I recently came across this new Tiger. Checks off all the boxes for me. Love my America but sometimes want something just a bit different. Would love to have a Triumph triple. Hope they bring it to the states but not really expecting it.
09 America, some modifications

It is good looking in a space age way,[ I'm a Dinosaur]I hope it's not too tall.I'd love to ride it,but my knee wouldn't let me.It looks like it could convert me,part time anyway, like Matty said.

Very cool. I always liked the "old" 1050 Tigers too.

It is a good looking bike.. I fell in love with the old Tig-gers back when I worked at the dealership. Strong bikes.. loads of fun to ride too. The earlier ones look kinda awkward but I still like them

My friend Porter had a "girlie" some years ago. Somewhat tall but a very capable bike,natron get and easy to ride a long time. I looked at and test rode a "roadie" at Moto 400 thinking I'd like it but I did not and I can't really say why, except it did not feel as good as the older model. I do like this one's look, though, and I'd love to test ride one.

The Tiger Explorer really appeals to me. The '05 BA was sold last December because it hadn't been ridden much in the past two years. Any excitement about getting another Triumph is off set by not having a dealer in Arkansas. Perhaps when I'm in the position to buy another bike, a dealership will open up.
Didn't buy into the hype, you can keep the change.
