Miura
A Tamarit for Triumph
MIURA is Tamarit Motorcycles' interpretation of Triumph Originals, the international customization contest for Triumph. It takes a Scrambler 400 and transforms it into a competition piece conceived from weight reduction, technical precision, and a defined Spanish identity.
This is not a decorative preparation. Every decision responds to a real off-road use and a specific vision of what a contemporary Scrambler should be: lightweight, functional, and built with a level of detail characteristic of a unique creation.
Triumph Scrambler 400
Tamarit Motorcycles, representative of Spain
From Elche, Alicante, Tamarit Motorcycles has been developing custom motorcycles based on Triumph for twelve years. More than 200 projects for clients from over 40 countries have consolidated a way of working that combines design, artisanal manufacturing, and applied engineering.
For Triumph Originals, Tamarit has been selected as representative of Spain. MIURA is its first transformation based on the Triumph Scrambler 400 and brings together the work of a multidisciplinary team with a clear ambition: to present a technically solid and visually unmistakable application.
Second kit of Spain
Designed to enjoy every acceleration
The palette of MIURA comes from the second kit of Spain. Upon seeing it, the team identified a color combination with the necessary presence to bring it to a competition motorcycle.
The choice was also a statement of confidence. Tamarit was convinced that Spain would win the World Cup and decided to incorporate those colors into MIURA before it began. It is not about reproducing a jersey, but about translating its visual code to surfaces, volumes, and finishes designed for the motorcycle.
The tank trims structure the whole and the two stars integrated into the design recognize Spain's two world titles with a clean and measured execution.
The team
A project built as a team
MIURA required the participation of more than 15 people from Tamarit Motorcycles. Designers, technicians, manufacturers, and specialists have worked together in each phase, from defining the riding position to the final adjustment of the components.
The result meets the house standard: an exclusive motorcycle where each part has been chosen, adapted, or manufactured to fulfill a specific function.
A Spanish vision of the Scrambler 400
Triumph Originals
Triumph Originals invites designers from different countries to reinterpret a Triumph from their own culture and design language. The theme of this edition, Time Capsule, aimed to connect a contemporary creation with a historical reference.
Tamarit took competition Scramblers and off-road bikes from the mid-20th century as a starting point. Direct, robust machines optimized to traverse uneven terrain with the minimum possible weight. MIURA does not replicate that past: it takes its principles and applies them to a current platform.
The reference includes events like the Big Bear Run, the 530-mile Greenhorn Enduro, and the Baja 1000, competitions that demanded reliability, autonomy, and an easy-to-maintain mechanic. It also incorporates the lightweight culture of the Isle of Man races from the fifties and the imagery of Steve McQueen in The Great Escape.
The development of MIURA
Designed to function on land
The development of MIURA began with a technical priority: reduce weight without compromising off-road usability. 85% of the work focused on lightening the assembly and removing components that did not add value to its function.
The speedometer and non-essential electronics were eliminated. The result is a saving of nearly 25 kg compared to the standard bike and a final weight of 155 kg.
Design principle: only retain elements that improve control, response, and durability in off-road terrain.
The technical part of Miura
Geometry, Suspension, and Braking
- Geometry: steering angle of 25.5°, trail of 125 mm, and wheelbase of 1,450 mm to provide stability at speed and a controlled response on uneven surfaces.
- WP Suspension: specifically developed for MIURA from components of the Triumph Tiger 800. Offers 210 mm of front travel and 205 mm rear.
- Specific Adjustment: over 50 hours of development to adapt springs and hydraulics to the final weight of the bike, its geometry, and a rider of approximately 71 kg.
- Wheels and Tires: Excel Takasago spoke wheels of 21 inches in front and 18 in the back with off-road Mitas tires.
- Braking: floating Brembo disc of 305 mm and floating Nissin caliper with two pistons.

Triumph Scrambler 400 MIURA
MIURA incorporates specific aluminum components. A handcrafted rear fender completes this intervention.
Tamarit has removed the speedometer and all unnecessary electronics in this context. A clear premise: to preserve only the essentials for competition use.
Redesigned subframe to practically halve the weight of this area away from the center of gravity.
Excel Takasago spokes, 21 inches in front and 18 inches in the back along with pure off-road tires from Mitas. A combination designed to maximize performance off the asphalt: greater durability, better ability to overcome obstacles, more traction, and very stable behavior on challenging terrain.
The new exhaust line reduces weight and seeks a livelier response from the single-cylinder engine.
MIURA was born months before the World Championship, from the conviction of Tamarit that Spain could achieve the title. Its visual language takes as a starting point the colors, contrasts, and energy of the Spanish National Team's jersey. 2 stars from 2 times the best in the world.
WP rear suspension, with adapted springs and valves, 205 mm of travel. Improvement of comfort, stability, traction, and control, especially in demanding off-road riding, without sacrificing good behavior on the road.

Making of
Before becoming MIURA, this Scrambler 400 went through a design process where every detail was studied to achieve a clean, balanced, and distinctive aesthetic.
From the first lines on paper to the custom-made parts, the goal was always the same: to create a motorcycle that conveyed character from any angle, respecting the essence of the Scrambler while incorporating the unmistakable stamp of Tamarit.
Tamarit Series
Miura
There is only one Miura. And it will remain so.
But every great creation deserves to leave a mark. That’s why the Tamarit Series - Miura is born, a new interpretation inspired by the competition bike, developed on the Scrambler 400 and in limited edition.
The same essence. A new beginning.
Coming soon.
