Hey guys, Very nice video. A few comments about the Tiger 800 XCx: 1. Stock tires are just poorly chosen by Triumph. They are 95/5 at best. Changing the tires to proper Enduro tires such as Mitas E07/E10 does wonders to off road capabilities. 2. Triumph geared the XCx incorrectly - the 1st gear is too high. Changing the front counter sprocket from 16 teeth to 15 makes a big difference with low rpm, and is easy and cheap 3. Reset of the off-road mode - yes, a pain in the ass for sure. But instead of shutting down the engine with the key just turn the engine off with engine shut off switch. Lights stay on but for a 5-10 minute break that is no problem and the mode remains. 4. Changing the bulbs to LED makes the light brighter and reduces any issues that could happen due to item 3 above. Super easy to change bulbs and not that expensive. 5. Triumph's OEM foot pegs are just not really meant for off road - too small not enough grip. The solution is easy with after market foot pegs. 6. Installing the BoosterPlug enriches the fuel mixture by 6% and allows smoother power at low RPM (which is where the bike needs it most in technical off road sections) There are many other things that can be done but these make a big difference for a low investment in time and money

I had a 2012 BMW F800 GS Triple black...too much vibration above 5,000 rpm. Now have a 2016 Tiger XCx. I agree that the BMW was a better off road bike due to lower center of gravity and bottom end torque. The Tiger is still good off road but much better on road. I love the WP suspension on the Tiger. And the engine in the Tiger...OMG! so smooth. No vibration. I had Heidnaues on the BMW and now also on my Tiger. Awesome bike!

New channel? Really liking the camera angles and the actual information that your putting into your reviews. Its not all about the spec sheet. And you guys really hit that :) Good job

Wow, guys this video is amazing! Everything from editing to information is a world class! Subscribed!

Greeting from Houston! I was fully engaged in this short, beautiful, and perfectly descriptive summary. Romania, so lovely with the countryside and geographic contrasts. Good English, passionate, fair and balanced. Bravo!

You guys do great, unbiased (it seems) reviews.....thanks

Nicely shot video, and I like that you highlighted the essential specs while sharing your subjective impressions of both bikes. Well done!

very good camera work and editing, really good !!! Narrative comments to the point and lots of information.

thanks for this video guys. I was looking at my next bike this morning and decided on these 2. your video was perfect with all the info I was looking for! cheers

One of the best reviews!!! Great job guys and we waiting more bikes!!! Thanks!!!

Personnally I tried both a few years ago and decided without hesitation for the f 800 gs better power in low rpm.

Great review lads! Good footage, easy to understand and clear summary at the end.

Excellent video! You do very well with your English language videos. Keep them coming! I thought your review was an honest and thorough.

I've wanted a BMW for a very long time, but after reading, watching KZfaq reviews and speaking with friends, I decided that the Triumph Tiger would be a better all around motorcycle for me. I ended up buying a Tiger Triumph XCx. I'm looking forward to the warm weather to do some touring. At first I'll stick to the paved road and some gravel, but as I get more comfortable and experienced I'll try some more challenging off road trails. Thanks a bunch for the review!

Congratulations guys!! What a great comparison you have made. Fantastic scenery and excellent image quality. Keep up the good job. Waiting for your next video, soon. From Villa Dolores - Córdoba - Argentina.

hello guys, I am a long time subscriber, but I just found this awesome video. Two thumbs up .

This is such a well made review (and such a beatyfull landscape)! Thank you.

Nice frames, throughout the review. Good job guys, are those stock tires on the triumph xcx?

Been waiting for a review of these 2 for a while, gained a sub!

Great filming. Really enjoyed it. I have the GS, and wouldn't swop it for anything else.

Nicely produced video guys 😊

Amazing landscape!! Great job!

Amazing, No nonsense review, simplified it so well... cheers

Very nice review! thanks for making it in English !! I just became you subscribe

Ver nice video, thanks for that! Definitly a help to choose between these bikes. Great channel, just subscribed it!

Good job guys, enjoyed it!

Balanced and clear suggestions about both bikes. Usefull video, thanks

Excellent video! Thank you for the information and putting in the great effort to make a good quality video. Thumbs up to you!!

fantastic video shots

Amazing amount of content in under 7 mins. Both bikes are great. Did you guys like the Africa Twin?

Nice work fellas! 👍🏻

Love your videos! Thanks

Awesome! Had to subscribe!

Enjoyed this - thanks; subbed.

great video and comparison, beautifully filmed thank you. What country are you in? Its beautiful

Excellent review, no nonsense.

I am currently busy deciding between these exact 2 bikes.....will be used mainly for tarmac and the odd off road excursion ....so I would assume the Tiger is the better option? Nice reveiw by the way...will subscribe

Nice job guys, will subscribe.

very underrated channel, subbed

Great comparison and beautiful pictures. Thanks a lot guys and keep the good work up! Where did you film? Looks beautiful

Thanks for doing this video, especially in English!

which action cam did you use to record?

Nice review! Subbed.

Thanks for the Nice review guys. In what country is it recorded? Nice environment.

Very cool vid - thanks

Excelent review as always! Excelent music too! Do you know the names of artists? Thanks from Argentina!

Thanks for sending the thread for your new channel.

nice video, Baced on your review, I think I Know my next bike, the Africa Twin....it's almost a mixture of the best of both these bikes combined.

Very well done gentlemen.

Very good comments and beautiful places !!

great video. new subscriber. thank you.

Always love triples the sound and power.

Does an F800 Vibe more than a bike with a V twin?

I couldn’t live with the sound of the Tiger’s valve train, it whirs like a Bernina sewing machine

good review, thanks :-)

That montage song is crunchy AF. Just stock music?

Nice video I rode them both when searching to replace my R1150GSA. Ended up with the Africa Twin based on the deal I got. I will keep it until Yamaha gets of its ass and gives us a 750 Tenere.

Well made video, great photography and editing but could do with a Bit more information about the bikes specs, performance etc.

Great job gentlemen! Exactly the comparison that I have been looking for, and done in some beautiful country. Thanks!

Rest in peace bro. I came up your video still running like nothing happaned to you.

Thks for review

Salut, ce model e geaca de la Dainese?

Good review.

yes, triumph even offers a few lower seat option across the range for shorter riders like me(1.73m is not that short already). and most of them comes with skip plate, hand cover, power charger, bigger screen compared with BMW entry level GS

Good site. Keep it up guys. Just a comparison, my 2003 Honda xrv750 is 218kg wet weight with much more interesting specs.

Succes, romanasii mei

best review!

i buy a tiger 800xca and love this bike, the engine is the best i ever had....sooo smoth this bike, but for offroad i think the africa twin is much more better then the BMW F800GS

Nice vid. But on the bike specs photo, you showed the bmw fuel tank in the front...

Nice Video

Well done. It's an interesting comparison and beautiful countryside ! Great review and the Tiger is...... a Tiger :-)

Thank you

True!

lovely review guys...greetings from india..

In Romania (where the video was shot), the Tiger isn't that popular. And that is a big shame, because it's an excelent advanture bike and a good, everyday to work comuter. Wish Triumph gets the popularity it desarves. And yes mid class adventure bikes are the best. Above 800cc they get havy for off-road and to big for city traffic.

I can't help it but this review seems biased towards the Tiger.

Nice job definitely needed! just work better on the reading part when speaking "naturally" to each other in front of the camera ;).

Awesome you got a subscriber, can you tell me what are these means XR, Xrx, XCx, XCa, what does these 4 versions means? I am looking to buy one of these but cant understand these 4 types of versions am looking for both on road and off road triumph

Where were you guys riding?

Cmpletely agree

Rezervorul gs-ului nu are 24 litri ?

fair review...coz you not from Germany either British..i like it..

I already own a Tiger 800XC and I love it. I watch Tiger-videos when I'm too busy to ride. :) I added handlebar raisers to make it just a little bit more touring oriented and it helps a lot with the ergonomics. I'm planning a trip to Romania from Slovenia this year. We all know the Transfaragasan and Transalpina, what else is the "must see" on motorcycle there? Greetings, Marko

Ok then...where were you riding!? Looks like Bavaria, but probably Spain or Italy?

great review but I bought the f800gs anyway. lol

Filmed in Transylvania, Romania.

great comparison! though i think you should do mother tongue reviews and english subs. you´d feel more comfortable that way

Am probat bmw cât si Triumph, si m-am decis pe un Kawasaki Versys 650 2016 . Ce e rău la el ca nu are cruis control , si nici cel de 1000 ..,

In the street who wins gs or tiger, i don't speak english very well

i m 5.7 feet. should i purchase tiger xrx

Rest in peace homie...

Compare the Tiger to a F800gs(2010) - Shipped with battle wings, non adjustable front suspension, seat could only be ridden for 45 minutes, windshield caused deafness at highway speeds and as fuel level goes down, the bike becomes top heavy and even scary. The Triumph is far and ahead of the F800

I will take bmw800gs

Where is all this beautiful countryside, that being said i disagree with the Top bike. As a KTM 1190 owner I've driven both my ridding buddies

That BMW 800 engine is shocking my wife had the gt worst bike ive ever ridden she kept it for 4 weeks . She's got the tiger now

triumph tiger!!!!

Instead of putting background music on everything, just let us listen to the sound of the bikes please!

Frumos! Salutari din Chicago. (nu, n-am votat cu Trump :)) )

I'll take the ... Africa Twin...

I was expecting more/different from you guys. Everything you've said was said earlier in at least 20 other reviews. And where was the off-road part? I didn't see it, only roads, gravel, tarmac but roads and in very good condition. I can drive my car there, and it isn't a 4x4. P.S. Off-road/enduro raiders don't use topcases and I think you know why.
