    Going up to the off-road capable tiger 900 is 4k to 5k more. You need to go to the 900 Rally or Rally Pro. The GT, which is also road oriented, is about 2k to 3k more. This bike is simple yet capable. The vibration is very minimal unless you're overly sensitive. It's a bike for the minimalist guy who wants a commuter or weekend ripper. With some luggage, it's an easy weekender. The only thing that some may really want is the cruise control. Personally I barely use it on my other touring bike but that's just me. You can always get a throttle paddle or throttle lock if need be. You can always add the heated grips and quick shifter. The Rally Pro is over 17k, and unless you're planning on some serious off-roading, it's mostly a waste being you'll never use all the mods nor need the extra suspension. I've had numerous bikes with adjustable front suspension and never adjusted any of them. The detuned less horse power isn't noticeable in real world applications. This bike will get you into the trouble numbers in no time at all. The 900 will have a pinch more at the very top but actually makes less torque at the bottom. A couple MPH in the triple digits won't make much difference way up top.

    I rode the 850 and a couple of different 900's. In the end, I chose to get a used 2017 Tiger 1200 in showroom condition with full luggage for half the price of a new 900 GT pro. It just feels like a much more substantial bike and way better for touring. Great bikes though overall.

    I’ve got one after watching the video you published a couple of years ago. The one where you did an interstate two-bike ride. After owning it for a while, I’ll say it is an excellent machine with zero troubles. But I agree with your points; 900 will be the bike. 850 is between 660 and 900, and it is neither of those in terms of possible applications. It is bigger than 660 but not suitable for two-up riding. It is a “touring” machine but no touring electronics. Anyway, it probably would be a pass for me as well, even though I enjoyed every single mile with this bike. I documented it on my channel if you guys want to watch my experience with it.

      It's exactly the same bike as the 900 but slightly detuned and less electronics. That's about it. It's not in-between the 660 and 900 in size. Only missing the cruise control for touring. If you've been riding as long as me then you'd understand cruise control wasn't even a thing on motorcycles back in the day. You just got on the bike and went.

      @SergeyVikultsev Yes, the way you stated it reads differently than how you just explained it. I've owned my 850 sport for 6 months now and really enjoy it. I don't feel it's lacking anything for the price point. Heated grips would be nice, and I may add them. I'm not really big on cruise control, but it would be a plus. I barely off road other than some hard packed dirt or gravel.

    Great bike and it can do the majority of off roading most people would normally use it for, like lite gravel roads, fire roads and things like that, but the 900 is definitely better if you are more hardcore off roading. Cruise control would be nice and maybe a throttle lock will work ok, but as far as the rest of the tech nonsense, I think it's near perfect b/c as long as you can turn off the traction control, which I'm pretty sure you can on the 850 sport, then that's all I'm interested in. I couldn't care less about off road pro and multiple rider settings and the small display is welcome in my opinion. Spoked wheels and some crash protection and it would be perfect. I will take either the 850 or 900 and be happy, due to some like new 900's available right now, that will most likely be the route I'm taking, but for the money and for my needs, the 850 sport is hard to beat.

  • @markfisher2683

  • @jeremycarr3920
    @jeremycarr3920 3 месяца назад

    Watched till the end, now I love the look of this bike, I gave up bikes 20yrs ago, last bike was a 1996 ZX6R, no abs, no traction control, no rider modes, no cruise control. Now I guess abs works well on cars has done for years, so that's got to be good, do you really needs loads of levels of traction control? I guess rain, just gives u a bit less power in the wet and nulls the throttle. So do u really need loads and loads of electronics, cruise control, always use it in a car, on 2 wheels not sure, how does this compare to Suzuki vstrom 800 and transalp, 2 other bikes on my radar, seems very similar but very different?

  • @eminiscalperpro9729
    @eminiscalperpro9729 3 месяца назад

    850/900 they're the same bike. Yes u have an adjustable suspension on the gt and the rally versions have showa suspension n more off road rider modes. Certainly the 850 has fewer options out of the box, but she has the same bones. Its basically what was the 900 base model. Some say the engine tune is better on the road vs the 900. Its the same engine with different mapping. Many have pounded the hell out of these tigers with mag wheels off road n never had an issue, plus most people aren't using 450-500 lb bikes for hardcore off roading. If u want, put a proper bash plate n 50/50 tires n do as much off roading as u want. Cruise control is the only complaint for long range touring, but people ride bikes across the country without cruise, so for what it is, its not a big deal n there are options if u decide u have to have it. But for most people, it doesn't matter if u are on tbe 850 or 900, its going to be the same experience n fun.

      I bought one of these last September.
      I'm 56 years old, 5' 6" tall with a 30 inch inseam and I can get both feet almost flat.
      I ride it in Thailand where the roads can be very unpredictable and bumpy, and I find it's an awesome machine for long-distance touring, some light off-roading and even ok in town.
      It's really easy to ride and handles very well and is very stable at all speeds and the lack of adjustability in the front suspension is no issue even off-road.
      It's super comfortable both in seat height & position and leg position.
      The power delivery is super smooth and there's plenty of it with a very light clutch and fantastic Brembo brakes.
      Yes, there's some vibration through the handle bars and there's no cruise control, but it's much cheaper than the 900 version.
      The rain mode is awesome in the wet and off-road.
      One of the best bikes I've ever owned.
      Hope that helps.

  • @RookieRider93
    @RookieRider93 9 месяцев назад +8

    "....but none of the off-road ability" - I am sorry, but this is simply not true. Firstly, most ADV bikes are essentially Starbucks shuttles, because very few owners take them off road. The few who do venture off-road, this bike has more than sufficient off-road capabilities for all but the very advanced riders. The only real omissions here are spoked wheels and ABS that can't be turned off. I regularly ride trails, multiple hours at a stretch and never faced any issues. It's a great bike!

    • @KamikazeJoeNYC
      @KamikazeJoeNYC 9 месяцев назад +3

      Yeah fantastic bike! Unplug the wheel speed sensor on the back wheel to disable ABS and zip tie it until the ride is over (or pull the fuse). Low seat height and relatively light weight (for an adv) makes the bike super manageable.

    I own one. First gear is way too high, and when I have a passenger it struggles to take off from the line. I'm swapping the front sprocket from a 16 to a 15, but that raises the rpm on the highway. Because of the offset firing, it runs like a four missing on one cylinder. I would suggest anyone looking at one to look at other choices before buying. Its not a bad bike, its just not as good as it could be.

Además, viendo a gente que las prueba en RUclips, todo parece indicar que la Tiger ilumina bastante mejor de noche, algo que para mí es importante. Pero hay un par de cosas que me echan para atrás: Son muchos los que la han probado y se quejan de lo mucho que vibra entre 110 y 120 km/h. El segundo defecto es que suelta mucho calor hacia las rodillas y es muy molesto circulando por ciudad en pleno verano. ¿Cómo ves tú estos dos aspectos? ¿Has notado algo? Luego también está el tema de los concesionarios (escasos los de Triumph) y su caras revisiones. Y por último, supongo que se revenderá mejor una Honda que una Triumph.

It's a ADV styled touring bike and I'd feel cruise control is the one thing all touring bikes should have as standard. That said Triumph do knock it outta the park with quality controls and fitment. But yeah no cruise control on a touring bike seems like a huge misstep on Triumph's behalf.

      For example, my first bike, I like this type of a bike - but it’s my first bike, is it really my type of a byke? Do I want to spend $15k for first bike that might not even be my fit later on, or just go safe and get $9/10k bike - that has so much tech, cruise control, abs and cornering abs, heated grips and seat.. I mean come on, the quality can’t be that MUCH different to justify that big of a price difference.
      Also sat on HD Pan Am and some parts felt sooo cheap it was unbelievable to me, and it’s more than 2x cost of CF moto.

    Why does this man continue to sit too far back in the seat? Complains of vibration and shake through the bars when he's sitting arms stretched with his backside past the midpoint of the bike. Get up to the tank and you'll get less front end movement, it'll feel more compliant and handle better. It's not a cruiser bud.
