Hello all, not got a Tiger but looking around for my next bike, always fancied a Tiger, big fan of Triumphs having owneed two Trophy's and a Daytona all of them 1200's.

Tested both Girly models some years ago, like the 955 but bought a R1100GS 7 years later I sold it. Now have a ZZR1100D1 and a fightered GSX1150EF. But miss the upright riding position of the adventure style bike.

Tried to blag a test ride on a Roadie but dealer sold it day before I was to get a shot, so ended out on the new Sprint GT for a couple of hours, which was very very nice, but still a sports tourer.

Supposedly next year we are suppose to get a lighter true sport adventure bike from Triumph. You might consider picking up an old Tiger for now and holding out big cash for the new model.

The I think the Roadie will grab you if you manage to get a ride, whereabouts are you?
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint

*thinking very hard*
I thought the latest news on this was that they (2 versions: street orientated & off-raod orientated) were to hit the showrooms Autumn'ish this year!?

But that's food for another thread!
