Tiger 1200 Rally spotted: What’s new?
The Tiger 1200 range should get a host of new active features
The Tiger 1200 was launched in India back in 2022. It featured all-new styling and a major overhaul to its mechanicals. Subsequently it was updated in 2024. Now a test mule of - what is likely an updated - Tiger 1200 Rally has been spotted off-roading.

For starters, the Tiger 1200 dons similar styling as the earlier spotted Tiger 900. It will get an updated front fascia with a mono-projector headlight and a beak that flows more seamlessly in the fuel tank. A new change that should bring a host of added functions is the presence of a radar sensor right above the headlight.
While the current model features a rear-radar system for blind-spot assistance and lane change warning, the updated model is expected to have forward-facing radar that should introduce adaptive cruise control, similar to the Ducati Multistrada V4. Another change is at the rear, where the current model gets a similar tail light as the Tiger 900, the updated model now moves to a split tail light setup with the brake lights integrated in the indicators. Other few small changes are a redesigned exhaust end-can and new mirrors.

The radiator shrouds and the tank seems to be carried over. Even the braking setup looks largely similar to the outgoing model.
All-in-all this Tiger 1200 seems to be more like a nip and tuck job, to keep it fresh, rather than a full-blown generational update. We expect this update to centre around the radar-guided functions that should bring a host of active and passive safety features. This updated model is expected to be unveiled later this year.
