That’s one of your best produced and smoothest videos yet. Great, detailed information as usual. Very nicely done!

Those little edits, camera angles & beats, mega video! Thanks MB.

Great review mate! It’s actually my dream bike. It offers everything I would need. I absolutely adore this machine!

Very nice comprehensive yet not boring review, well done!

Thanks for the video - another good one. I test rode the 900 GT Pro this morning and absolutely loved it! I have a Tiger 1200 which is a great bike, but unless I ride 250 miles I feel like its been a wasted effort taking it out. I tried a Tiger 800 around 18 months ago, and liked it, but it was definitely lacking grunt compared to the 1200. The 900 though, has been improved alot in that mid-range power band; I'm lucky enough to live near the Yorkshire Moors, and so the test ride was around the lanes there - rolling around in 3rd and 4th gear was great - accelerates from mid-40s in 4th up to 80 at a rate that makes you hang onto the handlebars!! So, I think that as the finance on the 1200 is up at the end of this month, I'll be chopping it in for one of the 900's - it really is a great bike!

Great video mate. I bought gt pro in May and now have 4000 miles . It’s smooth enough and versatile enough to do a lot of different types of riding. I do weekend rides with local triumph group and commute everyday Just a good all around bike. The tech is awesome. All my triumph friends love my bike. Hoping to do big ride next summer to Montana, Colorado and Utah on it

Excellent video and all you need to know, clear and concise and non sensationalising which I like. I have on order a Rally Pro in Khaki with a load of extras ready for a trip to the Picos once we are allowed some adventure trips ! 🏍💨

Great video as always. Looking forward to the comparison with the ktm and the differences between that and the 850 sport

I have the Scrambler 1200 but the Tiger 900 Rally pro is also one hell of a bike that i enjoyed thoroughly.

That Urban GS is achingly beautiful, Bob. I must check out your dedicated video on it. 👍

Yes! Best trade I made, the Rally Pro is a fantastic bike

I remember that the cruise control on my 93 XR650L was cheep. $1.65 for 2 hose clamps at a truck stop. You put one on the throttle grip. Take a dime (.10c) and put it between the left grip and the switch pod. Just get to the speed you want, take the dime and tighten the clamp. Put the dime back and your set.

Good review, I absolutely love my rally pro. However, your front seat looks like it isn’t fully in the lower setting. The front edge is sitting up to high, there is a second bar for the seat hook to engage that is lower.

Great video I love both bikes 800 and the 900 but didn’t feel any vibration on the 900 but really looking forward to the new bigger tiger going to be interesting 🤔

Bought mine last year. Love the features and I've put several thousand miles on (not my only bike). Only a couple things I'm not crazy about...the seat attachment system is clunky and leaves a fair amount of movement. Ride modes are great but I don't like the way they've laid out the TFT screen. I like the one on the 1200 much better. Other than those things I love it!

How lovely the tiger 900 i love it so much.

Great video, I’m considering this bike.

Great vid mate. This is the bike on the top end of my list. The top bike is a GS1250. Is the extra money for the GS worth it? I thought I had it pegged but trying to weigh up use per month/year. I have seen the GS drop a lot with depreciation. Any advice would be appreciated, safe rides my friend.

i've watched this video 7x lol love this bike !!!!!

T as in Triumph and Tiger is an important letter. It should be used at all times and not neglected . Nice bike by the way.

Dope 🔥🔥

wonderful video, thank you very much. do you know if there is a video how I can remove the hoods from my tiger 900, to hide wires.

I second Andy Knighton’s comment: - I’d love to see you do such a deep dive review on the TIGER 900 GT Pro, arguably my soon-to-be future Bike, after I trade my 2019 Street Twin What have you to say about that?? 🤔🧐😋👍🏼🇵🇹

Mine is full spec as well. Same Panniers, Akro Slip on, dyno jet, low rider seat which is a plus for me at 5’7” but for sure a sacrifice to the knees and the comfort over distance beyond 300 miles. Over all I paid $19k for mine. Same color scheme as yours. I run Gerbing heating gear with the Euro to US adapters for the front and rear power ports. I won’t mention the incessant up and down scrolling between features. That part sucks, along with the Navigation setup w/ Bluetooth. Do yourself a favor and just use your cell phone on a QL mount. This bike is amaze balls fun!!

Slickest video yet. Stellar work. 👌

Hope you are enjoying your 850 EBD

Bought one a few weeks ago. Love it! It feels very smooth to me and I rarely put the screen over the lowest position. That said, I have not pushed it over 120 km/h yet (run-in) and I am probably pretty used to my speedmaster... It is very approachable and easy to ride (perhaps best in class in this regard?) and very confidence inspiring off-road... Ahem, as long as you do not overstep the bounds of your skill and of the street tires it comes with of course ;) I am thinking TKC70s for my next tire after the bike (and the rider) are decently run-in...

Iv'e owned 3 800 tigers and 2 1200 and now have a 900 and don't find the "vibration" to be an issue. maybe just me but the 900 engine is a peach, low down torque with high rev growl and you still get the triple turbine whine.

Did you notice any excessive heat coming from the fans on the sides? Multiple reviewers already complained about it

❤️❤️❤️❤️

It’s almost identical. I bought the GT pro, and LOVE the adjustable suspension. I did end up buying crash bars (not standard on the GT Pro). I had a 2014 800 XC, and I think this bike is AMAZING.

Hi. Thanks for nice video. I would to know how tall are you? What kind of sofa do you used during the trip? Thanks a lot for answer.

I wish Triumph would make it look like a different version of Norden since they are very good in making a modern bike with a classic twist

I bought it a month ago........everything is good but engine heat directly heat my knee that's too hot to endure during riding in urban

What about fuel economy would you compared to t100 or t120?

I am watching a lot of reviews of the Tiger 900 GT complaining about the bend in the leg and a slightly sport position. Did you find that the taller Rally that there was less bend in your leg?

Im just a little concerned about the reported vibration issues as compared to other bikes ..

Bro is there any news about speed twin broo

Last thing, why the need to fully stop to change mode to “Off Road”, and why the governor at 128?? 😢 I won’t get into the built in knee warmers.

How tall are your shoes when riding the rally?

I may give it another shot when rainy season comes again and I might be tempted to store the phone under the seat (no water resistance on mine).

That windscreen is a MF to adjust while in route. The TCS and ABS are amazing for safety, horrible for performance. I wish they hadn’t added the vibration with the T plane crank. She has plenty of go in any gear. I don’t need the vibration to know what I’m riding. Especially since I keep having to tighten the windscreen screws due to vibration. I still love this machine!!

5.3 gallon fuel tank...hmm. Mid-range power...hmm. This is a really likeable bike in many ways, but I can't turn away from the Africa Twin Adventure Sport's 6.55 gal tank, low-end grunt and greater speed. Still, I like the Tiger 900 so much I'm gonna test-ride one before I make my final decision.

@@StrayPoet I've given myself lots of time so I haven't bought anything yet. Since that post, the new Tiger 1200s were released. I'm 80% on the Rally Explorer as my next bike. Nice 8 gal fuel tank, more power, and I've decided that for me, shaft drive is in, chain drive is out. Next year the 1300GS will show up, but I've decided against those killer BMW costs and the boxer cylinders sticking out to the side (I've heard the Triumph isn't much better in service costs, but for some reason it doesn't feel that way to me). I've heard the Tiger 1200 is closer to the Tiger 900 than it is to the old 1200 (impressive), including off-road (very impressive). I've also heard it's power delivery is right in-between the GS's low end grunt and the Multistrada's high end thrill (a good compromise). The only negatives I've heard of on the 1200 are questionable - there are a few reports of issues with the 900's quickshifter (which might not apply to the 1200), and the 1200's on-throttle has a slight snatch to it (easily remedied with remapping by a mechanic, and probably resolved in next year's model). The Rolling Stones had the best motorcycle buying advice I know: "Time is on my side."

I will really appreciate if some user of this machine can tell me what is real fuel consumption per 100 km. Cos with 20l gas tank is not so much potential to be "adventure bike"... thnaks for answer...

If the Tiger 900 GT Pro had normal street tires 120/70-17 F and 180/55-17 R (Or 160/55-17 R) and Not that T crank engine, but a regular triple engine, i would have traded in my Z1000SX for one in a heartbeat. Those two thing are keeping it from being the perfect sport-touring bike with emphasis on touring. I tested the Tiger 900 Rally Pro, and i loved it in every way other then the engine and the available tire choices.

Spot on observation. I rode a 900 GT Pro thinking about it as a replacement for my R1200GS. I understand then fitting the T-Plain crank motor in to the Rally version but whoever it was at Triumph who thought they should do the same with the GT version wants sacking. They have ruined what probably would have been my next bike. The motor vibes so much at higher revs I'll not be buying one !

The two complaints I've heard about the bike are that he vibrations above 80mph are annoying and that the radiators dump a lot of heat directly onto the legs around the knees. You didn't mention heat being an issue. Is it something you noticed at all? Can't wait to see your review of the KTM 890ADV, as it is the bike I'm shopping against the Tiger 900 GT. I can't get a test ride of either in Mexico. Cheers!

I've got the GT Pro and notice the heat on my knees but only on very hot days when riding in slow traffic. Once at highway speeds it's not a problem. There is an Italian company who make small deflectors that sit inside the outlet area to direct the hot air further outwards but I don't know how well they work.

I had one of these as a courtesy bike. I wasn't impressed. The engine is OK but boring despite being more powerful than my own bike. I thought quality wasn't good enough, with 5000 miles on the clock and a year old it had a lot of rust on the exhaust and bolt heads. I thought the cable routing was messy as well. The seat height is ridiculous, I'm 6' 2" and it took an effort to swing a leg over it. I didn't like the suspension either, very wallowy.
