Really missing you Cristian, been watching your channel grow over the years and inspired with your two-wheel adventure. You sir, will be immortal to the motorcycle community.
Going to miss this gentlemen. A very kind man and excellent motorcycle reviewer.
He died in a Moto accident right?
@@skipole09 yea I heard, an irony
Rest In Peace chief. Thank you for everything.
Rip?
@@vissindkiran this man never failed to romanticise any bike he got on his hands. And he rode his favourite GS and crashed some time last year.
@@kevinng8061 🙄
I don't know how many times I have watched this video. The good die young. RIP Christian.
Rest in Peace man. You were a great guy and I always looked forward to your reviews. Gone way too soon. Ride on.
I've seen a lot of reviews of this bike but yours is the first one to mention the rotating rear brake pedal for off/on road use! Good review, I like it!
Glad it was helpful!
I will miss your bike reviews
This is a proper "warts and all" review. Well done for telling the full story. I hope that Triumph are listening.
You are making more than the best YT videos , in fact they are now high quality motorcycle movies. F9 is widely considered to be the best , but you guys are now at least the equal of them if not better.
This has got to be the best tiger 900 review out there, truly comprehensive and ridden in every scenario this machine is designed for. Im very impressed!
You are supposed use the horizontal bar to adjust the screen. It can be moved up and down with one hand on the move.
Didn’t realise that this guy had passed, for someone who has just met this reviewer, what a loss! He came across as a very genuine person.my condolences to his freinds and family
Another wonderful video. You make some of the best motorcycle videos on RUclips. I watched all of your videos and they helped me pick what bike to buy. I bought my 2020 Tiger 🐅 Rally Pro about 3 months ago. I love this bike. Thank you for the tip on the brake adjustment. Stay safe and healthy my friend!
I just found the channel and have been loving the reviews, the best reviews by far on RUclips, only to discover that Christian has since passed away in a motorcycle accident. I am so sorry.
What a great review... nicely filmed and put together so keep up the good work lads👍🏻😁👏🏻
Absolutely brilliant, informative, objective and comprehensive review! Thank you.
Always great reviews!!!! Many thanks my friend!
As an italian fan I love you accent... It's very easy for me to follow your speech. BTW the bike is fantastic, as your review as always!
Ha, the Romans and the Romanians reunify
Thanks a lot!
that why half of Romania is in Italy ;)
Rip brother, I loved your reviews condolences to your family and friends
One of the best review start I’ve ever saw 😅👍
Was eagerly waiting for your review on this. In love with this bike even more!
More to come!
Outstanding review 👏 best I have seen on the new 900
Brilliant review guys!
I love the details you get into, no other reviewer has mentioned the other details i.e. the rear brake lever adjust-ability.
Thanks, as always, for watching us.
you are already being missed - RIP 😢
Been waiting for your review. Really enjoyed the video.❤️❤️🔥
Glad you liked it!!
A great honest review - Thank you
Your videos are always superb 👍
220Kg for offroading fun, I can see this more for touring. It will sell well in the UK but 90% of buyers will never go offroad just like the BMW GS.
Of course not,these are expensive bikes.
You wouldn't take a somewhat luxury SUV off-road
Yeh you're sort of helping me there in my buying decision ... I'm trying to weigh up between something a bit more off road focused (the T7 or KTM 790) and battling my Triumph loyalty ... I'm gonna be heading off road more and more and as much as the Tiger would be awesome, it's a bit too posh!!! They could do with making a lighter less fussy off roader.
@@TheRiderGuider get the KTM Adv 790R or the 1090R for hardcore (rally style) off-roading. I'd hate to beat a Triumph too. But for light off-roading, you can easily go with the normal versions (GT / XRx / 790 Adv) and slap on a set of Pirelli Scorpions or something and you're good to go.
It's a shame that you spend loads of money on buying a powerful triple cylinder motorcycle to find the bike lacks low end torque. Then what is the point of spokes if it doesn't have low end torque?
When these manufacturers make. Single cylinder, torquey, 65 to 80 bhp engine on an adv frame then you have a bike which can be the true offroader.
@@vivekstreme1994 Looks like the bike is new. It's a totally different story once the engine has a few thousand miles and is liberated ? Is that the right term in English ?) I tried a Street triple new and another one with 16 000 km on, it was a different bike !
Excellent review. Been waiting impatiently for your take on this bike. Last summer I bought a 2019 Tiger 800 XCa. Absolutely love this ADV bike, even after the complete overhaul into the 900. I personally think this 900 is about the best out there. Let’s face it, I’ll probably never push my 800 past the limit into 900 territory. Many Thanks for your professional insight.👍🏼 😎 🇺🇸 🌎
Good choice!
Thank you so much for this review. Been waiting for it since announcement. Finally a review which gave me all the info I needed and in a nice package. I'm glad you mentioned the heating problem. It's something what usually nobody tells us about.
And indeed it's true. I had a 1 hour test ride with Jeans on, 24 deg Celsius outside, and my knees got uncomfortably hot. Nevertheless love this bike.
@@mattuk7612 Exactly. It is a great bike. But for some people, like me, this kind of a thing might be a reason to search in competition instead. E.g. the Tiger 1200, according to what I heard, heats the ass and balls so well, that the heated seat button is basically useless :) I experienced the same issue on my friend's KTM. It was 30 °C outside and the heating was really annoying.
Absolutely beautiful machine. Hardly anything to complain at it.
What a very detailed and insightful “no bullshit “ review. Thoroughly enjoyed it👍👍
Very good and practical review with some gorgeous video. I completely agree with the grumblings over the TFT screen and during the review I wondered if you were going to mention it.
Another great review guys. I love your unbiased opinions. First review I have seen that is honest about the new engine configuration.
Thanks! 👍
@@DriveMagRiders, day add add ddderr
Thanks a lot for such a details as a heat issue and brake pedal adjustment in your review! Reviewers often dont pay attention to such small but important details.
Glad it was helpful!
I test drove it this morning and agree what you said. Trusted reviews. Great job!
Finally a real review instead of just people quoting specifications.. a personal opinion.. just what a review should be.
Yes yes yes! Good job, beautyfull video and rewiew. I think this Triumph is the best compromise for an adventure medium bike, i love it!
Wohhhhooo!!
Watching this video within 20 seconds from its Upload on RUclips.... you guys are Doing an Excellent job 👏 👍
Yes, I even asked for a video on the Tiger 900 last week and here it is! Thank you guys
The best quality reviews on youtube.... only 1,7k likes ??? come on people !!!!!! Hello from Brazil, you are great!!
Nice review man. Super
A great rework from Triumph, unfairly compared to the BMW and the KTM, and yes a Tiger 675, would be a smart addition to the range. RIP Christian, taken far to soon, there's always the risk out there, that we all share.
Fantastic review, really can tell you are a real rider. I really enjoy your videos. The heat on the legs sounds good to me right now (its pretty cold), but I can see where summer it would be annoying.
Some great action and slow-mo shots. After watching your video, I'm really looking forward to testing the 900 for myself down here in South Africa.
@Louwrens De Kock - Have also been told by those in the know that it should come in just under 200k. A bit pricey when you consider KTM 790 Adventure starts at 209k. Still looking forward to riding it.
Great review, super awesome bike!
Cant wait till they make a rally windscreen for it.
Thanks again for mentioning city riding comfort and heat from the engine.
Excellent review
Another brilliant review👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video! You fit very well on that Tiger. How tall are you?
great review, really nice to see someone who understands what they need from a bike, rather than just saying 'this is a brand new bike that is perfect', which is what most reviews do
Much appreciated!
I like ur review.its great,clear n intresting for me dis bike.tq bro.👍👍👍👍👍from malaysia
I just test rode this today. I'm debating buying it! I liked it a lot.
Great review in fantastic scenery.
Many thanks!
I would say there is a lack of compresion adjustment for the suspensions, You can see in the rock garden the slow motion part how the wheels loose contact with the ground due to uncontrolled compresion. I adjusted mine with 10 clics closed the compresion and rebound in the fork and the rebound in the rear in the closer recomended setting. Huge improvement.
Great review. You have some fantastic countryside there.
It really is!
Stunning bike, stunning countryside!
Great review! 😎👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Most people are saying that's heat from the engine is gone so Im really happy that you mentioned it's really not and even split radiators push hot air directly to your legs. Will need to try it in good weather to check it out as it's probably the most frustrating thing with Tigers (got Explorer 2gen and in the summer it's a nightmare). Other than that the bike fells super comfy and perfect for shirt and long rides (I also noticed lack of wind protection in the shoulders but good windscreen or additional plastic pieces should fix the problem).
It'll be a fair comparison between this Tger900 and Africa twin .........look forward to seeing you guys make the points on this two bikes ! Well done video ! I'm a great fan of you guys ! Cheers from Brazil !
Of course you can adjust the windshield on the go. There is a black metalic bar you just need to grab with one hand and push up or down.
Thank you for reviewing the Tiger. You pointed out one my my biggest ADV bike irritation...having to switch modes when you turn the bike off. Just remember the settings please. I really hope to have one by next year.
Great review. It helped me decide which of the two bikes to purchase. The GT Pro or the Ralley Pro. I am going to go with the Ralley Pro. Thanks!
great video as always. which klim suit is that?
Thanks. It's the Kodiak.
Great review. Tire pressure light come on my bike as well while doing a test ride 🤔 Apart from that I loved the bike
Same thing happened to me today. I guess it shows you the sensors work!
Thanks for the review. 👍 How do you like the Klim helmet? Plan do a review on that? How does it compare to Arai XD4? Thanks.
I prefer the Arai. The Klim is light, and that's the best feature, but feels a bit cheap, is noisy and not too well isolated.
The Rallypro is a very good adventure Bike , much improved over the previous model...
Great, honest, real review. Only thing though. Since when is a 900 triple a middle weight? When I was younger a 900 was a super bike. 🏍🏍
Nice video. Really curious about your AfricaTwin 2020 in-depth review. When will it happen?
Not sure yet, the bike is no longer in our fleet. But we'll come up with a comparison, too
Foarte bun review 🤙. Care e drumul de care ziceai la inceputul video-ului!
Very well explained test...which bike would you choose between this Tiger, the new KTM 890 and the Africa Twin 1100????
Thanks.
Great review. I think the ABS default function back to 'On' is an EU requirement even though it is bloody dangerous off road.
I have watched almost all videos of tiger 900, no one has has ever mentioned the rear brake peg is adjustable. Very cool to know! 👍👍👍👍👍
Glad it helped
Honest review!
You can switch from off road mode to road mode while moving just keeping preshed the riding modes button
Didn't try that. Thanks for update. However, I would prefer not to have to keep it pressed. Don't have time for that when riding.
@@DriveMagRiders It's to avoid going back on road mode mistakenly when you are switching from offroad pro to offroad while riding.
Just returned from another 2000 km trip with my rally pro. The bike consumes 5litres per 100 km average (no off-road). By the way: You can open the smartphone compartment under the 2nd seat by pushing the lid....not pulling it like you did in the video...I think you broke it then ;-)
And you can change the windscreen height when riding the bike. However it is hard to do at high speeds with all the wind pressure on the windscreen mechanism.
Thanks for sharing
Does it still shake down to low setting on bumps like the 2018? Cant believe they wont bother to fix the turbulence
epic video
Long time fan and subscriber ... Absolutely love your videos.
Can you please tell what gear you are wearing. Thank you very much.
isaikrishna klim kodiak
This time is a Klim Kodiak and Klim Krios Pro helmet.
Very well balanced review, still can't believe you prefer the Africa Twin over the Tiger 900!
Yes, it is clear that the Tenere 700 is, by far, the undisputed offroad king!
Well maybe functionally, but it is also the king of ugly ;)
@@wandering_armadillo You don't really get an offroad bike for it's beauty.
The suspension is too soft on the T7. I prefer the KTM 790 Adventure R
In offroad, the KTM 790 advR il Way way better than the T7... in my opinion
I will go with Kawasaki D tracker
I have now 13000km on my Triumph Tiger 900. Perfect bike!
God bless bro.. said a prayer for you and your family
Que envidia poder manejar una moto tan hermosa!!!
I agree you: the screen was developed by a crazy engineer. The rest seems amazing but I wait for the comparison against the BMW Adventure.
Great test!!!
Triumph needs to add the 675 adventure to the lineup. Or something lighter:)
@GaryS Absolutely but with all the same cool tech. I don't need to pick up a tank off the ground
Yep, I’d be in. The lighter the better.
Always great reviews, buy k1600 get because of your review
Hope you like it. Thanks!
Great video !
Could you do comparison between BMW F 900XR vs Tiger 900 GT Pro ?
We will try, The Tiger 900 GT Pro is not available yet for test ride in our market.
Dude, the phone holder just needs a push to open. You pulled it open like a savage 😄
Very informative review though.
if you can choose Honda 1100 Africa twin or that one, finally which one you get? Great video thanks!! ✌️
Cristian thanks for this :)
My pleasure!
i like the Ralley Pro matt khaki color scheme, imposing height stand and manual adjustments for load/rebound. However, maybe 95% I will be on tarmac and just light gravel or dirt road (not exactly off-road). I understand that GT Pro is the option to go for this my kind of riding but the GT Pro just doesn't offer that spark for me. I am coming from a GSA1200 and the spoke rims + 19" front is perfect.
Can you advice how the Ralley Pro handles when touring on highway on the 21" front tire with two up + topbox + 2 panniers?
Great video, what is the tiger 900 top speed ? I have seen your video on the f850gs, so you would know who would win in a drag race between the f850 and the tiger 900 ?
I just saw BMW updated their F850GS to 2021 models which look quite aggressive. Eagerly waiting for the comparison of these two bikes soon.
Chaitanya Shukla the bmw 2021 updates are only colors for the 40th anniversary. Nothing else changed on the bikes
10:55 after fall, i guess many parts damages and u will see later after wash it
Hi.. great review!!
I have to take a decision between tiger 900 and Africa twin 2020 MT.. haven’t tried Africa twin but 900 I have and I loved the Peppiness of the bike.. and how I could throw it around on corners or lean on highway rides.. my use is going to be 30% city traffic (and india is heavy traffic in cities).. 40-50% touring (that includes bad/broken roads) and 10-20% Offroad but not very hardcore..
which one of the two do you think would suit the purpose better.. it’s a 6 month wait for getting Africa twin here.. I don’t mind if it’s worth the wait.. please enlighten.. thanks
What boot are you using with the Klim Kodiak pants? I'm wondering if it's too tight fit with Sidi Adventure ones, thanks!
No bs review, gonna miss you bud…
#DriveMag Riders Great Video. How would you compare this bike to the KTM 790 ADV S ? Which in your opinion is the better all around bike ?
The KLIM suite you are wearing , is it good for cold weather and rainy whether?? Please reply ..
