I ride a 2008 Tiger ABS I bought used in 2011. After 10 years and 40k miles, the bike rides like a dream. I love it.
That's good to hear as looking at buying a 2008 model with 33,000 Kilometres on it.
@@scottastell9415 a friend of mines 2010 tiger 1050 as just topped 100,000 miles 😮💨 she burns a bit of oil but apart from that it runs fantastic and it’s never broke down in the 10 years he’s owned it
Have a 1050. Best bike ever. Does everything well. Will never need another. Thanks.
Thanks for watching
Have a 1050. Best bike ever. I want many more bikes. But don’t need another.
Owned my 07 tiger for 8 years its still mint just can't bring myself to sell it. Had most bikes from the age of 16 now im 46 its all the bike I'll ever need.
Me to mate , this will never go anywhere. Thanks for watching.
I am in Japan and picking up my 2010 Tiger 1050 ABS this week, really excited for it, great video! Me and my father both have Bandit 1250’s back in the states and love them too so I’m ready to see how they compare
You’ll definitely get addicted to the triple engine in the tiger , it’s awesome. Thanks for watching I appreciate it.
Yep totally agree. Been riding of 40 years and the best bike I've owned. A 2012 SE with ABS. As a SE it comes with all the extras as standard and full luggage. Toured with the wife Spain for two weeks many times and ridden Iron but challenge 1000miler in 24 hours and about to do it again this June. It does everything very well. PS I'm 5'6 and not a problem though had custom lower seat made (£340) plus part time instructor and IAM rider but don't wear a polite vest and not called Nigel.. ex biker gang member from 70 80's.
Nobody likes a polite vest lol.. thanks for watching i appreciate it. Stay safe .
another TTS 1050ccm (2015) owner here! Riding it 8yrs 60 000km and still going with no issues (except dark mind to sell him :D) But I cant, bcs it is bike for everything, the best would be bring little brother Street :) Greetings from Slovakia. Have a safe journeys to all
Thanks mate
Just bought a tiger 1050 yesterday wow just love how they ride beautiful bikes .
They’re perfect
Just bought a 2008, Tiger 1050 for Rome. When I moved here, I didn’t know what I wanted. After some experiments with a sport bike and a couple of sport touring bikes, including an CBF1000, I learned that because the roads are generally awful, an adventure tourer is I needed.
Yes they definitely make more sense .
Ive got the 2014 Tiger with Tuneecu custom dynotune,decat,slipon,right side bung removed from airbox and its a complete animal.
Yeah that airmod is awesome
You may have just convinced me. I’m doing a trip from the UK to northern Italy this summer and it looks like this is the bike for the job. 👍
It definitely is . You’ll love it .
Happy ‘08 owner here, totally agree with your comments 🖖
Thanks for watching.
Should I get the model 09 10 or I have problems ?..
I've recently bought an 07 1050. I've put over 2000km on it so far. Comparing it to my 08 XJR1300, I find it a bit top heavy and the lean angle on the side stand seems too steep. Rides nice, especially for long distances. For manoeuvrability in the city, I prefer the XJR. For raw power, either real or perceived, the XJR. For weekends away and touring, the Tiger.
Yep I agree
Agree with you on the bandit 1250, just sold a gsx1250fa great bike with loads of give it some torque! 😈
It had a crap seat, which I had re-upholsted into a ugly comfey one! Sold it as have no use for it now that I've got a TS1050.
Missis prefers it on the back, loads more space on the seat, and now she doesn't fly forward when I shut the throttle off, which I had a habit of doing on the Suzuki with its immense engine braking!😉
😎
I have owned a Vstrom for nearly six years and 54,000 ks love it, It is just so damn good and had no thoughts of replacing it. Went to a motorbike museum and saw a red Tiger 1050 belonging to the museums owner (Long story but this guy has won multiple NZ titles racing bikes). Fell in love with it I think I may have found the Strom's replacement. Like the Strom it sounds a great allrounder. Most my trips are long rides 600 - 800 k's on NZ's open roads. Which the Tiger sounds perfect for. I take it your bike has ABS now compulsory here with new bikes.
Yes this is the ABS version, I had a V strom as a winter bike for a while, it was a great bike , just not very exciting ( to me ) . Thanks for watching, I appreciate it.
@@JonnyLeeguitarist Well I bit the bullet and bought a 2009 Triumph Tiger 1050 three days ago. First impressions compared to the Vstrom 650 it 'seems' lighter, it is easier to ride. The windscreen and mirrors on the Vstrom are superior. The engine at low revs is still very smooth and still pulls like crazy by comparison the Vstrom was a bit like a tractor. The handling and brakes unsurprisingly are superior to the Strom. That engine is just glorious, utterly sublime. Seating position is good and at 5' 11" have no problem putting my feet on the deck. I think I am going to love this bike - my niece is begging me to take her for a ride. And the bike looks great, it looks bloody superb with the matching panniers on or off.
@@nickbenfell4327 that’s great news ! And just what I expected. Happy riding ,enjoy the miles and stay safe .
That’s Lower Bebington, through to Bromborough. I have a 2007 Tiger 1050 in Wallasey. Love it.
Correct 😎
It`s cool vdeo imy friend 👍🤗❤🔔 LIKE
I have just sold my 1050, as you say it's a tall bike, quiet engine, and wind buffeting really annoying for me. I have gone and bought my third Suzuki Bandit, the 1250, my other two were the 1200 engine. The Bandit is a great bike as you know, this one's a keeper!
Crashed my Ducati ST. I loved this Tractor :( . After watching your Video, I think I'm going to replace it by a Tiger 1050. Greetings from Germany.
sorry to hear about your crash , you will love the triumph . let me know how you get on with it and thanks for watching .
Ive just bought an se on a 2012 with 21k and the first thing im buying is a taller screen skidmarx 70 quid .hopefully money well spent so far so good having had a tiger 955i previously this bike is awesome abs worked a treat 😀
Yeah it’s definitely a great bike . Thanks for watching.
I just picked up an 07 1050 and I'm pretty excited. Traded it for a Bonneville T100 I loved but my knees felt like they were in my chest and my ass was sore after 2hours. So far I love the
comfort and the power.
Power and comfort , perfect combination. Thanks for watching.
2018 tiger with slip on arrow exhaust - no need to remap and noticeable improvement in sound and performance
Yep arrow are great exhausts, thanks for watching.
2019Plate just got it in November 2020 the best bike ever an she is a keeper
Yes, I can't see me getting rid of mine ever. Thanks for watching i appreciate it.
Yep great bike, I have a 2020 model. Have you fitted engine bars to yours? Just wondering on best ones to go for?
@@grayjohn1906 yes I have HEED , bars on this bike , good bars .
@@JonnyLeeguitarist thanks for reply, those heed bars look the biz on your bike, not sure if they'll fit later model Tiger sport? Plus customs robbing us on EU imports presently!
@@grayjohn1906 no bars on pal but let us know if you get um cheers
Nice review man test rode one recently am 6 ft tall what a comfy bike very very smooth and way more power than you ever need !! Ergonomics for my riding style simply awesome!
Yeah it ticks all the boxes .. thanks for watching I appreciate it.
Love Mine. We have made some US cross country trips.
Sweet !
I may never own a motorbike again, but I still love watching your videos. Makes me really wanna ride again! You’re awesome, mate! 😉👊
Comedy ride: featuring Shrek Lee! 🤣🤘😜👍
Andrew Bonica 😂, thanks my brother
Three years late to the party, just picked up a Mint condition 2008 in black with 25k miles on it. Planning to dip my feet into some early retirement touring on it.
You’re gonna love it .
My 2022 R7 Anniversary Edition hits the excitement itch for me very well on the road, but I needed something I could tour on and keep the extra miles off the R7... I believe this will be perfect.
That rare thing - a both entertaining AND insightful review. Great work. Lost the sound towards the end. Polite Nigel’s revenge ? As a 2010 SE owner I agree with all the comments.
Thanks mate , I appreciate you watching. Yeah RUclips pulled my music at the end . I should fix it really.
Great review,I'm in the same boat had a 1050 sport 2018 and stupidly got rid for a thruxton R 🙄🙄🙄 biggest mistake ever thankfully looks like I'm getting s 2014 3 thousand KS 🤞🤞🤞🤞 if so never selling
Yeah it’s the bike that does everything . I do like a thruxton tho 😎
I own the same. Love her.
I miss my 1050. Probably end up buying another one. They're very reasonable.
Yep they’re epic
Recently bought a used '09 with just 16,000k on it. Need to dial-in the suspension. If I could get it back to factory settings and start from there I'd be happy.
Yeah a good setup really helps these bikes.
great video... Allan,cheers
Cheers mate
Hi Jonny, we've watched a few of your videos, and now I've bought a Tiger 1050.... I mentioned this to a friend in Selattyn pub "The Dock's" and she said she's related to you... Cousin..apparently
Is your dad Arthur?? Her name is Denise Price.. 👍 🏍️👍🏍️😜
My dad is Josh , real name Edward , his brother is Arthur otherwise known as Ernie . Small world 😂
Looks in great shape for an 09.
Yeah man , she’s mint .
My tryumph guy calls my 2010 a speed tiger and I love it and my speed triple is lovely also
Tad Hefflin yeah I’ll never get rid of this bike , she’s a keeper .
I had shifting problems just not smooth started looking the rubber grommets on the shifter mechanism were worn pulled it of clean and grease new grommets shifting problems solved
I have a black 2007 with 29k miles on it, bought a brand new white Tiger 1200 and I can't bring myself to sell the '07!
Yeah I love this thing , it will never be sold . Thanks for watching.
Had to laugh at your comment about the Bandit seat. I did exactly the same, company from France, £380 later and feck all difference
Yeah that french seat was a waste of money…. Thanks for watching mate, I appreciate it .
Have a oct 2020 TTS 1050 and I 'm lady not that big. Not flat-footed but it works well for me 🏍️💃🏍️
That’s awesome , I’m eyeing up the new sport as a second bike , Thanks for watching.
Brilliant enjoy your bike Kim 👍
My home town
Small world 😎
Great review, top work 👏😎😁
thank you.
I enjoy my 2007 TT
Great bike
Thanks for the review! !! Just traded my 96.000 mile multistrada 1200 on a 2003 BMW k1200gt . very nice bike , buttttt I miss the adventure bike seating position . just looked at the inventory at my buddies dealership and son of a bitch he has a black 09 tiger 1050 !! Gonna go have a look later !!!!😄😄😄😄🍺🍺🍺😎😎😎😎
You’re welcome , thanks for watching. Let me know if you get it 😉
@@JonnyLeeguitarist 😄😄😄😎😎🍺🍺
@@JonnyLeeguitarist yo yo Jonny. Bought the tiger 1050 today !!!! First time riding one today! !! Seems geared a bit low , ever change the sprocket ??
Congrats man ! , some people do change the sprockets but I’ve never had to , Its always ran fine . It might be good to see what tune your running on the bike as the triumph mobile app for plug in and play , can cause havoc with performance.
in France we call it " La Merde", French company hopefully is not Baxter / Baglux. lol!
😅
Nice review, congrats! I´m from Argentina, I'm looking at one to buy 2011 model with 36000 Kilometres on it (22000 miles). I am looking for references of the motorcycle. I love this bike, but I am not a wealthy person and I don't want to buy myself a headache. Here I see excellent comments. Would you be so kind as to give me your opinion about the bike? Thanks a lot and kind regards from Argentina.
If it’s been serviced and looked after it will be fine . If it has no service history then walk away from it .
@@JonnyLeeguitarist Thank you very much for the quick answer
@@josesueldo1665 no problem thanks for watching.
2 questions. 1) does that screen tilt up for someone who is 6' 6"?? 2) My name is Alan and I have had people come up to me and carry on long conversations with me thinking I was someone else.
Yeah the screen adjusts .
Have you ever owned a 955i tiger. I have and I’d still have it if a lady from wales hadn’t have ran into the back of my whilst I was stationary waiting at the level crossing in Porthmadog I’m just wondering if the 1050 is better than the 955i. I will say the 955i is too heavy. I’m going to look at a 1050 in the next few days. I have noticed that the 1050 has 2 headlights but only 1 works. Can both work at the same time with a bit of messing around
I’ve ridden the 955 yes , the 1050 is better , easier to handle and definitely lighter .
Taa much. Looking at a 2008 model this weekend. It's black and owned by a Nigel. LOL should have polished tyre valve caps. lol and all the receipts and a dog eared school exercise book listing every penny he spent on it. My kind of 2nd hand purchase!
Yep if it’s been “ Nigeld” it will be a winner 😅
I paid £149.00 for my advanced riding course. I lasted 2 sessions my instructor just pissed me off from the get go. His name was Clive, says it all really.
They’re a strange breed 😂
Dead right. Recently had 3 police motorcyclists pull me and give me advice. Yes 3 all together. I said I use trail braking and it’s my bag not interested in advanced advice. Am 64 and riding since 16. Road craft was from the 60s. I ride the way I feel best but the observations side of that is good, but trail braking is my favourite technique. Not once got bend wrong since I perfected it basically off u tube
Never ridden one, was my first choice for a new one in 09 but people were saying it's a bit top heavy when fuelled up so I got the V Strom. What do you think mate?
I like the strom , still prefer the triumph tho .
My ström feels heavier than Triumph so I think your mates did you a disservice.
@@nickbenfell4327 I agree. I found the v strom heavier when I tried it than my recently new bought tiger sport 1050 from 2020 and I'm not a tall lady. 🏍️💃
I like the Tiger 1050 but is too tall for someone with 30 inches and less inseam. (Short people problem)
Sorry to hear that mate , at least you’ve got RUclips to look at them . Thanks for watching.
I'm a shorter female and I have one. Always try bikes even if the seat height on paper looks too tall. 😊
@@kimbee2604 wise words 😎. Thanks for watching.
@@JonnyLeeguitarist thank you very much! well You (hyperspace explorer) you will be surprised that more is possible than what you think "could" be possible. 👍 💃🏍️
Anybody switched to spoked wheels?
I’ve never seen anyone do that actually , might look cool tho.
Anyone knows what helmet he’s wearing?
Scorpion EXO combat evo …. 😎
Where can I get an engine guard like the one you have it
it was fitted already , eBay has them .
👍👍
I’m talking about it guard you have in front of the bike around the faring
All the Nigel's 😂
Polite 🙂
@@JonnyLeeguitarist polite and restrained, ha ha
Keep em coming, 👍
Egg run this weekend.
Did it last Sunday
Do you not rate thee tigersport ❔⬆️👍
The tiger sport is a great bike , but I found the seat position a little to forward for me , it’s a more aggressive layout . Still a good bike tho .
@@JonnyLeeguitarist I agree, also the seat on the 1050 is actually slightly different to the sport, and it's more comfortable.
@@TheSteps62 I tried a comfort seat on this just before lockdown , it was no different at all . Thanks for watching.
Had a tiger 800,pure junk and cheaply built
Yeah some can be a bit crusty
Really enjoyed your video until you said fuckin cyclist! I love all 2 wheeler's, but fuck the 4 wheeler's! :)
Guess that just leaves " fuck trikes" then .
The mouth smacking was too much
😂
Good review of the bike but... I am a cyclist as well !!! Ridiculous attitude and if it's wry humour it's poorly done.
Thanks for watching
Had my 2012se a bit now and recently had it remapped .. never liked the snatchy low end throttle and the crappy fueling … £420 quid later it’s literally perfect .. extra 10bhp and 18lb extra torque and the low end is impeccable… I’ll never sell this bike .. goes like a stabbed rat 🐀
Yeah the flash is a need .
@@JonnyLeeguitarist had a gsxr 1000 k7 for 8 years before this bike and it was crippling me as I’m now 50 .. got the tiger and now it’s mapped I wish I’d bought one years ago . That triple engine is a monster of torque . 6th gear now at 40mph and It’s throttle and go and I mean go.. and she looks amazing
I sold my 08 gixxer for the same reasons
@@JonnyLeeguitarist where definitely on the same page then 👌
