Hello from Durham, North Carolina, USA. Riding a 2022 Triumph Tiger 900 GT LRH. Previous bikes mostly Honda VFRs, a BMW R1200RT, a BMW F800GT. I find this bike to be somewhat less cushy than the RT on the road, but a great deal more comfortable than the RT anywhere other than cruising on the highway. I think it's a lovely bike to ride, even with the noisy Metzlers that came with it.
Nice part of the world to ride a bike (as long as you leave the city). Enjoy the ride and keep the shiny side up!
