"Column!" that was brilliant! Nice work man! Appreciate it. Totally Austin Powers!
Got myself a Gen1 Tiger 1200 this weekend just gone. Was a bargain. A world apart from the Honda Transalp I sold the day before. I’m loving the Tiger and think I might have got myself hooked. All the electronics on later generations are useful. Great review 👍
Just bought Tiger 1200 SE 2020 model only 10k miles. It is brilliant bike and filtering is not hard as some may think. The heated grips don't last long . Mine already are sticky and sometimes the rubber stick on the leather gloves and they don't heat much either when cold. Cannot replace the rubber only as the element is build into and need to replace the heated grips set . The quote Triumph UK give me is £370 quite a cost .
Brilliant!
Just found a 2015 XRx and can't wait to crank out the fall season here in the US.
your review helped me make decision to buy this bike just love it not as heavy as she looks I'm 5 foot 8 no problem touching ground with both feet
A bike like this would definitely be something to aspire too. Unfortunately most of us will never have the money to buy one. But, Im OK with that. I'm happy to be out. Whether on a 125 or a 50cc pedd 😀👍
Anything over £10k now is a bit hard to swallow. For a bike. £10k is my limit for a car. Used obviously.
I'm not a biker but if I had my time again I defo would be, always had a soft spot for the Triumph, keep going and hello to Reeno 😀
Never to late to join the gang;)
Never too late indeed, I have helped inspire a couple of guys in their 70s to get on two wheels. 🙂
Excellent no messing about review.👍👍👍👍
Well done review! I bought a Desert Edition a few weeks ago and love this bike!
The desert looks great! I prefer the look to the alpine.
My Dessert weighs in at 263kg including the crash bars and luggage mounts, for what its worth. Lovely bike btw, and a good review. :)
Watching the review I keep thinking of Hayling, long time since I was there. All the best and looking forward to more reviews.
Always been fascinated by the latest Tigers 1200 over the past few years, but on December 21 2021 I purchased the very latest GT Explorer in Lucerne Blue ... . Been a BMW 1200 GS-rider since 2004. Now my third one °2015. Time to swap the boxer-engine for a three-in-line ! Expected delivery somewhere in June. Rejoice !! 😉😊
Great review! Triumph really need to improve their keyless system or get rid of it. It's addressing a problem that never existed and it's not even doing a good job at it :)
A very nice bike bought last year. 6000 km already done in each type of on roads conditions.
Love how thorough you are with these reviews.
I have an old Sprint GT, the fueling gauge delay seems to be a Triumph thing. A minute later and it sorts itself out. With regards to the heated grips, if they have stayed with the same formula as the Sprint, then the grips/heat are a one piece unit, which means you have to replace the whole grip/heat unit. Again, that's if it is still the same setup as my Sprint.
Thanks for the videos, I'll pop by your channel again.
Absolutely brilliant review as always.
Loving the ride buddy. was a toss up between this and the zzr1400 think i may have to go down the triumph route
Good honest review. Thanks.
I've got a 2015 Trophy SE and am looking for something different in 18 months time. This bike seems to hit all the bars for me but if anyone got any negatives let me know. Great videos Spicy
I’ve really enjoyed these reviews Spicy, thank you. I have the 1200 XCA myself and love it when onboard and really enjoy the flexibility it offers over my Speed Triple. When can we expect the 900 review?
I own a Tiger 1200 XRX LOW, which I think you left out. The screen is contrast adaptive, and the traction control can be turned off in the rider mode. The use of the quick shifter and auto blipper ruins the muscle memory for riding other bikes. So I don't have it. First gear get you to 60 mph! Big noise is for small Williams!
Would love to see you do a review on the BMW 1250GSA
Good review hello from Sweden
The more videos I see on this bike the more I want to buy it. Just a shame it doesn't come with the higher touring screen that they showed in the press shots, it is another £250 :(
Spicy are you doing a review on the 900? I’m really interested in that bike, love your work sir.
Yes 👍
Awesome review. Are any of the lower cc versions shaft driven too or are they chain driven? I also notice that this was almost entirely a 360 recorded video.... I just did a trackday and found myself kinda numb with the GoPro 8 footage, but loved the directed 360 stuff and would be pretty happy to lose the GoPro on trackdays.... column... really big column! :D ..... Reno be a happy gurrl :D .... Not sure I am ready to lose the headcam on vlogs yet.... but it is interesting to see folk realise how versatile the 360 cameras are! :-)
Jeeebus, that was pretty scary from the chopper downwash! :O
So with a 20l tank, it should manage 225 miles to a tank, that aint shabby! :-) In some of the summer heat, little Richard has very much needed his own visor and air vents.... often frowned upon to vent in public!! :D hahahaha
13:25 I could have SWORN you were heading into a tunnel lol
Bought this bike yesterday BTW
Tree tunnel! 🙂👍
What helmet are you wearing? Sorry...late and off topic, but I am also a Triumph Tiger nerd and helmet geek lol.
Just get the 900, you kmow you want to reallly!!!!!
Nice looking bike that !! What kind of lid you got ?? Good shape to it 👍
I have the F850 GS waiting to be picked up on Tuesday, it be great for you to do the TIger 900 nice to see what you think the main difference are.
I went for the new F900XR absolutely love it!
I think the f850gs will need the f900r/xr engine to compete with the tiger 900. On paper now the tiger has the 850 beat everywhere torque power. Etc.
@@chrishart8548 Tiger 900is a nice bike but does not have as much torque 87NM at 7250, F859GS has 92 at 6250, BHP mpg is about the same. On Paper they are about the same but riding them is a whole world of difference and for me, the BMW was a better ride. plus I've read a lot of bad stuff about the Triumph quality of the bike and I did not like the screen and the rider. All bikes come down to what you like no bike is bad, its nice to have a great choice for bikes around the 850cc
Love the way tiger is 87nm and the 850gs is 63ft-lbs first google searches
Me: *has no intention of buying this bike*
Also me: *watches the full video anyway*
That's what it's all about tho it's like window shopping 🙂
@@spicy110 Honestly you could review a rubbish Chinese 50cc moped from 2008 and I'd still watch it all the way through
Same here no interest in this type of bike yet here I am 😂
I only have money for a Triumph Tiger Rally Pro 900 and that is more than enough for me haha 😎
Would love to see how this stacks up against the likes of the Kawasaki Versys 650 and 1000. Interesting to compare to the V-Strom's you've ridden already too
"Hot" was why I didn't buy it- don't fancy my love spuds getting baked. Lucky you were passing a hospital ;-)
19:14 that would of scared the shi*t out of me, literally if you were 1 second faster that would have bonked you on the head.
That's what lids are for :)
New Puppy for 2022. Prices for this one will be dramatically hit...
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hey spicy, been looking at two bikes right now this Tiger Alpine and KTM 1290 Super Adventure S. The heat you talked about is one of the concerns I have about the Triumph. I know the KTM will roast your buns, but it is fixable pretty easily. Anyone or you have any advice about the heat on the Triumph?
I bought the Alpine edition yesterday. I will try to remember to LYK what I think after 2 weeks of riding
@@christianyoung5245 Thanks, but I did buy the KTM 1290 Super Adventure S. I'm still curious to know what you think after riding for a bit.
@@chrismcc8464 the heat is a dealbreaker! You should be glad you chose the KTM!
Am thinking of exchange mine to a KTM. Do you like it? :)
@@cryptojosef4035 So far, love the KTM!! Glad I picked the 1290, ton of fun to ride. Spent the money for heated grips, upgraded seat, and the Travel Package, but got a great deal on a leftover 19.
@@chrismcc8464 okay sound good :)
Have you made any longer trip yet and felt how it is riding on then?
I so want one😍🇳🇴☕
please speedmaster review :)
JIBNEH ARABEIH!!!!!!!
This used to be a British brand.
Decent review but get rid of that rediculous helmet and you'll probably find that the screen is fine
