I was very very kindly loaned this lovely bike by Destination Triumph while they carried out the first service on my new Street Triple 765 R.
This is the blurb on the bike from Triumph's website:
"The new road-loving Tiger 800 XRX 'LRH' is an even more accessible version of this easy-handling bike, and is perfect for touring the world’s highways..
The contemporarily styled XRX 'LRH' model comes with an accessible 780mm seat height which is 50mm lower than the standard Tiger XRX, and has the adjustable seat set-up which offers another 20mm reduction to take the lowest seat height setting to 760mm, giving a new accessible riding position.
The more responsive Triumph 800 Triple engine, lighter exhaust system, new full-colour TFT instruments and switchgear, new five-position screen, and four riding modes are just a few of the many features designed into this latest generation XRX Low Ride Height model.
The 19-inch aluminium cast front wheel and Metzeler Tourance tyres work together with the dynamic systems of the XRX 'LRH' model to ensure an enjoyable comfortable all-road ride. You’ll immediately notice the control gained from a new shorter ratio first gear, giving you more low-speed traction and instant responsiveness right when you need it most. This, in addition to category-defining core technologies including ride-by-wire throttle and new premium Brembo front braking system.
The new Tiger 800 XRX delivers a full-on road-focused adventure every single day."
I really enjoyed my time on this "Adventure" style bike, and it really opened my eyes to the more practical side of biking I have mostly tried to avoid in the 27yrs I have been riding bikes. It is awesome that Triumph offer the low ride height versions, and this Tiger XRX 'LRH' or Low as it is also referred to is most definitely awesome. The bikes ground clearance is potentially an issue for those wanting to get proper adventury, but to the majority of folk who buy these bikes it will be all the bike they will need.
Thank you again to Destination Triumph for the loan, and the fantastic customer service I have had from you so far! :-)

Nice review Sir! They are good chaps at Destination Triumph. They lent me the previous Tiger last year whilst the Scrambler was in for warranty work. I too struggled with the buffeting, it wasn't so noisy, more the physical vibrations that was the problem wobbling my visor was sending my eyes funny. Moving the screen up or down didn't seem to make it better or worse. I think the low ground clearance isn't too much of an issue for the road. Like you say, for most people wanting it for what it is, an adventure bike, they aren't going to be hooning it round corners like a sports bike. As for taking it off road, I would definitely want the optional bash plate, and wouldn't want to go too extreme with it off road. Green lanes should be fine. I like the single key for everything choice. I hate that my Scrambler has 3 keys (ignition, steering lock & fuel cap).

Great review! I prefer straightforward evaluations (like this review) that show the rider and bike mixing it up in real world situations. No fancy editing or music or drone shots. Minimal tech jabber is best as well. I can look up specs, equipment and performance data myself. Keep it simple with just enough commentary to allow viewers to experience how you are feeling about the bike and its performance. You did this well here. Thanks!

Thanks Chris. I've often found the more professional style reviews to feel a little scripted which is great as it gets all the points the narrator wants to cover and allows them to time their lines to be on the best corner or view when they say lines, but is often over thought and can feel a bit false sometimes.

Awesome bike. Probably the only adventure bike in the world with low seat height for the inseam challenged people (like myself). I wanted to buy the BMW 310GS but unfortunately they make the bike for 6 feet tall people instead. Triumph makes the right call, because there are 3X more people under 6 feet tall. The market is huge IMO.

Good review of impressions! Now I want to check one of them out myself. By the way, the excop bike, if it is like around here in the US perhaps they got it as used/decommissioned which may have been a lot of savings for what the bikes offer in luggage. Years ago I picked up a used cop bike for about $4k used less than a comparable civilian version.

Aye, they auction them off periodically, the folk that play dress up on them are pretty much hated in the UK by all road users. I don't understand why someone would think it is a good idea to impersonate a police officer??? In the UK it is illegal to do so, which is why they wear those "POLITE" hi-vis vests so they can get around the law.

Hippo-Drones Yes, I have seen the Polite patrol vests. Same here on impersonation. I figured the courts would have settled that mess by now. Out in the countryside, we sometimes see surplus cop cars rolling around but considering how many cops rolling in unmarked vehicles, I figured it is tit for tat. Almost as if the low socioeconomic rung and the LEOs are playing red rover on who drives what... 😁😊😐

when you get your 765 back see if they have done the tft update. you'll lose the low contast setting so you cant then leave it on the black background, you will have high and auto contrast setting only after update. also check the mapping and see if any changes have been made. rs owners have lost the track map on this dealer update. bit naughty of triumph to do this as the bike was sold with this installed. as your bike is new it may already had the update installed.

Nice non technical review from a decent biker . I have the low xrx version which is great fun and very flexible - it has 3 rider modes and as as you say it does suffer from lack of ground clearance. As I’m not long-legged it suits me but I do have to compensate with my lean angle on tight bends. With luggage that causes problems and rear suspension has has to be adjusted to avoid too much weight at back end or front wheel will lift.
@HippoDrones
@HippoDrones 4 жыл бұрын
Thank you John, it is a cracking bike, and a great choice for people like us who are shorter in the leg that want a decent mile muncher and adventure bike. I also have to compensate on lean angles on track with my Street Triple 765R [LRH] as it also runs out of ground clearance way before it runs out of tyre. I fitted rearsets to that which has fixed it, but not so easy to do that on an adventure bike. It is a phenomenal engine, I can imagine it doesn't take much to get the front wheel in the air intentionally or inadvertently! :-)

The reasons I purchased the XRX Low are easier explained in a video I done , kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f6-Vq5ef39DLpaM.html, The XR versions are more road focused with the ability to handle dirt roads, If you wanted to do more off road riding the XC versions would be the way to go, Triumph also do a low version in that range and sit higher than the XR low as you would expect. As for panniers etc I went with Givi (shipped from Italy) mainly because they are basically the same but at half the price, so having an extra key is worth it, thats here in Australia anyway. Nice video always good to hear other vloggers first impressions.

Personally, I like your style of review! What a 'First Impressions' review should be! Not sure how tall you are, but A Garden Shed Vlogs tried his Dads 'normal' size Tiger 800 with the seat in the 'low' position and said it was fine. I see what Triumph are trying to do, and applaud them for it, but, I confess I'm not a fan of this reducing the suspension ride height, the one's I've tried (not tried the 800 as yet) always seem 'out of proportion' and you end up with your legs doubled up, and your knees higher than your hips! Sub'd, and off to look at some of your other vids.

They need to stop calling these bikes 'Adventure Bikes', because they are not. They are adventure styled road bikes which replaced the sport tourer market. In the same way as Vauxhall Mokka's Nissan Dukes etc... in the car world, replaced the family car. Yes you can get versions that could go off road, but that's not what they are designed for and reach their limitations very quickly.

Aye, if you ride the bike with any pace, on tarmac, the footpegs ground out.... which doesn't bode well for riding offroad. I was comparing the clutch play and position to my 765 Street Triple, I know they are adjustable, it was just an observation. Normally I don't mess with other people's bikes, even demonstrator bikes. Had I been in the market for the Tiger, I may well have adjusted them, but I was not, I had just brought a brand new Street Triple, which was under warranty, which in the UK means I have to get the bike serviced at a Triumph dealership. I am more than capable of changing the oil and filter etc, am an ex engineer from the Royal Navy and have also worked on many bikes that I have owned. As for reading the manual.... I have never been given a bike manual to read before taking a loan bike. Thank you for the view and comment and add revenue, be sure to pop by and say hi again soon you happy little camper x

I think I have figured out how I can adjust three points to get the pedal where I want it to engage and still make the light go on .. I guess I will stick with the 800 XCA which has heated seat and grips 21" front tire ect .. it's the most off road oriented version of Triumph .. There are laws in the USA a Dealer can't force you to use their maintenance .. for Warranty .. You just have to show you changed the oil ect when it was supposed to be done .

Just rewatching to see the error of my ways@@ekibarthenid The engine guards I mentioned are not the bikes frame, it is the plastic on the clutch cover. No idea if stock or accessories though, or even if it offers protection of any kind, but it is def not the bikes frame though 😀
