Well, I must be getting old but it doesn't look much different to me from all the other overfussy bug eyed ' adventure' bikes out there...and I'd certainly be very hard pressed to pick it out in an identity parade of previous Triumph offerings of this genre.
I took the Road Less Travelled.
Now where the ****** am I?

They don't do much for me,but then again nothing does.IMO they got it all correct with the America/Speedmaster.They should have just put the 1,200 engine in that. I'll reserve judgement on the new speedmaster until I see it in the flesh but it is growing on me.

The Tiger 800 is a great bike. If I was more of a solo rider I'd have one.

I like the new 800 XRx LOW for my short legs and old body, if I'm in the market, that would be a plus option.

Well, at least it has a USB port for kids to keep their thumb-o-phone charged so they can text all the time they are riding.
