It appears that my post from yesterday was deleted. Oh well. To other 850/900 owners, please review various forums for damage to the bike caused by the OEM and aftermarket bars that attach to the upper subframe, under the beak. There appears to be a strong likelyhood of frame damage caused by the upper bars, as well as tank damage caused when the bars bend into the tank.
The 850 is a great bike, and I love mine. And I hope that others consider staying with lower engine bars and Barkbusters as a better approach to crash protection.
I actually removed the upper bars from the 850 just to see what it looked like, but then put them back on thinking I was tempting fate. When I was attaching them under the beak, I thought it didn't seem like a very good attachment point! Thanks for the comment!
@@Englishbikerdan Thanks for the kind reply. I love my 850 and I've had upper crash bar problems, though no frame damage. Others were not so lucky. Just something I hope other 850/900 owners will be aware of when considering engine bars. 🙏
Ordered mine today. Roulette green
Very nice, enjoy!
You are right about the top box. Was single until I removed it, then I was batting the girls off*.
*in my dreams
Haha
On mine, I had the factory centre stand and hand guards fitted when i bought the bike. I already had a Givi topbox and the Triumph dealership (Webbs of Lincoln) fitted that for free. The only other mod I added later, was a rear hugger. I'd highly recommend one, keeps that rear shock a lot cleaner!
I actually fit a hugger too, I just forgot!
I bought a GT Pro in 22 which included some of your up grades but not all. I, too, installed the upper and lower crash bars and was unfortunate enough to try them twice. Once off-road in a badly rutted hill climb and once on pavement in an overly cocky u-turn. Both happened at a dead stop and both resulted in a tiny, but highly annoying, scrape right where the plastic forward extension of the gas tank meets the steel. Now that both sides of my bike are symmetrical, I’ve adhered a small strip of self adhesive weatherstrip to the inside of the crash bars. I know, too little too late but who knows what might happen around the corner. I see the new ones have that additional attachment to the rear onto the frame.
The way you moved away from those heated grips had me biting my bottom lip
Hahaha!
I'm just waiting for my new (to me) 850 Sport to be prepped and serviced. Bought it to replace a lovely low mileage Tracer 7 which I'd owned for the grand total of two months, before it was written off by an idiot, turning right into oncomming traffic. Happened so quickly; no time or space to take evasive action, hit the car head-on, over the bars, over the roof and landed about 5 metres beyond the car. all I can say to other motorcyclists reading this...SPEND YOUR MONEY ON GOOD GEAR AND BE SURE TO WEAR IT! I escaped with minor bruises and a badly sprained wrist, but if I wasn't wearing top notch gear at the time, I dread to think what could've happened. Tempting to splash out on bling and goodies especially when you acquire a new bike, and then try to save a few quid on riding gear....think the the other way round...Gear first, fakles later
That's a shame about your Tracer 7 but glad you are okay. As you say, bike gear is the MOST important thing to spend money on! Enjoy the Tiger 850!
With all the add-ons, what is the price difference to the 900 GT Pro?
I have a 900 GT Pro with a number of those things from the factory, and those that I didn't have I added myself (crash bars, top box, etc.) + I get cruise control =)
That’s always the thing, isn’t it (and Triumph knows it!)? Me being the comfortable snob that I am, when I spec up an entry-level bike I always end up with a more expensive and worse upper-spec bikes.
I paid about £11k with all of those options. I think it was around £3-4k cheaper than a similar specced GT Pro with luggage and crash bars. Cruise control is nice, but I'd never had it so didn't miss it.
@@Englishbikerdan That’s quite the reasonable price and quite the difference. And pre the last model year it’s not like the 900s had that much more power either.
That was my thinking, and after riding the old 900 and 850 back to back I really couldn't tell much difference in power, if any! New one probably feels pokier!
How much was it in total for mods? Wouldn’t it be better if you chose the GT or GT pro?
It was about £11k. Both GT and GT Pro were a lot more expensive.
@@Englishbikerdan I was asking you about the total cost of the mods. In Europe, this model is about 11400€ without anything. The GT costs around 14800€. I was curious if adding up the mods to the base model would bring you in the vicinity of the GT.
I think I paid about £1000 for the mods.
Ridiculous prices for most of those mods. They're pushing the "premium" BS rather too far. They need to beware the Chinese, as the original Triumph et al were wiped out by the Japanese 5 decades ago.
Some of them sure are pricey, although you could argue that it's a buyer's market. I could have got all of those mods elsewhere and cheaper. Just don't look at Suzuki accessory prices!!
Well equipped bike there...a good choice now well set-up. Hint: ditch the tool jokes.....don't work!
I'm childish and don't mind them at all.
My great tool jokes are here to stay!
