all the teams with race-tuned 765cc triples, each of which is based on the class-leading Street Triple RS powerplant. Redefining the class, Triumph broke record after record in the inaugural year, including the first ever +300km/h Moto2™ top speed. Reflecting these great successes, the wonderful feedback, and partnerships that Triumph have had with the riders and their teams, and the incredible response from Triumph fans across the world, Triumph and Dorna, decided to extend the relationship in 2021 and again in 2023, signing a new contract for another five years of racing: 2025 – 2029.
  • Triumph is working with PTR Triumph Factory Racing to participate in the 2026 World Supersport Championship. Tom Booth-Amos and Oli Bayliss are racing on the Street Triple 765. Macadam Triumph Factory Racing continues with British Supersport riders Brad Perie and Max Wadsworth. Triumph will also enter the all-new Sportbike World Championship with the Daytona 660. On the roads Triumph will compete at the Daytona 200 and the NW200 with the PTR Triumph Racing team, with KTS Macadam Triumph Factory Racing also lining up for a number of stops on the road racing calendar including the IOM TT.
  • In 2023, Triumph announced its intention to compete in the 2024 MXGP/MX2 and SuperMotocross World Championships, and after two successful seasons, is racing with a four-rider team for 2026. Jordon Smith, Austin Forkner, Jalek, and Mikkel Haarup are racing for the British manufacturer, competing for the first time in AMA 450 Supercross with the TF 450-X, as well as the AMA 250SX East Championship with the TF 250-X. Triumph will also compete in the AMA Pro Motocross series in both categories. Triumph earned its first Main Event win in Supercross in February 2025, and has enjoyed podium finishes in the Pro Motocross series in ’24 and ‘25. In the FIM MX2 World Championship Camden McLellan is competing for a third season aboard Triumph machinery, alongside Guillem Farres with positive momentum in the new season thanks to podium results from ’24 and ’25, as well as a first moto win in April 2025.
  • In September 2024 Paul Edmondson was officially appointed Team Manager of Triumph Factory Racing’s enduro programme. In 2025, Jonny Walker took 2nd place overall in the SuperEnduro World Championship on his TF 250 and finished the 2025 Red Bull Erzbergrodeo on a near-standard TF 250-E four-stroke. Walker went on to win the AMA EnduroCross championship with the TF 450-E. Triumph earned podium finishes in the Enduro1 category of the EnduroGP World Championship with riders Mikael Persson and Morgan Lesiardo. Lesiardo took Triumph’s first Enduro1 overall victory and EnduroGP podium. Triumph competed at its first International Six Days Enduro in August with the TF 250-E contributing to Italy’s World Team Trophy victory with Lesiardo and Team Sweden’s first podium in decades with Persson, as well as impressive top five individual finishes overall. Triumph’s factory effort lines up with Mikael Persson and Jeremy Sydow for 2026, with Jamie McCanney moving to a role as Rider Coach.
