Triumph Motorcycles has introduced the 2024 Triumph TF 250-X motocross bike, a 4-stroke competition model designed in collaboration with racing champions Ricky Carmichael and Iván Cervantes. Triumph emphasizes its commitment to delivering a winning performance with this new bike, aiming to cater to riders of all levels, from champions to amateurs. The company plans to kick off its motocross racing program in 2024.
The TF 250-X boasts a brand-new performance racing powertrain, featuring a compact and lightweight competition Single with DOHC, a forged aluminum piston, titanium valves, and a 5-speed gearbox. The engine incorporates advanced engine management and tunability, complemented by the optional MX Tune Pro app, allowing real-time user-selectable mapping, an engine sensor dashboard, and live diagnostics.
In terms of chassis, the bike sports an aluminum frame designed for optimal balance of performance, mass, and flexibility. Triumph aims to set a new benchmark for the best ‘power-to-weight’ ratio in the category, with a claimed curb weight of 229 lb. The bike offers tunability to suit different riders and styles.
For suspension, KYB components are employed, with a 48mm AOS coil fork at the front and a three-way piggyback coil rear shock at the rear. The bike features a Brembo braking system for effective stopping power and rides on DirtStar 7000 Series aluminum rims with Pirelli Scorpion MX32 mid-soft tires.
Triumph has collaborated with premium brands to offer a dedicated range of competition accessories to enhance the bike’s performance and capability. This includes an Akrapovič full titanium exhaust system, XTrig hole shot device, Athena LC-GPA launch control module, MX Tune Pro wi-fi module, performance gripper seat, seat cover, and a bodywork replacement kit.
Starting from spring 2024, specialist Triumph Off-Road/Dual Sport dealers will carry the TF 250-X, offering a comprehensive sales, service, parts, clothing, and race support experience. The network will be supported by a 24/7 parts and accessories supply system, allowing riders to select, check availability, and place orders for express delivery, standard delivery, or local Triumph off-road dealer pickup. The 2024 Triumph TF 250-X is priced at $9,995 in the Triumph Racing Yellow and Black graphics scheme, and orders are currently being accepted at Triumph’s new motocross dealers.
