Great comparison re: weight and engine size. I've been fortunate to own1 x 955, 3 x 800, 1 x 900 and 2 x 1200 tigers in various forms and tbh (and 1 x AT adventure sport, big mistake, don't ask - rusting frame) the 1200 were great bikes, but I much prefer the 800/900's and like you, my current bike a 900 rally pro is plenty good enough for all round use. My playground is the English Lake District and covers everything from Hardknott and Wrynose passes to major A roads and my Tiger takes them all in its stride. Stay safe, ride safe.

I ride my 900 Rally Pro on green lanes at least once per week. The 900 Rally Pro is also fabulous for long distance touring and a 1-hour commute to the office. I tested the 1200 Rally Pro in a quarry with gravel, rocks, wide open spaces, and steep climbs; the 1200 was incredibly stable but gave me no additional usable performce offroad. Plus, at 170cm height, I couldn't touch my left toe to the ground with my right foot on the peg & brake. I suppose I could learn to slide my bum completely off the seat and hold myself on with my hamstring to touch the ground with the opposite leg, but I can't imgine myself routinely recovering on a slippery green late without being able to reach the ground with either leg. My test rides of 1200 Rally Pro and other brands like the 1250 GS convince me that the 900 Rally Pro is the perfect bike for me.

Be interested to see how you like it off-road? I have the same bike. Great bike BUT had to replace the following items after spending ~1500kms in the dirt and needed upgrades before the next off-road trip. Both mirrors, levers, handguards, pegs, handlebar spacers. Larger touring windscreen to follow in the Spring. Audio/phone/bluetooth operating system is useless.

Thanks a million! I just got a '22 Tiger 900 Rally Pro so this video was spot on for me, interesting to compare my impressions with yours. I gotta say the DIN port situation is a bit iffy (they added USB ports in the 2024 model). The power isn't cut when the ignition is off so you either need an adapter with an off button, or to remove it every time you leave the bike for the night (which I don't like). Otherwise you risk draining the battery. And I agree with you on that phone compartment under the seat being completely and utterly nonsense. Most uncomfortable position to hold a phone, ever! Another big big problem on this model is the tyre pressure sensors. They can't be customized or disabled from the dashboard, so if you deflate the tyres for offroading you constantly get the sensor alert. Ah, Triumph.

Triumph-"What do you need to go off-road?" Me-"Get rid of that stupid 23* rake on the front forks!" While it makes for a great street bike, 23* rakes make off-roading a lot more work. That's hard on a 60 year old man. I have an 800xc, am looking to purchase a new Adv bike, and Triumph is low on my list because of this. I've heard numerous Tiger owners here in the States complain about this......numerous! Hope Triumph reads this, because they're losing lots of future customers because of it. Other than that....Love you videos. Looking forward to this series. You go girl!

If you read the tiger rp.manual page 147 and 153, you will finde out thst with the off roud setting the bike changing geometry and changing rake. It's getting close as is can to dirt bike setting. That's where is this bike amazing. But nobody talking about that and Triumph did very poor marketing. My dealer didn't know about that either. I find out on my trip to England where I visited Triumph headquarter.

Ok I got a question. I am a bit on the heavier side and 158kg. 6 feet tall. Obviously a Honda cb500x would be too small and tiger 900 might need springs to be stronger. So, say the Africa twin, tiger 1200 rally pro, 1250 gs adventure, how much spring compression is too much for the bike to tell me I need stronger springs? 25mm? 50mm drop? Rider only, no luggage.

So apparently it’s another oem from triumph. I have not actually tried it but been told it’s the same as the 1200 comes with I believe. I think they should just give it as standard haha

Looking at your accessories around 8:50 in the video. GOOD: you have the new style tank guard. NOT GOOD: if you hit a rock hard against the default sump guard you will dent the guard and crack the sump case, terminating your tour. The extremely sturdy Touratech sump guard designed for the Tiger 900 fits perfectly even with the attached Triumph engine guard and tank guard bars. NOT GOOD: the default mirrors will impare the range of our arm movement while offroading. The Tiger 800 style mirrors on the 900 give more arm room, and better yet foldable mirrors offroad will be much better. Possible recommendation: if you jump your bike, the default 900 windscreen will hit you in the throat when you land. (Quite dangerous actually.) Either don't jump the bike when riding offroad or replace the default windscreen with a short screen by Powerbronze and mount a foldable windscreen extension on top of the Powerbronze.

To do any serious off roading on that bike you need to change the crappy hand guards and equally crappy engine and tank bars/protectors for better quality aftermarket ones. Soft panniers is also preferable for off road. That said nice vid and good luck.

I'd strongly suggest the Outbackmotortek ones. I took the originals off, and they were flimsy. I've gone outbackmotortek bash plate and engine guards, along with pannier frames from the same stable. I do take my 900 Tiger off road and have put DoubleTake mirrors on too. My enthusiasm regularly outstrips my talent and these things make dropping my lovely Tiger less heart breaking. I've also twatted my leg on hard boxes on the 900. I foolishly presumed on a bigger Adv bike I'd be less likely to get into difficulty, as I wouldn't be stupid enough to get into bother. I overestimated my intelligence. My 900 has pretty well the same set up as my dual sport 701.

In the '60s and '70s the U.S. was cris-crossed by intrepid boomers on every sort of bike. Choppers were particularly popular but gass stations were more numerous so being range restricted by a 3.5 gallon tank wasn't the problem it is today.
