One Year in the Saddle - Triumph Tiger
I can't believe how quickly this last year has gone by! I've had plenty of time to ride my Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally Pro and wanted to give you a run down of all the positive and negative ownership aspects I have encountered. These are the things you won't necessarily hear about in the "first ride" style videos.
I'll start by talking about the general features and comfort of this motorcycle. Then, we will go for a ride on-road and off-road to talk about the riding modes and overall ride comfort. If you are looking for a great all-around adventure motorcycle, you should highly consider the Triumph Tiger line.

No Motorcycle Stand? No Problem
Просмотров 99214 дней назад
Have you tried to clean your motorcycle chain without a motorcycle stand? It's not easy to do. You have to roll your motorcycle around your driveway until you can get every part of the chain. If you have a double sided swingarm, you can use spools and a paddock stand, but those costs add up. If you happen to have a motorcycle with a center stand, consider yourself lucky. My Triumph Tiger 1200 R...

...that is the question. My last 3 motorcycles have had a standard quickshifter, so I have not thought too much about it. However, one of the channel's viewers asked for a video talking about the quickshifter. How to use it. When to use it. Et cetera. If you have any questions or video ideas, let me know in the comments! Quickshifters came from racing motorcycles, as many innovations do. If you...
Sound Quality is King

These days everyone has access to high resolution cameras to create RUclips videos. Cell phone cameras are getting better with each generation and insta360 and GoPro cameras are now in the 5.7K resolution range. However, you will notice that sound quality is really variable in RUclips videos, especially with beginners. Bad sound can ruin an otherwise good video. In this video I will show you th...

  • @payrollloans
    @payrollloans 6 часов назад

    I dont think you are correct. As somone that was in an accident and slid down the road 62ft, nothing is "sticking" to the road. The plastic is there becuse it will hold up better to the abbrasion like knee sliders. What will causes the fracture is the impact of trying to brace or catch yourself as you fall over.

    • @Dr.MichaelsMotorcycles
      @Dr.MichaelsMotorcycles 6 часов назад

      Correct, the palm slider offers additional abrasion resistance. I was talking about the point of impact specifically as you mention. Think about it with Newton's Second Law of Physics. The palm slider allows your palm to slide during the moment of impact, which increases the time and distance you are decelerating. When you land, gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, so if you extend the time of impact by sliding, you are reducing Force. Not saying it will prevent a fracture, but it could help. This is the same reason Parkour runners roll when landing.

    I had the Air 2s or whatever the name of the shorter ones was. This ribbed section acts as the palm slider and does a surprisingly good job. I’ve had them save my a$$ once already.

  • @cheetor18
    @cheetor18 10 часов назад

    I disagree! It is not a must mod to do, Most aftermarket "fender eliminators" do not look the part at all, you just swap a part you already have with an expensive one just to justify buying it. If it was possible why not remove it entirely? You are breaking the law anyway but not having it at the proper angle, or you buy some obscure piece to hide the number plate. Fuck fender eliminator kits, just a bad industry practice.

    • @cheetor18
      @cheetor18 10 часов назад

      I also add, another problem that some fe kits have is bad lights for stopping and signaling, are absolutely not visible at all during the day. Fuck fe kits

    • @Dr.MichaelsMotorcycles
      @Dr.MichaelsMotorcycles 9 часов назад

      I buy fender eliminator kits that are street legal. For my Monster, I went with the Rizoma kit and purchased DOT approved LED lights that were actually brighter than stock and had sequential action. It all depends on which kit you buy. I always have my plate properly displayed.

  • @jakubpipek2266
    @jakubpipek2266 11 часов назад

    Or you actually learn how to fall from a motorcycle properly. You ride it as long as you can kicking it away once you are on the ground. And yes, as you just imagine it right your hands are on the handlebars the whole time and not trying to do pushups. Sure - any little extra protection helps but instead of trying to buy safety you can actually learn it and as a bonus you might not take a tumble at all.

    When I was in a crash, the gloves took all the brunt, sliders are very important, a fractured wrist is ridiculously painful and takes much longer to heal because of the tiny intricate bone structure.
