I really doubt triumph will design and build a new engine just for these models. Triumph are still quite a small outfit compared to the Japanese giants.
I predict that they will use the 675 Triple engine for the smaller one. No doubt it will be downtuned with a less aggressive cam and timing.
I don't think it's going to be offroad orientated enough to overheat. Watercooled definately and probably have an oil cooler. If they half a brain anyway.
The bigger one will likely be an adapted Tiger 1050..
Just my guesses anyway.
