Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro | The Best Tiger Ever?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ย. 2024
- I've tried the Tiger 900 GT so it makes sense to see how the Rally Pro version compares. With its 21" front wheel and long travel suspension its made for some off-road actions, so it would be rude not to test it out!

i’ve just bought one in the matt green , had it four weeks and I absolutely love it, another great video Mr Chops 👍
Still one of the best reviews of the Tiger 900. The fact you actually accelerate hard and report back on the feel of the bike is brilliant.
Thanks buddy appreciated 👍
Well done, excellent camera angles, and I like that you leaned on the throttle to show full performance, sounds like you enjoyed the ride...great review.
So I've owned a Street Triple S 660, now have a Speed Triple RS . I love the smoothness of the triple engine, and the massive grunt of the 1050cc. I did get a test ride of one of the road going versions of the Tiger 900 when I was getting my new Speed Triple. I did find the T plane crank a bit "lumpy", I much prefer the smoothness of the traditional 120 degree crank.
The rest of the Tiger 900 was pretty good, but for me they'd need to offer a 120 degree crank. As far as I can tell they might have just as well put a twin cylinder engine in the Tiger 900, if that's what Triumph are really after.
It's the only bike I can really think of that's trying to use a Triple cylinder engine to go off road. Imagine an in-line four off road now that would be crazy
Pheasants Phorever! Great vid, Chopsy and really enjoyed the comparison you provided between the GT and Rally. That style of review is well received.
Thanks Stitch 👍
Don’t think I’ve seen you so excited about a bike before Chops. That Triumph look to be so user friendly on them green lanes buddy. Think you enjoyed the ride too mate 😀🤣
I've never had any interest in adventure bikes (mainly because they are bulky and ugly) but today I took this exact bike on a test ride while my Speed Triple was getting serviced and oh my god, it was literally one the best and most fun bikes I've ever ridden! It was pleasant to just cruise around but also freeing and fun to go ride on bad gravel roads when normally I avoid them at all costs. I'm not ready to go full middle age just yet, but I can now see myself riding one of these in the future when I get older and value comfort and versatility over pure performance :D
Hey great vid Choppsy, and great bike eh? I love the Tiger 900, defo one of my "bikes of the year"......might have to subscribe to you one of these days.....
Great to see you here
Yes loved both versions, preferred the look of the Rally but ride of the GT. bloody good bike though and deserves the MCN win imo 👍 subscribe and dont forget to ding that bell 😂
TMF, love to see you repeat you CRF Salisbury Plain video on a Rally Pro
Nice review!! I really want to see a comparisation against de Ducati 950S/ V2
Nice review. I heard on another channel that you can actually set the rear brake higher or lower for standing up by twisting it or something like that to accomodate for riding sitting down or standing up
Amazing cloud formations in the sky!
Love that wide angle camera view over the top of your helmet. Beautiful. Great vid.
You nailed that review I want one.
Test rode this bike really liked it,but being a happy KTM 1290 SDGT I’m waiting to try the 890r and maybe even the rally version if my dealer can get one.
Nice vid, I enjoyed that 👍🏻 I agree about the size, this seems like it hits the sweet spot?
Well done avoiding those birds, bloody hell!
Looks like a really good bike. Last triumph I owned was the original rocket 3 back in the day. Enjoyed it immensely. Build quality on this looks quite good. Good video Mr chops.
Man the sky looks cool when u go to 360 camera view
I’d really like one of these bikes. I’ll be saving some money up to buy myself something fancy next year. Contenders so far are:
Kawasaki Versys 1000
Honda AT Adventure Sports
Tiger 900 Rally Pro or GT pro
Really leaning towards the triumph. I’ve only ever owned Japanese bikes (they’ve all been fantastic) but I think I want to try something a bit different. My only concern would be Triumph’s reliability which, firsthand, I know nothing about. Great video!
Good vid Chops... I’ve got a GT pro and love it, can’t fault it - I can see why it’s MCN’s bike of the year ! Preferred Gt pro to Rallye as I don’t do off road.
Yes agree, would be my choice for the same reason I think
Just a shame the colours are limited in the GT....still, doesn’t cost much to paint it however I want.
@@mazdar100 true, you know Triumph - will bring out new colours in a year. Love the green Rallye paint but preferred ride of GT .....
Hi Mate I have a Tiger Rally WHAT a Bike !!! Love what you Brits have Done. It Does it All and then some I am a Dirt guy from way back and it Ricks in the Dirt ! Great Video Cheers..
Great review chopsie - I can see why other you tubers come to get tips on how its done ;) Great editing as well with those two 360 cameras and your passion for riding really comes through
Thanks Windy 👍
Great review again chops. Thats a capable machine with all the goodies . Brilliant camera angles too 👍😊
Taking someone else's bike off road, you are a brave man choppsy, the insurance excess usually scares the life out of me !
I checked with Triumph and they were happy for me to try it 😎
Nice vid. Makes a mockery of needing a giant 20k adventure bike! Didn't this win MCN's annual award for the category?
Yes it did 👍
Agree with you totally about getting anything larger, heavier bulkier. I had an R100GS once, should have stuck with the R80GS. Bike should come with knobbies.
Whereabouts is that lovely lane around 13 mins. Beautiful nice to do on a big old bike!
I had a Rally Pro for a day last week whilst my Speedtriple was in for service. Very nice bike in many ways, but I couldn’t live with the engine vibes....
Bad vibes will make you get rid of a bike in a hurry.
I thought the same but bought one anyway. I notice the vibes less and less the more I ride it. Long motorway trips not a problem, fingers dont feel numb or anything. I feel it adds some rough character to the bike. I will say that I think the demo bike I test rode vibed more than the one I ended up buying, or I just got used to it.
Where’s the Hypermotard? Have you forgot how to put it together? It would scare me! Good luck and look forward to seeing it done.
Your videos are very interesting, lovable, not boring to watch ..keep doing good work 👏
Thanks Nishad 👍
In the market and was looking for reviews, excellent content 👍🏍💨
We're rapidly approaching that time of year when it's time to get your hands on a 2 stroke 250 enduro bike :) and maybe take a look at doing the ridgeway?
Hell yes!! Unfortunately KTM and Husky 2021 fleet delayed 😫 hopefully early next year
Very nice vid LCR. I have the same bike and loving every bit of it. When is the LCR garage coming back with the Ducati.
Who knows... I'm hoping very soon when the heads are back 👍
Best adventure bike on the market! ID buy the GT PRO as I don't think I would off-road. I think you should sell all your bikes chops and get one of these and a BMW S1000RR. That would be a fantastic garage.
Yes probably a very good idea!
Great Review. Really liking this Tiger 900 Rally. I do believe it will be my next bike in the stable. Trying to figure out how to keep the 800 XRT as well, for optional situations, you know. (Just have the wife to persuade !!! ) Thanks for the great ride review.
Fab vid s always, I'll be going for one in February I think after a recent extremely enjoyable test ride in beautiful North Wales.
Thanks Chopsy, been waiting for this review before deciding on GT Pro or Rally Pro.
Glad it helped Nick!
5000 50/50 riding in Colorado. Best do all highway/fire, mining road bike ever. I've owned KLR, XR650, KTM690, Scram 12XE, Tiger 1200 and 800.
Good review as always Mr Chops. Good to see you take the rally Pro get taken down a green lane or two. So many TH-camrs don't take them off road which is infuriating as that's what the Rally is set up for.
Yes absolutely no point reviewing this version otherwise imo
Hi John was wondering if you can answer this question as you probably guessed I’m a Triumph tiger Fan I currently have a 800 XCa simple because I prefer the look of it to the XRt but the real question is why don’t TH-cam Vlogger compare GT Pro & The Rally Pro on identical roads though I know one is more road oriented ant the off road oriented I personally would still like to hear your opinion on this keep up the great content love watching 👍👍👍🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍🏴
great vid chops. best biking channel on youtube.
Thanks Jake 👍
Great video thanks. I’m interested in your opinion what you think of the difference between this Rally pro version and the GT pro. If you want this bike as a tourer/allrounder but mostly on road but maybe sometimes not often offroad which bike would you go for? If you want a pillion and luggage bike which is the better bike for that purpose? Which of this bike handles best on the roads and twisty roads? Is there better even then go for the Rally because of the specs? Its hard to find a video about this when as soon as you talk about the Rally version its always in dept of the offroadhandling and not so much on the on road handling. Would be great to hear your opinion on that. Maybe a video? Thanks for your great chanel.
👏👍💪
GT feels much nicer on the road due to the smaller front wheel. If you dont plan on doing more serious offroad certainly get the GT much better for the streets. Has all the toys the Rally does 👍
Great video, great questions.
Do you think the GT pro could handle off road of this levels if geared up correctly. I'm torn between the two but my height has me leaning g to the GT but want to do some camping and light off road
@@LambChopRides thanks for the answer its very helpful😃
Yes sure GT could manage gravel lanes absolutely, the 21 inch only makes a big difference if going over large obstacles like rocks etc 👍
Excellent quality review, and stunning sky.
Who gets to wash the Tiger after the green lanes😗. Nice review; the Tiger certainly deserves consideration in the middleweight adventure class. Might be on the heavy side but would have to ride to see if an issue.
Another good review Lamb Chop. I would need a step ladder to get on this bike.
Hehe it's not too bad Lyn, comes with a two stage seat height too! Or a lowering seat 👌
Good review, might be tempted off my GSA next time, and you arranged a stunning sky😀
Yes beautiful wasnt it, very lucky that morning!
Great video Chops! Any plans to do the Tenere 700? I think you'd get a long with that bike nicely
Nice review! Old Winch Hillfort made a cameo I see!
WOW Chopsi - you did off-road, i could hear you are not in your right element at all. But have said that, i love your video.
Your Sincerely
The Danish Viking.
Thanks Mr Viking 👍
I test rode it, great seating position, vibrates through foot pegs, I felt the engine struggled at higher speeds
Yes not as much grunt as larger rivals at speed but more than enough imo
Not my kind of bike but still enjoyed the review, thanks Chopsy! Im looking forward to the Fireblade review.
Another great vid. Keep them coming chopsy 👍🏼
Great review. Thought I recognised some of those locations. You riding through Clanfield at the end confirmed it. Happy Xmas! ;)
Yes indeed Clanfield well spotted 👍 Happy Xmas 🍻
Great video, your channel is quality 👍😊
Thanks mate 👍
If your able to get your hands on a KTM 790 ADV R or the 890 ADV R that would be great, I am really thinking about getting that bike and I wanna see your two sense on it. Thank you Mr. Chop
HI Champ
another great video again that over head camera is cool what camera bracket is it
Nice review. Thanks!
Beautiful bike! Sounds nice too. I hear the crash bars can make for some strange vibes and sounds though.
Hmm didn't notice that David 👍
Tiger 1050 is the best!
It'll be good if triumph make tiger 1160 with the engine that's going into the speed triple
That engine sounds beautiful
Nice video... nearly got a face full of pheasant there at one point though, had that happen to me before ‘Straight in the kisser’
Haha yes they bloody hurt at speed dont they! Haha
Looks like a seriously good bit of kit!
Yes it is Pete! Suit that Fishy fella if he could prise himself off a Honda for 5 mins 😂
@@LambChopRides :D hahaha... he has Honda blood in his bones! :D
Beautiful chem sky where you are chops
Awesome, nice review!
Great review chops
Great work 👍 might as well go for the g t pro then ?! , that bike will easily do those types of lanes ! And Like you said most adventure style bikes never do difficult off roading 👍
Yes agreed unless you want to chuck some real terrain at it 👍
That thing is a bloody bird magnet!
Haha it is! Not only the winged variety 😂
@@LambChopRides I’m just a pheasant plucker.......
I literally thought those gunshots were legit for a second or two 😂
On a side note chops, and you're probably sick of hearing it, but when is the next Hypermotard vid coming?
Feels like ages ago since we saw the last one 😪
Yeah no progress on Hypermotard... been chasing about the heads but no news yet 😫
‘Morning sir’? Are you the missenden flyer now?
Back brake has two positions, twist round to make higher 👍
Where in Europe is this somewhere in England please inform and amazing video and bike wish I had one
Morning chopsy. If you had 7k to spend on 1 all-rounder bike. Where would you put your money? Love your work as always. 👍
Very hard choice Kevin... personally I would probably go the supermoto route, either 690 smcr / 701 or Hypermotard..
How do you find 21” front ends? Would you prefer 19”? Great vid yet again 👍🏻
If you intend to stay on tarmac the GT is better on the road. 👍
Fab review mate
Still waiting for the Hyper motard rebuild
Great video,missed the stand up wheelie!🤣👍🏍
Haha, off camera 😂 not
What do you reckon, will all the electronics last in Africa? Although we have great asphalt roads, I'm more inclined to ride on dirt roads / offroad. We don't have green lanes here mate, only rough dirt roads with lots of dust.
Plus you can turn everything off if you want.. 👍 Did you get anything vibrating at highway speed? Or was it just in the 5-6k RPM or higher?
How does the triple engine compare to the competitors engines, for power, torque, smoothness, etc.?
Great bike.Thks.
Good video but what's happening with the ducati 🤔
I agree, best tiger, ( I owned s 2016 800 xcx for a while) I rode this rally pro a few months ago, and is the better of the two versions for me, great spec bike for the money. Cheers Reg @threesixmoto
Great video, what is this bikes top speed ? And have you ridden the bmw f850gs, if so who would win in a drag race between the f850 and the tiger 900 ?
Good question.. I've only ridden the old F800 so hard to compare. But to that bike the Tiger would certainly win!
Great review. This is my next bike. Do you know Jesus? You mention Him often.
I'm looking at purchasing an adv bike next year. How does this bike stack up a Ducati Multistrada 950 S as far as value and comfort?
Awesome review but what I would like to know if you were buying a Tiger what one would you buy GT pro or Rally Pro 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🏍🏍🏍🏍🏴
GT as I wouldn't take it offroad 👍
@@LambChopRides thanks for that like you really love the look of the rally Pro so hopefully Triumph will give us that colour on the GT Pro 👍🏍🏍🏍🏍🏴
So does this ride as well on the road as the GT Pro with the 19" front wheel? Which bike do you think is the best all-rounder for touring with the odd bit of forest roads / green lanes?
the video quality should be better :/
all those angles but we end up seeing pixelation/noise
Great video John. I love this bike and possibly my next purchase, in sapphire black too. Best video I’ve seen of the Rally pro, including mine (at Moto Mogul on TH-cam). Funny that you made the same noise as me when you gave it the beans! 😂
Thanks Anthony 👍
Hi guys....i need help. almost impossible to test ride the tiger 900's in san diego. I would love to have your feedback as to what bike to buy. Im 62, 6ft 1/2 with long arms. 34 ins inseam. 99% road rider light gravel etc. No heavy offroad. Love long distance riding on smaller side roads and some highway if necessary. Bike History: Ducati enduro multistrada 1290. 8000 miles. found it too heavy and top heavy. after that 1250 gs 2019. rode for 6000 miles. Loved it. ergonomically perfect. I wanted a lighter bike similar to 1250 - as i travel mostly alone and wanted something I could easily handle. Then KTM 890 adventure. 2021. rode it 3000 miles. terrible sitting position. Felt cramped. Gave me back muscle issues. stopped riding it. Im deciding between tiger 900 gt pro or rally pro. I test rode the tiger 850 - dealer told me same ergonomics as 900 gt pro. It felt good. I cant get a rally pro to test ride. 1. I dont care about power - 900 cc is more then enough. I care about ergonomics. and wind protection. longer rides over many days. Does the rally pro feel more top heavy then GT pro? I felt good with the Center of gravity on the 850 - is the rally pro and gt pro same in terms of center of gravity - or does the rally feel more top heavy? I read that the handlebars on rally are wider slightly...is it? I want to replicate my 1250 gs sitting position in a lighter bike. Any suggestions please ? Thank you for taking the time....:)
Would you buy this version instead of the GT Pro if primarily you would be driving the roads 90% of the time? Just don’t like any of the GT Pro colour schemes tbh…
What about the vibration problems with this bike?
you sold me chops " Nice between the legs"
Great vid chops ,just a shame it's a fugly bike imho .
Most adventure bikes are
Top notch stuff LCR. Any news on the Ducati rebuild or have you sold it? 🙃
No news.... still waiting for heads and Toine is ignoring me 😵
Ah mate that is terrible news. Let's hope he gets in contact soon. Take care buddy!
What's happened to womble these days, should of had him on one with you off road for the crash footage.
Yes hes around but very busy these days 😥
Those f’in pheasants 😂
Me love me some lamb chops.
Your idea of vibration and mine must differ chopsy. The new 900 are very vibey. Wouldn’t stop me buying one but gets annoying after 20mins.
Remember I ride a 700cc single 😂
Good fair review 👍
Would be Great if someone would build a big Adv bike without all the electronics... they are a disaster for the guy that will own one 4yrs down the line & for any serious globe trotter...🤟
What electronics don't you want. Have you looked at the base spec f850gs. It even has clocks with needles and in the beginning it even had a halogen headlight. I think they dropped it in the UK and the LED unit became standard. I bet the basic crl1100L has minimal electronics
@@chrishart8548 Not from looking at Honda's site - all models have the same 6-axis IMU etc. Not sure if there are different modes between the adventure and tourer but both have the full package and display. The only difference is the Electronic Suspension option on the top Adventure Sports.
@@stevebolton8471 I don't like the sound of a 6-axis imu I would give that a miss
Maybe the motoguzzi would suit you?
@@bonnevillebagger9147
Lovely bike but don’t think it could take the abuse..👍😂
Optional bird deflectors?
Needed them that day!

Great review, don’t have a adventure bike but all makes sense,too many people seem to get gs but really too big for off roading. May as well ride. My hog lol 😂 well maybe not 😏. 😎🏍💨💨💨💨👍🏻🇨🇦
