Newbie, which one?

If you let people know about your style of riding and ability then that's have the battle over. Welcome to the forum

 

Welcome Plutonio. I would say that going by the bikes of all the most recent newcomers to our little world of Triumphs that a black one is the most popular (other colours are available).

 

Welcome in are you looking for new or pre owned ??

 

A Triumph Tiger 800 would suit your requirements perfectly.

More than adequate power, comfortable riding position, excellent handling, just a really good all round bike.

Depends on how much you want to spend of course but if you can manage it, 2015 and onwards is a significantly better version of an already great bike.

 

Oi dave, thought you don't respond after a fat evening meal!!

 

Lunch dear fellow, lunch



It just lasted 5 hours that's all !!!!!!

 

Hi Plutonio, if you can manage it a 2015 onwards Tiger is, in my mind, the one to go for.

Either an XR or ideally an XRX - be ready if you try one, you'll have to buy it they are THAT good !

 

Welcome in Plutonio, it's all down to how much you can get her to agree too in the end, well that's my problem. Enjoy the witty banter.

 

Hi and welcome, sounds like the tiger 800 road version is going to be the one to start looking at, get diwn a shop have a few rides , try out the sprint GT se while you're at it, much more roady but if your really going to get into 2 up touring it's worth considering. The tiger is a greeeeat bike tho. And often there are deals going with extras.

 

Would any of our taller riders suggest also trying the Sprint which is designed as a sports tourer?

 

Hi welcome to the triumph forum good luck with your search
