Triumph Motorcycles has officially launched the new TF 250-X, with an exemplary power-to-weight ratio in its class and a comprehensive specification package in the highly competitive 250cc motocross segment.
Developed entirely by Triumph in close collaboration with high-level champions such as Ricky Carmichael and Ivan Cervantes, the design of the new four-stroke competition model is completely new. Both the high-performance racing engine and the unique aluminum frame are compact and lightweight, as well as incorporating some of the best components on the market as standard.
With an aggressive and purposeful style, the TF 250-X is narrow yet bold and will be immediately recognizable on the track for its minimalist and lightweight silhouette, as well as its black and yellow Triumph Racing graphics scheme.
A selection of official Triumph motocross dealerships will offer sales, after-sales and parts services, as well as a new dedicated collection of equipment, always supported by a new online parts supply system that operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, optimized for mobile devices, so that customers can place their orders with express delivery directly to the track.
Steve Sargent, Product Director of Triumph Motorcycles, said: “The launch of the TF 250-X is the culmination of a significant level of commitment and investment from Triumph not only to bring a new motorcycle to the motocross world, but also to provide winning performance. To do this, we focused on offering the most complete package for all levels of use, from champion to amateur. This motorcycle is 100% Triumph. It was conceived, designed, developed and manufactured by our world-renowned chassis and engine teams, and it benefited from the experienced support of our champion riders. We started with a blank sheet of paper in a completely new design, including a new engine, a new chassis, and new electronics.”
Competition performance
Triumph has developed a completely new, compact and lightweight four-stroke single-cylinder racing engine. Featuring a forged aluminum piston and titanium valves, this engine also has DLC (Low Friction Carbon) treatment, lightweight magnesium covers, and an Exedy Diaphragm clutch.
The advanced engine management and tuning options are complemented by the MX Tune Pro application, which allows each rider to select the map they want to use, consult engine sensor information, and access real-time diagnostic functionality, all through a programmable and controlled system.
Aluminum frame
Lightweight, yet strong due to its twin-spar design, the unique aluminum central column frame was designed to achieve the ideal balance of performance, weight, and flexibility. The total weight of the bike will set the new TF 250-X as one of the new benchmarks, offering an ideal weight/power ratio in its class, an aspect that will be reinforced thanks to its level of adjustability possibilities to suit different riders and styles.
High-level components
The TF 250-X incorporates premium components that add up to unparalleled technical specifications for a production bike in this category. The KYB suspension leads the list, with 48mm AOS spring forks, forged and machined 7075-T6 aluminum triple clamps, and a rear shock absorber with a three-way piggyback reservoir.
Le système de freinage haut de gamme de Brembo est composé d’un étrier avant flottant à deux pistons de 24 mm, d’un étrier arrière flottant à piston unique de 26 mm et de disques Galfer de 260 mm à l’avant et de 220 mm à l’arrière. Les jantes en aluminium de la série D.I.D DirtStar 7000 et les moyeux en aluminium usiné sont complétés par les pneus “mid-soft” Pirelli Scorpion MX32, tandis que le guidon Pro-Taper ACF avec noyau en carbone et les poignées ODI Half-Waffle avec système de fixation complètent la configuration.
