100% this format is better. Not going to lie I tend not to make it through the walk round videos as there is no riding involved. I like the riding and was still interested after the walk around. Great video A* from me. 👏👏

I have a 32" inseam and a tall adventure bike and I always use the cowboy mount to get on and off the bike. Makes it much easier. Also, if the bike is leaning over too much on the stand, turn the front wheel so that it is pointing right before getting on and it is easier to shunt the bike to the upright position.

Enjoyed the review Kate, I have no real preference on your review format, other than to say mixing it up is good. Back to the bike being a 1250 GS ADV owner I'm interested in this bike the blind spot monitoring is a good safety thing to have, only thing the bike was deficient in, in my view is upper crash bars thought they would be a given on this type of bike, but that was my only gripe everything else looked good. Thank you...

The channel is perfect 👍 I love hearing that northern UK accent being an ex Yorkshireman living in Canada 🇨🇦!!! The fact you can get on such a big bike and throw it around like that is awesome 👏👏👏 I have a Trophy SE and it’s too heavy same engine as the old 1200 Tiger. When the wife gets on it with all her gear it’s really heavy. They can be a handful when going long distance touring and being stuck in traffic. Going to be heading out for 8 days in the western USA like Idaho, Montana and Washington state to see how far I can make it there and back. Keep you the great work Kate the channel is great as far as I’m concerned 👍👍👍

Great thourigh review, plus adding the insurance quote is very important factor when deciding on a motorcycle. High insurance quotes on certain models have been a major factor when purchasing a motorcycle. In the States, The Kaw SX1000 sport tourer, the Suzuki GS1000 GT + have high insurance premiums. Most people don't factor in the insurance cost until they already purchased a motorcycle.

I love the fact you point out about being a shorty , but you can adapt easily to combating the obstacles of a high seat and hefty machine.This is very good for people to know, and will encourage more people to adopt your attitude 👍.Be interested to know if vibration is present at any particular rev band,and does it have a thirst problem, as it has a cross plane crankshaft.Sounds a great engine🎶🎼🎤.Your picture and sound quality is amazing .Love your channel, I have new 1250 GS , which I love.

Very smooth delivery of this kind of 'first-up' introduction to any new bike. Your confidence is growing and makes your videos and narration very watchable. Stay on the upward trend. Oh, and Kudos for managing the big Explorer. I am taller than you (5' 10'') and have a Tiger 900 GT Pro, but could not take on the 1200, too big and heavy (even the 2022) for me to fully enjoy, as I know there would be occasions when the concentration goes and I would get into a pickle and down she would go. Otherwise, I'd love one.

But yes you inspired me to go for it anyway. Yeah they make a lower seat part number A9701459 which I will get also.

It's going to be at least another year before I trade the 900XR in for something with a bit more grunt but I must admit that I am a Triumph fan after owning a Daytona 650, Street Triple R and most recently a Sprint st 1050 so the Bigger Tigger is a serious contender. I will also ride the GS as I know a few GS owners and they all love them to bits, I have already disqualified the KTM, I had a SDGT and the electrical gremlins were as rampant as the engine when it was working properly.

I don't think she would the new one is still top heavy compared to the GS the old one was bloody awful for top heavyness. And rather wide in the seat.

I wouldn’t need the increased fuel capacity over the GT Pro, but I do actually really like the body panel design much better. It seems more muscular and filled out more, having it extend further down the front end a bit. And oh boy, having the bike all blacked out with some silver bits thrown around does make a sharp looking bike. When it was first launched I was team blue all the way, but wow, this black Explorer is classy 👌

Triumph seems to have made a great adventure bike with this in 5 different flavours, so you as you probably know Kate this is available with different size tanks, front wheel, suspension and seat height too, so you can really spec this close to what you like. Great review Kate like your enthusiasm, do you know if you move from driving cars with 9 years plus NCB to riding bikes if the reduced insurance costs on account of NCB still applies (anybody)? thanks.

On the NCB, I was told that NCB from a car can't be transferred to a bike, or the other way around... It can't be transferred between different vehicle types.

Was going to buy one but it would be a couple of months maybe more before they would be available so I got the v4s multistrada instead. Format; I get pulled in by how much fun you are having (singing a plus). So for me it's a question of what is more fun for you, that's my pick

@@UsernameKate honestly? I did not test ride it before buying it. My suprise was being comfortable and confident on it before I got home. It now has 5773 miles and I have never enjoyed a bike more in my life. It is bike number 6 for me sense 1985 and over 300k miles (not including dirt bike) and test rides of countless other bikes. I need a lambs wool cover for my old behind and plan on many many miles on her. Thank you for asking
