Quote from article in Bike Magazine posted on TriumphRat.net by bareyb -



"Triumph's 2007 Tiger 1050 is an improvement over the current model in every way, having shifted away from the existing giant-traillie design to an all new entirely road based focus."



"the Tiger has gained in all kinds of ways : more comfort, more space to move around, more confidence in corners and more braking power, not to mention more power and torque throughout the rev range. The only thing it's lost is weight - down 17kg to a claimed 198kg dry."



" it still has the Tiger's plush ride, but it feels more composed, a lot more together. It steers and picks a line so much easier and the brakes are far better."



"the Tiger's also developed something completely new - a bit of fun, naughty streak, which extends its appeal beyond being simply a decent, all-round road bike. The DNA of the new Tiger is pure Speed Triple.......................but it's not as focused-if anything it's a better bike because the Tiger offers a stability and civility the Triple doesn't. It's more comfortable, more forgiving, but still retains some of that fun character."
