A couple of weeks ago while my tiger sport 660 went in for a service, I was lent the tiger 900 gt , what a bike great low down and mid range power where it’s needed , great handling and at the time they did a low version ( just right for me ) but being retired couldn’t afford one + plus the new models they don’t do the low models anymore, reason no one requires them , I do with my dodgy hips , I’m 72 . All I’ve got to do now is win the lottery 🤪🤪😊👍

I love Triumph. I have owned Suzuki, Yamaha, Victory, Triumph and Ducati. My Ducati gets the most looks, but nothing has been built better than my Triumph, simply a work of art.

Enjoyed getting the Tridy660 same time as you & after a season traded it in for the Sport660 with all the bling,bells & panniers. It served me well for about 9000mile incl. a quick trip from 🇨🇭back to our roots 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿&🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 in '22. Passed it on, since our dealer passed away & have a Street Triple 765 . It's s great bike & instill think that engine ought to be in a detuned form of 47/95bhp variants in the TigerSport & Trident. Looking forward to our snow melting away to get my hands on the 400's for testing. Big hello from here to you over there 'not-on-the-continent' 👋✌️

Pre ordered the new Tiger Rally Pro in ash Grey. Should have it by May

Both 400s look like fantastic little runabout bikes. The best part of the khaki green tiger was the white frame. If any other colour option had a standout like that it would be just as popular in my opinion.

Nice Vid Rob, Would love another Triumph, good to see the channel going from strength to strength, almost 300k! Big congrats

My prediction is that they replace the thruxton with a speed twin RS. All the performance parts from the thruxton transferred onto the upright speed twin. People have been asking for it for years, so this might be the time they finally do it.

Triumph is more dedicated to the new and poorer rider with the mid range models (these and future ones) and bikes for the non bikers; like those tigers etc; then still somehow keep the Speed twin; that the 1200 is a real nice bike (not so the 900) Then, nobody actually wants a cafe racer (I have 3 old Triumphs and a Thruxton R with the fairing etc) as a daily rider or commuter so the sells seems were not so good.

Quad lock 🔒 is an Australian invention- Our story started with wanting to explore the world. Well, at least some of it. With Australia as their backyard, Quad Lock founders Chris and Rob rode bikes on empty roads, explored mountains on foot, and deserts in the car. But they didn't have total confidence taking their phones out there. So, they did something about it. A few years after the release of the first iPhone, Quad Lock was born. And a Kickstarter campaign in 2011 launched a premium iPhone mount - loved by cyclists worldwide. The range has since expanded to other pursuits, with enthusiasts all over exploring more with their phones securely in sight. Paul - from Australia

I commute on an old Tiger 800 and it does feel a bit big considering it rarely goes above 50mph and I have to filter a lot. I think the 400's would be a bit small (I'm on it for 2 hours a day), which then means the Trident or smaller Tiger? I'll definitely have a look at the Excel in February.

The 1200rr is one of the best looking bikes on the market. I just wish they would make a more street friendly version that could be used as a daily in the city. Put the Trident 660 engine in a bike with that body style and I’d be the first on line to purchase.

One of each, please! Seriously, I have the "last" generation of the Speed Triple, a '19 "S" in white and it has been the finest bike I have had the pleasure of owning to date (riding 50+ yrs, some 18 street bikes & many dirt). For a "machined from billet" fine, sporting, torquey street bike it's hard to imagine a better choice. Believe me 148 crank hp is more than you need and the delicious low down torque makes shifting largely optional. I'm VERY happy with my choice!

I love street triple R and RS. I was so close to buy one when i called my insurance company in Sweden and that was a chock. Almost double the price as my Triumph 900 GT Pro insurance. And that was the cheapest price looking around. How is this possible? For this small street triple. Then i looked at honda cbr650r and thats a more sporty bike inline 4 and that was half the price comparing with the street triple. How is this possible? Price going skyhigh in Sweden but insurance cost even for smaller bike is insane. And then i am 56 years old. This is madness.

I'll miss the Thruxton - beauty of a bike, the commemorative one. Does the downgraded Scrambler, XE to XC, with its not-top-spec components still say 'Premium'? I suppose they did some market research and felt that the XE had sold as well as it was going to, so slightly different buyer segment was needed.

So the street triples colors are remaining the same?

The Thruxton should have been finished in Triumphs racing blue of the early 70's 👍

Both the 400 cc bikes look good , I wonder if the Thruxton is really being discontinued, I wouldn't be surprised if Triumph revamp it in a year or two , Really like the Tiger 900 still think it could of gone up to 110 or 115 HP, Rally Pro not so tall great for me, The 1200 Tiger is bit tall for many riders , £ 20.000, for a bike is getting crazy, 😢, Rocket 3 stunning but costly and extremely heavy,

I know you're not into dirt bikes, any chance you'll do a video on the TF-250?

I already own the Speed Triple RS 1200 but wish I had the Rocket 3 in my garage. It was a hard decision because the Speed and Rocket but went with the Speed due to it being lighter and smoother on the corners. That said I still wish I owned a Rocket 3. Maybe next year when they make a 200hp model😅

Also, speed 400 rr is also being tested

Great triumph bikes

I got myself the trident 660 racing yellow it really stands out

Triumph appear to be positioning themselves for big sales in the Indian and Asian markets with many of these smaller capacity releases. Good luck to them, follow the money!

I hope they one day make a 900 bobber..

Ok I know this is about triumph bikes but are the ZX10RR special colors are they available for the United States possible if I order one

Tiger 1200, the air filter under the tank and not having a way to easily fit prefilters exclude it from consideration for people actually using it for off-road adventures… no one wants to remove the tank to clean/swap an air filter after a big day on dusty dirt roads.

Thanks for making a real comment, most commenters are just fan boys.

the trends as well as offerings from global bike majors over the past 2 years suggests that they are assiduously "cultivating" a demand for increasingly higher powered bikes in both developing and developed mkts. But mainly the former.

many here like the 660 will be the last year in Thailand; so the dealer tells me.. so you have the GTpro or tiger 1200 ralley/pro etc.

1. Thruxton RS. 2. 765 RS. . 3.660 Tiger Sport. 4. Tiger 1200 GT Pro

Triumph makes amazing motorcycles, and I’m a fan, but it’s time for them to do more. Currently, the updates mainly involve just changing the color - for example, the Speed Twin 900. The instrument panels look cheap and outdated; there’s no USB-C, the LCD looks awful, like it’s from 10 years ago, and competitors are faring much better in these aspects. More modernity is needed. Those single-cylinder Speed 400 bikes aren’t even considered as Triumph; they lack proper sound and performance. In short, Bajaj says it all. By the way, TFT instrument panels are good 👍

Why no longer beautiful metal silver motors? Much nicer, more beautiful, than those cheap looking ugly black things. The silver raw metal engines seemed to say, "look at me, I'm proud, I'm beautiful, I'm the heart and soul of this machine". The new black blobs seem to say, "don't look at me, I'm just an invisible boring opaque blob, look at all the plastic colorful garbage around me instead".
