    Finally an honest review that doesn't only pontificate the bike but shows the drawbacks. Thanks man!

    I enjoyed the video. I want to see your tiger sport 660 review soon. I wonder what the rear suspension is like because it's adjustable 번역

    Kinda interesting the larger channels don't have the guys to complain about the shock. Your not the 1st to mention it, but there's not many of you. Thanks.

    Yeah not sure what's going on there. I can't believe it hasn't been mentioned. After my review I read some and no one mentioned it. Then you check owner reviews and lots of people talk about it...

    @@onthebackwheel maybe they don't want to jeopardise the next product launch in tenerife! For me, I think the upcoming tiger sport 660 fits the bill, but I hope there aren't the same doubts

    Isn't the rear shock preload adjustable? Most seem to think the set up is really good out of the box, seeing most of the comparison videos between the mt07 and the trident they all seem to think the set up is better on the trident but they do comment on it being on the stiffer side, I tested the trident and have lots of experience with the mt07 pre face lift and I personally just wanted the throttle response of the mt07 on the trident, now the aftermarket has caught up with forks and rear shocks plus the exhaust options and the remap it's going to be interesting to see the Dyno and road test of modded tridents, but the triumph made it clear that this is aimed at entry level, I personally think that if a more experienced ride wants this styling then the closest in my opinion would be the xsr900 pre face lift.

    First thing I did was change the rear shock. Then fitted a Maxton fork cartridge to sort the front end. Now a its a great handling bike
