I have forgiven Triumph for the Odometer issue. The menu on the previous generation was superior and the display was tiltable. Thanks for the comment! 👍

Not here in the USA! It's Aluminum. Different words across the pond for the same metal.

​@@ttrguy9952All of us speak English, but some of us are listening to Samuel Johnson.

Thank you so much!

Thanks for the comment! My deflector is the MRA X-Creen and it deflects the air way over my head with the windshield all the way down. Is the Puig wider?

@@ttrguy9952 I have a cheap Chineseium deflector coming on the slow boat from China. I will get one like yours if it works. At 6'3. The stock screen funnels ALL the air right in my face. My touring screen doesn't give me any air. I like to ride with my face shield up and have a little air going. I hope this works.

New York state has some beautiful roads and small old fashion towns. 👍👍

Thank you Sir!

During the week there's nobody on the roads or in the restaurants. 👍👍🤗

Thanks man! Just have to watch for deer and bears. They're everywhere.

Same way here. Enjoy the nice weather

@@ADVDad-hw9ls We are still waiting for it to stop raining here. Non stop with maybe one iffy day per week. Tomorrow is supposed to be epic with rain the rest of the week until Sunday. I'm editing 2 videos right now and will do video tomorrow and Sunday. Thank you for the replies friend! Ride SAFE and BE safe!

Since I don't do any off road except the occasional dirt road, I prefer the rigidity and security of the Triumph/GIVI hard cases. Although everything else is SW-Motech such as the Top Case and Tank Bag.

I was so used to the menu bar at the bottom of the screen on my last Tiger because it was so convenient to use and configure. I'm now used to my new one and there are a few shortcuts to get to the things I want to see. Thanks for the comment! Ride SAFE and BE safe!

Thanks for the comment! The MRA X-Creen Sport deflector on mine is perfect because of it's adjustability. I like my screen all the way down as I hate looking through plastic. I have the deflector angled in such a way that the air is over 1 foot above my helmet with the main screen all the way down. This is what you need.

My bike is the GT Explorer not the Pro. The tank bag is SW-Motec. It attaches to a ring on the gas tank filler cap. If you go to my video about the mods I did to the bike, you can see it there. 👍

@@ttrguy9952 Grazie!!

@@emmezero 👍👍

No update as far as the display goes but as I have gotten used to the new one, one click and I have what I need to see. Triumph now has a "Lowering" feature that is a free software update that my dealer will install. 👍👍

​@@ttrguy9952thanks for the info! My bike is actually at the dealer due to a faulty battery... They delivered the bike and when I started it, the faulty battery error appeared... So had the bike for 30 min (the time it took me to get it back to the dealer)... I just called them and asked that they update the software at the same time 😎 Is it for all models, not just the rally pro? I have a the GT explorer

@@posdiver I think it's just for the GT Explorer. Ask while you are there. 👍

​@@ttrguy9952got the update installed and it works wonderful. Lowers the bike just a tad more and that helps moving it with secure feet on the ground.

Ride SAFE and BE safe! 👍👍

Thanks for the comment! You will not regret it!

Thank you for the comment! The Main lights are the best of any motorcycle I've owned. The cornering lighting is perfect! The only thing I changed was to direct wire the auxiliary riding lights so they would stay on with the high beam lights on. Otherwise they automatically turn off when the high beam is on. Ride SAFE and BE safe friend! 👍

Thanks for the comment! The deflector is made by MRA in Germany and it's the X-Creen Sport with the universal mount. It's in my "Add Ons" video. Check it out. Ride SAFE and BE safe!

Terry thanks! 👍👍 Just think of the Zip Tie as a sexy garter belt! Actually I'm still fine tuning the suspension here and there. It's my obsession! 🤪

Mine's a '23 also. It is the very first one sold in the USA. We spend every weekend trying new lunch spots far from home in upstate NY and MA.

The last generation's menu bar was great. The new motorcycle itself is beyond the last generation in every way.

If there is any complaints with the Sedici gear, easy return to either Cycle Gear or Revzilla. Zero questions asked. That's why I buy in person instead of online. F the major hyped brands! Peace friend!

I mentioned in my video about the length of the start part of the zipper being short. You just have to get used to making sure it stays seated all the way down in the pull side. Other than that it's perfect. Ride SAFE and BE safe!

I'm loving my metallic black. 👍👍

I haven't ridden 2 up but with all my gear loaded on equals a person on the back. Not an issue for me. Because the electronic suspension keeps the bike level, the handling stays the same. The Hill Hold feature works great when loaded to the max.

Mine is not even close to touching lock to lock. Maybe they had the bag adjusted too far forward. Welcome to the internet!

@@ttrguy9952 it was adjusted all the way back, and touched st full turn. You never turned your bars like they did, so that's all I have to go on.

@@mlydick Mine doesn't. I turn my bars all the way when parking. No touching.

Yeh, It's nice to have the mileage always there but there is an easy work around with the menu.

That is when you are in the menu mode. A selectable list of all the bikes features pops up on the right side of the screen.

I'm used to the work around for the ODO now. Yes, the screen moves to the left and squishes to see the TPMS and Fuel status menu but I am also used to that. The display to me is perfect being very nice to read and simple. Everything else overshadows the display. Thanks for the comment and for watching!

The wind deflector is made by MRA in Germany and it's the X-Creen Sport Universal Mount. It is a "Must Have" and it has been on all my Tigers. It is the best on the market. Because the screen tilts and can be moved up and down, you adjust it to where you want the wind to go. It looks low on my windshield but it is adjusted so the wind is going about a foot over my helmet with the main windshield all the way down. Check out my "Triumph 2023 Tiger 1200 GT Explorer Add Ons" video and it's near the end.

Thank you! Once you've ridden either the GT Explorer or the GT Pro, they are virtually the same. The only difference is the features.

@@ttrguy9952 I hope my experience is the same because to be honest - I'm switching from a street/naked bike (2018 Suzuki GSX-S 750) and I just wonder now how will I manage with the increased weight. Then again - I've watched plenty of reviews that the Tiger 1200 line is very well balanced and it just wants to be turned in corners. Can't wait for next season to get my hands on it. Meanwhile - subscribing to your channel and waiting for more videos! Cheers from Poland :)

@@DukeJohnny If you are going from a street/naked bike, you will be right at home on this. You will not notice any weight once you are moving. You can ride the Tiger GT like a sport naked bike and not know the difference except for the massive power. It handles like a much smaller motorcycle so don't let the size fool you. Triumph killed it with the new Tigers!

@@ttrguy9952 thank you sir! I'm super excited to take the Tiger for a test ride this year and hopefully purchase one as well afterwards :) It's so much more appealing to me than the german competition (said by a bloody Pole) so it's at the very top of my shortlist for the next and ultimate machine. Safe travels!

@@DukeJohnny BMW doesn't compare. Different league and planet. Keep me posted! 👍👍

I Have the SW-Motech side cases for when I ride off pavement days. They both have advantages and disadvantages depending weather you ride on or off road.

A lot of folks don't realize how great these bikes are for ripping up miles.

How do you like it?

@@royhall3760 I love this bike! It's a blast to ride and handles beautifully.

Thanks for the comment. Mark's is NOT an official Triumph dealer. Just check Triumphs website. I made the mistake of buying from them once. Never again! I buy only from Libby's and have done so since I was a kid. Family run and best of the best. Do you ride?

@@ttrguy9952 I used to ride years ago with dual sports and smaller street racers. I took the local MSF, and my skills are still there. Even on the loaner 250cc's, it was a lot of fun. I'm getting back into it but keep getting dinged financially and money earmarked for a new bike ebbs and flows. Already looking at next season. I've been to Libby's but it was not a great time during the pandemic and inventory was probably at its lowest. I really like the retro nakeds, ADV bikes after that. I suppose my target is the Kawasaki Z900rs. I'd like to buy new but it may expedite things to buy used. Honestly, I'd be happy with anything at this point with mid controls Locally, I would day trip in your area and have a good friend who lives in Goshen. Longer ride plans include visiting my sister in Western NC, the Finger Lakes in central NY, and then numerous trips into Canada. Anyway, probably more than you wanted to know. Heh, sorry🙃

The huge TFT only shows Speed RPM and Gear. I happen to like an ODO right there in my face. I can watch the miles click off.

@@ttrguy9952 fair, I suppose, but with two trip meters, I can split the screen and display the trip meter I've never cleared...which is essentially an odometer at this point. I only need one trip meter.

I do like to know the milage, using the odometer, as I keep a log of the usage, costs etc. Using the bike for work etc.

@@herrevisser just flick the joystick to the left for your mileage info and trip meter. 🤷‍♂️

@@herrevisser All the information is still there except you have to go into the menu to get it. I'm used to it now.

Thanks for the compliment! This bikes a keeper. Ride SAFE and BE safe. 👍👍

I don't know what a "Leigh Tryon tiger rally explorer" is but I think you meant Triumph Rally Explorer. The Triumph Tigers are bullet proof as far as reliability. Mine is the GT model which is more street oriented. The Rally is more off road oriented

Thanks Terry. I miss the menu tray. Yes it was easy to get everything there. I cannot fault anything else on the bike. Love it! The lunch spot, AJ's, is legendary for their food. Best dry rubbed Cajun wings on earth! Yes I LOVE my Cafe Racers! The RR however is almost too ferocious and is not a relaxing bike to ride. It is all business and demands focus at all times. When I ride it I wonder how something like this is even legal to own as a street bike! I'm on the fence about it right now because of that. The only reason I want it is because it is beautiful to look at next to my Thruxton. Ride SAFE and BE safe Sir!

There is a quick short cut to get there but I agree, I want it right there Old School Style. My Speed Triple RR is the same. Cheers

I'm curious...why do you need to constantly know what your odometer says? Seems like useless clutter to have it displayed all the time. It's only really necessary for service intervals, or if you sell the bike. And even for service intervals, you'll get a flashing wrench overlayed on the clock. 🤷‍♂️

@@Kevimoto The odometer is "Traditional" on displays. It's just a line of numbers and not at all clutter. The Tiger dash is 7" of wasted space only showing Speed, gear and RPM. When you put your key in your car, it's there "ODO" all the time until you shut it down. It's NOT there for only "Service Intervals", it should there for convenience on a ride. I like watching my miles go by...

@@ttrguy9952 to each their own, I suppose. I'd rather watch the scenery. I don't see it as wasted space, since you can split the screen and nothing gets so small that you have to squint.

Mine came with the side cases. I put the SW-Motech top bag and Tank bag on as well as the upper bars and the larger skid plate. Mine was the first GT Explorer in the US for almost 6 months. They changed everything from my last 2020 Tiger and it is unbelievable how much better it is. BMW got nothing on this bike! Ride SAFE and BE safe!👍👍
