Proper test man! Love it. Real life elements here. No Portugal with perfect weather for everything! Love it!

I had the Tiger 800 as a loaner bike when they first came out. I was very impressed with that triple motor.

The seat is adjustable and yours was in the low position as you can see when you lifting it up. You can adjust it without tools.

Great video. I never would have dared to take that bike on those trails, in that condition. Even if I owned it.

Ride safe my friend🇺🇸 great detailed review👍🏻

Wow what a cool bike. I've seen some Vlogs with Ricky Carmichael and I know he has done some work with Triumph. Maybe that's why the seat is so low. Lol. Love the sound the engine makes and it really seems like a very good adventure touring bike. For now I'll continue to ride my 2022 KLR which is a bunch cheaper and I have a R1200RT. The Triumph looks like a bike though that I could probably sell both of mine buy it and be pretty happy. Take care. Good Vlog.

Very nice, video and good sound ! This is my future bike, I did enjoy every second of the video !

Hi mate - Thanks for the great info on this bike and riding it under different conditions, loads of info there, and useful for me as I am in the market for one too. You can actually raise the seat 20mm up so I reckon that would have made for a better riding experience for you. I am almost 6,2 so I reckon I'd be leaving mine on the highest setting. Would you prefer it to current KTM 890 adventure R?

Nice riview. One notice though. The bike is partialy an off road bike. If mounted with 50/50 tyres like the karoo 3's(witch it is suposed to be) one can no expect them to stick to hard road surfaces, shredding like you're on road tyres. Any compromise is a compromise. I'm using the Mitas 07+ tyres on my Rally Pro. They're ok on wet road surface, as long as you don't think you're on a trackday. Perfect on gravel and dry offroad conditions. In mud they don't do the thing....clogged up in a sec. You will need to change OEM crash bars and plate whenever taking it in real offroad conditions. Those OEM's are just for decorative perposes

There's lots of love for the e07+. I really like the Tiger all round. My review was a little messed up with timing but I'm really looking forward to trying the updated model

Tnx for sharing .. seems like a good option for a GSA Guy that try to downscale, I wish it had Electronic Suspension Control, & keyless ignition switch kind of weird that with all the Candies that this Puppy equipped, Triumph chose to passed on something that so obvious in our world today..... the other thing is to take this route again, but now, with a load lets say 65Lb, & then we can see a real ADV bike performance

I think the electronic suspension would add weight and price and they wanted to keep it right in this class, she's already expensive. I think it's a perfect step down from a big Beemer. Got all the tech, better off-road and just as quick

@@onthebackwheel All electronic gadgets adding some weight, I checked on the differences between the non electronic suspension on 2007 R1200GSA, & the Electronic suspension on the 2008 R1200GSA & negligible, & yes, she is expensive, & not fully dressed and ready for real long distances, but IMHO, when you invest so much money, you want to have all what is considered , almost as standard on high end product. Coming to the GSA, well, the only reason I considering down scale is age and some health issues, other than that it's, for me, the ultimate long distance Bike.

That is a very hard choice. Without riding them back to back I couldn't say which is better definitively, so it's probably a side grade if anything. The 900 is slightly lighter and has good tech, which could be a factor for you

Think you had the seat on low, so could have raised it a little I guess. I have the GT Pro and love it.

I realise this is an older vid now but I have my tiger now and I wonderrd if you come across ossues with clutch wheelies? If i power wheelie shell come up but if i use the clutch like for a quick front pop over log etc it dies briefyly and stops the wheelie. Even in rider mode and with TC off. Did you find that at all? Is it something inherant with fly by wire throttle. Most importantly though, do you know a way around it. TIA cheers

Unfortunately you totally missed the off-road chassis setup for this bike, like 100% of all other testers so you are not alone. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ep2hs6efdMXUeNo.html For the road you can increase the damping front and rear and it will get rid of lots of that suspension travel. You should of tried the damping at its two extremes, this bike can have quite firm or quite soft suspension setup depending on your use/preference.

Hi Terry, this is only a first ride review, so I set it at a middle ground for the test and went from there.
