Triumph Tiger 800 (XCA and XRT) | First Rides | Motorcyclenews.com

[@michaelhayes5601]

I rode that off road in Moab and was super impressed. Amazing bike to ride there and even better when you plop yourself off the trail and back onto the road again.

[@thomaskerr9891]

Love the TFT and backlit controls- amazing.

[@m4tblz]

personally I want to see it compared with GS850. Tiger looks better tho, in my opinion at least.

[@GaryJohnWalker1]

And in that group test along with the 850GS, take both an xr and an xc since the on/off road bias is so different.

[@AkaAndyKnuckles]

Will be interesting to see it compared to the Africa Twin. Throw in the V-Strom as well.

[@triedproven9908]

Looks better than the Africa Twin thats for sure...

[@johnfragos7660]

To a blind man perhaps... It cannot possibly antagonise the AT... And it is way over priced...

[@triedproven9908]

I'm not taking anything away from the AT it will probably out perform the Tiger 800 in every aspect... But this bike looks damn good.

[@thepassionofthegoose5472]

Definitely looks more refined.

[@markjacobs6294]

Does the AT have cruise control, heated grips, heated seats and those beautiful gauges? AT...too heavy and under powered for a 1000.

[@banzai385]

The Triumph triple is in a different league to the Honda that chugs like an indoor kart.

[@masseyfergusonab]

Please add 850 GS on that comparision

[@FastRu-kl7iy]

Where did they get so old and funny front calipers from?

[@jancox90]

that moped oldman....

[@Fertube0218]

Triumph give us a 660 Tiger it will sell like beer.

[@timphoto83ec]

The frame is NOT the same. The new one hase bracing where the old one would crack.

[@infantlightgaming4475]

How good is the off road and on road together I ride alot on both plus I ride on the freeway for the xca

[@theozchannel7557]

kindly may a review of benelli leoncenio 500 as well

[@dazadorph45]

The head lights make it look like that's its is squinting it's eyes like King pow character.

[@bangun172]

after the reviews i purchased the african twin ,,,wow what a bike honda all the way

[@firetail006]

Looks intimidating just like a tiger 🐅...

[@Clint_the_Audio-Photo_Guy]

"You go- hea-ed seat, hea-ed grip on the rood model". I'm trying to figure out where this accent is from. There's a tinge of John McGuinnes in there, but it sounds like it's hard work to talk.

Electronics have taken over everything. Gone r the days when u will have to twist the throttle thinking about dear life.

[@kjp6663]

Shonith Someshwar As far as I know electronics can be switched off in almost every bike... So today's bikes have a much wider audience from novice to expert... Earlier you had to be an experienced rider to touch superbikes... So you can switch off everything but I highly doubt even all the electronics can save a squid...

[@kjp6663]

will M I'm pretty sure most bikes have a base model without the electronics package as well just with ABS and TC. Except for zx10r maybe. And maybe panigale too.

[@shonith91]

will M yes that's true here in India now a days most youngsters look for bikes with upside down forks, slipper clutch. USD forks don't work well in most of the roads here, it fails more often. Soon this keyless and quick shifter will follow. More electronic junk to go wrong..

[@mightyboomerang2932]

Honda latta.

[@deniscalvert6826]

More over priced bikes

[@thepassionofthegoose5472]

Only if you think of a bike as a toy and not as a decades long travel companion.

[@michaelhayes5601]

Exactly ^ People who call bikes overpriced also usually don't understand why people add Guacamole to their burritos at Chipotle.

[@deniscalvert6826]

Let's face it a bike is a toy when you load it up with kit it becomes unstable doesn't handle then add a pillion you start highering the center of gravity which is no good for any bike. Then you've got heated grips ,heated seats, traction control, tyre pressure monitoring etc. all required, I don't think so and you are paying for this. Better to trailer the bike by car then enjoy the area
