Great review, thanks, I reached out awhile back for your input on Gt or Rally 900 as I was really on the fence. Well I went for the Ralley and really loving it. Miss the old Harley a bit... a little less every time I throw a leg over the tiger. She super nimble, quick and comfortable on the road. Getting some practice in on local dirt roads when I can. Enjoy your videos and real unbiased honest opinions.

Mentioning me by name in the first minute will get you everywhere, Steve. I liked this bike. I sorta see it as a competitor for a T7 for someone who wants more of a street bike and less of an off-roader, but still doesn’t want to miss out and likes the nicer. I hope ya had fun 😉

Hey Steve always trust your reviews 100% Just recently brought the new 900 Rally (due to no Rally pros in the country) I actually watched your rally 900 pro review in the shop on the sales guys laptop before I made the purchase. Yet to take it off road (apart from a blast on a few gravel roads near my home) but loving the bike so far comfortable even two up and a lot lighter and manoeuvrable than my old 1200 Tiger. Keep up the good work.

Hey Steve, Thanks for a great review of the Tiger 850. You help to give a better understanding on who this bike is for. When the 850 came out, I couldn't see why someone would choose this over a 900GT PRO. Your riding videos at the end were awesome especially those two little kids on mini bikes. That's how I started a long time ago... Great Memories.

Francis here is my thought on the why 850 vs 900 rally. #1 weight, #2 my age, #3 price. I just got one and it is fantastic. No single tracks, but I did ride this past weekend on dirt and mud. Even a bunch of washout. It handled great for me. Yes, I would like the other features, but to me, not worth it for my budget...bought a throttle lock for interstate, not cruise, but hey, not as much cash out of pocket either...

Thanks for your nice review. Looking for my first bike and I really like this Tiger 850...

Bought the 2022 850 Sport about a month ago and absolutely love it. . I've done almost all road miles so far...can't really comment too much on off-road capabilities... but plenty of power and very stable in turns and bends....Cruise control would be nice, but very fun, capable bike!

I know what you mean about " teary eyed " You really capture what its like to be a Tiger lover, something about these bikes. I have beat the piss out of my Tiger 800, single track, rock crawling, even enduro racing like you, not to mention several long distance trips. Never once has my Tiger failed me after 20K miles. Just like you I am so attached to my 800 because of what memories this bike has given me. Its like a moving story book. I will have a hard time parting with that bike. Also I know the KTM 790 and T7 are better off roaders but I am one gust of wind away from buying a 900 rally because I love the brand. Great video and good luck Tiger brother

Look to the Indian TFT, or the BMW GS for examples of how to display a tacho properly.

Great video! Just what I wanted to see. Do you think it's worth going for the Rally for 80% tarmac use? (Only light off-road use at weekends). I like the soft, comfortable suspension and the ergonomics of an off-road bike, but other than that, the 850 seems to do everything I ask of it. I have a DR650 for serious off-roading and that's why three years ago I bought the F700GS instead of the 800GS. I am very disappointed with the 700GS, I don't like the suspension (it feels like a toy), the wind protection and the power delivery. I'm looking forward to change it but I don't want to make the same mistake with the Triumph, that's why I hesitate between this 850 (the gt doesn't offer anything I need) and the rally (not the pro). Thanks in advance.

Gday Steve, First vid of yours I’ve seen. Was wondering the same thing about this bike, then you said how much it is like 2011 Tiger 800.... I had a 2012ABS model for 8 years and only got rid of her 5 months ago (for a KTM Super Duke).... still wondering why I did it. Granted the SDR is leaps and bounds ahead of the Tiger in every respect, except I probably had more fun on it than I do this big beastie. Still contemplating riding this, the 900 Rally/pro and 790/890 Adventure R because I miss how usable they are - plus I wanna go off road again.

Get a rally pro then. The 790 and 890 have little character compared to the rally. Also watch my review on it

Good Work Brother .

Hey SK, not sure if you'll see this due to it being a month after the vid went live but wanted to thank you for the review and ask whether or not you think this would be a good choice for someone living in the Rocky Mountains? I'm debating between this or the T7. I'm definitely an 80/20 road biased guy but I did grow up on dirt bikes and considering the off-road terrain around here is the way it is, I'm just questioning if the smaller front and cast rims are going to hold up. Of course 3rd option might be to just hold off and wait till I can afford the Rally or Rally Pro. Cheers!

Hey man. I always see these. Get a t7 if you want to go offroad a bunch and save some money. If you're gonna be pushing the limits later on off road get a RP due to the fact you can't upgrade the 850 the way you want to. If you're ripping street and just cruising gravel. Get the 850! For the motor

Thats a good review..were the rims durable offroad or did they have slight bends by the end

They're fine with 35 psi

It's a great bike no doubt in that, if you plan to stick to the paved roads and highways with soft gravel here and there. If want to go some unknown landmark of where I am not aware of the terrain and landscape and more especially on a rainy and muddy day, I would go with BMW F 850 GS standard model... Much better and with the 21 inch front spoked wheels will inspire to go rumble over those rough patches much better.

Yeah absolutely, you should make a video of that.

SK great review. Any comparison thoughts between 850 & Scrambler 1200XC ? From a road riding perspective?

Been rooting for this bike for a while. Quick question tho, can you add cruise control to it as an accessory from Triumph?
