Triumph's new and improved 2015 Tiger 800 XRx. The "roadie" now has traction control, fly by wire, and cruise control. 95 horse power makes for a ton of fun.

That looked a blast ! That engine is a peach eh?! Yeah the front suspension was the problem with mine and I'd have kept it if it wasn't for that. The bike is quick and nimble enough to entertain quick riders and so easy to ride in traffic too. Great all rounder!

I had a 2012 Tiger 800. It always seemed to be lacking front end feel and I lacked confidence in turns because of it, not to mention the Pirelli Scorpion Trail tires which suck. I rode the 2018 Tiger 800 XRT and it's totally different experience. The adjustable front suspension makes a big difference, but there are so many other improvements including far better tires, improved throttle mapping, fueling, and engine tweaks. And the TFT screen is fantastic! I think I may go back to having a Tiger 800 again soon.

Sweet bike, if it gets the good 40 to 50+ MPG on the fuelly.com they say, it's winner in my book, even though it's rated higher, 58 to 60+. Plus the bike makes from it's 799cc I-3 triple Claimed to 94 horsepower and 58 lb-ft of torque! Not bad and about perfect for fun. There seems to be distortion in the windscreen though, not sure I like that, but it looks better than the ST675 r bug eyes.

Love how cruise is coming to these smaller bikes. Wish the fly by wire mapping has been better over all the companies, but not the end of the world. Also yea, that subframe design is pretty terrible....but what u gonna do - that's why we have insurance, haha.

So question - saw you rode the Street Rx - how did you feel the screen and handguards affected your comfort levels and how did you feel about the bike compared to the Street?

Joel Highway if u aren't looking to do any offroad then I'd suggest a sports tourer like a vfr800 or a gsx650f. Sports tourers are quicker than adventures but don't have the offroad capability

I had the Tiger 1200 explorer and changed it to the Tiger 800 XRX. The XRX ticks all the boxes you mentioned. I toured Northern Spain and Portugal and the 800 will do it all, loaded with luggage and then light for around the city use. A great bike with a comfortable riding position.

Would have to agree the more I look at this bike the worst the frame looks, it has that unfinished look to it, or it needs to be covered by panyards, or just something ? Do like the motor power & it has a decent size fuel tank too, and the seat looks to be a good one, by shape & others comments. Not sure the non adjustable forks & shock are a big problem, that I would have to ride the different versions to know, but I would think more adjustability would be better. If I compare it to a Suzuki dl650 witch I do have is there any real benefit besides power, it does have a very high claimed MPG, but most of the bikes don't come even close to it when using fuelly for the averages. Triumphs webpage said it should get 77+ mpg @ 55 mph but most run in the mid 40+ average. on the other hand my DL650 get 60 to 64 mpg for real, yes it has less power, but does have better protection from the elements, maybe this bike is just not for me, yet ? BTW a good job on the bike... yl

@ 0:33 That frame should be in sections/parts. One unit? That's not good! Especially if you live in a big city, tip overs *will* happen. - Someone backs into/hits your bike when they park their car/bus/truck. - When you lose control of bike....oil slick, gravel, etc. - car turns in front of you. Etc., etc In my opinion, that's deal breaker for me, especially since the bike isn't cheap to begin with.
